Kanada Kev Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 http://daily.stanford.edu/article/2006/10/6/downloadFestival I was following the above link referencing Jerry Garcia. It was from a review for a festival called Download 2006. There was a description of a band: ... Equipped with an awesome guitarist who resembles a black Jerry Garcia, and another who insisted on hanging a wind chime from the frets of his Les Paul, TVOR ... I HAD to look this band up. TV on the Radio. Haven't listened to any of them yet, but take a look at this dude. He could be Jerry's black brother! Here's their homepage: http://www.tvontheradio.com/ Later . . .

bradm Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 He may look like Jerry, but his playing is radically different, to say the least.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chameleon Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 That's crazy he looks like black Jerry from say 72-74ish.Wierd. I always knew Jerry had too much soul for a white guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 I am just catching on to these guys. Not sure how I feel just yet but can say they are very very different than much of what I've heard before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 I always knew Jerry had too much soul for a white guy.Must be that Irish in him. Do you not get it, lads? The Irish are the blacks of Europe. And Dubliners are the blacks of Ireland. And the Northside Dubliners are the blacks of Dublin. So say it once, say it loud: I'm black and I'm proud.

zero Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 From Chives vs. Kung bout 2 (Beards and Haircuts).Chiveswhy does every gay sucky band these days features at least one jerk with a beard and 'indie' haircut. *(The only exception to this is TVOTR - that dude's beard is soooo big and shit and it looks like he'd have it band or not, plus they rule, so that's okay.)
