I just bought 10,000 fists by Disturbed...... KILLER cd.......

[tileguy_n_ky]

Barewood mountain by Big N Rich is playing right now. I listen to all types of music. Usually, turn iTunes on and set it to random. I have everything from 50 cent, to motley crue to janet jackson to chris ledux and everything in between. :nya:

[dufus]

Most times, I just like the silence. However, with 4 teenagers at home, that rarely ever happens.

Right now, they're blasting the music on the DDR video game - all 4 playing together. ARRRGGGGHHHHH! :bang:

Then again. Their laughter truly is a beautiful sound.

That's it. I'm listening to the sounds of family.... :yeah:

I guess I should enjoy it while they're still here.

It all goes into shuffle mode and I change out the news stuff when it's made it through one playing.

[Levi the Tile Guy]

I too love it all except the rap crap. Rage is one of my favs. jack, but if I had to pick I LOVE the blues. Stevie Ray, and Clapton are my heroes.

[Hamilton]

totally agree levi. vaughn and clapton are 2 of my favs as well. ive just been
trying to mention what im listening too atm. i have alot of music i like. its all
different from classic rock to bluegrass country and jazz. i like turn of the century blues to modern blues. I like folk music hippie music punk rock and
'some' techno from the 80's like kraftwerk. too many bands to list in one
post so ill never try to bother. just like to spill what im hearin in the here
and now :tup1:

[Levi the Tile Guy]

I like the comedians also, nothing like some George Carlin or David coe to put a smile on my face

[RLeVan]

Have to agree, George Carlin cracks me up. I have to be sure that I'm not doing anything else while I'm listening to him or I may lose a finger. Of course, it has to be the uncesored version since he can be a bit crass. The HBO standups they have shown in the past were a riot.

The Robin Williams HBO special was pretty damn funny too, the one where he had about 20 bottles of water on the table and throughout the show, he pretty much drank every one of them.

[Hamilton]

Brian Regan is one of my favs. I love all the classic comedians of course.

[Tool Guy - Kg]

Brian Regan is hilarious. :clap2: Haven't seen him in awhile, though.

[lawngnome]

I like the comedians also, nothing like some George Carlin or David coe to put a smile on my face
I usually listen to the classic rock station at work. Huge fan of Carlin though. Here's a link to a 20 min. clip from one of his recent HBO specials.
Carlin 20 min. clip enjoy!!! (http://www.dumpafile.com/item/qYkCsDjU)

[Levi the Tile Guy]

Another funny guy is Roy D. Mercer. He is a southern version of the jerkey boys and hillarious

[Dave Taylor]

What are you listening to?

Jack, fer me its Garrison Keeler's "Prairie Home Companion", hands down. CX guessed that correctly once, mostly. Har

Fer music... drink, drive and stay alive in 55. I'm a oldie's but goodies, rusty dustys', doo-woping, moldy oldies', bubble gumming, rocking rolling, dancing jammer. Ain't it great!

Hope I never grow up :dance:

[Splinter]

Los Straitjackets. It's an instrumental band that does a harder, punky-er version of the old 60's instrumental surf stuff. (Dick Dale, Ventures, etc)

click the link to hear a few samples from what I think is their best album...

Oh, and Godsmack too! :tup2:

Have you ever heard of Gary Hoey? You might like him.

Gary's doing all the old surf standards with a rock beat.... My old band used to play hard and fast versions of Pipeline and Pentration too... I sure miss that band...

[Shaughnn]

Randy,
Now that Lint is off doing his "Transplants" gig and Matt's jumped over to Social Distortion, Lars Frederickson's got his own project going called "Lars Frederickson and the Bastards". It's loud and "screamy". :) Speaking of Lars's, have you heard MC Lars also out of the infamous East Bayyyy? Check out his song, "Hot Topic is not punk" if you can find it? :) Billy Joe Armstrong does occasional projects with his longtime friends. Pinhead Gunpowder was one incarnation that you might enjoy. If you need other outlets from which to pluck your punk chord, check out Steve Koepke's "The List". Steve's been putting together a nearly complete listing of Bay Area off-the-mainstream shows, from concert halls to backyard get-together's, since the days of the Mabuhay Gardens and the Firehouse. It's a good browse where you can find a name or two that seem to be developing a following and hunt for their stuff long-distance. Happy hunting!

