[QUOTE=Badmoon]Let me actually see if I have it on disc -- can't actually remember if I do.

I'll get back to you on that with an edit.

EDIT: Can't find. So if you're up for it, upload it whenever. :)[/QUOTE]
Alright, I'll get it when I get home tomorrow.

1:30 dismissal tomorrow + no school Friday = awesome.

psh I've been out since last Friday and don't go back till Monday. It's awesome. But this vacation is why we got just a pathetic week off for Christmas.

But I have to go on college visiting binge these last couple days. Not that bad actually. When I was eating lunch in the cafeteria at Trinity College in Connecticut they were cranking Dear Mr. Fantasy in the background:cool:

I just sent out the Erkin Koray album. Everyone download it, you will be pleased.

EDIT: Badmoon, I keep looking at your avatar and thinking it's Peter Sellers from Dr. Strangelove.

I thought this was kind of interesting.

I kind of got into classic rock on my own, and I haven't been really successful at converting my friends that well. Except one, who I would never guess would. I was talking to him and he said he downloaded a file with 36 Grateful Dead albums :amaze: He said he was just getting into them, but he liked them. I quickly drew up a quick list of albums to download. I wonder if he has yet...

I don't like it... I like that listening to classic rock makes me kind of unique. I mean I love having guys like we do on here who are knowledgeable about it and are deep into classic rock and can discuss it intelligently. But I hate people who have 1 song by Led Zeppelin or AC/DC and think their incredibly cool classic rock experts. I have a few friends who are open-minded and deeply into music like me which is awesome, but a lot of people are just into AC/DC and Led Zeppelin to follow the classic rock trend.

I liked the quote from George Thorogood a lot though about cleaning up his setlist- "cocain blues... maybe not." But Steve Perry was wrong about Journey, people dissed them back then, and sorry Steve, but we still do now.

It's not exactly new. I've been listening to Johnny Cash since....well, at the very youngest, six.

All of my friends listen to tons of different types of music. It's usually a mix of rock, punk, or electronic stuff...but no one complains when someone puts on jazz or folk. I have this one friend who has a shirt that says "die you hippie bastards" and it shows a bunch of punk type guys sitting around drinking alcohol....well we were playing Live Dead one time and I think she liked it more than anyone else. I was pretty impressed.

Seafroggys 02-22-2006 12:52 AM

yeah a lot of my good high school buds listen to lots of different types of music....more then me actually....well, except for Metallica, all the bands on my playlist are Classic Rock!

[QUOTE=TheDMV]Has anyone seen Heart of Gold yet? Apparently it's got 4 stars.

No I haven't seen it yet, but I desperately want to!

Apparently he mentions Winnipeg...:)

Most of my friends are somewhat into CR, but they haven't really delved that deep into it yet.

PinkFreud 02-22-2006 03:41 PM

guess who just downloaded the leaked guns n roses album? allen did!

Guess who Allen's gonna upload it for! Me! Or you could just point me in the direction of a link to it.


I just heard on the radio that Roger Waters is touring with Nick Mason this summer. They're gonna be playing DSOTM in it's entirety, but so far they only have dates in France. So we have David Gilmour touring with Richard Wright in North America, but only in 5 cities, and Roger Waters with Nick Mason, but only in fuc[SIZE="2"]king[/SIZE] France.

Leper 02-22-2006 04:17 PM

Even despite playing DSotM, I'd go to see Gilmour and Wright over Waters and Mason if I had to choose.

MBS 02-22-2006 05:09 PM

I heard IRS on the radio last night. Ugh, such a terrible song. Axl has really lost it, it sounds nothing like anything from Appetite from Destruction. Appetite had so much more of a heavier sound.

BlackDeathMetalJazz or really ANYTHING else please- 02-22-2006 05:34 PM

Classic Rock in my school has become pretty popular. You could walk around my school and see that about 15% of white males have at least one Classic Rock related shirt, it seems like it's only growing in popularity too. I really have no problem with it though although I hate to see people like my big brother (who doesn't know a damn thing) wear a Doors shirt, it's pretty frustrating. My friends listen to mostly Classic Rock like Pink Floyd, The Doors, The Beatles, Grateful Dead...etc and sometimes I'll introduce them to other genres. (Django Reinhardt was a huge hit with them) Although one of my friends always has a huge dispute over Led Zeppelin with me and that seems to be the only major band me and him just can't agree on. I'm the one they always come to for musical advice, I've even got one of my friends to hate Led Zeppelin, like a bunch of garage psychedelia, and love Syd Barrett. :cool:

Did anyone know Ray Davies just came out with an album? I've heard it's really good from several accounts.

Does anyone else like The United States of America? I feel like I'm the only one (in here) who appreciates them. I think their s/t has to be one of the greatest Psychedelic albums.

MX is really funky right now, am I the only one?

Yea, right after I posted that I went to that site and was like :eek:

[QUOTE]Did anyone know Ray Davies just came out with an album? I've heard it's really good from several accounts.[/QUOTE]
I knew, but I forget where I heard about it. Derek Trucks has a new album too, which is probably awesome.

PinkFreud 02-22-2006 06:43 PM

derek trucks has a new one? can't wait to pick it up. i loved his cover of "drown in my own tears" off of soul serenade with gregg allman. i might even like it more than buckley's version.

Krabsworth 02-22-2006 10:15 PM

Wow Mx must've gotten owned while I was away...

MBS 02-22-2006 10:16 PM

It's slower than crap today. I hope the issue's resolved though.

RockAndRoll 02-22-2006 11:14 PM

Speaking of new albums I'm interested in hearing the new Who album when it comes out. I hope they come by here when they tour in the fall.

seerofgoodpeople 02-22-2006 11:27 PM

what about the Yardbirds?
 
you know i've been hearing a lot of great bands but i dont know if its just me or is everyone forgetting the great british giants who started it all? i mean we wouldn't have clapton jeff beck or led zeppelin if it wasnt for the yardbirds. or we probably wouldnt have van halen if not for the kinks(considering their first big break was with a kinks song) i dont know as i said it could be just me.

thickasabrick 02-23-2006 12:11 AM

I soooo hungry....


I have an old vinyl album called The History of British Rock volume 1 or something alone those lines..it's pretty awesome. It's got all your basic bands/artists from the sixties and maybe even seventies.

Against Miik! 02-23-2006 12:29 AM

i neeeeed smoke

I ran out today and I was gonna get some after school but I passed out and woke up at like 10 at night and now I have to wait till after school tommorow. ghey. Smoking is fun though. Smoking anything really, short of crack I guess. Theres this hot girl that sits next to me in a class and shes going through her purse and I see a pack of Marlboro Lights in there and i'm all like wtf mate?

PinkFreud 02-23-2006 12:40 AM

I don't know that much by the Yardbirds. I've been meaning to get into them though. I've heard a couple songs by them that I really like.

Pretty much everyone here likes the Kinks though.
