I Am Jimmy Page has read it, I think.[/QUOTE]
Ok, thanks :thumb:

There's a version of Dark Star on Live/Dead that says (Studio) next to it.

I didn't see the whole 60s Experience. But Procul Harum's performance of Whiter Shade of Pale was ****ing awesome. That in itself made the whole thing worth seeing. Such a phenomenal, beautiful song.

Steppenwolfe was pretty badass too.

Speaking of Procol Harum, my Dad got a Dvd of them playing at the Beat Club or something. B.J. Wilson owns on Power Failure, he's a really overlooked drummer.

Anyone listen to 60's/70's pop? Some of that stuff was trippy..I think the harmonies were really trippy.

Would that be stuff like The Mamas and The Papas? Well, I don't think I do.

First thing that comes to mind when I think of harmonies are The Beach Boys. None could match their vocal harmonies, IMO.

hey, in regards to the buckethead conversation, i think he will influence plenty of people if they get past his bucket. i kind of see him as a jeff beck, more creative, technical, and versatile than others who get much more credit.

Do you work at some sort of music store? That'd be awesome to get free CD's.

At my work I get free guitars, amps, picks, and strings. Although the music store that sponsors us sucks...they don't have any of the guitars or amps I want, and aren't willing to order them. (They mostly just deal with Peavey, which I'm not a big fan of)

it was quite good. very very interesting and wolfe, as usual, provides great insight into whatever he writes about.

and im really digging the north mississippi allstars, henceforth called nma as i dont want to type all that out. they rock hard. theyre considered a jam band right? very energetic. i like.

and great job on the fg.

I doubt many of you would have heard of the band Wolmother. These guys are a 3 peice aussie band that are gettin pretty big. U can listen to their music at their site, [url]www.wolfmother.com[/url]

Yea, they are a Jam Band. And they're also usually really good, but they change up their style occasionally; Sometimes for the worst.


[QUOTE]and great job on the fg.[/QUOTE]

Thanks :)

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]You just gotta keep your eyes open. I never know when the concerts are on, but if I'm flipping through the channels it usually catches my eye. Everytime you turn on your TV, pay a visit to PBS once or twice.[/QUOTE]


Yeah, This weekend I saw The Mammas and the Papas, Concert for George, Crossroads and some Grateful Dead thing. I just hate all the people that come on and beg for money for like a half hour right in the middle

I, personally, didn't really like "A Concert For George",
I mean, it was ok, don't get me wrong, I just thought the whole affair was a little overblown.

i liked it

The concert was decent, the whole publicity over here was silly though, everywhere you turned there's a purple picture of Harrison "Concert For George"...

I don't know how many people have already mentioned this in the thread...

But who saw the Crossroads blues festival? John Mayer blew my mind. I had no idea he could play so well. That guy's channeling somebody, man...

I really wish they televised Jeff Beck's set, though. I could have done without the Clapton overkill.

I saw the Mamas and the Papas. I switched to the R&R Hall of Fame inductions (I enjoyed Buddy Guy's performance with B.B. and Clapton and Bo Diddley's song later. I liked Jerry Lee too. He sure is looking old) when the annoying salespeople came on though, so I might have missed some of it. I didn't even know about the Concert For George show. Or the Crossroads festival.

I love the Concert For Geroge, it was awesome. That's the first time Clapton has ever played While My Guitar Gentlty Weeps without George, that must have been something hard, and the guitar solo he played on Isn't It A Pitty was just awesome.

i love it. i own it. john mayer has a terrible guitar face. haha. i also wish theyd taped becks set but i would have substituted one of zz tops songs. they both sounded the same to me. too bad also that becks set was only one song. but it would have been amazing. i really hope he gets very high in the guitarist poll.

Well Im glad to see such a big root for Beck in the polls. I hope he at least goes in the top 10. :)

in the video (while playing while my guitar gently weeps) he looked on the verge of tears.

Yeah he did, I've seen that on Vh1 Classic before :P Good channel..

Anybody like Hot Tuna?

[QUOTE=Schyma]Well Im glad to see such a big root for Beck in the polls. I hope he at least goes in the top 10. :)[/QUOTE]

Is he in one of the polls yet? Or do you just mean you've seen people verbally rooting for him?

ii havent seen him in any yet. i think he meant verbally. in type. whatever. haha.
