Fascinating interview. Learned a lot. Prog connection is that Tim worked with Toy Matinee.
Got it on iTunes.
Yeah, my son is a big fan. I like them because they are introducing our favorite music to young-ins. Talented guys, though.
Here is the full quote by the commentator: “He’s really good at that fake, Lamar Jackson, but when you consider his dark skin with a dark football with a dark uniform, you could not see that thing,”...
Planning on it. Just haven't got tickets yet. Would love to see the lineups by night. Coming soon, I presume.
I would have to give the nod (and wink) to D&D. But, both albums are similar in quality and are my favorite Camel albums of all time (blasphemy?). As much as I love the classic Camel albums, I...
Part time RV when we can right now. Full time when we retire. Maybe a ProgFest themed route!
Just ordered! Thanks for the heads up.
1. Ever
2. Subterranea
3. Dark Matter
4. Are you Sitting Comfortably
5. The Seventh House
Jewel. She likes to mix up her genres: at times alt-rock chick, little girl voice, country, rock, and capable of near perfect angelic (if you have heard her sing O Holy Night).
Graduated with a girl that soon after became Miss Nude USA. Did not see that one coming. Damn.
Phew. Count me as a buyer for anything posted.
Shaming, Toy Matinee, THUD
Another vote for Diver Down over any Van Hagar. Love that album! VH's covers were always better than the originals.
The Camera Eye and Xanadu. Can't decide.
I always thought the contrast between the music and the subject matter in this film was part of the design. I am glad all films don't do it, but I am also glad for the contrast on this one. Great...
Love it!!! More, please.
That is funny. Never heard that one before, but it is a cover of a Joe Jackson song. Know the Joe Jackson song well.
When did the Heisman ever care about character, recently? Although, according to their own guidelines, they are supposed to. At least that is the way I interpret the "integrity part of it:
"The...
Great stuff! How much of this is you (what instruments, writing...), how much is collaboration?
Gratefull Dead - Terrapin Station
One of my all-time favorites. I end up enjoying his instrumental versions more than the more well-known vocal versions, even if the vocal versions were with Dionne Warwick and some of the other...
I had my teenagers in tow, so it was interesting to see the bands through their eyes. My son thought Gnu Quartet was the best of the show until he saw PFM, who he has never heard a note of. Every...
There will actually be 3 in my party; my two teenagers are coming along. Both are musicians too.
Can't wait. Great line up!
Got my tickets, room, flights all lined up. Looking forward to this one. It's been awhile.
I think they are at BajaProg as well. So, maybe you can make that one.
Thanks! That was interesting. I like Armin, but a little on the poppy side for me. Digweed was more interesting, not sure if I would enjoy them long term. Sasha did nothing for me. Warp...
Got an examples to sample?
This, from someone cheering for a team with Richard Sherman. I think there are Jackass's all over the league. Back in the day, I remember thinking the biggest of them all was "Primetime", until he...
Wow. I guess I saw a different game. Carolina came out there with a huge attitude from play 1. They were belligerent, angry, and truly seemed to hate the Niners. Hate? Really? It is a game,...
Not going to miss Dan one bit. Although, if he replaced Joe Buck, that would be an improvement.
Not sure if you are just pointing that out or it that is meant as a criticism. I have no problem with that method of putting a project together; works well for a rock opera such as this.
... and do it the way Andrew Luck did. No hurry to get out of college; get as much experience as possible.
Gotta take issue with this one, as a "No Cal" fan, as you put it. Yeah, many of us are not big on Southern California in general, but my experience has been that we rarely root against anybody. If...
I saw CC live several years ago as part of one of those all-star lineups. I was amazed at how good he was. Never knew. I remember thinking at the time that he would make a great Prog guitarist...
They do need a do-over after the near debacle with their flights 2 years ago. It seemed to result in a stunted performance with no time left after Subterranea; lucky we got all of Subterranea at...
Pretty good for 14! Fun idea for lyrics with the fortune cookies.
Reserved seating in LA??
Looks like the opening band for Oakland is Living Colour, according to the Sat's website.
Sylvan's Posthumous Silence. Can't even listen to it now, no matter how good it is.
Can't wait! Thanks for posting.
Even if Heliopolis IS the only band, that would still be a great show! Count me in.
Weird. Like both of the two songs originally mentioned. Definitely a guilty pleasure. Glad I am not the only one.
The posted Blurred Lines video is the PG-13 version, by the way. There is a...
I have to say, Moetar absolutely kicked ass! I knew they wouldn't be everybody's cup of tea, but love them or not, the are incredibly talented and I think Moe was the the most impressive singer of...
Never considered Lowdown a Disco hit. But, loved the album it came from.
I have to Second the Dobbins House. Be sure to go to the basement for dinner. I has become in institution for us when attending RosFest. Looking forward to this year!
The Urban Legend I heard at the time was that he recorded the exhaust from a Lambo then transitioned into the bass drums. I am sure it's false, but I like to think it's true when listening to it!...
Highly recommend this one.
If it weren't on a Thursday...Road Trip!
Thanks to all who made it to the show. We had a blast! We were also the lucky ones because after we were done and relaxed, we had two great bands to enjoy. Heliopolis put on a clinic! I really...
Mel, Mind Furniture will buy you two beers!
Greg
Well, I think you are cherry-picking your stats a bit with the picks. How about looking at the total yards and shear number of passes (an indication of how important Luck was to the offense)?
...
We (Mind Furniture) had a song off of our first CD titled "End of Days", appropriately enough. It is on our playlist for the show in Berkeley with MoeTar and Heliopolis on Jan. 26th.
It is pretty hilarious to think that anything discussed on PE can be "overhyped". As if a couple of dozen people discussing, and at most, a few hundred reading, can equal hype. Ha!
Mind Furniture is hoping that our set will be more pleasant than a colonoscopy. To that goal, we have been practicing up a storm and have a good set of old plus new work. Since our Bass player is...
Kerry speaks the truth again!!
His Battle of Evermore cover is worth the price of admission alone, IMHO.