[Shaughnn]

Jerry,
Both links is broke.
A humerous story about Bill Graham and The Fillmore. One night between bands, Bill Graham walks into the men's room and begins to relieve himself at a urinal. Those of you familiar with the place may recall that there are awning-style windows over the urinals. Well, ole' Bill is standing there in his bell-bottom hip huggers when a skinny Latino kid starts crawling through the window above him, breaking into Bill's nightclub suring a show. Bill's a bit caught off guard and watches at the kid, with the grace of an experienced cat-burglar who's gotten through these very same windows before, shimmies past the glass and lands on the floor next to Bill with his pants still unzipped. Bill stops the kid and asks him why he's breaking into the club when the price at the door is already so cheap. The kid tells him that he can't afford the door and that he LIVES for the music that's coming out of the Fillmore and HAS to get inside. Bill gives him a job at the club and that gave Carlos Santana the free-time to practice his guitar and get a few gigs in when the bill was light. At least, that's the way the local legend goes. :D

For music, I'm all over the board: Madonna's "Ray of Light" and Al Stewart's "The Year of the CAt" and I LOVE The Killers CD. Also listen to Bob and Tom show on the radio every morning. Funny, but slow moving. Just wish they would somehow magically do away with all the stupid commercials...*sigh*

[RLeVan]

Definitely like Tenacious D.

New music in the tile Guy's ears
Eric Bibb " Spirit of the Blues" Really good gosipal blues and a great guitar player.

In the mail on Monday was Pat Donohue's "Back Roads" Pat is quitar player in the Prarrie Home Companion house band. A cut on it "Touch' Em All" a tribute to Kirby Pucket. It was strange it came the day Kirby left.

Went up to Vancouver a couple weekends ago to listen to this band. Their new CD is very good. http://www.rnbkingpins.com./ (http://) :yipee:

[Hamilton]

I was in fact just listening to this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nn7UB2FtrIE&search=dead%20anthem) a few moments ago :yeah:

[Slee]

Coincidentilly enough, the last band I listened to while tiling was Mudhoney.

Any other tile/flooring related band names out there?

Tool and Seal are a stretch but hey, what won't be?

[GraniteGirl]

Hey Rick - have you seen "V for Vendatta" yet? We saw it on Thursday and thought it quite excellent.

As for what's on the iPod - Blind Melon, Cat Stevens, Neil Diamond, Cher, Hugh Masekela, Cheryl Crow, Big & Rich, Alanis Morisette, Johnny Clegg & Juluka, Ray Charles, CCR, Jaimiroquai, Alison Krauss, Creed, Deep Blue Something, Edit Piaf, Eric Clapton, REM, Van Morrison, The Soggy Bottom Boys :D Soweto String Quartet too many others - all good and all over the map :yeah:

Not sure if this will download but it's the Dixie chicks new song, I'm not country guy but these chick are hot and dam they can sing. There new song is "not ready to make nice", if it don't show up here sorry. Na it won't load, sorry.

[Shaughnn]

Sad news. The band Sleater-Kinney announced earlier this week that they'll be wrapping things up with this Summer's tour and won't be playing again. Their last album "The Woods" has been on heavy rotation in my Ipod Nano for months now.
http://hype.non-standard.net/track/127702

On an up-beat though, the Silversun Pickups from Los Angeles will be releasing a new album this July 13th. The song "Lazy Eye" gets my finger's tapping everytime I've heard it on the radio so far.
http://hype.non-standard.net/track/104143

On the Jolie Holland front, she's released a new album called "Springtime Can Kill You " and it's real good. She's playing in San Francisco at Bimbo's this weekend if anyone wants to check out the show and have a birthday drink on my behalf?

Have you guys heard of Pandora (http://www.pandora.com)? It's a personalized web radio station. It is very addictive. You feed it some groups or songs that you like, then it will pick similar stuff for you. Then you can rate each song that it gives you to customize your station further. You can have multiple stations and share them with friends.

It's free! I always have it going when I'm on the computer late at night, and at some point I need to find a way to pump it into my garage. I LOVE IT.

[dbol]

HOWARD!!!!!
if you want to laugh Howard and crew are awesome, as is Sirius radio. There are no commercials and whatever music you like it is on there.
I just bought the new AFI disc and it is very good. The musical talent of that group is amazing.

Residents of a suburban Sydney Park are furious at a musical move to combat late-night revellers.

The town of Rockdale has been blasting out Barry Manilow tunes to drive away car enthusiasts who gather on weekends at Cook Park Reserve.

"Barry's our secret weapon," Rockdale Deputy Mayor Bill Saravinovski said four weeks after the start of the effort.

"It seems to be working."

But some people living near the park are less than happy.

They say the barrage of "Copacabana" and "Que Sera Sera", blasting from 9pm to midnight every Friday, Saturday and Sunday is driving them crazy.

"I don't know how I will cope," said Moya Dunn, describing how the songs have invaded her house.

