dave-O Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 Another interesting addition. Say what you want, but I'm excited about the Lips and TMBG.
zimmerman pt3 Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 They Might Be Giants, eh? I call a "Particle-Man-Jam"
Booche Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 "Say what you want..........." This had better be good stuff. I have been shooting my mouth off since last September, and someone might make me look bad. With all the killer lineups at festivals this summer, I might look like a cheater. I am going to have ALOT more to say to you DaveO, in about 15 minutes.
bradm Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 Does it seem like there's a conscious effort on the part of moe.down organizers to include more in the way of pure (if somewhat "underground") "pop" acts? (This isn't a complaint; in fact, it might be good for both the acts, and the fans.) quote:From "Birdhouse In Your Soul" by TMBG: There's a picture opposite me Of my primitive ancestry Which stood on rocky shores And kept the beaches shipwreck-free While I admire that a lot I'd be fired if that were my job After killing Jason off And countless screaming Argonauts Aloha, Brad
Phunky Cauldron Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 I love the Umphrey's. The whole lineup looks sweet so far though. I hope that the schedule works out as far as second stage bands go.
Tungsten Gruvsten Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 Ok, so i've liked Moe for all of 2 months now....BUT I've been a Flaming Lips fan for 4 or 5 years.....and more importantly it's been 13 years since I bought TMBG 'Flood' on cassette.. Pretty soon they are going to have to announce ABBA and Neil Diamond to fill the void left in bands from my childhood.... I was scared TMBG was going the way of Devo-doing sound for picture and TV and that's it...nice to hear they can still pull off some shows. If anyone hasn't heard it, the TMBG "John Henry" album rocks. "Destination:Moon" is one of the smartest songs ever.
Stapes Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 No shit. TMBG is one of my secret pleasures. They are one of those bands that I've always wanted to see. Been listining to them 12 years. well they say good things come in three's and so far there are 2 off the wall bands... Bring on the Ween!!!
Velvet Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 I think I can sing along with every world of Flood, and I now boast four TMBG studio albums in my cd collection. I'll be the freak screaming along with: "Now, it's over, I'm dead and I haven't done anything that I want, or I'm still alive, and there's nothing I want to do!" I came back as a bag of groceries... This is gonna be serious fun.
Tungsten Gruvsten Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 k velvet, stapes, we are gonna be a frinking drunken choir!! I don't memorize lyrics very often, but I know almost all of the TMBG ones....tee hee. Also, I'm pretty sure it's the whip-crack in "Minimum Wage" that sparked my interest in sound...funny i was just thinking about that the other day. Velvet: Hound stapes for that bootleg I gave him-studio show from 94 that's wicked! A TMBG admission: I once lost my phone priveleges for a month because I called the NY number that used to play a song....4 times. During the day. duh. Good God is this gonna be fun!!!
Mr. Musicface Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 TMBG rocks! I'm seriously reconsidering if I can make it to moe.down now, althought I think it'll still be a stretch. Anyway, I'll be seeing moe. in a few hours with DMB. Peace, Mr. M.
bouche Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 hey, can someone hook a mafu@ker up over here nowamsane?
Tungsten Gruvsten Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 Bouche-I gave a SBD radio show to Stapes...i'm pretty sure it went to his brother....You need to hear it!!
bouche Posted June 20, 2003 Report Posted June 20, 2003 That sounds like a hoook-up! STAPES, you're my bitch! www.tmbg.com is a great site!
