My dad alway talked about how amazing ELP were, I was litening to Brain Salad Surgery and got to thinking that as impressive as it is now, it must have been positively mind-blowing in the 70's, before those kinds of synthesisers became cheesy. Now I don't really understand why he speaks so highly of them ("The best modern composers of our time" etc) He must have had his mind blown back in the 70's and still remebers it that way

I'm praying the tickets aren't that much. I might go up to 150 bucks, but definitely not more than that.

Broken Arrow 09-07-2005 02:12 PM

Ach!!

Cream prices!

I'd rather pay $50 to see Clapton, if the chance arose. But if Neil tours I dont expect his prices to be as high.

DeusExMachina 09-07-2005 02:15 PM

ELP are good. I love their version of Fanfare for the Common Man, and the Peter Gunn Theme.

Have you ever had that feeling when you're listining to a song it's the best time and setting for that particular sound at the time? I was in the back of my bus with about 20 or more Mexicans talking, laughing and hanging out and I was sitting there listining to "El Cuarto de Tula" by the Buena Vista Social Club and it hit me. This is the most perfect song to listin to at this particular moment and for now-on this song will never be as perfect. Even though their not Cuban that latin atmosphere was just great for that song. It's kind of like my relationship with "The Gnome" and shrooming or [I]Workingman's Dead[/I] and driving on a snowy interstate. So now I'm extremly addicted to the Buena Vista Social Club right now. :)

$2000 to see a complete Beatles reunion? Pah, I'd sell my soul and sleep with 20,000 AIDS infected men to see that. You lose :cool:

robo2448 09-07-2005 03:25 PM

Anyone in hear like Willie Nelson? Shotgun Willie's a pretty good album, but that's all I've heard by him. What's his best cd? Badmoon probably likes him.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 09-07-2005 03:57 PM

Have I ever mentioned we don't have enough Zappa talk in here? I'm really digging him with the Mothers of Invention right now. From what I can tell no-one in here digs the Mothers.

I think [I]We're Only in It for Money[/I] is AMAZING while other people can't stand it. What's everyone's opinion on it?

JonG 09-07-2005 04:03 PM

I'm currently obsessed with Frank and the Mothers.

Good stuff. Very original. I have 25 albums, and getting larger by the day.

We're Only In It For The Money is a great album.

I will upload any if needed :)

WelcomeToTheMachine 09-07-2005 04:06 PM

Hey JonG, do you think you could upload WOITFTM? i heard its great but donthave it :upset:

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 09-07-2005 04:24 PM

What is it about collecting as much Zappa as possible? :amaze:

I'm just curious I've seen like 5 people now trying to obtain all 63 something albums. I never really understood collecting period. Like I said I'm just curious.

I'm getting his early stuff. I don't bother much with Live/Bootleg things. I just want to see everything he made in his short career.

Jacaranda 09-07-2005 04:29 PM

Doesn't he have like 200 albums?

JonG 09-07-2005 04:33 PM

[QUOTE=Jacaranda]Doesn't he have like 200 albums?[/QUOTE]
I think he made like 71 or so. 63 studio albums, I think someone said once.

Jacaranda 09-07-2005 04:34 PM

I could never get into him for whatever reason but I was recommended Hot Rats so I suppose I should listen to it.

I'm talking about span of life.

Freak Out! came out in '66, he died in '93.


Not that long of a lifetime.

Hot Rats is a great album. I love Peaches en Regalia.

clapton was 90 when i saw him. and it was worth every penny. but then again, i also paid like 73 for the festival with buddy guy, the black crowes, and the allman brothers and guy was probably the best concert ive ever been to.

My point here is, that it isn't $2000.

jpj 09-07-2005 05:21 PM

When Neil tours for his new album, the best tickets will probably be about $50. Neil is the workingman's musician.

I'd pay $2000 for a show if and only if Led Zeppelin, The Dead, Pink Floyd, and ABB did a show together with all original members including the dead ones (they'd be alive for the show of course).

Indeed. Maybe even I would have a chance at going :eek:

He's pretty cool, but I don't know too much about him or his music.
