  1. ^^ Yeah i guess they are adding a bit each day. I assume it will eventually be a full video.........
  2. Did Elvis even write a song?? Honestly does anyone know if he did? For some reason I don't think so. He did end up with a few writing credits' date=' but I think those were from publishing negotiations and I don't think he actually did any "writing" of the songs. I don't really care for the "He didn't write anything" slam on Elvis anyway. The idea of a musician having to write all of his own material to have any credibility is a relatively new phenomenon (late 60s, at any rate) and before that it was pretty much given that songwriting and performance were separate. [/quote'] Yeah I agree. It doesn't change the effect Elvis had thats for sure. To my knowledge it wasn't actually until The Beatles that artists had more than 1 or 2 originals on each album, if that.

  4. Just came across this little teaser. Sounds cool, I think they're adding a bit more each day or something but dont quote me on that...... http://www.beastieboys.com/
  5. Good book. I've read it a couple times......
  6. I don't know if I'll ever be able to kill a bee again...........
  7. Long Live Vinyl!! I just got Farmhouse on vinyl a couple weeks ago...........
  8. Really? How do you save vids from Youtube (or do I really want to know, nobody would see me for a few weeks!)

    Worst Venues?

    Operahouse. Nothing like being crammed like a sardine trying to sway back and forth out of sync with a hundred other people in front of you so you can catch 0.3 seconds of stage view every 4.5 seconds. Than when you need a drink........... I'm not as bitter as I sound but I am serious.......
  10. Why not make it post 336 just for the hell of it!
  11. Just thought i'd throw this out there. I went last summer and took a 6 week guitar building course on Vancouver Island with Adam Johnson and built and designed my acoustic from scratch (which you can see on the services page). He got his site up and running and i thought I'd share. Take a look at some of the guitars and basses he's done, they're wicked. Oh and Ben Payne (dr. payne and the disease) who is playing this weekend at the march in Toronto had his guitar built by Adam. You'll see it on the site. http://www.marshguitarworks.com Let me know what you think.
  12. Any and all John Butler Trio that I can get my hands on.
  13. Yeah never mind what I said earlier. I just got 2 for GA floor myself off their website. Thanks for the heads up. Ever since I bought Beck tix the moment they went on sale and ended up about as far away from the stage as possible only to find out they put the floor tix on sale a week before the show I've been reluctant to jump the gun. Cant wait for this show!
  14. Yeah everytime I buy tickets right when they go on sale I get screwed into sort of good seats. Than a few weeks before the show they start selling the floor seats!! I hate that. I think I'll wait until closer to the show.
  15. I have a Turser acoustic electric that i use to teach lessons. It was $500 so I guess its sort of highend for a Jay Turser. I use it for hours everyday and I've had it for 4 years and haven't had the slightest problem with it. That is after I had to return the one I originally bought because it was screwed but hey. As far as electrics go I don't know.
  16. Truly awesome. I'll hit Toronto, but I don't think I can make the Iqaluit gig. Oh well maybe next time.
  17. Sweet! Looks like another night off work to plan........
  18. "Skeeter was purty durn excited over the new banner!" EDIT: I guess i'll go with this lamer one after reading the rest of the thread. Theres some funny stuff on there!
