Me 2.

Been with GH for a long time, for some reason Shadowlands scratches my prog itch more than anything before or after, go figure.

Enjoyed the Westbury show very much last night, Yes music floats my boat even though the band is now Yes-light, a pox on the crowd who shouted and booed Roger Dean during his pre-show talk, I was...

Four keyboardists, bass and drums was the stage set-up.

One morning your boss of over 40 years rings you up and says "You're fired", nothing amiable about that.

2018? It's been 5 years since I saw you perform on either the Moodies Cruise or CTTE (can't remember which), talk about flying time, wow!

Know how you know you got too much going on? When you reflexively order the new GH CD and realize you haven't even listened to the last one...now where did I put it? Uhh...

Me 2.

Ceilings and floors, friend, ceilings and floors.

It will be the follow-up to their first CSNY-style album released earlier in the year (the cover of the new one resembles the CSNY cover of 50 years ago) not to mention the similar harmonies, I...

Read it twice now, gonna have to charge you for it.

Thanks for the head's up, ordered.

Ian's a genius but definitely not a prospective drinking buddy, even the musos he works with keep their distance, he can be very unpleasant at times, sounds like Ian alright.

Saw them within the past year and was indeed the drummer.

Been to a bajillion concerts, seen everything and everyone (seems that way, anyway), back about 10 or 12 years ago (maybe more) The Guess Who had re-formed (Bachman + Cummings) so wifey and I got tix...

I wonder what people who buy tix to The Guess Who without doing their research think when they show up to find that there's no Burton Cummings or Randy Bachman, the only member of the original band...

For the cheapskates in the audience Import CD's has the CD/DVD version of the box set at $67 USD delivered (including shipping + taxes), Amazon comes to $87 even with free shipping.

Listened to WIL this morning for the first time in forever, the songs were good, the synth sounds didn't bother me considering the time it was recorded but the production was murky as hell, I kept...

Someone said it's $80 on Amazon, I've bought the entire Tull set so far on Import CD's for what I've found is the best price, pretty sure the pattern will continue with this one.

Good things happen to bad people and vice versa, so long as that’s the case I’m not sure what purpose is served by an omnipotent Supreme Being, as a child when I realized that kids got run over...

You can fit my knowledge of religion on the head of a pin but from my limited exposure to Christianity it appears that even though we "are all God's children" if you don't wink back you're screwed,...

Well at MF the operative word is "Fellowship", it's Fellowship this, Fellowship that until someone needs to borrow a fiver when it becomes "bugger off."

When you think that the Creator of the Universe speaks to you, and He's related that if you don't know how to get the Secret Decoder Ring that will ensure your existence forever you're SOL wouldn't...

Which IMHO were the two stand-outs on the rekkid, Spock's minus Neal is like a BLT without the bacon.

Having been late to the party (I got into SB like an hour and a half after Neal upped and left) it was the music that hooked me in. Having been to MF a couple of times it left me wondering how many...

It does to me. :horns

Martin Luther was one of the most virulent anti-Semites of all time (it's said Hitler grafted some of his venom for Jews from ML's teachings) and despite an entire album extolling his virtues there's...

Neal is surely a prog genius to me, he hits all my sweet spots, I love the early solo stuff, SB with Neal, TA, even Testimony and the NMB albums (FC is OK but don't love them) but as someone who has...

Why didn't I think of that?

I'm a little jealous that God has Neal on Speed Dial and I couldn't get his attention if I set myself on fire.

There's no mention of Dave Lambert, Chas Cronk, or Tony Fernandez, maybe DC's pulling a 1980's Ian Anderson on us?

Feel the same way, can listen on Qobuz when it's available so the CD will remain in it's shrink wrap on my shelf, but as has happened a lot lately after adding the CD to my cart and seeing the $12...

Tentative release date for the newest album is October 24 of '24. Go Ian Go.

Ian has already got ideas written for a 2024 album that he started on January 1st same as TZG last year, he said he might as well get his ideas down while he still can.

I is.

Out of the Horse's mouth, John, fitting for a member of PSA, lol.

Except for the smoking dueling guitars of Benefit, still one of my favorite Tull albums and that's one of the reasons why. Putting on a pair of cans and listening to the left/right channel battles...

The working title was Rock Flute before Ian decided to go all Norse on us. One of the things that drew me to Tull at the time of Benefit (my gateway to Tull) was the role of the acoustic guitar in...

Why? Dude's been daid for like centuries.

Nothing like being lectured about capitalism and greed by a dude worth $300M+, tell it, Roger!

Between multiple music cruises and my making sure I got my butt out to see them whenever they came to town I've lost count of the shows I've seen (at least 20, both electric and acoustic), all...

He was pretty much talking about asthma which a shit ton of people have (including moi), it's not curable but with meds and inhalers you can lead a pretty normal life, so...

Got mine in Nueva York yesterday, if I can only remember to bring it home for the weekend.

Thanks for the head's up, brother.

Talked us into it John, and that 12-month payment plan sealed the deal, especially with your credit card!

Whatever that means he's coming here after the European tour.

Seeing them in a couple weeks in Westbury, LI, that also has a revolving stage.

If you saw a big guy in a hockey jersey in the fourth row (B-Port Sound Tigers) holding Angelo up as he walked from row to row on the chair backs it was me, I'm not a Total Grump, there are certainly...

Hysterical, man, we were sitting in the Greek restaurant on the corner at 7:30 and decided to amble down the street to the venue, as soon as I realized that there was no one hanging out in front of...

Lived in GC at that time, where was the show?

No sax with my Genesis, TYVM.

And we all know "Mike Nelson" was a reference to Lloyd Bridges in "Sea Hunt", right?

So that's where my $$$ went!

Unless you're a Tull fan, then it's a half dozen.

Thank you, Mitt. Humans are very complex animals with varied opinions on literally thousands of things yet if they identify as the letter R or D they're automatically assigned positions that most...

Who knew Jon Anderson was a Republican? I thought the time for stupid personal political takes had passed, guess not.

Popped in the DVD upon receipt just to see if it works (IQ and BBT I'm looking at you), it does but what happened to Fish's voice? Yikes!

TY.

Tested negative this morning, Jet and I missed CTTE (half this thread, lol) but we are leaving on the Oasis of the Seas on Sunday for a 7 day jaunt down to Orlando and then the Bahamas, no plane...

Got mine in NYC just now, ordered two weeks ago.
