[QUOTE=rock not roll]:D
That 35000 is mainly just 10 guys :( I should get the wall on dvd. So that i can watch it over and over again :) /'cause I owuld never get sick of it[/QUOTE] I found it to be quite the worthy investment. |
[QUOTE=Paranoidd]I bought my stepdad "The Wall" for christmas a couple years ago but it sits in my DVD collection.[/QUOTE]
The Wall is f[FONT=Verdana]u[/FONT]cking brilliant. I could never get bored of it either. np: Stevie Ray Vaughan - Pride & Joy |
[QUOTE=White_heat]Is that the movie about the whole Robert Johnoson story?
I've been wanting to see that for a while[/QUOTE] No, but there is a Robert Johnson movie (well biography). |
What is it called?
|
I don't know.
|
Is this it??
[url]http://www.cduniverse.com/search/xx/movie/pid/1087319/a/Search+for+Robert+Johnson.htm[/url] NP : Simon and Garfunkel - Sound of Silence(great song) |
Well.....I've decided to make a return! Not really.......I was just joking about leaving. I mean this place produces way to much fun to just leave like that. I'm just ULTRA grounded for the summer because my mom found out that I do a thing called "dRugS" and now she has grounded my computer for the summer. (or until she forgets about it) Sorry for the confusion.
So anyway......Syd Barrett is pretty awsome. |
If you haven't got it already:
Dazed & Confused by Jake Holmes [url]http://s42.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1YWO4L1HEHYWG3H56AH1YXC95Y[/url] |
Hey thanks alot for that link! I very much look forward to listening to it!
|
[QUOTE=Badmoon]I just bought Crossroads (not with Brittney Spears nor Eric Clapton) on DVD :cool:[/QUOTE]
Thats awsome, I just bought it a while ago also. Such a great movie. |
[QUOTE=nicovski]Yeah from what i heard, he got pretty pissed when some reporters approached him and tried to ask Neil about it...[/QUOTE]
If any of you had seen Greendale you would realize how ironic this is EDIT: Avatar change for emphasis. |
Welcome back Schyma :). That sucks that you got grounded.
|
Thank You. :)
It's [I]Greendale[/I] by Neil Young I think. |
[QUOTE=Schyma]Thank You. :)
It's [I]Greendale[/I] by Neil Young I think.[/QUOTE] That it is, the album cover I really don't see your mom's logic for banning you from the computer for using drugs. I mean, shouldn't she ban you from using drugs if she wants you to stop? How does the computer promote drug use? She should ban you from listening to psycheldelic music instead :lol: |
Yea it's definitely Greendale. Is that good?

(I'm not suppose to be on the computer right now) Can't go outside and I've got no bud so she basicly did take away my "drugs". If only there was a cow feild next to me. :upset: She wouldn't take away my music. :p (or at least I hope not) |
[QUOTE=robo2448]Yea it's definitely Greendale. Is that good?[/QUOTE]
I liked it. It is a concept album that tells the story of the Green family, in a fictional California smalltown called "Greendale". The album makes no sense at all, however, if you don't see the show/DVD. The DVD is the album played all the way through as the soundtrack for a film that basically illustrates the album. It is a bit a of a protest piece, reflecting on the 60's with Vietnam and the Bush Administration now. Corruption in the media also plays a huge part, which is why I thought it was funny that Neil got mad at the reporters I'll explain: The Grandson, Jed Green, kills a cop. The town is all aflutter and helicopters and crap start landing in the Grandfather's yard, It would be more informative just to post the lyrics I'd think: |
Well as long as you can still post when you get the chance Schyma. My parents are getting real angry at me now, basically for no reason. This morning they asked me what I did last night, and I told them what I did....and my dad's like "it's always an excuse with you Jeff." I don't understand why they think I'm making excuses, I don't have a reason for an excuse, I was telling them the truth. They are kinda messed up parents.
Is it true Paul McCartney is turning 63 sometime soon? If that's true, I'm excited for when he turns 64. There's gotta be some sort of celebration going on worldwide. |
TV crews and cameras,
they wanted to interview grandpa on the porch. They came through the gate and across the lawn knocking down Edith's Tiki Torch. And grandpa saw them there, looking through the venetian blind. "Those people don't have any respect, so they won't get any of mine." "I don't wanna talk about Jed. I don't watch channel 2 or 6 or 9. I don't have time to talk that fast, and it ain't my crime." "It ain't a privilege to be on TV and it ain't a duty either. The only good thing about TV is shows like 'Leave it to Beaver.'" "'Shows with love and affection', like mama used to say. A little Mayberry living could go a long way." He took Earl's shotgun down from the closet, loaded up both barrels. Walked out on the porch and fired 'm off, and up walked a woman named Carol. "Susan Carol from Early Magazine, I got some questions to ask." "Well you can stick 'm where the sun don't shine!" grandpa said with a gasp. Then he fell face first and let out a sigh, and Edith ran out in shock. He was looking at her from down on the floor, Grandpa looked like he was trying to talk. [B]"That guy just keeps singin'! Can somebody shut him up? I don't know for the life of me where he comes up with that stuff."[/B] They laid his head on a newspaper with a picture of Carmichael on the front page, posing with the little league baseball team, and a seedy shot of Jed on a motorcycle. Grandpa died a hero. Trying to stop the media. Fighting for freedom of silence. Trying to be anonymous. The comment in bold is the grandfather complaining about Neil, but it is Neil who sings it Edith and Earl are Jed's parents, and they live with the Grandpa Carmichael was the cop Jed killed EDIT: To bring my point back, this is probably what the scene was like when the reporters came to interview Neil about his father's death. I can see where he's comming from The music itself is with Crazy Horse and it is heavy grungy stuff, nothing like Harvest Moon. I love it. |
What song is that?
|
They can make or break a person so I wouldn't really feel sorry them.

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]What song is that?[/QUOTE]
Grandpa's Interview I really forgot how cool this album was until just now, I think I will go listen to it again |
[QUOTE=Schyma]They can make or break a person so I wouldn't really feel sorry them.[/QUOTE]
Yeah a lot of artists owe their success to the media. The reason a lot of good artists never broke into the mainstream was because no one knew about them. The media can be helpful for introducing an artist to the world...but after a couple years of being famous no one needs the media anymore and eventually they just get very resentful of it. |
I think the biggest concern is with the 24 hour news networks, and how sensationalistic, corporate, pro-Bush and entertainment-based they are
|
That was a good album. He kind of slowed down after Harvest Moon but now he's back.
*broken arrow was ok. |
His work with Buffilo Springfield was the best in my opinion, but not as good as Harvest, that album is a hybrid of all good folk rock.
|
Meh, Harvest is ok. Its a good place to start. Right now I'm digging Ragged Glory alot. Its more like grungy country stuff with lots of electric guitar stuff. It was one of his most influencial albums of the 90's.

Have you guys seen the video of the guy playing While My Guitar Gently Weeps on the ukulele? It's so good.
