[QUOTE=Badmoon]Can you explain what is so crazy about Clapton's Blues?[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't call it crazy, but then again i don't think music ahs to be crazy. But you and I both know that he was part of a major change in music. Music like the stuff he did with Cream was new, it was fresh, and it inspired musicians, Hendrix being one of them that took on that same blues based hard rock style. Clapton was one of the british performers who took to american blues when it made it's way over. From there he (and others) took their own approach to it giving it a more rocky sound, a harder sound, and a more electric sound. I would say the butt end of that movement is what you see in Hendrix and Randolph.

It may be fresh in a way. But when I listen to it, and I hear a 12 bar Blues progression, and maybe a few effects like a wah added in. Some may be amazed by that, but I am not.

When I hear Randolph, I hear a guy on a Country instrument going over the top on each solo, and singing the hell out of himself on a microphone. And playing for a half of an hour.

Not all of it is fresh. But some was, alot was. He does some good old fashion blues but he also does some of his fresh stuff.

Yea, but the wah sure is cool. (Tales Of Brave Ulysses)

When I hear Randolph I hear a great musician that loves to go over the top. Is over the top always better though? No! And although he loves to go over the top I still do not find him to be musically on par with clapton. There were some bits at the concert that were too repetitive as well.

Has anyone seen "the rolling stone" magazines top 500 song, I think it's great that Bob Dylan made number one but i was looking through it and dr. dre made it, WTF IS THAT RAP ON GREATEST SONGS THAT BS!

elitism is bad.

I'm off now though.

It's a mainstream music magazine I guess. 99% of their lists are mainstream and then they throw in a few unkown songs or something in an attempt to make people think that they aren't lame.

I think they put Like a Rolling Stone #1 because their name is Rolling Stone. Same with Satisfaction at #3, GOD **** ATTENTION WHORES :mad:

No Grateful Dead. :(

Go here and go to Zepp Thing for a weird treat.:cool:

EDIT- 1000th post in thread!!1!!!!!11!11 w00Tz0rZ[/QUOTE]

How do you have 1000? :eek:

I only have 444. I'm slippin.

And I really like this Nugs site. I've heard of Robert Randolph and the Family Band from a friend, but I didn't know they played this kind of music, cause he likes OAR and Dave Matthews and stuff.

But this Press On song is really cool. :thumb:

[QUOTE=Badmoon]No Grateful Dead. :([/QUOTE]

That's an injustice! The hippies will protest! (as the always do)

Actually that is stupid. 500 songs and no Grateful Dead...

No, don't compare any of the bands on that site to OAR and DMB. Randolph and the others have still have their dignity.

I actually may get a chance to see Randolph at Navy Pier on New Years eve with Big Head Todd & The Monsters :D.

That's why I was suprised when I heard all the bluesy guitar from them. I figured they were just another band like OAR. But I really like this. I'm also listening to Les Claypool. Badmoon do you know how I can download this Phish set so I can burn it?


Which brings me to another point. Have you guys heard of Umphrey's McGee? One cd of their's I really liked, I'll have to find out the name. I was reminded cause they played this year at Bonnaroo.

Oh and thanks to rock not roll for the explaination yesterday, now i rep everyone I see in this thread

/continues to wait for new tele to arrive in the mail.

I believed you'd have to convert the files. I don't know to what, and I don't know how. Sorry :(

Is it an audio stream? if for you would have to record from your computers soundcard in real time to a format you can burn

^ I don't know.

Yeah, great band.

No I'm talking about the asp files that open right in my internet window. I thought there might be another file type I could download. But its ok.

And pics of the new tele! :thumb: (when it gets to you)

^^ Yea man. This sounds like a sweet festival. I might end up going next year.

Ok, its a blonde MIM one with a maple fretboard, you would have to explain where i could upload then......

[QUOTE=Badmoon]What?[/QUOTE]

What, your music knowledge isn't infinite?:thumb:

You could sign up for a photobucket account and then just post us to your photo page. I love the butterscotch blonde teles. I think it looks best like that.

I was also surprised to see Badmoon [i]asking[/i] the question for once.. :p

What's wrong with OAR and DMB?

[QUOTE=Creedence Clearwater]What, your music knowledge isn't infinite?:thumb:[/QUOTE]

What the hell are you talking about? What new Telecaster?

[QUOTE=jpjrulestheworld]What's wrong with OAR and DMB?[/QUOTE]

They're nothing like the other bands and I really don't like them.

DMB are hypocrites, and OAR are just fruity, in my opinion.

Yea OAR is the kind of music the stoner/preppy kids listen to. They play their cd in Hollister.

I just think like to listen to them occasionally because it's just fun and happy music, and I like feeling happy :)

[QUOTE=Badmoon]What the hell are you talking about? What new Telecaster?[/QUOTE]

The new tele i am waiting to come in the mail, I hide details about in the bottom of my previous posts.

Oh, and there were inaudable whispers when you went to the toilet
