Kitari Posted February 19, 2003 Report Posted February 19, 2003 Pine Mountain Railroad, a quintet armed with guitar, mandolin, fiddle, banjo, upright bass and spot-on harmonies behind the lead vocals of Whaley, who also writes the bulk of the band's bluegrass material. "Our best stuff," Whaley casually offers, "is hard-drivin', smack-you-in-the-face, fast-paced bluegrass music." So bluegrass fans, don't stop believin'. PINE MOUNTAIN RAILROAD - Where: Ottawa Police Association Hall, 141 Catherine St. - When: Monday, 8 p.m., $18 advance, $20 at the door.

greasemonkey Posted February 19, 2003 Report Posted February 19, 2003 You would have to start believing in order to stop believing. Those BGH folk are only in it for the publicity. Bunch of wanna-be hippies. If you ask me those guys suck rocks. Well ok...maybe there not that bad
Kitari Posted February 19, 2003 Author Report Posted February 19, 2003 Hey Greasy, you in for Saturday night shinanigans for Dana's birthday?

bradm Posted February 19, 2003 Report Posted February 19, 2003 I predict minimal setbreak festivities at the Ottawa show... ALoha, Brad
DevO Posted February 19, 2003 Report Posted February 19, 2003 LOL By the way, does anyone know whereabouts Woodslee is?
Guest Low Roller Posted February 19, 2003 Report Posted February 19, 2003 Why I'm reminded of this, I'm not sure: Homer: Up and away in my beautiful my beautiful motor boat! Da da da da! Bart: But we didn't enter any police raffle. Homer: That doesn't matter, the important thing is we won. [parks] Marge: I don't know, there's something very peculiar about this! Homer: Sheesh! You're the most paranoid family I've ever been affiliated with. [gets out] Homer: I'd like a yellow boat please, with extra motors. Snake: Yo! No cuts bro! Where's my motor boat pig? Wiggum: Right through that door [he laughs. Snake enters we hear screams.] Wiggum: Alright, Simpson, Homer. Your'e next. Homer: Wohoo! [goes through] Howdy gents. I'm hear to collect my free... [they get him] Oh, oh, my boating arm. What's going on? Wiggum: Your'e under arrest slimebag, what's this punk in here for Lou? Lou: 235 unpaid parking tickets, totalling $175. Wiggum: I hope you brought you're check book, wiseguy. Homer: [gets it out his back pocket.] You lousy cops. Lucky for you I'm double parked. [gives him check] Now, can I please have my motor boat? % Within no time, our favorite family are driving home. Homer isn't happy about what happened, and seems to be giving everyone the silent treatment. Bart: Dad, why arn't you saying anything? Where's our motorboat? Homer: I didn't like it. The mast had termites. Lisa: Why would a motor boat have a mast? Homer: Because... the thingy was... shut up! (I love that Simpson archive link above!)
Kitari Posted February 19, 2003 Author Report Posted February 19, 2003 I'm still talking with Dana through email to figure out the fine details. I'll post on the Scank when we've got a concrete plan. And I'm sure she'll call you when she gets home to give you the low-down too! Just keep Saturday night open for now!
MoMack Posted February 19, 2003 Report Posted February 19, 2003 Is that band some serious good bluegrass or what? I might check out the Kingston show...?
Davey Boy 2.0 Posted February 19, 2003 Report Posted February 19, 2003 quote: Originally posted by Tooly: its even got a harp on teh backside you could do some serious jammin with that thing how much? 10K? well Tooly, if you're looking for someone to be on your back all the time, harping away, I think I may have a candidate fer ya. won't cost you anywhere near ten grand either (unless you look at long-term expenses) kidding.
Booche Posted February 19, 2003 Report Posted February 19, 2003 Hey MoMack, if you are referring to BGH, then the answer is no. If you are referring to the band above, I have no idea. They promo themselves like they are good.........
Kitari Posted February 20, 2003 Author Report Posted February 20, 2003 See Dr. Hux, these guys have a mandolin and a guitar and they get along just fine! What went so wrong with BGH...?
Hux Posted February 20, 2003 Report Posted February 20, 2003 I've never heard of a Mandolin, is it some sort of East Indian instrument....?? We have that freeee-aky, "mini-guitar" (shudder) Jeee-sus, that thing freaks me out - the elephant man of the instrument world.....
bradm Posted February 20, 2003 Report Posted February 20, 2003 No, this is the Elephant Man of the instrument world: By comparison, that mini-geetar you guys use is the Mouse Man of the instrument world. Aloha, Brad
Guest Low Roller Posted February 20, 2003 Report Posted February 20, 2003 How the fuck do you play that thing? Is this the instrument of choice of Shiva, the six-armed Indian godess? And yes, thanks to a secret source, I can pretty much confirm that the mini-guitar and mandoline are one and the same.
Tooly Posted February 20, 2003 Report Posted February 20, 2003 nice axe bradm its even got a harp on teh backside you could do some serious jammin with that thing how much? 10K?
bradm Posted February 20, 2003 Report Posted February 20, 2003 Ask Pat Metheny; he had it built for him by Canadian luthier Linda Manzer. Aloha, Brad
Hux Posted February 20, 2003 Report Posted February 20, 2003 You'd have to take time off work to re-string that sucker....
Booche Posted February 20, 2003 Report Posted February 20, 2003 I think a mandolin is known as such when the mandolin player knows how to play one, else, its a 'mini-guitar' I think I am serious too..................