"I just can't sleep when it's on, and to think there's going to be another six months of this."

Officials have given in a little, agreeing to turn down the volume a bit after residents complained.

Mr Saravinovski added: "I'm not disputing what the residents are saying. I can't swallow some of the tracks."

"We have tried to reduce the sound and we are reviewing the songs."

I like the wide variety so I put it on shuffle and am always surprised :twitch:

I just got the new Vcast phone from verizon. Its pretty cool. Its like
an ipod player with a removable memory chip. When you listen to songs
and get a phone call the music automatically pauses where the song stopped.
Restarts where you left off after you finish the call ;)
Been hooked on ben harpers new CD both sides of the gun lately of course
all his music is really good. Trask ..... Garcia/Grisman ... :tup1:

[Shaughnn]

Trask,
Where did you find the Covering's lectures!?!?!? I NEED those for my iPod Shuffle. I like the rest of your playlist too. I'm wearing one of my Tool t-shirts today but I haven't had the cash to buy the new album, with the move and all. I think I've got a long list of music to buy when I'm flush again. Have you heard stuff from the new "New York Dolls" album yet?

Any of ya'll heard the soundtrack from the Phantom of the Opera? The one from the movie with Emmy Rossum, not the Broadway play with Sarah Brightman.
A little different I know, but seein' as how they quit making country music anymore I had to try something else.

[Shaughnn]

Raymond, they haven't quit making Country music. Try listening to some of the archived broadcasts from the "Swinging Doors" (http://kexp.org/programming/progpage.asp?showID=5&1413=38946.75-1&96=38946.75-1&20=38946.75-1&256=38946.75-2) show on KEXP 90.3FM here in Seattle. They have the most recent show available at a streaming broadcast or you can tune in on Thursday nights when they simulcast.
There is plenty of new Country music out there which won't get played on the "New Country" stations. Good luck in your hunting!,

[Shaughnn]

Jack, have you heard anything off of the new "Spearhead" album? I keep thinking that there are a couple tracks which you might like?
Shaughnn

[Hamilton]

No, in fact i havent heard of them shaughnn. Ill have to hack my daughters
Itunes acct :x: and check them out :yeah: You know i tease shaugnn :shades: . I did see a really cool cable infomercial
on loggins and mecina (SP) They have remasterd their 70's stuff from
analogue to digital and also released some full versions of angry eyes and
mama dont dance. I forget the name of the new release... something like
"sittin in" anyways its out now. I might be off to pick it up this weekend.
Had some really cool acoustic stuff and the craft in the music was top notch
from what i saw on TV. Ill do a search on Spearhead here in a few and
see if i can pull up some sample tracks. Thanx for the heads up

[Trask]

"Tangled up in Blue"...man what a great tune. Indigo Girls do a great cover too. Anything off the Dylan "Desire" album is good .

Kelly Joe Phellps is awesome. album is "SKY LIKE A BROKEN CLOCK"

A friend just stopped by and I ripped an artist named Chris Smithers...so far very good.
If you like a little off the wall try the Dresden Dolls

Slaid Cleaves is another singer/songwriter that's worth your time..album is "Broke Down". He played in Portland a while back and i talked to him after the show..just amazed at his talent. Turns out the guy checks himself into medical study clinics for cash. 30 days at a time and he can write and play music but no physical contact with the wife&kids..Tough way to pay the bills.

If you guys are working with I-Pods check this out. Just got one today.
http://www.otterbox.com/products/ipod_cases/ipod_nano_case/

[Eugenius]

are two of my favorite things. Places to eat and musicians singing off the beaten path...out in the woods...
most of my favorite musicians are not mainstream. Slaid Cleaves is one of those. Monty Montgomery is another...Joe Ely...Jimmie Dale Gilmore...Jimmie La Fave...Billie Joe Shaver...Tim Ryan (Girl With Eyes of Green)...etc...
I'm independent as a hog on ice and I love the 'indie' artists.

Trask, Robert Rodriguez also checked himself into a medical testing 'pay you ' facility where he was able to write "Maraichi Man", a great shot from the hip indie movie. The powers in Hollywood gave him millions to shoot a remake with Antonio Banderas. Robert Rodriguez is living proof that some artists shine more brightly as independents than as mainstreamers.

[Theold--scottyb]

Chamirra (sp), and Ill eagle. Both are Ohio based.. Great bands...

