  1. I saw Fogerty at NOLA Jazz fest in 1998. I realize this was a bit after the law suit was settled, but I swear he went into a big monologue about the law suit and not playing those CCR songs in X number of years. The band then launched into Born on the Bayou and the place exploded!!!! We were actually walking through the main stage crowd to another stage....and stopped in our tracks. Up until 2006, Fogerty was right behind Ray Charles as the top 2 sets I had seen at the fest since I started going in 1994. If your wondering, 2006, year after katrina, was when the Boss and the Seeger Sess
  2. Perm, when does it hit the streets?

    ACL Taping

    Looking forward to this Aquarium Drunkard
  4. Pigsooie....you know this Tiger fan is a little bias, but there looked to be some home cookin during the 4th quarter. Quite a few questionable calls. We've got Darth Visor coming into Death valley next Sat and if we can win that and beat Tulane in NOLA and FLA can win their next two....Sat Oct 6th is going to be one helluva game. One helluva game that i have a great ticket to!
  5. I remember a previious thread but couldn't find it (i.e. didn't want to take the time to use the search option). I was fully expecting Aman to police this. Luckily he didn't as I've got some good advice and don't feel like some small eared freak. Although I think the girl at the gym yesterday thought I was checking her out when I was simply trying to see how she was wearing her ear phones.
  6. Ha...Actually, I think my ears are too small. Maybe I'm trying to fit the earbuds to far into my ear? Appreciate the help.
  7. I just got a new shuffle for my birthday and will be using it mostly for running and at the gym. The times I've borrowed the wife's Ipod for travel, I've found the ear buds hurt my ears quite a bit. Was wondering if anyone had suggestions for a pair that had good sound and might be a good fit for the stated uses. Thanks for any help.
  8. Its pretty rough down there, everything you hear is true. There is a lot of good happening too. Go down and see for yourself. If you want to volunteer your time, that is fantastic, the city needs it. If you want to just go down and get an order of the crawfish cheese cake and Fried chicken at Jaquemos...maybe stroll around the quarter, catch some live music, the city needs that also. If you want to read a great book about the aftermath of the storm and what it was like in the city, you should check this out. One dead in the Attic
  9. Looks great. Can't wait to see jack White sitting in on Lovin Cup!
  10. Not sure if this has been mentioned: On August 26th, Britt Daniel will be performing a brief solo set at Beacon Theater to raise money for 826NYC, a children's writing center in Brooklyn. The line up includes: Feist Jim James (of My Morning Jacket) A.C. Newman (of The New Pornographers) Grizzly Bear Sarah Vowell (with Eugene Mirman and Leo Allen) Demetri Martin
  11. I'll be there Sat night and may be rolling in Hans Solo. Would enjoy meeting you fellas.
  12. Got the confirmation email too. Are you guys people to both shows, etc.? I may have an extra for the Sat show.
  13. oceanman, went back and looked at my confirmation email and it looks like we need not get too worried until a week before the show
  14. Have ya'll received your tickets for either night yet?
  15. Was the 2 CD version the one with the bonus EP, or was Stage Names actually issued as a double or deluxe edition?
  16. This has been amazing....I remember the old thread, ar atleast the Westy post.....WOW! Met Peyton and Eli manning at their grandmothers cabin at the Neshoba County fair in MS. Took 2 of 3 from Morgan Freeman at at his blues bar in Clarksdale, MS. Called two rails off a bank and drained it. Morgan was as cool and down to earth as he could be,. After that last shot he howled "Mother Fucker"! My favorite, though, was getting inducted into the MS Sports hall of fame as a senior in high school. There were 8 of us inducted as scholar athletes, and a number of other honors. The Big awards
  17. Lammy...whats the Mountain joint you saw Billys band at. I really want to start catching some local acts at some of the mountain bars.
  18. Interestingly enough, i bought the audiophile issue of Sound and Vison Mag (use to be Stereo Review) Sound and Visionyesterday. They test three tables, low, mid, and stupid.....Debut III was the low and got an A+! Right on. I was all about the Expression due to the carbon fiber tone arm...unheard of in tables at this range. I can not tell you how happy I've been with this rig (need to upgrade my cartridge though. Agreed on the equiptment issue. I've got a Rotel 1062 integrated stereoamplifier, which has a great phonostage, but the table would have been a waste without it. FYI
  19. I researched this quite a bit last year and finally decided on a PRO-JECT Expression II made by Sumiko. I could not be happier with my decision. Sumiko audio I've seen the debut III for $200. Debut III
  20. Aarvid...hear you on the move to CO. While there were quite a few shows to catch in New Orleans and Baton Rouge, I'm loving CO. Just moved to Denver in April. Don't forget Jason Isbell at Larimer Lounge 8/9. Going to my first Red Rocks show next Fri....MMJ opening for Dylan
  21. I realize this one is specific to MS but that is where I was born and raised and it probably has one of the worse stigmas. Ryman, I couldn't agree more.
