you saw it here first folks

i did enjoy seeing a punk rock mohawk hair style on a black man though.

Everytime I saw Ty all I could think of was Angelo Moore of Fishbone.. maybe that's why I was always disappointed with his performances.. I kept expecting some funky reggae Fishbone insanity

I don't think this show is oversaturating the market with INXS publicity - I think, to the contrary, that when a tour is announced (and they did say last night to look out for the "Rock Star" tour coming to a town near you this fall! wow - what a long sentence to place in parantheses eh? holy shit!) it'll do quite well, because people will want to see the newly appointed singer strut their stuff. Look for their next album of original material to disappear without a trace, though.

I got the impression that the "rock star" tour will be of all the others... not INXS.. or maybe all the others as the opening act for INXS.

As for saturating market.. the show is a brilliant way to get a younger "American Idol" generation up to speed on the back catalog of INXS material. I'd say the majority of the people watching the show were in diapers when Kick came out. I could be wrong though, but that's what went through my head.

And as for the album of original material.. my prediction is one or two minor hits (top 20 but not top 5 necessarily) from the first album back.. but that'll be it.

We should start a betting pool

Also, we've got two songs being pumped as big singles now, "Trees" and "Pretty Vegas" (and is it just me or can you totally hear Michael Hutchence singing that song.. I think JD really nailed it out of the park when we came up with lyrics and melody for that song.. in terms of writting an "INXS" song). One of these two songs at least (possibly both of them) are written by someone who will not being going on with INXS. Do you think INXS will buy these songs to put on the next record? Do you think a label will buy these songs to get a currently big time pop band to record them? Do you think a label will put out the song as performed by Marty or JD? Do you think the songs will just disappaear?

yeah.. lots of questions.. sorry.. I should get back to work

but in about 2 minutes it will be over then I think I'll put on

there is one specifically for Ottawa here: http://www.ottawagasprices.com/

don't know if other cities in Ontario (or the rest of Canada) have city specific sites or not

yes.. a giant "huzzah" for all those involved (organizers, bands, bus drivers, last minute volunteers, and everyone who came out and had a great time).

Here's hoping that we'll have a Wakefest 2006!

well personally given the choice between Bernie and Bootsy I'd take Bootsy no contest.. but the three of them would be a funk force the likes of which hasn't been seen in ages

yeah.. both he and Clinton allow taping.. don't know about Bootsy though

man I wish I didn't know about this gig.. it's going to kill me that I won't be able to make it down..

and with my luck soon Maceo and Fred will be added to the bill and then it'll be like a full on Parliament reunion!

here is the poster.. confirming both Bernie Worrell and Bootsy.. Damn I wish it was on a weekend!

The Ticketmaster website says it's Tuesday the 27th of September.. not Thursday the 29th..

And the gig isn't in the "Tour" section of Clinton's website

man.. what kind of festival is this turning into? we've got booty funk bass, a greased up BradM, and horny old ladies.. insane!

If the timing works, maybe we could offer to send over a small acoustic band to entertain people and have a passed hat for donations to be given to their cause.

by which I can only assume you mean...

THE TUMMIES!

I vote Velvet after he's good an liquored!

when I started this thread it wasn't about whether looting was right or wrong or who was doing it or why.. it was about how media can (and does) add subtle racism to their reporting.

just wanted to point that out

I'm pretty sure I'd be looting like crazy. I love to loot!

don't you mean you love to "Find".. you're white remember

oh boy.. this is funny.. and maybe kinda sad.. but funny

http://www.therawker.com/index.html

check the remix with the rawker singing with the high school band.. rawk on rawker!

yeah.. it's crazy eh

one thing though.. in defence of someone I guess.. the clippings are from two different sources... so it's kinda unfair to really say much I suppose..

but that's not nearly as fun

just a clipping from all the fun everyone is having down in New Orleans..

I'm thinking of maybe going out this afternoon and "finding" myself a new stereo or maybe some bass gear

the one they did for starbucks was funny as well: http://www.illwillpress.com/sml.html

and if talking doesn't work.. we can always dig a big pit, put the two of you into it, and the first one to make it out is the winner!

I think we should set this up like a trading tree.. might be easier for everyone no?

jambands.ca as seen through one of those website tranlsators..

I dunno.. made me smile..

KevO.. I'd try my hand at MixMeister if I were you.. it's pretty much drag and drop easy..

the URL is: http://www.mixmeister.com/ (oddly enough)

I've been using it for mix "tapes" (if they are on CD can we still call the mix tapes?) for a few years now.

[color:purple]I would rather watch the one about the 5 former prostitutes starting a cafe.. sounds like it would be full of zany hijinx!

Pretty impressive sight. Actually, that's a pretty ridiculous amount of work.

but aren't you glad that someone did it? espcially for a genre like Electronic music.. where it seems that almost every artist has their own subgenre
