  1. Yeah these Archive files have been fun to listen to -- first the Cover versions and now this one - both uploaded by the same person. What a great, amazing resource.
  2. I was watching it last night with my wife and she said the same thing - I know, not the same at 10 year old, but she said 'how does he he still do that,' I pulled at single floor ticket for the Chicago show, but just can't pull the trigger due to costs. Never seen the Who. Plus, my wife told me if I was going to go see them, she would have to go, too -- which would make even more expensive.
  3. I happen to have the TV on last night and caught the performance --- definitely sounded great.
  4. Watched Bowie's Serious Moonlight Tour DVD last night -- man, that was fun to watch. Earl Slick definitely over played a bit -- but I can't see Vaughan fitting in at all with the band. Loved the two back up singers, too. I thought the overall production was great --- anybody who thought Bowie sold out around this time is a weirdoe (To quote Lammy).
  5. I live about 20 minutes away from 3 Floyds - never been to a Dark Lord day. I tried to go there twice -- both times there was a line to get in and both times I didn't want to deal with it and left. Heard that their food is great, though.
  6. Well they all did sign a "contract" prior to the election that they would support whomever was elected- so there is that. I don't have a problem with all the candidates still sticking with it - they all are still in the race. I don't think any of them will be standing behind him, like Christie, anytime soon, though. Maybe Cruz. But I don't think Rubio or Kasich ever will.
  7. I only heard bits of it, but Romney's speech sounded good --- tonight's debate should be a good one (and a mess).
  8. I thought David Browne dealt with the information about the late 60's/early 70's communes nicely - what it was like living in the area during that period, especially Mickey Hart's ranch/commune. I don't think I would have wanted to hang out at Hart's ranch during the early to mid 70's. He seemed to interview a lot more women for the book, too. All of the above was kinda new to me or at least presented in a new way.
  9. Maybe they are calling it 'minor' because Dignity was never released on a proper record, like Oh Mercy --- only on the Bootleg Series/Greatest Hits Vol. 3, etc/ MTV Release. My first introduction to the song was the MTV Unplugged release - I never did get his Greatest Hits Vol. 3 release. I do agree it's a poor choice of words. ('Minor') - not to mention -- if it was a 'minor' song, why would Dylan and Columbia have it put on Greatest Hits, Vol.3? Just checked - I guess Dylan had no involvement with Greatest Hits, Vol. 3 -- so maybe Dylan, himself, considers it as a minor song.
  10. I think the Live Moby Grape disc is the only Sundazed I own.
  11. I did a search of Sundazed and my system also has the below (among others): Looking forward to these, too. Fire on the Bayou - Meters Rejuvenation - Meters A Hard Road - John Mayall Live at the Royal Hall 1971 - Byrds
  12. Just saw that my library system has the Sundazed CD re-issues of Moby Grape (1st release) and Moby Grape '69. I have them being brought in. Haven't listened to the Historic Live Moby Grape Performances 1966-1969 that I purchased when it was released in long while - need to listen to this weekend.
  13. Listening to Bark this morning via Spotify -- "Wild Turkey" is a great tune. Papa John sound great on the tune, for sure.
  14. Does anybody know why there isn't a soundboard of the June 18, 1983 SPAC show - the one that Lammy mentioned above with the Dew. There is few great audience recordings, which is fine with me - but just curious about the missing sbd. Is the show at least in the vault? Though I can't imagine that there are too many sbd's in the vault that having been leaked.
  15. I always enjoyed the studio versions of Brent's Built to Last tunes better the live renditions. Always enjoy Tons of Steel, too-- again I prefer the studio version, though.
  16. Sanders won percentage wise 59% to 40% but lost in the delegate department: Clinton:34 Sanders: 33. I think this happen a bit in the 2008 election, too - with Obama and Clinton, except Clinton is on the receiving end of the delegates, now, while in 08 she was not.
  17. First Duke of the KKK and now a Farrakhan "endorsement"-- great twofer for Mr. Trump. Too crazy. Farrakhan lives a few blocks over from where I lived in the city -- at least I can say he was a good neighbor and his sidewalks were always shoveled in the winter.
  18. I immediately thought that, too (the VP thing) - but I think two men from New Jersey/York won't fly as a ticket. But who knows with the current state of Republican party. Another fun press conference with Trump/Christie -- I guess Rubio still sweats a lot and wears too much make-up....
  19. Interesting venue choice -- nice bill, too (with Robbie Fulks) -- bet it would have been a great gig.
  20. I am not a huge fan of Graham - but the below is pretty funny. http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/sen-lindsey-graham-jokes-about-gone-bat-crazy-gop-n526306

  22. They were talking about Romney and Trump's taxes too --- the dude said "it takes a long time to gather all the information" (the standard reply when it comes to this stuff, which always cracks me.) Trump's adviser didn't persuade me in the slightest - but it was a nice, refreshing political interview for once, but POTUS is great place to hear such interviews. Big fan of Tim Farley.
  23. Was listening to XM's POTUS today on the way to work and a Trump adviser was being interview -- mostly talking about trade and such --- gotta admit, the guy was talking with a lot of sense.
  24. Do they put a tax on it or is it because it's a liquid in a glass, so the charge more. I never dealt with shipping beer before. I am heading out to a India Pale Lager tapping at my local pub - never had a IPL before. Luckily it is a walk across a park for me because we are in a middle of a blizzard.
  25. I am talking about the interview being great -- not the picture or the time period when it was taken.
