[QUOTE=PinkFreud]oh. haha. fair enough. mind uploading it some other time? i only have the dvd and they leave out young man blues. which is a shame.[/QUOTE]

Yea I'll be glad to do it when I get the chance. You want the whole set or just the bit with Young Man Blues?

They shouldn't have left that off the DVD.

the whole thing. i need to be able to listen to it on my NEW LAPTOP SPEAKERS. :p

No problem. How's the Entwistle solo in 5:15? I've been looking forward to it ever since I saw his solo on the Tommy/Quadrophenia Live Dvd.

its outstanding. his tone's pretty fuzzy which detracts a little bit but in all honesty, he just kept getting better. you know that he was at the top of his game when he died which is why its so much worse.

In the Tommy/Quadrophenia DVD, one of the only things that was disappointing was that his sound was lost a little bit in the mix. He should always be loud.

I wish he was still around, they would still be killer with him. Even though Townshend and Daltrey still do alright.

yeah, but without both moon AND entwistle, i've lost most of the drive to see them. i mean, roger and pete are great but i listened to the who for the drums and bass mostly. and no matter how great their replacements are, it will never be the same.

i miss you john!

Yea I always listen for Moon and Entwistle too, but Daltrey and Townshend still put on a good show. They were great at Live 8.

that's true. theyve still got a great energy. anyway, i'm gonna go watch mortal kombat. merry christmas, buddy.

Same to you. Mortal Kombat kicks a[SIZE="2"]ss[/SIZE].

Tombstone Blues is such a great song.

and I still don't know what I got from my girlfriend (we arent going to exchange gifts until after Christmas break, for some reason).

Those are some pretty cool presents, Illmatic.

For some reason my family gives me lots of candy and socks for Christmas. I also got a pile of books (a lot of F.S. Fitzgerald this year!) a yoga mat, and a fancy chair to use at work. Oh yeah, and a lot of different types of tea, and a new teapot. And a book about the Beatles.

I actually have to go to my Grandmas soon, which means a lot of food..and possibly more presents. Who knows. It's all good.

edit- Oh yeah, Illmatic, do you know what key your harmonica is in?

It is in the key of C.

^What did you get?[QUOTE]So this Tomorrow album is pretty good. I hope all the CDs I got are as good as this.[/QUOTE]I heard it's really good, never could find it. My interest in psychedelia has died down a lot since though.

My e-mail? [email]bjschyma@hotmail.com[/email]

Thanks, Krabs. :)

[QUOTE=EightMilesHigh]This John Coltrane CD I got is major pwnage.[/QUOTE]

Which one did you get?

[QUOTE=Schyma]^What did you get?I heard it's really good, never could find it. My interest in psychedelia has died down a lot since though.[/QUOTE]

I'm still digging through some lesser-known stuff on amazon, seeing what I can dig up.

[QUOTE=Illmatic]Which one did you get?[/QUOTE]

Coltrane and pwnage in the same sentence? He is referring to Giant Steps of course.

Schyma it maybe a while I still have to rip it.
