it doesn't??

STOP THE PRESSES! Come to think of it, the theme being "Songs You heard at CTMF this past weekend", all you need is to make sure the song has had an official release, not necessarily by the band who performed it. So the theoretical CD with this theme would have Bob Dylan doing "Gotta Serve Somebody", not Steve Murphy Band. Got it? In this case, "Doobie Break", having never been released officially by anyone would have to go. And unless the DD song is a cover of an otherwise released song (it's not on either of their cd's apparently), it would have to go too. Sorry, this one was confusing. I think the one remaining sticking point is that you would have had to have attended the festival in order to make an entry. If you weren't there, you couldn't have heard a band play any of the songs. That leaves us with 270 Songs You heard at CTMF this past weekend 1. Bob Dylan - Gotta Serve Somebody(Steve Murphy Band) 2. The Grateful Dead - Franklin's Tower (Passenger) 3. United Steel Workers Of Montreal - Ask Me Stay (Dedicated to me!) 4. () Diesel Dog - Ain't Hurtin' Nobody (status pending) 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.

**** edited, see my next post below **** Sorry, just clued in to this mess. This theme could have been played out according to the rules as set out from the beginning but it's clear it's going to be difficult. I am sure that enough of the artists that played this past weekend at CTMF have released albums with tracks that could qualify for the theme, be they originals or covers (remember, "bootleg" style versions are not eligible here, and never have been). So, if the Steve Murphy Band has a CD (I don't know) and they played a song from it at CTMF, then that song can stay on the list. Listing a song they did but have never "released" is ineligible. But unless they only performed that one song for their set, there should be other options available. It's also obvious that for this theme to continue some editing will have to be done to it to make sure it falls within the rules. Part of the challenge of the game as a whole is to make it through the most difficult themes so we can't just abandon the theme, or else we abandon the game as a whole. I say: edit this list to what is applicable to theme. Then, rope in some of those dirty disgusting wookies who went to the festival to apply what's left of their brains to finish the task at hand properly, and then we can move on and pretend this never happened, like the career of the Disco Biscuits. As for who gets to "change" the rules, I'd argue they haven't really changed much since the very beginning, they just needed some clarification from time to time. We're heading towards almost 300 themes now (!) and I don't recall having to correct much as of late, so we're doing good. But it would a nightmare to have everyone changing the rules as they see fit, just to suit their own themes or entries, so I - quite frankly - want the final say on these matters. This theme can be finished, just fix it up and think a little harder about what those bands (who have released material) played! Go, we're almost at #300!!!

The offical rumour is that he had to have his stomach pumped and they brought up a gallon (or some other amount) of semen. Never happened. Surprisingly, His Rodness has since denied this story.

Am I the only one that is totally burnt out on "reunion" talks for any band, let alone LZ? It's like, great - you're going to get back together and make a mint but I can't really think of too many major reunions that actually began to live up to the glories of the past. Of course, they can be serviceable - at $125 a ticket they better be - but only merely so. I'm not trying to be a buzzkill but I just can't see how a Led Zep reunion would provide any more value than just giving thousands of people the chance to say they saw Led Zeppelin. And considering they stopped in 1980, what really is the point in that? Just to check another one off the list? It'll be interesting in 10 years time when all these "heritage" acts finally really do become too old to mine the otherwise floundering arena/amphitheater markets anymore.

I'm happy to see the ass end of this Summer. It's my least favorite season and this wasn't a particularly good one for me.

269 Songs about Displaced Persons 1. The Band - Acadian Driftwood 2. Calexico - Across the wire 3. Ry Cooder - How Can you Keep On Moving (Unless you Migrate too) 4. Sting - Englishman In New York 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.

I'm in the same boat. Not that I agree with the BB proviso. But yeah, good songs last forever. Then there's Guyute, etc. Funny, really the only Phish CD I can still listen to these days is Round Room, and it's probably the one most universally panned by their fanbase. It has good songs.

They remain the only band I've bought a ticket for and then bailed on mid show. Life was way too short to listen to any more of that nonsense!
