  3. If you're in the area and don't mind good soul reggae danceable stuff. The maybe you'll be able to join the Baudelaires for a lovely evening. Meet The Baudelaires . Cover is 5 bucks. Should be fun. Deeps
  4. Interestingly enough I know for a fact that MarcO is hopped up on a chocolate waterfall, capable of a dangerous mustache, and is staring down the barrel of 6 pork chop sandwiches in the coming week. Parallel Selleck Universe Wormhole
  5. Happy Birthday sister. I will be referring to you as the phonetically different Ed-Ger from this point on. Enjoy.

    The Warped 45s

    Really great band. They were voted in as NxNE's fan choice award. The Country rock Band I have going called The Ragged Bankers opened for them in Guelph 2 weeks ago. Their live show lived up to the recordings. Great harmonies and a cousin to cousin hand-off of vocal duties on a number of tracks. They covered "If I had a Boat" by Lyle Lovett which I loved. I recommend checking them out if you are able. Steve
  7. Can't see image rrrrrrrrrr :susel:
  8. The headline itself is insane ... [color:purple]Talk about value added reporting! I'm not Muslim and I'm completed fucking irate over this. This scandal on the heals of the Blackwater independent security force scandal where their leader essentially admitted to engaging in armed conflict in the name of God, is a little unbearable.

    yayyyyyy God

    It really is interesting to see the extreme degradation that comes from some of those who have belief in a god that deems theirr natural human impulses to be carnal sins. My father always refers to the hipocrasy he witnessed when pious church goers would step out from under the steeple onto the church lawn and immediately begin gossiping about how unholy the others in the congregation were. I think this obsessive focus on judgement in the eyes of god prevents some from being able to judge themselves anymore. It's a twisted paradox that keeps playing out; in varying degrees obviously and though it is only the extreme cases like the one we see here that make the headlines it should not be underestimated how pervasive and acidic this cultural aspect of Belief can be.
  16. I apologize for the crapping in your ears that is about to ensue. I especially like the Orange douches in the B4-4 clip. Definitely not the Teen hits of the Beatles
  17. Ditto. I have met about 20 people on the board in real llife. it helps when you have a gig in their town mind you :-)
  18. I am playing keys in the Baudelaires. We are an up tempo Reggae band. Should be a nice daytime set and only my second go @ playing keys for an entire set live.
  19. Sorry to have missed you in Guelph Rev. Some friends that I hadn't seen years showed and we ended up getting drunk at a kitchen table. Good luck. Deeps

    I'm a Free Man

    Good job Luke. Look forward to seeing you again sometime. Steve
  21. I say thank god someone is. Rock and roll is rooted in the preacher to congregation call and response and to me too many jambands have taken this out of the mix opting for an introverted approach that can at times be frustrating. You listen to Phish in interviews for instance and these are sharp individuals who have interesting viewpoints' date=' and sometimes I want to hear from the artists and not just have the abstraction of their music speak for them. Just my .02. [/quote'] I think preaching and good songwriting are two entirely different things. Both convey a message, both have the potential to impart their little pearls of wisdom, and I suppose both can be powerful. I 'tend' to personally prefer messages that can be interpreted in many different ways, depending on who you are, space, time, etc. Having said that, I also like a hard-hitting song that just lays it on the line (if what is being laid down is something interesting to chew on). To me The Hold Steady's song "guys go for looks but women go for status" came off as one big cliche, and didn't offer up anything particularly innovative that I hadn't thought about before. I don't think the melody that accompanied that message made up for this in any way. Although I am sure they have better songs if someone wanted to point me towards them. I can't help but feel it's the delivery and not the content that's freaking you out, and my opinion is that this delivery is quite overdue, as I am tiring of the enigma that a lot of the Jambands have created, it's actually pretty prevelant in the indie scene too. I say, listen I've got a boring job and I'm out on the weekend fill me up with energy and leave your passive nature for the afternoon set that I'll skip at some festival.