Just heard a track from Solomon Burke's new album "Nashville" (http://www.thekingsolomonburke.com/) , that's coming out at the end of September. It was a cover of Buddy Miller's "Does My Ring Burn Your Finger" (not Lee Anne Womack's version). I'm excited for the album. Been a fan of Mr. Burke's for a long while and it's fantastic that he's still exploring American music so successfully.
Ye-Haw Y'all,
Shaughnn

[NVC]

And it burns, burns, burns like a roaring ring of far . . . :D

I'm half deef. The wife always listens to me holler'n "what?, what?" and then says "nevermind" so then I figure it must not have been so terribly important . . . that's logic :yeah:

So, anyway my point is . . . (under my hat, but I dont' wanna speak of that) I listen to a cricket type of ringing all the time. That's what I'm listening to. WHAT? ;)

Mark

[Raymond S]

Eric, that ought to be good. Pretty much everything but "Can't You See?" Little burnt out on that one.

[Hamilton]

Mark i have that same ringing, and half deefness. I was in sprouts the other

Jack and all,
Here's an article about Michael Franti of "Spearhead", whom I mentioned a few posts back. It really is a "feel good" kind of album, and remains upbeat while retaining Franti's political integrity. Definately worth a listen or two.

Jack,
Do you like the new Tool. With the move and all, we haven't bought new music for a while and that's on the "long list".
Shaughnn

[Hamilton]

Yes. :D The new tool is very good music.

[igneous]

Umm....music. My favorite album for the past 4-5 months has been the Silversun Pickups (1st release, 2nd to come soon? alread here?). Kind of moody, very flavorful. If Black Frank from the Pixies were melded with Billy Corgan, you would get the vocals very close to right.

Another one I picked up that was very surprising was the Broken Flowers sountrack. If you like Jazz you should definetely check it out. I usually avoid soundtracks like the plague but this is one that I am not ashamed to own. I found (read: downloaded) the album that has the Mulatu Astatke cd that is seperate from the rest of the soundtrack. That Holly Go Lightly tracks are nice too.

I also have this thing for the Beatles White Album and for Rubber Soul. There are other albums I like, but these are in my top 10 of all time.

B-

[robert august]

just saw pearl jam last month in san francisco, i downloaded the same concert from my computer and have not stopped listining to it absolutly amazing

[Shaughnn]

B-
The new Silversun Pickups albums is already out and it's got quite a few good tracks. I posted a link to their first single off of it a few pages back in this thread. It's called "Lazy Eye" and the fuzzy guitar and Brian's singing really work together well in it. When he breaks tempo into a roar I always get this "refreshed" feeling and smile. :) Yummy stuff! Have you checked out "Band of Horses", the "Black Angels" or "Ghostland Observatory" yet. All are getting pretty heavy play on KEXP 90.3FM up here in Seattle, which simulcasts and podcasts it's shows. A very good website to browse.
Enjoy!,

i remember alot of the concert posters from The Grande Ballroom,,MITCH RYDER,,MC5,JAMES BROWN ,JANICE,,ECT, When my brother moved out of the house in about 71 my dad (with my help) tore his collection from about 1966-1970 off the wall (about 100 posters)and threw them away..At the prices on line some where close to $100,000.up in smoke!

[Hamilton]

Thanks for the link John. Ill save that one in the favs. :talk:

[Dave the Tile Guy]

Hahaha...what a great thread. I've probably got one of the most eclectic tastes in music ever. I grew up on classic rock...Beattles, Stones, Morrison etc. Loved Joplin too. I will also turn on the local country and listen to "new" country; Martina McBride, Gretchen Wilson, Alan Jackson etc. I like the old Johnny Cash as well. "A boy named Sue"...great song!!.
But I've got a dark secret that I can never truly realease. You know those vid shots of Raves where kids are going all night long with neon tubes and such?? I love that music. I can "trance" right out on stuff like "Confusion by New Order" (theme song to 1st Blade) or Darude's sandstorm. At home I'll put on the cordless phones and just CRANK it and listen to all the "techno house" stuff I've d/l'ed.
*Sigh*...but nope...can't do that. I'm "old"..."you'd look like an idiot" they say. ...(how did I get so old so fast...I was born way too soon :tongue: )

Then there's my son who's 19 and into Goth!

[Shaughnn]

Dave,
Have you ever given the "Epitonic" (http://www.epitonic.com/index.jsp?refer=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.epitonic.com%2Fgenres%2Fmathrock.html) website a ride? I find lots of obscure mixes there. It's also where I've first discovered some of the bands which are now my favorites.

Alright, this might just be inappropriate but I'll let you all decide for yourself like adults. It's a music video, of sorts, that was my wife shared with me and I've been stuck between breathless laughter and jaw-dropping disbelief.

What is Alison Krauss sound like?

