I checked out Page's photo auto-bio this past weekend - a lot of cool pic's and such - a short narrative about the different era's, nothing earth shattering in the written narrative, though. One could get through the entire book while listening to Led Zeppelin I.
-
I have Bruce's book (checked it out from library) at home - haven't even glanced in it, yet - The recent Lou Reed bio is still keeping my attention.
-
Was the lot similar to the Judas Priest lot documentary - forgot the name of it. Must have been a trip. Wish I would have seen a Maiden show during the 80's. I was still buying records back then --- hard to beat a Maiden gate-fold.
-
Saw Ted Leo tonight - great show.
-
They really killed Lotus that night - great tune.
-
I always thought Up was great ---- I think I enjoy it more than Monster and New Adventures. It could be that this was first time that I saw them in concert - while they were supporting the Up record --- they definitely played like they had something to prove (it was in St. Louis - Wilco opened).

Even the Chicago Catholic Cardinal knows that 'thoughts and prayers' are not enough.... (and Cupich is a hunter) Headline from the Chicago Tribune: http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/chicagoinc/ct-met-cupich-politics-1107-chicago-inc-20171106-story.html

Checked out Siouxsie and and the Banshees' Scream from the library - their version of Helter Skelter is a hoot. Never heard it before.
-
I am definitely not condoning what Brazile did - but I am pretty sure it is a somewhat common thing - perhaps networks shouldn't have political operatives on their panels or at the very least not give the operative's the god damn questions. Guessing any operative would have done the same thing and I am sure they do - she just got caught via a WikiLeak.

I made it to the 8th - I thought when the Astros took the lead again - that would be it...
-
I read it was due to curfew.
-
Eddie mashup with Angry Bird this week --- so it's been an Iron Maiden DVD marathon this morning. Mostly fast forwarding to the Eddie parts for my kid. 'Scream for me Long Beach'
-
Came home to find Dave's 24 in my box - wasn't expecting to get it today. Perfect Friday afternoon listening. A hot Promise Land - Keith is a rockin' Interesting Stella Blue, Jerry rushes it a bit -- guess this must be one of the earlier versions.

My friend wrote an op-ed for the New YorK Times - clearly depicting the difference between Bush and Trump's policy on immigration. Trump's stance is not based on protection/defense - but hate/fear. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/25/opinion/prosecution-terrorists-bush-iran.html?rref=collection%2Fsectioncollection%2Fopinion&action=click&contentCollection=opinion®ion=stream&module=stream_unit&version=latest&contentPlacement=2&pgtype=sectionfront

This show was released - Dave's Picks Volume 7: Horton Field House, Illinois State, Normal, 4/24/78
-
Yeah - just Geddy. Sorry about that.
-
I think Rush is on that Dan Rather interview show this week, too.
-
Too bad you didn't catch the DeKalb show -- a bit furthur from St. Louis than Normal is - but doable. When I started collecting tapes, my main suppliers all went to NIU.
-
Definitely one my firsts, too. I tend to listen to the NIU show (10/29/77) more - but 11/6 is a good one, too.
-
Did you make it to the Aragon - if so, wouldn't mind hearing about how the show sounded.
-
I think this is cooking bacon thread -- listening to Fresh Air and Anthony Bourdain is on it - his preferred method of cooking bacon is via the oven - take that Winston.
-
Tha't cool. Listened to Echo for the 1st time while driving around the city - a real solid record. Rockin'
-
I normally go to the below --- not up to date and I don' think there are any tabs --- so I not really sure why I am posting - anyways http://www.gumbopages.com/wilco.html http://www.gumbopages.com/uncle-tupelo.html

2005 was fun. The below was one of my favorite moments against Boston, when El Duque got of the 6th in Game 3 with the base loaded and no outs. I kept a poor dude delivery my food waiting at my building' front door, so I could watch him get the last out. Exciting stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0s7svX1lY0
-
Well you're from Boston - so that I understand. I still think a Yankee/Dodger series would be a great one, though.
