So far, I've downloaded 21st Century Shizoid Man, I Talk to the Wind, and Epitaph. Each song is great. There are just so many more elements to each of the songs than most music. :p Really liking the sound. :-D

[QUOTE=Cain]You know, I never quite appreciated just how amazing Keith Moon was. But now I've seen the Isle of Wight concert on TV and he blows me away, as does the rest of the band. I've always found their recordings thoroughly unimpressive and overrated, but **** they can play. Bands don't perform the way they did anymore. They just go all out. And Keith Moon is UNBELIEVABLE, intense, high-energy performance.[/QUOTE]

I came in at the right time. I was also watching the Isle of Wight show (I own it on Dvd, naturally. The difference is that I watch is regularly and you've just seen it). But back on topic, The Who live is one of rock's greatest accomplishments (in my opinion, obviously). You can feel the energy coming out of Townshend's windmills, Moons blaring speed and fills, and Daltrey's powerful vocals. Then after you get past seeing Pete jump around the stage and Moon's hands flying around, you can actually listen to Entwistle's amazing bass performances.

Although I don't think The Who's recordings are unimpressive (I think exactly the opposite) I do agree with the point I think you're making here, which is that they were much more of a live band. I appreciate their studio work for different qualities, but in terms of rock 'n roll, pure energy, volume, etc, The Who's live show is quite an experience that is very hard to imitate.

You might be interested in Live at Leeds (CD), the sound quality is much better and even though it isn't quite the same as seeing it, it still has basically the same effect. I could upload it/send it to you if you're interested.

Out of curiosity, has anyone seen DM around lately? I was thinking about possibly working on an FA with him if he's been around :-\

Drugstep 07-23-2005 01:59 AM

Pete's last post was three days ago, so he hasn't really been around.

I'd try to hit him up via AIM. His screen name is Viking Vs Pirate.

Permanent Solution 07-23-2005 02:04 AM

Ah, I know his SN...but I'm not always on AIM, and I use Express too so I never know when people sign on or off.

Drugstep 07-23-2005 02:08 AM

My AIM makes annoying pop-ups when people get on and off.

I think I'll hate my life Saturday, Sunday will be cool, Monday will suck a little and Tuesday will be my typical day, I'll hate my life on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday will be typical. I've got my week planned out.


EDIT: The eagle flies on Friday, babe, and Saturday I go out to play.

He said he'd be back in a week about two days ago.

Hello thread.

I went and saw Fantastic 4 last night, and thought it was really good. There was alot of people at the movie theater, which was unusual even for a Friday night.

I did the same thing last night, and i agree, and also cant wait for a sequel, now that all the formal crap of them becoming superheros is out of the way, we can see just some quality fantastic four stuff.

Riva 07-23-2005 09:13 AM

Dr. Doom isn't nearly as cool as he should be in that movie. Honestly, where was the accent?

Taste_My_Scythe 07-23-2005 09:14 AM

I played the Fantastic 4 PS2 game with the kid I babysit last night. It was pretty cool. Easy, but cool.

Indeed! This movie it's fair share of action, so I can't imagine how much they could add into a sequel.

Riva: I was wondering that too! :confused:

Spotlight #13 is ready to go.

Cain, you might want to check these guys out. You might like the Celtic influence on their new material like Tree and the Longing for the Woods trilogy.

I thought Fantastic 4 was really pedestrian...but it was helped by the fact that Jessica Alba in a skintight suit was in it. :naughty:

I thought she was really hot in the scene where she had glasses on. I'm a sucker for blonde women with glasses. :)

Yea he definitely should've been cooler. They spent too much time on his transformation and not enough time on him pwning.

Apocalyptic Raids 07-23-2005 10:33 AM

To be honest, I've never found Jessica Alba that attractive.

That being said, I wouldn't say no :D

I dont think that smokin is a strong enough word for her in that movie, and on top of that Sin City is an incredible film. So really, it is win/win

So, Loughborough owns for several things:

1) Albums I cant find anywhere (castle records ownage, Porcupine tree collection start :) )
2) Cheap acoustic guitars
3) Family drinking contests

Excuse my entrance, im in high spirits at the moment

clearvision 07-23-2005 12:36 PM

Alba looked amazing throughout. I thought the film was OK, but not one I would watch again too soon.

Dr. Jake Destructo 07-23-2005 01:53 PM

All this Jessica Alba talk is reminding of our late-night AIM chats. :p

Ben, what PT albums did you pick up? I've only got [I]Deadwing[/I] and [I]In Absentia[/I]. Both make me go :amaze: I really need to get a hold of some of their earlier, more psychadelic material, but I'm really having troubles finding it anywhere.

So, I just ordered 15 CDs from Amazon for my birthday.
