[QUOTE=JonG]Man, I hope I can go to Gov't Mule. I have no car, which is a set-back. The douchebags at my school don't know who it is. My dad is lazy, but he does like the music I do.

What's Bob Weirs obsession with under-age Mexican girls?

Yeah, most people at my school have horrible taste in music, which I mean with all seriousness, but a few might go if I convince them.

In El Paso as well. :)

If 'moon reads this, who do you prefer in vocals. Jerry or Bobby?

Actually, anybody. I want to hear what you people like.

I really want to see these movies:
Taxi Driver
Requiem for a Dream
Miller's Crossing

PinkFreud 03-07-2006 05:36 PM

Now that I know you haven't seen the one at the top of your list, I can hate you. Bastard.

Seriously, one of the greatest movies ever. Really.

JonG 03-07-2006 05:38 PM

I saw it on I Love 1976 the other night, and it looked awesome. I love Deniro when he is psycho.

Taxi Driver is a great movie. It's my number one, tied with Fight Club.

Last night I also watched An American Werewolf in London. Have you guys seen it? It's vicious, but also really awesome.

JonG 03-07-2006 05:51 PM

Heh, that reminds me of Warren Zevon.

He's a funny guy.

That movie's good.

Scuba_Steve 03-07-2006 05:51 PM

I watched wedding crashers on the weekend.

I found it pretty good considering I was expecting it to suck.

[QUOTE=Badmoon]It amazes me how some of you do not grow tired of some albums or bands. Like Pink Floyd or Cream. I definitely cannot listen to Disraeli Gears and Cream or especially Wish You Were Here and Pink Floyd without getting so bored or annoyed because I've heard them so much.[/QUOTE]
Actually I get bored of tons of bands. I rarley listen to the Doors anymore altough I will soon, I just always take breaks from bands. Also Wish You Were Here is an album I cannot bore myself with, and the rest of the albums (besides Doolittle and Rubber Soul) I hadn't listened to in their entirety lately.

But yeah, I get tired with music but the classics are hard to get tired of. ;)

jpj 03-07-2006 05:52 PM

On the topic of movies, I just watched And Now for Something Completely Different, and oh my fu[SIZE="2"]c[/SIZE]king God! I don't think I've ever laughed as hard as I did on the "Upper Class Twit of the Year" sketch :lol:



I like Bob and Jerry equally. It's just that their voices fit with different songs.

BigTrav415 03-07-2006 06:08 PM

Good, good... a fellow Python fan.

"How Not To Be Seen" :lol:

I like Bob's voice better from what I can tell.

Badmoon 03-07-2006 06:37 PM

[QUOTE]Jerry or Bobby?[/QUOTE]

Jerry no doubt. Bob doesn't even come close. :cool:

[QUOTE]Taxi Driver
Requiem for a Dream
Miller's Crossing[/QUOTE]

Taxi Driver:

I just sold it for money, but it's a great movie. DeNiro owns.


Requiem for a Dream:

Overrated if you ask me; interesting though.


Miller's Crossing:

One of the best mobster movies, and it's good to see a crime film focusing on the Irish syndicates in Boston. One of the best Coen movies too if you ask me, along with the Big Lebowski.

Scuba_Steve 03-07-2006 06:39 PM

so guys, guess who is going to see buddy guy in a couple of weeks?




me.

MBS 03-07-2006 06:39 PM

There's a video of the How Not To Been Seen sketch except done on Halo 2. It's pretty funny, I'll try to find it later.

PinkFreud 03-07-2006 06:41 PM

I too have gotten bored of bands. Death Cab For Cutie, Arctic Monkeys (already), Mahavishnu Orchestra, and others. I still listen to them on occasion but the first and last used to be among my favorite bands. Weird.

Edit: DDM, have a ball at that, man. He was unbelievable when I went to see him. Possibly my favorite concert thus far. Such a great showman who also happens to be amazing with a guitar.

Led-ZeppelinIV 03-07-2006 06:45 PM

[QUOTE=BigTrav415]I have the vinyl of Woodstock :cool: Just nothing to play it on :([/QUOTE]
Everybody on this planet has Woodstock on vinyl. Absolutely every single one of my friends has it.

Jer-bear and Bobby are both great, Weir's an awesome blues singer. It's hard to choose which is better because the thing I like most about the Dead is how their voices compliment each other.

And I just finished downloading everysingle episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus. The Mollusk sketch is the best one. (also Spam and Ministry of Silly Walks)

Pigpen>Bobby in blues singing.

Easily.

Glitterati 03-07-2006 07:15 PM

I prefer Jerry singing, though I'm kind of a Dead n00b.

See Taxi Driver immediately. Amazing film.

Miller's Crossing is pretty damn good, too. Coen brothers + gangster movie genre = awesome film.

I haven't seen Requiem, and I don't really plan to either :-/

I saw an awesome jacket on Sunday that looked like DeNiro's from Taxi Driver, too bad it was sixty dollars.

Badmoon 03-07-2006 07:20 PM

I think Jerry's a better Blues singer too. He seems much more convincing IMO.

PinkFreud 03-07-2006 07:26 PM

Requiem For A Dream is at least good enough to merit seeing it once. A tad overhyped though.

Scorcese is a master. I recently picked up the Raging Bull 2 disc special edition for 13 bucks.

Illmatic 03-07-2006 07:26 PM

Taxi Driver is great, and I think it's a testament to Martin Scorcese that he can make a movie like that and have it still not be one of his three best.

robo2448 03-07-2006 07:29 PM

Pigpen definitely had the most bluesy voice. I think Pigpen, Jerry, and Weir are all solid singers but none of them are amazing or anything. Just solid and fit the band well.

I like Stevie Wonder.

Glitterati 03-07-2006 07:29 PM

[QUOTE=Illmatic]How many people here like Stevie Wonder?[/QUOTE]

*raises hand*

I love him. He can be politically active while still being very upbeat and catchy.

I sent out Songs In The Key Of Life a while ago.

JonG 03-07-2006 07:30 PM

I have [I]Songs in the Key of Life[/I]. It's great.

Illmatic 03-07-2006 07:32 PM

I know someone who says he likes Stevie Wonder yet says he hasn't heard "Superstition".

Tell me if that makes sense.

PinkFreud 03-07-2006 07:40 PM

[QUOTE=Illmatic]Taxi Driver is great, and I think it's a testament to Martin Scorcese that he can make a movie like that and have it still not be one of his three best.[/QUOTE]
You don't think it's in his top 3? What would you choices be?

I'd say Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, and either Mean Streets or Goodfellas.

I'm neutral on Stevie Wonder. I must be the only one here. I can see why other people love him but he doesn't strike me right.

robo2448 03-07-2006 07:42 PM

Scorsese:

1. No Direction Home
2. Goodfellas
3. Raging Bull

Songs in the Key of Life is good stuff. Stevie's got a great soulful voice. I like his often idealist lyrics too.

MBS 03-07-2006 07:42 PM

Songs in the Key of Life is such a cool album, it's got a great groove to it. :cool:

jpj 03-07-2006 07:42 PM

I only have Songs In the Key of Life, but I really like it. I've been meaning to pick up Innervisions for like 6 months now.

Badmoon 03-07-2006 07:48 PM

1. Goodfellas
2. Taxi Driver
3. The King of Comedy
4. Gangs of New York
5. Mean Streets
