Pretty good keys player and a REALLY good guitarist. It was great hearing the band jam on that instramental section. I could do my Morrison impression and hold onto the mike stand and writhe about on the floor. My YEAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! was outstanding.....LOL!

Next stop - Jethro Tull on Thursday. Hope they mix it up a little - the last several years have been kind of stale.

What size venue????? I saw them in a 500 -1000 seater a year or so back and it was definitely better than the Hammersmith show last time. The also played most of "Stand up" which was cool. Enjoy the gig and report back, eh?

This is the end.......my only friend, the End

Tull
Wil be seeing them in an ampitheatre (a few thousand, I think) in Northern VA, that usually hosts folky-type rock. I did see Yes about three years ago there and they did Ritual and Gates - outstanding!

They have really been hitting Stand Up a lot the last several years - no problem there. It's just they used to throw in a forgotten gem each time, and I wish they would just trash Budapest. Like the Camera Eye by Rush, good for a few tours but just too in concert.

Mother - yes son - I want to aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Totally agree about Budapest. They could drop that for a decade or so and do Wind up instead.

Wind-Up
I saw them do that twice, once on Veterans Day 1987 during a 8-inch snowfall, and once a few years ago. The 1987 night they also played Dun Ringill, which is a good example of the unexpected tune they roll out every once in a while.

Neil Young
Tom Petty
Journey
The Beatles
Simon & Garfunkel


Guilty Pleasures

the Guess Who/BTO
Mary-Chapin Carpenter
Parliament
Pearl Jam
-some 60s oldie rock

hell . . .
My whole music collection is one big guilty pleasure.

This weekend I'm of to Lollapalooza in San Antonio. The weekend after that, it's Motorhead, Dio, and Iron Maiden (kickass!). I'm definitely not all prog.

Of course, if your talking about albums:

Madonna - Ray Of Light (maybe it's just orbit's influence but this album is great)
Billy Joel - Greatest Hits 1 & 2
Anything by Weird Al (the last one even had a Zappa style-parody)

Those are just a few examples . . .

Yeah, I saw your post. Man, I cannot wait for that show. Of course, I can't wait to Queens Of the Stone Age tomorrow.

Has this ever happened to you?
You're groovin to some cool jazz on the radio, thinking "Wow this is pretty cool", and the DJ comes on and says "That was Kenny G..."
Man, I hate when that happens.

Night Flight
An old show on network TV, late Friday night, 1980something - Jamming out to a band trading leads, just gettin'it - after 10 minutes, the singer goes "I want you to want me"

OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had to throw myself in the wash!

Reviving a post
I'm listening to Extreme's "3 sides to Every Story". Like them or not, the musicianship is top-notch. I have their sophmoric first record, but Pornografitti, this one, and Waiting For The Punchline kick some serious ass. It's too bad Cherone had to join Van Helpless. A certain career-killer.

I've also seen them twice, and they were awesome.

My ears hurt!!!!!
Wading through my Vinyl collection yesterday I found "Scum" and "The Peel Sessions" by Napalm Death.

What state of mind was I in when I got those for Christ's sake????

30 second songs and ear bashing guitars.........ye Gods!!!!

Back to the Barry Manilow I think.

Mr. Waye and Mr. Manilow
I'm not sure if it's this post, but our English friend has indeed professed his affection for Doris Day and and Big-nose Barry.

Resurrection............
I won't tell you what pdj just admitted in the shout box........... but:

I think ABC were a classic of their era.

And I still enjoy a bit of 70s disco from time to time...mainly at weddings. Yes, I'm that embarrasing uncle who dances.
