Rob Not Bob

That was a great show, Leonard Cohen with Was Not Was and Sonny Rollins doing "Who By Fire" ... Sonic Youth with Daniel Lanois and Indigo Girls doing "I Wanna Be Your Dog". Sadly, Hiram Bullock, their house guitarist, recently passed away

cartoon or real life version with Puddy? that was a great series. Larry Sanders Season One Larry Sanders Season Two Real life with Puddy was fun, but I loved the cartoon. The source of so many of my more surreal quotes ... "Cool, I bought his brain!" "Roof pig! Most unexpected ..."

Best selection ever.

I saw the juice pigs live a few times back in the day. I believe Jim Tavare (the guy with the double bass) has been around a bit longer than Sean, he has been working for ages and has actually had a fair amount of mainstream exposure.

Barry Tashian! He was a part of Emmylou Harris' Hot Band. Hamilton, are you sure we're not the same person?

Great choice.

Alternating between the Magnetic Fields' 3 disc set 69 Love Songs, the Legacy Edition of Dennis Wilson's classic Pacific Ocean Blue and lots 'n' lots of Zappa. Edit : oh and Road Trips 3, which is all kinds of awesome.

kick 'n' a bump

As I have said before, I will believe it when I have it in my hot little hands.

Wow that Fiona is one cool chick! I've always thought so

Yesterday afternoon, I strolled around during the day just catching bits of various sets ... Bushpilots, Tara Holloway, and Silver Creek were all way cool. Almost worth the hideous sunburn I got

if you've got a few minutes to elaborate I'd love to hear more... Well, pardon if I hash some of the details, but ... Belew had worked on recording and touring with Talking Heads for Remain In Light. Weymouth then goes up to Belew and asks him if he is interested in joining Talking Heads as a fifth member, "but don't tell any of the others I mentioned this to you." Later, Jerry Harrison separately mentioned to Belew that they were interested in having him in the band. Following up on this, Belew raises the topic with Tina, but Tina tells him that they don't want him as a fifth member, they wanted him as a fourth member ... replacing David Byrne (no word on whether she had ever mentioned this to the other members of the band.) Belew starts to get a bad feeling about this. On top of this, Robert Fripp has just asked him to join the new lineup of King Crimson, so he has a few things going on at the same time. Around this time, Tina, Adrian and Chris Frantz go down to the Carribbean to work on what would ultimately become the first Tom Tom Club album. Adrian worked extensively on these recordings, including a track called "L'Elephante", where Adrian wrote and played everything. Adrian informed Tina and Chris that he had a commitment to record with Fripp, then make his own solo record, but he would be back in 3 months and then they could finish the record. Tina said sure, they would wait. She didn't wait, and instead brought in her sisters to do vocals and just completed the record. Adrian came back after 3 months to a tape of the completed record. He then found that some of his solos had been erased, and a lot of the riffs he had come up with had been turned into the primary melodies of the songs. Yet when the record did come out, Adrian was not mentioned anywhere in the songwriting credits (including "L'Elephante, which was exclusively his creation). When he tried to address this, Tina said she considered him more of an arranger than a songwriter. Further enquiries and Tina and Chris just stopped returning his phone calls. The first Tom Tom Club album went on to be a substantial club hit and wound up going gold, but Adrian saw no songwriting royalties from it. Belew decided to let it slide (by a lot of reports I have read, Adrian seems to be one of the nicest guys in music) but you know it had to stick in his craw. Adrian Belew ended up deciding to join King Crimson.

ZPZ vs. Steely Dan vs. Richard Thompson is pretty definitive proof that God hates me. That and while Ray Davies and Metric are happening, I will be at Great Big Sea because that is where my high school reunion will be going

I've just finished reading a biography of Talking Heads ... Tina Weymouth fucked over Adrian Belew big time.

So now all of my favorite standup comedians are gone. George Carlin Richard Pryor Bill Hicks Richard Jeni Mitch Hedberg I'm gonna miss George

Tee hee
