  1. FourStrongWinds- I noticed you have Trance Manual by John Vanderslice on your muxtape. That is such an awesome song. Have you ever seen him live? I highly recommend it if you haven't.

     

    I have seen him live actually, he was incredible. I actually spoke to him very briefly too at a Death Cab show and he seemed like a really genuine cool guy

  2. thanks Gin, I hadn't thought of modules. I never fully understood how they worked, I do have a small midi keyboard we could use. thing is we don't even really need a full 88 key. and its worth considering whatever we decide on must be able to fit into a Fiat Cinquecento hehe

  3. My band are looking to add some keys to our sound, like Pink Floyd, Hammond kind of sound. I've looked on ebay a bit at older vox organs and stuff but I'm starting to think it may be a better idea to just get a digital stage piano or something, can any keys players recommend a good one for ideally not too much money (can't afford a nord)

  4. the new band is a serious line up, I'm a big Pat fan, He's just got such a great touch with the organ. I didn't realise he was on Heartbreaker too

    Mikael also, is a great player

  5. I just bought a EHX Delay pedal, with no intention of using as a 'noise' pedal as such but have discovered some it has some disgusting habits

    pretty cheap too, other than that I just turn the holy grail up full, same with the overdrive and just run stuff up and down the neck

  6. I wanted to start this thread after finding an EP of a local band I used to see alot, They're still around under a different name, I haven't seen them play for a while but I must have seen this band around 20 odd times when I was younger

     

    Misterhall - Let's Go Ultimate!

     

    This is just a glorious, epic piece of jazz/pop/rock this band were nuts, just adored them...I have no idea why they're not the biggest band on earth, so how about a thread for all the blinding unsigned bands you guys have seen who you think deserve a little appreciation

     

    This EP is out of print I believe so I hope I don't upset anyone, otherwise I'll take it down

  7. I would argue this record was maybe even Tweedys strongest lyrically

     

    I remember my mother’s

    Sister’s husband’s brother

    Working in the goldmine full-time

    Filling in for sunshine

    Filing into tight lines

    Of ordinary beehives

    The door screams I hate you

    Hate you hanging around my blue jeans

    Why is there no breeze

    No currency of leaves

    No current through the water wire

    No feelings I can see

    I trust no emotion

    I believe in locomotion

    But I've turned to rust as we've discussed

    Though I must have let you down

    too many times

    In the dirt and the dust

     

    I have no idea how this happens

    All of my maps have been overthrown

    Happenstance has changed my plans

    So many times my heart has been outgrown

    Now everybody’s feeling all alone

    Can’t tell you who I am

    When everybody’s feeling all alone

    Can’t tell you who I am

     

    I am looking forward

    Toward the shadows tracing bones

    Our faces stitched and sewing

    Our houses hemmed into homes

    Trying to be thankful

    Our stories fit into phones

    And our voices lift so easily

    A gift given accidentally

    When we’re not sure

    We’re not alone

  8. did anyone else think that jeff was singing "when i'm wanking off, i'm shake it off" when they first heard the song?

     

    I still can't get over that line in Kicking Television either, I just find it really hard to imagine Tweedy having a wank, It ruins everything for me

  9. I still don't understand how people don't like this album, Leave Me Like You Found Me is my favourite now I think. just a perfect song

    and On and On and On is remarkable, Really love this album

  10. for me its Desire or Blood On The Tracks, then Blonde On Blonde. I like Modern Times alot too

     

    As for Dylans early electric playing, I love those early shows with Robbie etc when he just takes a swipe at his tele maybe once or twice a verse. I'm pretty sure he is plugged in though