[motxla]

The one I was listening to was a great bluegrass version of "Down in the River to Pray" from the movie Oh Brother Where Art Thou? . . . one of my all time favorite wacky movies.

[Trask]

The choir in that scene was from White House Tenn. My Grandma used to sing and attend sevices there long ago. It is a fantastic version of the hymn and a surreal scene in the movie. Loved it.

Pat, Alison Krause sounds like an Angel..check her out.





New current fav's



Barbershop Fred, Nickel Creek, "live at house of Blues" doing a song called..."Toxic"..found it on Limewire, It's AWESOME.
Checkout anything Chris Smither does..I'm really into him right know. Everything so far has been ,good but the live stuff is best.
Also for a new twist on jazzy easy listening (like Norra Jones) is Jamie Cullum.

[Hamilton]

I really like Diana Krall. She has a voice that is heaven sent. She has a great

You all gorget the best guitar player ever strummed a string? None other than Jimmi Hendrix! He was years ahead of his time in music. In my opinion I think he revolutionized the guitar. Electric ladyland is my favorite.
My 2 cents worth

[Hamilton]

I have always loved Jimmy. Sad he died so young. Ive always had
a place for Jerry Garcia and the Dead as well. In fact i was just
checkin out this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMvFdsJ7GwA&eurl=) on Youtube.com. Folks post some great stuff on this site.

[ddmoit]

Never heard of 'em, Jeb. Liked the clip though. She (it is a she, right?) reminds me of Beth Orton.

I've been a long-time Tragically Hip fan. They're wildly popular in Canada - almost a national institution. But they're nigh unheard of in most of these United States.

http://thehip.com

[jeb]

her real name is chan marshall, i believe.
cat power is her stage name. she is also a model for a perfume or clothing company, or was.

a bit dark, but when she intones......."jackson....jesse...," i get chills.

will have to check out beth orton. thanks.

[Shaughnn]

Jeb,
I picked up Cat Power's "The Greatest" CD the other day. I also picked up Tom Brosseau's self-titled album which is a much different experience but I liked it very much. Tom Brosseau's "Grand Forks" album has an accompanyment from Hilary Hahn on fiddle. Compare this folksy fiddle to her amazing violin and it's easy to see what a wonderfully deep person she is. Definately somebody to sit and chat over coffe with.
Shaughnn

[Trask]

Just listened to "Love & Communication" by Cat Power the other day...had never heard them prior to that...very good stuff.

Been revisiting Modest Mouse this week...I think They are a Seattle band...(actually I think I heard North Bend)

Also back to listening to Patti Griffin " Living with Ghosts" Album...I think one of the best all time alt folk rock issues

[jeb]

shaughnn,

i'm impressed. you must know all kinds of out of the mainstream artists which is very cool. don't know how i came across 'cat power', but i like her dark sound. i will check out those you mentioned.

thanks.

[e3]

The Concert for Bangladesh DVD and the Keb Mo DVD got me home from Vegas.If you havent seen the Concert For Bangladesh before or since the 70s ,do yourself a favor.

[Shaughnn]

Jeb,
I cheat. I have the wonderful good fortune of having KEXP radio (http://www.kexp.org/home.asp?noflash=true) here in Seattle. I honestly have never known a radio station that is so completely ahead of the musical curve as this one is. IF you want to know what the "hip" radio stations of any genre will be playing NEXT YEAR, you'll hear it as a live "in studio" session on KEXP first. Last year they had over 400 "in studio" performances (many available for free download on their website). It's everything that radio could be if you took corporate ownership out of it. It's radio people playing the music (all genres) which gets them off. It's refreshing and passionate.
Back in August, I was listening to KEXP one night and thought of an artist whom I thought would really fit well into the DJ's playlist so I called him up. The DJ answered his own phone and when I said, "You know, I think that Jean Shepard might fit really well with what you're playing tonight.", He replied, "I've got Jean Shepard cued up on the turn-table right now". Not the song I was suggesting but still a mind-blower that "The Grand Lady of the Grand Ole Opry" would get playtime next to artists like "The Trucks", "Band of Horses", "...And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead" and "Citizen Cope".
I don't know that I can accurately express how much I appreciate this radio station (which also "streams" it's broadcasts in several different formats).
Eric,
Which Keb Mo?

[Hamilton]

Sounds enticing shaughnn, how bout a link... please :p

[Dave the Tile Guy]

Im listening to the new Windows Media Player 11!! hehe :lol2:

Im one of those guys always late on the newest stuff. This thing is awesome! I've spent the whole day ripping all my cd's onto the puter. WMP 11 sorts it all, even giving it the appropriate album art covers. Together with my cordless headphones Im all set!!

