[QUOTE=EightMilesHigh]Meaning Of Life rocks. I liked the delivery room scene.


There's a d0cumentary on CBC right now about the history of Canadian music. They talked about The Guess Who, Neil Young, The Band, all those guys. Pretty cool.[/QUOTE]

I really wanted to watch that but I had to work tonight!!:mad:

[QUOTE=Led-ZeppelinIV]You know those really psychedelic shirts Hendrix and Barrett used to wear? You know, this kind of thing?

Is there any particular name for shirts like that?[/QUOTE]

I don't know what you'd call that, but it's pretty crazy looking.

This thing finally came through:

So I downloaded a bunch of bootlegs:

Pink Floyd - BBC Archives (2 Discs of very clear bootleg shows)
Frank Zappa - The Lost Amougies Jams (Zappa jamming with Aynsley Dunbar's Retaliation, Pink Floyd, Caravan, Blossom Toes, and Sam Apple Pie)
Luther Allison - North Sea Jazz Festival
Burning Spear - Santa Cruz 1980
Les Claypool's Frog Brigade - Live at the Fillmore (2nd disc is them playing Animals)

Yea, they're cool.

I don't listen to music on my computer as much as I use to.

[QUOTE]Les Claypool's Frog Brigade - Live at the Fillmore (2nd disc is them playing Animals)[/QUOTE]
I have the official CD of that. I want to get the first set too.

[QUOTE=EightMilesHigh]Biggus Dickus :lol:[/QUOTE]

That part is hysterical.

[QUOTE=magicbus]Pink Floyd - BBC Archives (2 Discs of very clear bootleg shows)[/QUOTE]

Do you realize how cool you'd be if you sent this out?

Daily update for my music class: My teacher said that to start off, each of us is going to bring in one of our favorite cds to listen to and talk about in class. Should be sweet. He started it today with Medeski Martin and Wood, who he said was his favorite new band. It was awesome, I really like their sound. Me and two friends are going to try to see them in Danbury, CT over Februrary break. The only problem is that I'd have to drive and I have no idea how to get to Danbury. And there's no chance that my parents will let me drive somewhere that I don't no how to get to at night. I really want to go though because these guys are awesome.

The teacher also encouraged us to go to as many live shows as we could and encouraged us all to check out nugs.

I can't wait to hear this Neil Young bootleg. My mom saw Neil do an acoustic show in 1974 when she was at Wesleyan college. He played a small show there.

I got the Les Claypool Animals show from JPJ. I think it's really good, even though I've never been a fan of Claypool.

[QUOTE=jpj]I have the official CD of that. I want to get the first set too.[/QUOTE]
i have the first set. i might upload it if you want.

robo, indiana-wesleyan? if so, my friend goes there now.

Yeah this set is at llike a coffee house or bar, somewhere small.

Medeski Martin and Wood are pretty cool, I downloaded a couple bootlegs of them off nugs but they got deleted and I didnt have them on my iPod. :-/

Man, I need another HD fast :P

Last night I downloaded:

Grateful Dead - Rockin' the Rhein
Grateful Dead - Postcards of the Hanging
Grateful Dead - Dick's Picks Vol. 22
Grateful Dead - Dick's Picks Vol. 26
Grateful Dead - Two From The Vault
Mitch Hedberg - Strategic Grill Locations
Patti Smith - Horses

:)

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]i have the first set. i might upload it if you want.

No Wesleyan in Connecticut. It's a small liberal arts school completely in the middle of nowhere. I like it though, I'll probably apply there next year. So yeah, I'm jealous my mom got to see Neil acoustic at her college, so it was a really small and intimate setting.

Robo, you're a lucky guy. I wish my school had a class like that. I've never heard of Medeski Martin and Wood, what kind of music is it?

You'd be surprised.

My dad saw so many acts at Grinnell College in Iowa. He lived in Grinnell and saw anybody, you name it. Mostly pretty big, just no Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd or The Who.

Grinnell College was the first college west of the Mississippi :o

yeah what do they sound like robo? i live about a half an hour away from Danbury, maybe ill check them out.

[QUOTE=WelcomeToTheMachine]yeah what do they sound like robo? i live about a half an hour away from Danbury, maybe ill check them out.[/QUOTE]

From the songs I heard, they're like a jazz based jam band. They have a keyboardist, bassist, and drummer. They remind a lot of a jazzy ELP actually and maybe a little like Traffic. Good stuff. Tickets are only $25 so I really want to go.

[QUOTE=Mister Blue Sky]Minister of Silly Walks owns.


I nearly died of laughter during the Roman correction scenes, because it reminded me so much of MX.[/QUOTE]
Did they redo Ministry of Silly Walks for ANFSCD? Of course, being the Python elitist I am, I have the 14-disc boxset of all the original, uncut episodes of Flying Circus, and the episode that is on is just perfect, but I don't remember it on And Now...

