    5 disc rotation.

    Elvis Costello - North Rickie Lee Jones - self-titled Talking Heads - The Name Of This Band Is Talking Heads Pink Floyd - The Wall George Harrison - All Things Must Pass
  2. Les Stroud is a fascinating guy and "Survivorman" is riveting television. I only wish he had more new episodes but I suppose it is asking a lot. I get to watch but he actually has to do it! Thanks for the heads-up.
  3. In honour of SYB's last gig, I shall premiere an exciting new shirt tonight!
  4. yes, here's the cooch in question folks! (nsfw?)
  5. and what in the hell is wrong with that? Green Onion ROCKS! easy there Gumby. I also have an appreciation for the onion that is green (or scallion, if you will). I just don't like eating an egg salad sandwich and still tasting green onions four hours later.

    Losin' it!

    StoneMtn just got piss drunk!!! YES!!!
  7. actually, all kidding aside, I think it was a revealing interview and I respect The Slip for pursuing their vision even if it alienates their core base. The writer may be at times petty but most of his criticisms are spot on.
  8. Some good ideas here but I wouldn't use green onion. It kinda takes over.
  9. You'll do fine Deeps. Just take your pants off and relax.
  10. If I remember correctly, this one has a particularly indulgent and psychedelic "Playin In The Band" for the period. Fine show.
  11. [color:purple]It's gonna be ok though because jam-heads are known for their thick skins in the face of criticism! :: paints fingernails black ::

    DSO

    I really don't see what the size of the promoter's wang has to do with getting DSO up here. Take a time out or we'll ban you from the board!

    It's like musical re-gifting.

    Imagine if a group of otherwise anonymous actors decided to recreate every episode of M*A*S*H* and you were charged $25 per episode to watch. Occasionally Jamie Farr makes an appearance to reprise his old role.
  15. good, good. thank you.
  16. just a heads-up - their myspace page lists a Fat Cats gig at The Mansion House on December 15th. Having said that it is not on their website nor do I think good ole' Josh has listed it here. So who knows? That's the word though! I know St. Kitts doesn't get a whole lotta shows. so here's one for ya maybe!
  17. and Luke, I think you need to update your avatar. It's been a red "X" for me for a week or so now. Just so ya know buddy.
  18. I gotta say that Jimmy McDonough's "Shakey" (re: Neil Young) sets the standard for rock bio for me. If you;re a music fan in general, it's an illuminating look at one of rock's most contrary and fascinating figures. If you're a Neil Young fan, it's absolutely essential. I am currently reading "Here There and Everywhere" by Geoff Emerick, who was hired in 1962 by EMI - at the age of 17 - to engineer their new act from Liverpool. He stuck with them on and off until the end - and Paul McCartney afterwards. It's a compelling - if even-handed - account of what it meant to be a studio employee in the 1960's and demonstrates the symbiosis between the musicians on the studio floor and the brains behind the scenes in the control room, as modern rock as we know it took shape. Any new persprective on the Beatles is welcomed by me, and this is a on-the-ground account of some of rock's most important moments. Just read his account of the Revolver > Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane > Sgt Peppers sessions to see what I mean.