Now Im gonna get the 30 gig ipod and transfer every CD I own onto it. Then I've got my complete library wherever I go! Can plug it into the car stereo..any home stereo. MAn this world is getting so tech!!

[Hamilton]

Thanx for the edit shaughnn ;)

[T_Hulse]

Shaughnn I'm a huge KEXP (http://www.kexp.org/home.asp?noflash=true) fan too. It's always on when I'm around the computer. :nod:
That's the only bad thing about working too far north of Seattle, can't get reception on the jobsite. :D
To anyone who might try it out, you really have to give it a couple days to get a feel for it. The variety is massive. Each DJ's show will be completely different.

[iiigoiii]

the last tiling job i did, it was 'bad religion' the whole time. kept us moving fast!

[ddmoit]

I just heard that Chris Cornell is quitting Audioslave. I never liked Audioslave anywhere near as much as I liked Rage Against the Machine or Soundgarden. Seemed like bad chemistry from the get-go. I had to laugh when Chris sang Killing in the Name of at Live 8. That isn't even a song without Zac.

I know the band has some major socialist tendencies, but I like them anyway because they're really angry about some of the same stuff that makes me angry. It's just that we have different ideas about how to fix things - really different.

It's really hard to beat Rage when it comes to pure sonic anger though.

Rush Limbaugh used to play Rage coming out of his breaks. That used to crack me up. I don't know if he was aware of it, or if he just had some kid doing it.

[Trask]

Just got into Matt White Band...check them out very good acoustic folk rock.Similar to David Grey or Ari Heist with better unplugged sorta jazzy guitar lines.

new cool indie stuff:
The Kooks
Silversun Pickups
Cold War Kids
Siversun Pickups have a great jam style to them with a girl singer that sounds really really good if your into indie stuff. I'll bet they are not an indie band for long.http://www.silversunpickups.com/

[Shaughnn]

Doug,
The "Silversun Pickups" are on their second album and there's no sign that they are ready to record for "the Man" yet. By the way, that's "Brian" on vocals. I first thought it was a female singer also, and then hunted them down on YouTube and realized my mistake. :)
KEXP (Seattle radio station) has been playing their stuff for about two years or so. The local "alternative" station just started playing the first single off of their most recent album. I agree with you that, barring some Blind Melon tragedy, they'll be making another couple of albums. I'm looking forward to it.
Shaughnn

[dbol]

"lazy eye" I could swear had the girl singing. I've been wrong before though. I would love to see them live but, Pittsburgh PA is not known for diversity in music.

[dbol]

Yeah I should have checked out youtube. I watched two of their appearances and now I would love to see them even more. well nikki at least sings backup vocals.

Hey Doug,
April 13th, the "Silversun Pickups" will be back here in Seattle and will be doing another live studio session at KEXP that afternoon. If you can't catch in through the streaming broadcast over the internet, you will be able to download the live performance from their "In Studio Archive"

My kids got me a DVD copy of The Last Waltz, a Martin Scorsese film documenting the last performance of The Band at Winterland on Thanskgiving day in 1976. I previously had a VHS copy. I never get tired of watching/listening to it. It's beautifully filmed, and has a non-stop stream of talent on the stage. Where else would you get Neil Young, Dr. John, Muddy Waters, and Eric Clapton on the same stage?

[Jerry L A Tile]

Hey Dan, I bought that dvd over here a couple months ago. Never heard of "The Band" before that? Although I knew some of their music. I have to say I enjoyed watchin it. Although I was a we lad back then I still remember most of the peeps in the film. I give it one thumb up :tup2:

[irish tileguy in michigan]

hey dan, great choice . that was some real classic music back then.

[Shaughnn]

Dan,
Check out "Lightning in a Bottle", if you like musical documentaries. An amazing collecting of Blues artists.
Shaughnn

[ddmoit]

I've been meaning to take that one in, Shaughnn. I bet Scorsese's work with The Band is what ultimately led him to this project. I won't wait much longer to see it. I've been a blues fan for some time now. I was born in Chicago, and then Led Zeppelin made me want to visit their influences.

[ddmoit]

I'll be at the show at The Vogue in Indy on May 10th.

[dbol]

I remember listening to Robbie Robertson, and then finding he was in a band called The Band. Then I thought that is almost as weird as calling yourself The
Who. I was young what can I say. Robbie has a great voice.

[Trask]

I need more music... I'm cutting slabs late tonight and my I-pod is thirsty for something new.

Nothing "Muddy"sounding. Too much stuff out there parading as "alternative" that simply obscures the artist voice with sub par rythem guitar. Guess that's why I'm always moving towards unplugged.