Unfortunately, I don't own Life Of Brian, and I've only seen it once, so I'm going to have to assume that was the one where Brian was grafittiing "Romans, get out" or something in Latin on the wall and the guard came up and started screaming at him, correcting him on conjugation and plural nouns and stuff, then he made him rewrite all over the wall until he got it right :lol:

Just George Harrison's presence in that movie makes it A++

Can jpj and Freud combine forces to upload the official verisions of that Claypool show? Cause it's an extreeeeeeeeemely awesome set, just hard to hear on the version I have.

I can upload that Floyd BBC show I have. My favorites off it are "Echoes" and "Careful With That Axe". Roger does the scream for like 20 seconds.

NP: Scientist - Teeth In My Neck

that would be awesome if you could upload the bbc sessions

I need a bigger hard drive, im constantly deleting stuff that i like but dont have room on my computer for to replace with new stuff, 20gb is cutting it.

I have a friend who's really into jam bands, jazz, etc. and he loves MMW. As far as I can tell, they seem pretty awesome. I don't think I've heard more than maybe a song or so.

[QUOTE=BigDawg!!]Just George Harrison's presence in that movie makes it A++[/QUOTE]

Yeah, f[size=2]u[/size]ck plot

I'm happy. I got my stuff from my iPod onto my computer.

That means I didn't lose:

In The Dark
Live/Dead
Reckoning
Shakedown Street
Terrapin Station
Wake of the Flood
Workingman's Dead

Since I'm an idiot, I deleted them when I thought I had them backed up.

Do you have any of their albums on CD?

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]i have a jeff beck bootleg where he covers all hendrix songs.

is this competition going anywhere!?

:p[/QUOTE]
I will give you lots of e-sex, just please for the love of god upload that!

[QUOTE=TheDMV]Do you have any of their albums on CD?[/QUOTE]
Some, a lot of them are pretty hard to find.

I have:

Aoxomoxoa
Anthem of the Sun
American Beauty
Blues For Allah
Workingman's Dead

[QUOTE=JonG]Some, a lot of them are pretty hard to find.[/QUOTE]

That sucks, if I had enough cash, I could probably go to a few stores and get all of their studio catalouge, plus a few of the more popular live ones. The stores near me always have them.

Damn, I wish they did. All they have is American Beauty and Workingman's.

I was so happy when I found Blues For Allah.

I might go album shopping tonight, try to find some more.

Hey Jon could you get on AIM I'm having troubles :S.

I hate trying to find good CDs for Classic Rock. All I ever find is Greatest Hits CDs and the most popular/mainstream albums. I really only have a couple CDs from each of my favourite bands, but then I have a lot of their albums on vinyl. It's a lot easier to find rare albums on vinyl than on CD, because if the album isn't as successful for some reason then they wouldn't make as many on CD. That's actually just a guess.

Same with me. I can't stand finding Greatest Hits. That's pretty much all my mom looks for.

I think I'm going to go tonight.

I also can't stand places with microscopic blues/jazz sections. And no reggae.

eh reggea's not my thing, i cant get into The Harder They Come at all

[QUOTE=WelcomeToTheMachine]eh reggea's not my thing, i cant get into The Harder They Come at all[/QUOTE]
Shame on you.

It's an excellent album.

I'm not that big of a fan of that album either.

I'll take Marley, Big Youth or Burning Spear over that album anyday.

Speaking of Marley, what exactly is Rastafarianism? I mean, what do they worship, basic beliefs, etc.? We're doing a project on a religion in World Cultures, and on the list was Rastafarianism, and I never knew it was a religion till then. I'd really like to hear about it.

(Since someone might care, I'm doing Norse [Viking] mythology as my religion, there are some pretty awesome myths and stuff, and some really gory stuff too, like the ocean was created when the first three Aesir gods pushed the giant frost god Ymir into a huge gaping pit called Gigungagap, and there was so much brine from his wounds it filled the gap and overflowed. So we're surfing in a puddle of festering giant's blood.)

On the subject of reggae, has anyone heard or listened to Matisyahu? He's pretty good.

yeah. matisyahu's cool. i think pretty much everyone in here has at least heard it thanks to badmoon.

nice avatar. not my favorite of theirs but still cool.

Yeah, Matisyahu is good.

I like him, I have both of his albums.

I can't wait for "Hope" or whatever the new one's called.

[QUOTE=::Entwistle::]On the subject of reggae, has anyone heard or listened to Matisyahu? He's pretty good.[/QUOTE]

I've never heard a thing by him, mind recomending something?

I have both of Matisyahu's albums. I prefer Live at Stubbs but both are pretty good. For some reason, Matisyahu has quickly become incredibly trendy and popular at my school. Nearly as big as OAR, DMB, Dispatch and that stuff. I hate that, but I still enjoy his music.

[QUOTE=RockAndRoll]Indeed, have you ever caught them live?[/QUOTE]

No, but my dad did. he said they rocked the house.

Yeah that is a great album I love embryo off that its one of the more underrated Pink Floyd songs I think.
