  1. Milwaukee's Scarring Party opened followed by Paul Sieger and the Southern Continentals, who also backed Daniel on a few songs. it was at Turner Ballroom which is a great new venue. he played the songs you mentioned in your blog, opened with a rocking Speeding Motorcycle with full band. other songs included: Casper, Hey Joe, Silly Love, Rock and Roll/EGA!!!, Wicked World, The Beatles, Devil Town, You Got To Hide Your Love Away, closed with True Love Will Find You In The End. i thought the crowd was respectful, obvious shouts of praise, "Daniel Johnston For President," Daniel seemed happy alth
  2. i thought the show in milwaukee the following night was quite special.
  3. YES!! i just got tickets for Madison!!! woohoo!!! never been so excited to see a fellow Sconnie perform!!!
  4. i just put together a mix for a breakup....not all songs are about breakups but they make me think of her, here are a few: Burn-Ray Lamontagne Long and Sad Goodbye / Memories of You- Ryan Adams In A Ditch - Scud Mountain Boys Falling Slowly - Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova I Just Don't Think I'll Get Over You- Colin Hay Skinny Love - Bon Iver
  5. the ryan in whiskeytown was a completely different person that Ryan in the cardinals. I dont know him personally but musicially they seem different. i like both versions for what they are but i miss the Whiskeytown days. i loved that type of americana, folk rock, female-male harmonies, violin....it was great!
  6. dion phaneuf would have something to say about hardest shot....see him bust (2) plexiglass boards in same game? ridiculous....
  7. one more question....can i play the keyboard straight into headphones and receive sound instead of a keyboard speaker? if i can hold out on a speaker for awhile that would make the expenses a little easier..thanks sorry if question is stupid
  8. Surprises for me are YES the Bruins, doing great so far (yes!) and Philadelphia is in first place. As as fan of the Central league, a surprise is that the Blues-Blackhawks-Blue Jackets are all above the .500 mark. Ovechkin with 39 goals at the half is pretty good. With that contract, thats where he should be. Pascal Leclaire -tender for Columbus has been surprising with 8 shutouts, 2.00 GAA. wow.
  9. i just tried right now 8:15 am Central midwestern time and there are still tickets available. not going as i need the money for 4 of 5 winter residency shows...
  10. i have a Fender Highway One Tele, sorry but what are pups and brass saddles? i play more acoustic and piano so my knowledge of lingo arent up to scale. im guessing one of those words pertains to pickups??
  11. those were the good old days...
  12. ok so ive researched the the Electro II and im starting to become obsessed with the idea of having one and playing around on one. Ive found youtube videos on it and they sound great. There is a difference of $400 from the 73 key version to the 61 key version. Is it worth spending the extra for the extra keys? i dont know if i need the extra keys...
  13. yeah this one hurt, this one hurt a lot. It hurt because i thought the Packers were somewhat destined to get to the Super Bowl but then again so were the Giants!!! I guess it was just Manning's time, not Favre's. yes it was a good game and im proud of my team. wow what a season it was so much fun!! as far as Super Bowl. I usually root for the NFC but 19-0 would be cool but then i would like to see Strahan win one, he is a good guy.
  14. i was rooting for the Bears last SuperBowl over the Colts. so yeah i can believe it.
  15. been a Packer fan all my life and today is a great day!!! GO PACKERS!!!! Good luck to the Giants and Giants' fans but im sorry GO PACK!!!
  16. thanks, i think it would be a lot of fun to play around and compose and come up with cool effects to go along with my guitar.... how is the hammond B3/organ sounds? nevermind i heard an mp3 sample online. wow kicks ass. gotta get me one one day
  17. great movie, great songs, Glen hansard has a new fan!
  18. what is a good speaker to plug these bad boys into? do i even need one? not sure. never had a keyboard but have always wanted one. i am a recreational musician. Is the Electro II out of my league?
  19. thanks lemsky, now im have a Nord keyboard on my mind and i can't or shouldn't afford it...but man it would be awesome to have!!
  20. thats what is so amazing about the price. you can buy the same record for much less. it is not out of print.