[Shaughnn]

Trask,
Jolie Holland and Tom Brosseau are both airy near-accapella folky singers with songs which invite whistling along. I like working to them both.
For a podcast alternative, you could try "This American Life" or "The Commonwealth Club" for a heaping helping of brain food?
KEXP had the English Beat back together in in the studio for a live boradcast on Thursday. It was absolutely amazing and it should be available for free in their archives by now. Twist & Shout!
Shaughnn

[ddmoit]

I was spinning through the TV channels tonight (short trip on my antenna) and I ended up mesmerized by the flawless voice of Loreena McKennitt. She was featured on PBS. You know it's the good stuff because they're in the midst of a money drive. I realized that I had heard some of her songs before, but wow! Sonically and visually striking.

EDIT: Here's a YouTube clip for anyone else caught unaware of this woman...

I first saw them perform in Berkely back in 1993 and was very confused about what they were doing. Now that I'm older and have a broader view I realize how inspired they've always been. Nifty people too.

Chuck,
I got to enjoy King Crimson open for Tool at a small venue in Berkely for the Lateralus tour and it was absolutely amazing. Both bands speak the same language but write very differently in it. The finale had both bands on stage for another 20 minutes.
I was telling Trask about them when we were in Chicago together and I've vowed to get some of their stuff into his library. What was your favorite album?
Shaughnn

[Mountain Tile]

Shaughnn, I thought the drummer was amazing, Bill breuford ( I know I"m probably spelling his name wrong) had drums and bells and chimes every where, and he played standing up the whole show, I"ve never seen anything like it. I"ve seen rush a few times and thought Neil Pert was the best drummer since Keith Moon, but that guy was unbeleivable.

sirius radio. Bluegrass channel 65. Only wish is that they'd play some David Grier...

[ddmoit]

Doug, I don't know if I've ever met anyone who flat out didn't like Yes. I think they're unbelievably fantastic when they're at their best.

However, if someone said the Jon Anderson's voice grated on them, or that the band was unapologetically self-indulgent at times, I could understand that. :nod:

[dbol]

while we all like our own music.
Yes, gets way overplayed by the DJ on this one Pittsburgh station, everyday, One of the same two songs. The chic DJ really is annoying and she takes it right into the song. That is why I now listen to Sirius. I can pick my own station to listen and for the most part there aren't DJ's asking what your name is telling you what time it is, and the weather. It drive me nuts when I get to the job and there is a painter listening to that station.
I appreciate the talent of Yes. I just hate their sound.

[ddmoit]

Well, you can't blame the band for a station that overplays them, but I sure can appreciate your frustration.

My favorite Yes album is Close to the Edge, which rarely gets any radio play. The songs are too long; there's only 3 songs on the whole album.

[Trask]

My new greatest find is a band called "Carbon Leaf"..I really like this song..not so into animation so I think the video sucks..but the song is super duper http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1-PUQbE0mQ

[Shaughnn]

Thanks Trask,
I agree that the stolen anime doesn't fit with the music at all. I tried to find some links for "Boiled in Lead" but didn't have much luck. They're a "Rock & Reel" folksy rock band from the mid-West and are pretty good. Their earlier stuff "Orb" and "Ladel to the Grave" are the albums I know the best. Garmarna is a band from Sweden on the same label and I used to love their first self-titled album. If you can find anything by them, you might enjoy it?
Shaughnn

I'm looking now..

Just watched a bunch of stuff on youtube on Maynard...that guy is unbelievable. in one clip a fan rushes the stage..Maynard hip throws him to the ground and without missing a beat proceeds to sit on his chest and sorta "dominate" him in a submission hold through the rest of the song :lol1:

A little off the beaten path here for hard bop jazz fans...

"Free for All" by Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers. On the title track Art Blakey, Wayne Shorter, Freddie Hubbard and Curtis Fuller each turn in some solos that you have to hear to believe. If you listen close you can hear the band cheering each guy on as they light it up. This music would give Kenny G a heart attack.

Great choice, Mike. :clap1: My appreciation for jazz has grown quite a bit in the past 10 years or so.

This is a great site!

I find that after I had entered about 10 of my own station selection the Quick Mix is just wonderful.
I don't have to go down to the storage locker and pull out albums or purchase them.
Sit back and listen.
Enjoy

A guy I used to work with in the trans. & logist. biz turned me on to this guy.

John Cummata: Transforming debt into wealth seminars. mp3 versions

simple no nonsense debt elimination tactics and saving for the future, makes me accountable for my own actions.

