My hope is that they somewhat re-imagine the music and not try to be a cover band of music that already has a gizzillion versions out. This lineup could make things sound very different and that...

I just saw them in Rochester. They are loose and obviously having...
Fuckin' pre-ordered! Very excited to read this one!
Saw them in Buffalo also and really enjoyed the show. Kuma was a very cool surprise to hear, as was Absinthe. A very minor quibble would be the Crim tunes. They sounded fantastic, but Ive heard those...
Going to the Buffalo show. Very cool
I'm paying $205 to see him in September, the most I've ever paid for a ticket, but our seats are fantastic. Down on the lowest level, off to the side. I for one am thrilled that it isn't a greatest...
Playing For Change is fantastic! I've bought a lot of swag from them over the years and their video collaborations are fantastic. They also have a live touring band that performs a lot of that...
Agreed. I would personally enjoy more behind the scenes or live shots of the band working on material.
Preordered it also. A&B is some very dense music, and I can't say I'm always in the frame of mind to listen, but when I am it's some fantastic stuff. The videos on their YouTube page are interesting...
Got to see Oysterhead at the Sweetwater Music Fest in Atlanta. I think they said that was only their 10th live gig. Wild show.
Abercrombie, John - "November"
Zappa, Frank - "The Yellow Shark"
Yes, Leonardo is on tour with Stick Men and is completing his move (personal and Moonjune company) to Spain. Not sure about the website, but the move is anticipated to be complete in another week or...
Box set ordered
I'll definitely pick up a DVD or BluRay copy. If it has the Rio footage, that would be great. I was able to catch that footage on YouTube one of the times it was posted (before it got pulled down)...
Thanks!!
Very likely! Odd there are only a couple days left in the month to buy this download that apparently isn't available. Once that date comes and goes it's special edition only. Oh well.
So I wanted the new album with the extra tracks but don't want to pay $76. I saw on their official web site that there was an extended download version available until the end of the month, but there...
I went through a big Spock's Beard phase but for some reason, except for an occasional listen to "V" I find I don't revisit any of it. For me at least it appears they were a specific band for a...
So very sad. Rest easy sir.
It is really sad, and I feel for him if it is something he still wants to do but really - just call it a day and retire. Unless he needs the money, just retire, relax and get healthy. Does anyone...
Agree with everyone, fantastic interview. Now I need to watch the Neil one.
Maybe I missed it but any thoughts on the new box "Erie"? Love the song selection and lineups.
I have the box and never went down the path of downloading the "proper speed" recordings. David's explanation was honest and I felt correct. I remember they offered it as a good faith, indicating...
2112 for me.
Fantastic work once again from the people at Playing for Change! Love the work they do and what they work for.
Enjoy the Stick Men shows! I'm going to see them on 4/1 in Rochester NY. I've seen the band a half dozen times and they never disappoint. Plus, plenty of merch available and meet and greets...
Also, if you look up PAKT on Bandcamp (part of MoonJune Records) you can listen to their offerings at least one time before purchasing. Download prices are very good too.
I was at this show and just grabbed it this morning! Love this group
I've been lucky to have seen Stick Men 6 times and it is always worth going if you can. Looking forward to seeing them this April in Rochester NY. The Lovin' Cup is a pretty nice place - good sound,...
Not bad. I'm willing to give the disc the benefit of the doubt. Personally, I'm glad it sounds nothing like Rush and even nothing like Lifeson. That's what solo work should be - something different...
I LOVE "Clockwork Angels"! A disc where harmony and melody returned to the songs and the tracks were all tied together in a more or less concept album form. Heavy at times, mellow, and some very well...
I only got to see 2 but they were both fantastic.
- King Crimson, Lewiston New York (Artpark) in August. A beautiful night for an outdoor concert and the band was on fire.
- PAKT, Buffalo NY at...
I love this CD almost as much as the first. At the time I heard it I was only a couple years into drum lessons. My teacher played me "The Only Thing She Needs" and I couldn't believe what I was...
Pre-ordered along with a Music is Our Friend shirt that I neglected to pick up in Lewiston NY this past August. Looking forward to this as well as your book John. Thanks again for the insightful...
Looking forward to this! Unreleased music is new music to me, regardless of when it was composed. Bring it!!
Upcoming shows! I'll be checking them out at The Tralf.
Nov 21 - Daryl's House
Pawling, NY, US
Dec 14 - Beachland Ballroom
Cleveland, OH, US
Dec 15 - Tralf Music Hall
Buffalo, NY, US
Pathetic cash grab.
Possible US dates also?
Very good and unexpected news!! Love the song and excited for the CD release. Went ahead and preordered the SDE CD edition. Hoping for a tour to follow, but I'll take new music from them any day.
Oh, I am too! I see that as a different animal though. Not a bio of the band but an analysis of different lineups from a fantastic writer. Autobuy.
Can't imagine any book on Crim offering anything that wasn't covered in fantastic detail by Sid Smith already.
Hard to find but worth looking for:
15435
So good! I can't wait till they hit Richester NY supposedly later this year. I bought the 2 downloads and the double CD and each had their own vibe.
Take a listen on Bandcamp first and then jump...
Yes, you guys played a fantastic set. Personal fave was "Florentine Pogen". First time I've been able to see you play live and really enjoyed your playing (and the band too of course!).
I saw them in Lewiston NY and the show was outstanding! My first concert in over 2 years and I'm just happy it happened at all. My thoughts on the setlist - they wanted to get out and wrap up a U.S....
Looking forward to the new disc. I loved FEAR so I'm hopeful they are on a continued roll.
I was a fan of Marillion since Script, and was lucky to see them twice with Fish - once in a small club...
Another vote for Power, though I will say I love the song The Construction of Light. Some of the best weaving of guitar, including Gunn. I too was losing interest lyrically. The wordplay worked for...
There are live recordings of virtually all the new material they've been performing, aside from anything new this year. It's just spread out across various live discs.
At the age of 75, I doubt...
That PAKT disc is outstanding! They will be releasing digital recordings of the 4 live shows they recently played. All improv, so that's cool. Great lineup and some real fantastic interplay going on...
The site is useless. Need to be a subscriber to access and no public store.
Maybe a better question - anyone got one they are looking to sell??
Has anyone heard if the UK Night After Night extended version might get reissued? Its sold out everywhere and I missed the boat the first time.
They are just starting the process of a new Sonar/Torn disc!
Yeah, I was just looking at the running times and it easily fits on one CD. Why print two? Because it just has to be an epic 2 disc set??
Yes, I would love to take part in this and I'd gladly PayPal shipping costs. Thank you!
"Sculpting in Time" is my favorite of his. "Equation of Time" is a pretty cool fusion type disc. His output is very unique. Acoustic, fusion, looping etc. Great musician.
My fave Crim related...
Another great addition to the Stick Men body of work. Packaging and sound is fantastic. I'll second the thoughts on MoonJune Records. Virtually everything I've bought this year has been from them....
I love both discs equally. 2 different versions of a great band. Plus Danger Money was my introduction to Bozzio. My music teacher played me "The Only Thing She Needs" and I couldn't comprehend what...
Yeah, there's a lot - A LOT of material! :) Lot's of Centrazoon, which admittedly I'm still trying to get into.
Bought that as part of a 3-pack last month on Bandcamp Friday, along with Oculus and Shapeshifter. I thought Sun Trance would be my least favorite and it's the one I'm turning to the most. Great...
