I have a feeling Luke is a fan of this French film directing legend, Jean-Luc Godard:

Theme: Songs With a Question Mark(s) in the Title 1. Flaming Lips - Do You Realize?? 2. Alice in Chains - Would? 3. Frank Zappa - Why Does It Hurt When I Pee? 4. The Roots - Do You Want More?!?!?!? 5. Ween - Mister, Would You Please Help My Pony? 6. The Sadies - Why Be So Curious? 7. Rheostatics - What's Going on Around Here? 8. Culture Club - "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?" 9. Marvin Gaye - What's Goin' On? 10. Funkadelic - Mommy, What's A Funkadelic? 11. 12.

I'm thinking Robert Randolph and even the fading Ben Harper should be on the list. And so should Mr. Junior Brown.

Since virtually everyone on the list is in the rock realm, I think it matters with Cline.

The only thing about Cline is that the list listed Wilco. Not too many in the mainstream would know him before he joined the band. And I don't think he cops Television licks per say. He channels Television's attitude and aggression and infuses those traits into his instrumental breaks.

I think Mayer can go either way music career wise. He wants his heroes to like and respect him but has the draw of the chicks to contend with, and chicks don't dig the guitar solo.

Dudes, as I mentioned earlier, the list is in NO ORDER. I have no problem with the rather large-headed well-publicized male-slut making the list. He has some good chops for a cocky music school college grad. I think he could have stood a chance with all the greats you mentioned, but he fails them when it comes to ingenuity and originality. However Big Bill Broonzy and Tommy Johnson would have laughed at him.

Luther is far from a master slide player, but he has a nice rambuncious style. As a standard lead player he's more of a poor man's Dickey Betts via Junior Kimbrough. I'm actually more impressed with Cody Dickenson as a musician. My only criticism of the inclusion of Nels Cline is that he hasn't been with Wilco long enough. He's walking inside some pretty big footsteps Wico-wise, including Jeff Tweedy's. Still, Nels can rip the strings off his guitar with taste and dexterity.

1. Dire Straits - Down to the Waterline 2. Melissa Ethridge - Bring Me Some Water 3. Louis Armstrong - Up the Lazy River 4. TLC - Waterfalls 5. The Who - Drowned 6. Deep Purple - Smoke on the Water 7. Slowcoaster - Drink the Water from the Palm of My Hand 8. Led Zeppelin - The Rain Song 9. 10. 11. 12.

St. Patrick's Day

This may be the drunkest concert of the year. Look at the date one more time.

I'm pretty sure Mr. Deaner has made several lists in the past. How could that crazy fucker not?

Where's the Jimmy Herring love?

I believe Scofield and Ribot have made several RS Guitar lists in the past. Better yet, where the fuck is Buckethead?!!

new list: songs that you want to hear at Roo 07 (based on the new lineup) 1. Flaming Lips - Ego Tripping at the Gates of Hell 2. Ball & Biscuit - The White Stripes

I know I can't add two into a list, so could someone add Maggot Brain as the #12. It's a perfect capper.

I think it's the same list from this earlier post: http://www.jambands.ca/sanctuary/showtopic.php?tid/238080/tp/1/

I'll never tire of Derek. In fairness, The Allstars first album was fantastic, thanks in-full to it being full of covers by Junior Kimbrough and R.L. Burnside etc...

Apparently RS hasn't been listening to the last three brutal North Mississippi Allstars' albums.

This faded magazine lists 20 new-ish guitar gods(at least new to most "Greatest Guitarist" lists). The players are in no order. I included a link to the Derek Trucks interview: 1. John Mayer 2. Derek Trucks 3. John Frusciante - Red Hot Chili Peppers 4. Luther Dickinson - North Mississippi Allstars 5. Nels Cline - Wilco 6. Warren Haynes - Allman Brothers Band, Gov't Mule 7. Jim James & Cark Broemel - My Morning Jacket 8. Adam Jones - Tool 9. Kaki King 10. Mike McCready & Stone Gossard - Pearl Jam 11. Tom Morello - Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave 12. Ed O'Brien & Jonny Greenwood - Radiohead 13. Omar Rodriguez-Lopex - Mars Volta 14. Matt Pike - Sleep, High On Fire 15. Jack White - White Stripes, Raconteurs 16. Chuck Garvey & Al Schnier - Moe

I think so. They also have a new album due to drop June 14th.

I think the Jacket will be there. At least that's the buzz on their forum.

A fantastic guitarist and songwriter. He was in Fairport Convention and put out some phenominal albums with his then wife Linda in the 70's. He was also one of Nick Drake's few friends. AMG does a great job on his bio and album reviews.

There's lots of good acts booked, but I really like seeing these artists included in the line-up: The Hold Steady, The White Stripes, Tool, Clutch, Ween, Wolfmother, The Lips, The Black Keys, Richard Thompson, Feist, The National, Wilco and oh yeah, The Police. And then there's Franz Ferdinand.

Theme: songs about spacemen 1. Jimmy Swift Band - Astronauts attempting to take off their spacesuits so that they may copulate 2. Jimi Hendrix Experience - Third Stone From The Sun 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.
