This sucks. :([/QUOTE]
Yea, I saw something about that on TV and read about it in Rolling Stone, sucks.

I hope you all exercise your right to vote for Widespread Panic, being the decent law-abiding CR regulars you all are :p

I listened to Peter Gabriel for the first time at work today.

That sucks about CBGB's :( A lot of history in that place.

And? What'd you think?

I went to Allman Brothers/moe. last night...it was obviously frickin' awesome. They played all their great songs, the highlights were a Derek and the Dominos cover of "Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad" it's kind of an obscure cover but I just happened to be playing that CD on the way up so I was all over it. Then the guitarist from moe. Al Schnier came out and jammed with ABB minus Gregg they did an amazing cover of "Franklin's Tower" featuring Oteil on lead vocals. That jam last about 7 minutes they played some riffs from "Truckin' " in the middle of the jam and then flowed back into "Franklin's Tower." moe. was pretty awesome as an opener but they had a weak close..they played a watered down jam and they left it at that. As long as they played "Happy Hour Hero" it satisifed me so I was happy. All in all it was a sick *** concert with lots of pot and black and milds and the stars were out it was really awesome.

[QUOTE]amazing cover of "Franklin's Tower"[/QUOTE]
Well, that show was obviously a hundred times better than the one I was at :upset:

If I remember correctly they opened with Statesboro Blues, and the encore was a very odd version of Southbound with Al Schnier.

bah! /jealous
It sounds like I have something to look forward to next weekend. I will miss moe. though. That's really cool that they played Franklin's Tower

Did you happen to see any girls with huge blonde (pink?) dreads? Hahah... My friend Jenny was the only one I know who got to go to it, as unlikely as that is

I actually saw like 3 or 4 blondes with dreads so I probly saw her unknowingly.

I wrote down the set list kinda..

They opened up with Stand Back>the low point was when they played two songs from Hittin' the Note that I don't remember> they bounced back with Why Does Love Got To Be So Sad>Franklin's Tower>Midnight Rider>One Way Out>Drums Solo (15 minutes..it was eh ok)>Bass Solo (really good)>Black Hearted Woman>Encore>Whipping Post>Melissa>Little Martha They kinda had two encores because they all left then Gregg came back out with an acoustic and they played more. They were supposed to stop at 10:30 I think but they played 'til 11.

I'm not a big fan of "Whipping Post" live, including the version on Live at Fillmore...Gregg's vocals are so off in the chorus it just ruins everything...they crowd is singing along then he has his offbeat singing it just doesn't fit, it could be better.

I really like Hittin' the Note, they played Woman Across the River, Maydelle, Instrumental Illness, and they may have played Rockin' Horse I can't quite remember. All those songs are kicka[SIZE=2]ss[/SIZE].

yeah, Bob Dylan sort of did that with "Like A Rolling Stone", but you could hear the entire place singing/chanting it, so it was pretty cool

Just bought a really cool Frank Zappa and a Syd Barrett shirt. :cool:

I'm so excited, don't get shirts too often. Can't wait till they arrive. :D


Oh yah sorry Schyma I spent our drug money on cool new shirts.

I never post in this thread.

But 10cc's I'm Not In Love makes me pee my pants.

Thanks.

/probably leaves

Yeah, I missed the Allmans. :(

Warren Haynes wasn't going to be able to go to the show anyways.

[QUOTE=tycoon531]so is this like the biggest thread in rock and metal[/QUOTE]

Probably. This is the only thread I go into regularly in R & M.

It probably won't be that long before the community thread overlaps us again, but it will get closed and a new one will start.

Yeah, I dont think I even have a post in the new one.

Yep. Hittin' The Note is a quality album.

[QUOTE]so is this like the biggest thread in rock and metal[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I'd say so.

You go and spam in the pit for the rest of the time. :p

As soon as the community thread reaches more pages/posts than us, it must be closed! :angry:

Did anyone download the Psychedelic Sessions from the Pink Floyd thread?

That game was cool. I had no idea of some of those albums.

I got 88% with The Beatles, 60% percent with the Grateful dead, and I just gave up with Led Zeppelin

[QUOTE=Walrus Gumboot]I got 88% with The Beatles, 60% percent with the Grateful dead, and I just gave up with Led Zeppelin[/QUOTE]

I think I got 90% with the Dead and 80% with Hendrix.

I got 70% with The Who

100% with the Grateful Dead.

easy...

And they got a bunch of the album titles wrong. And a bunch of them weren't exactly Grateful Dead albums.

90% with Bob Dylan

Pink Floyd edition

You got 80% correct and scored 1536 pop points
Fantastic! the rest of the world only scored 64%

I got 90% but a lot of those covers were not the Who

[QUOTE=Badmoon]100% with the Grateful Dead.

Yeah, I noticed that half of the Beatles ones were like "Boston pops Plays The Beatles"

..And 80% with the Beatles.

60% Beatles

[QUOTE]100% Jack Johnson (some were Miles Davis album covers)[/QUOTE]

I gave up on Jack because so many weren't his albums.

My brother is tryin to get me into Jack Johnson , but i really dont like that kind of music that much.

Well AC/DC and Jack Johnson are polar opposites.
