[QUOTE=PinkFreud]god, i wish there was a record store that i could get a job at.[/QUOTE]

That'd be like the perfect job for me. It'd be like High Fidelity.

I had Thanksgiving a while back, you crazy Americans.

np: The Beatles - Back In The U.S.S.R.

Right now, I have gasoline all over my hands. It's not going away after a few washes. I'm afraid that I'll lose more brain cells than most of the people in here :p

Anyone like Elliott Smith?

They did 'Rain Fall Down,' something off thier new album, then did 'It's Only Rock And Roll.' ABC put them on commercial halfway into their last song :upset:

I downloaded a couple of his songs awhile back. Reminds me of that depressed Nick Drake voice.

I don't like "Rain Fall Down" More disco experimentation, and I just find the song boring. I do like their new album a lot though. Doesn't compare to their late sixties/ early seventies stuff, but still very good, probably 4/5.

Everyone buy the Bruce Springsteen Born To Run 30th Anniversary edition. It has a live DVD, like 2.5 hours long and just incredible. The man has so much energy, just awesome performance. Buy it, even though it's not cheap.

Edit- I was going to use Brainwashed as an avatar. At least I have a sweet picture of George looking like Jesus even if it doesn't resize well.

Everyone has new avatars now, it's hard to tell who is who. I don't read screen names anymore, I just tell by avatars.

The first time I heard that song, I liked it. It sounds like something that could have made it on to Some Girls. It's got that disco kind of feel like "Miss You" IMO.

Rough Justice is prolly the sweetest song on there :thumb:

Ha I love Miss You. I just find Rain Fall Down boring.

Bruce Springsteen's DVD performance is so awesome. He's got to be one of the 5 most energetic performers ever.

I can't wait till Pink Floyd's Pulse comes out on DVD. If anybody hasn't heard the album yet, I suggest you go get it right now. It's very very good...

JonG 11-23-2005 09:17 PM

Haha, that's cool.

I can't stand Bruce Springsteen :)

Bruce Springsteen puts on a fantastic live show. Plus, I love his writing style.

[QUOTE=jpj]I'm not entirely sure where you're coming from.

EDIT: It's ****ing snowing here. I think this will be the first time in my lifetime that we're gonna have a white Thanksgiving, and I'm pumped! Just thought you guys should know.[/QUOTE]

When you said "Hey Victa!" I thought you were imitating this guy from the movie Smoke Signals. It's a low budget Native American movie that we always watch in school...the nerdy friend constantly says "Hey Victor!" (the main character is named Victor), but his accent makes it sound like Victa!

It was suprisingly nice out today....we had like two feet of snow about a week or so ago and now it's almost all melted.

Bruce Springsteen is great, especially live! I love his Born to Run album...I wish I had it on vinyl. I have Born in the USA, but I don't like it as much.

edit - Did I mention I taught one of my students the rhythm and lead parts to St. Stephen and we jammed together for like forty five minutes? It was awesome. I wish some of my friends were actual good musicians. I wish I could find the tab to the live version...I had to print off the studio version and then try and show him all the changes because the live version is so much better.

No, Livewired's avatar was of Victor Wooten, who has a song called "Hey Victa!", or at least it's something he does live. He's also the bassist for Bela Fleck and the Flecktones.

DeusExMachina 11-23-2005 10:56 PM

<3 Bela Fleck

I'm not familiar with Bruce Springsteen's stuff, unfortunately. I know some, but not much.

dr._feelgood 11-23-2005 10:59 PM

My mom loves Springsteen, so I know alot of his stuff. Some of it's allright.

blue3 11-23-2005 11:34 PM

I don't listen to Bruce Springsteen much.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 11-24-2005 12:09 AM

I woke up to one hell of a day! As soon as I woke, I was in major upper body pain, there was no-one in the house so I ran up stairs turned off the internet so I could call my mom. She said to hold on while she calls my dad. Well my dad was 100 miles away at this time and my mom was on the other side of town so neither of them were any help so my dad ended up calling 911. I ended up in a bed for 5 hours and it was all because of a severe case of stomach acid. Hurt like hell! Although, it ended being a cool day though.

Albums I got:

Hail to the Theif – Radiohead
Unchained - Johnny Cash
Red Hot Chili Peppers – The Uplift Mofo Party Plan
The Great Twenty-Eight – Chuck Berry :cool:
…and I came back to a downloaded [I]Catch a Fire[/I] by Bob Marley

Has everyone put in their vote? If not, please do so now. :)

Illmatic 11-24-2005 12:33 AM

Wow, that's pretty weird. Did they find out how you got the stomach acid?

Follow-up joke: I think that's the only acid that Schyma hasn't enjoyed :p

Leper 11-24-2005 12:46 AM

I don't like Bruce Springsteen, his voice bothers me. I've always considered John Mellencamp as the better version of Bruce Springsteen.

NP: Yes- And You And I: The Preacher The Teacher

Is it just me or does Jon Anderson sound like Sting in this song?

blue3 11-24-2005 12:50 AM

5 hours.. That must've sucked.

How's that Radiohead album?

I haven't put my vote in yet.

Broken Arrow 11-24-2005 07:39 AM

Snow Day!!

/doesn't like Springstein

Although the guitarist for his E Street Band got his start with Neil Young. You can hear Nils Loftgren on such recordings as:

[I]After the Goldrush[/I]
[I]Tonight's the Night[/I]
and more.

He plays the piano on "Southern Man"(his first time ever playing piano) and plays guitar on quite a few songs on [I]Tonights the Night[/I]

Pah, silly snow day! I'm not going to school because it's Thanksgiving! But it did snow here too.

Broken Arrow 11-24-2005 09:26 AM

Yeah we were done with Thanksgiving Day more than a month ago.

Meh, I still get the day off.

That is correct.

Lovely song.

Jacaranda 11-24-2005 01:42 PM

Whoa, hey not to change subjects but I'm reading this pretty good book about Psychedelic Rock and they have top Psychedelic Rock albums of all time so I thought I'd share.
1. The Beatles - [I]Revolver[/I]
2. The Beach Boys - [I]Pet Sounds[/I]
3. The Velvet Underground - [I]The Velvet Underground and Nico[/I]
4. My Bloody Valentine - [I]Loveless[/I]
5. Pink Floyd - [I]Wish You Were Here[/I]
6. The 13th Floor Elevators - [I]The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators/Live[/I]
7. The Flaming Lips - [I]Transmissions From the Satellite Heart[/I]
8. Neutral Milk Hotel - [I]In the Aeroplane Over the Sea[/I]
9. Captain Beefheart - [I]Trout Mask Replica[/I]
10. Brain Eno - [I]Another Green World[/I]
11. Pink Floyd - [I]The Piper at the Gates of Dawn[/I]
24. The Rolling Stones - [I]Their Satanic Majesties Request[/I] :upset:

Not a bad list at all they also have a top 10 Beatles songs, top 10 Velvet Underground songs, 10 Rolling Stones songs, and ten American Garage songs; all which are fairly good..

Badmoon 11-24-2005 01:45 PM

I don't think Loveless should be on that list.

temporary 11-24-2005 01:48 PM

[QUOTE=DeusExMachina]<3 Bela Fleck[/QUOTE]

Bella Fleck is amazing, I didn't know anyone in here listened to him.

Happy turkey day everyone! :)

Badmoon 11-24-2005 01:58 PM

I use to like Bela Fleck, but have slowly gotten less interested.
