It looks like:

http://www.phishsanctuary.com/weblog/nerolog.htm

is auto-forwarding me to:

http://www.phishsanctuary.com/weblog/nerolog_archive.htm

which is the page with the problem. I'm using Netscape (on both Solaris and WindowsNT, and both have the problem).

I managed to read by pressing "Back" and *very* quickly pressing "Stop", so at least I read it, but I'd like to know what's wrong (and where).

Aloha,

Brad

When I click on the link, I get the nerolog web page for about a second, and then it gets replaced by a "Page Not Found" error. (Is the nerolog trying to load up something that isn't there?)

Aloha,

Brad

Harpua (or anybody else): If you've got one (I don't), see if you can bring a portable board to Dekcuf tomorrow night; we might be able to play a few games up behind the velvet rope while GTB is setting up.

Aloha,

Brad

Worked fine for me.

I wonder if we could enter next year's contest, and make a sculpture of, oh, I don't know...something with an intricate/fractal structure, a lot of detail, and kind of "floral"...sort of like Indica's avatar...

Aloha,

Brad

What's the difference between a musician and a large pizza?

A large pizza can feed a family of four.

What do you call a guy who hangs around with a bunch of musicians?

A drummer.

How can you tell there's a drummer at your door?

The knocking gets faster.

Why are jokes about drummers so lame?

So the bass player can understand them.

How many record producers does it take to change a light bulb?

Don't ask *me*.

How many promoters does it take to change a light bulb?

I'll get back to you on that.

How many guitar players does it take to change a light bulb?

One hundred. One to change the light bulb, and 99 to stand around and argue that Steve Vai could do it better.

Aloha,

Brad

It finally looks like the Fan Boy in me can finally succomb the effects of GAS (Guitar Acquisition Syndrome):

I wonder: if we got one for Dave, would he use it on stage? Maybe to play the Star Wars theme?

Brad

I've been going to bed entirely too early the last few nights; it's time to decorate time. See y'all there.

Aloha,

Brad

I followed the link to the main Fernandes page (where the display the full set of models, not just the two displayed on Harmony Central), and they don't have any basses.

Write 'em! If they get enough demand, they might start making basses.

Aloha,

Brad

IIRC:

Jack Feeney's (Lincoln Heights) is Thursdays

Cajun Attic is also Thursdays

The Bayou is Wednesdays

I'm sure there are more; you might hit http://www.ottawaxpress.ca and check the Music Listings.

Edit your profile and include the quote in your signature.

Good luck, guys. Can we expect some NeroLogs from the road? And, if possible, pictures and sound bites? A musically-enhanced slide show at Dekcuf when you get back would be cool...

Aloha,

Brad

Also, be aware of what the agency is allowed and *not* allowed to do. A quick Google search on "collection agencies" (restricted to Canadian sites) turned up:

http://www.cbs.gov.on.ca/mcbs/english/2692_3ea.htm

which has advice, and a list of things an agency isn't allowed to do.

Good luck.

Aloha,

Brad

Just for that, I'm putting a band together called "Recycle Bin" (which will probably only play covers...).

Aloha,

Brad

re: Fishbone. Agreed. *Intense*. I've seen them at Porter Hall, and at Barrymore's, and was blown away both times. I'd love to see them again.

Blane: I checked http://www.fishbone.net/tournews.html and it only has dates for Feb. and Mar., but no listing for Montreal. Where/when are they playing?

Aloha,

Brad

P.S. Their new EP (featuring George Clinton and Buckethead!) is out as of about now, according to the site.

Thanks, guys. I wasn't so much interested in trading it as burning to CD for a friend or two who don't really do the download/SHN/MP3 thing (so they wouldn't be making any copies of it).

I think I'll wait until I get SHNs of the show before burning it, though, just for the better quality.

Aloha,

Brad

P.S. I'm almost at the end of listening to it, and this show is a *great* one. I'd love to have been there (or at any show where this kind of thing happens). Thanks, Bouche.

I'm almost finished downloading it right now, and I'm just about halfway through listening to Disc1 even as I type.

Bouche: I notice that the download is split up into d1/d2/d3; does this mean it's tradeable, even though it's a show of MP3s?

Aloha,

Brad

Let's just try to imagine the competition in the bathroom the next morning..."3...2...1...GO!!!!"

I think there was a problem with Harpua's original post: the "," was included in the URL. If you go to

http://www.burtneilson.com/

it seems to work OK.

a) I actually like walking a lot. It may not be the best way to get between places/cities, but once you're in a place/city, it's a great way to get to see what's there.

I did a month in Europe in Sept./Oct., and it was a blast (do a Sancutary search on "foreign correspondence" for some of my reports from the field). I also did two weeks in Japan (with my brother, who lives there), and it was almost as cool.

c) One afternoon in Toulouse, France (which will show up in the search mentioned above) just about blew my circuits. It made me realize that, rather than me coincidentally finding magical stuff, there's magical stuff happening all over the place, and I just have to get tuned into it.

Aloha,

Brad

Are we limited to trios that haven't played together before? If not, I'd love to hear Jeff Beck / Terry Bozzio / Tony Hymas do more, especially with Jeff Beck's moves into techno/jungle.

Aloha,

Brad

P.S. How about *strange* trios: three of the same instrument, trios with vocals, etc.

Piano: Thelonious Monk

Tenor Sax: John Coltrane

Drums: Tony Williams

Aloha,

Brad

I've never heard of them, let alone heard them. Can you give a bit more info for the great uninformed masses? Style? Whenceforth they came? Lineup?

ALoha,

Brad

Sounds like fun. I only know the Bowies from Defunkt (whom I also saw at the Mercury a couple of years ago, coincidentally), but from hearing Lester, they strike me as the Real Deal.

See y'all there.

Aloha,

Brad