This does work, built a house 2 yrs ago and it will be paid for in about 5 1/2 yrs. just following this simple logic.

Are you a fan of the Blues?
This is a great Saturday and Sunday night show that streams on the web

Today I listened to David Allen Coe while I worked. Been listening to a lot of Hank III. Went and saw Bad Religion with the wife last week. I mix it up a lot. Hendrix Blues and Black Sabbath were my bowhunting tunes this year.

[Trask]

Kalai..album: Acoustacism..took a week but now I really like it.

Sara Bareilles is fantastic.

Carbonleaf is worth looking into..best song is "ring around the lake"

Chilli Peppers still have it with the album "Stadium Arcadium". Not a song on that album I don't like.

My kids love Dixieland Jazz (I think you'd have to be a PinkoCommie to not like it)and for some reason I can't get tired of FireHouse Five's version of Lassus Trombone either. It's a great tune :yipee:

[Marge]

Listening to everything today. Finally bought an IPOD yesterday and have been ripping CD's all morning. :)

[tilerite]

Doing some office work while getting inspired by some great musicians.

Are you sitting there with nothing on to listen to.
Here is a great link to a weekend blues show

http://www.kplu.org/on-air.html

[ceramictec]

thanks Jerry,

I love the Net, you can listen to all types of music from all over the world.
great I can hear a Jazz show from up in Seattle.


I use a site called Shoutcast, you can find many types of genres of music in the search and anything that is playing on the net will show up and you can listen.

I like SKY.FM for my Jazz

I keep my laptop on my night stand and listen to this when I head to sleep.

[Rob Z]

Jerry,

sweet...I'm listening to "Sweet Home Chicago" right now! :)

[JTG]

I',m working nights this week so have some time to look up different stuff
I found this link to Public Radio stations all over the country.
What is neat is that is tells you what is on right now.
So a station in Buffalo has Click and Clack on at 6:00 AM EST and I could listen to it at 3:00 here. I would have been asleep and missed it this week.
John's Blues show on right now is one of my favorite shows on the radio.
It will also be on Sunday night.
Enjoy

I love Click and Clack, I pick up their show on podcast every week, that way I can listen to 'em at my leisure.:)

I just finished up a couple of audio books from my public library web site by an author named Ted Bell, from his Alex Hawke series. Great stuff, action adventure novels.:tup1:

[Trask]

Been obssesed with the Chili Peppers album "Stadium Arcade" all month long.Hardly a bad track on the whole album..check it out. :)

[silvercitytile]

good choice trask :twitch:

[dbol]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadium_Arcadium
can I be a jerk to just say the name of the album. The peppers keep on putting out the albums and doing a great job of of it. John Frusciante is what makes them a good band to a great band. Without him they are basically done.

[Dan Kramer]

I love Click and Clack, I pick up their show on podcast every week, that way I can listen to 'em at my leisure.

Alright Greg we agree again! :)

[HS345]

Alright Greg we agree again!
:yipee:

Dan, don't tell anyone, but I like...... A Prairie Home Companion too. :yeah:

[Dan Kramer]

I gotta come clean too. Garrison Keillor is great. You'll catch me listening to This American Life as well. I really like NPR's weekend programming.

[ceramictec]

? :confused: that's a Mother song.


I was just listening to my Smooth Jazz

http://www.sky.fm/mp3/smoothjazz.pls

[Shaughnn]

You're wrong, Brian. It's THE mother song of all mother songs. What better way to celebrate dads everywhere than to sing about "Mom". When he graduates from college, does he yell "Hi Dad!". Nope. We are the forever-unsung heroes of the family.
It's also a kick-ass cover version of a Pink Floyd classic. :D
Shaughnn

[tilerite]

Brian;
Thats a great link!!

[ceramictec]

Pink Floyd classicI agree with that for sure. but you could have posted:
The Temptations - Papa Was a Rolling Stone or Cat Stevens - Father & Son. :)


Brian; Thats a great link!!anytime,
I listen to Jazz when I'm doing my take-off at the computer.

[Shaughnn]

Brian,
Yup, sure could have but then it would have had to wait until next year. :D
Shaughnn

[Crestone Tile]

Shaughnn,

You ever pick up the "It's Blitz" album (Yeah Yeah Yeahs)?

[Shaughnn]

Not yet. I haven't bought any new music in a long while. If it's not available for me to stream for free, I'm not hearing it. I'm diggin my Pandora mix list and my local radio station rocks them sockes off them foxes.
Shaughnn

[ceramictec]

I have a program that you can rip any stream off the net that's playing. :)

most of the time your station has a station URL or Stream name you can add.
it files everything away in a nice little folder.
