  1. i know the incident you speak of -- it was at the Omni in Atlanta, GA in '90. [from the Digital Rush Experience review of 'Target Mass Appeal PE'] "...was quite a night for on-stage buffoonery. During Mr. Big's set, Paul Gilbert (lead guitar) did an extremely cheesy bit with a portable electric drill and his axe. At one point, he threw up the hand that was holding the drill dramatically... and the drill promptly got wrapped up in his hair. He stood up on the stage trying wildly to extract himself, then had to run off-stage and get a roadie to chop the drill out of his hair. Strange show."
  2. actually, i believe it's The Stonecutters.. ("who made Steve Guttenberg -- a star?!")
  3. he was a supremely talented bassist, sorry i didn't run it by you first.
  4. not a bad backup band, Jaco on bass, Pat Matheny on guitar...
  5. Requiem for Jaco's Birthday Jaco transcended the electric bass guitar. he was a fan of rock'n roll as much as we was a student of jazz; pointed to Jimi Hendrix as one of his early influences in the same breath as players like Mingus, "the cats, ya know?" as he affectionately referred to them. Jaco wasn't all about soloing and bass virtuosity -- give Joni Mitchell's "Coyote" a whirl; the taste, the eloquence... even during his later years when he sadly became increasingly unhinged, he was as much a composer, an arranger, as he was a player. his smile infectious, he'll always remain the p
  6. Cerebral rape and pillage in a village of his choice. Invisible man who can sing in a visible voice. Feeling like a hundred bucks, exchanging good lucks face to face. Checkin' his stash by the trash at St. Mark's place.
  7. i didn't want to be the dick who said it first, but yeah, i'm just not as in love with the sluggish tempos and god awful donna jean godcheaux as some others tend to be... summer 1985 is where it's at.
  8. even if they give backhanded praise to 2112, this list is still suspect... Spice Girls but not anything from The Specials? i think i can die comfortably without listening to the spice girls.

  10. Carl's Jr. - Santa Fe Chicken Sandwich In n' Out - Double Double with Animal style fries Mr. Box - Sirloin burger w/ cheddar/grilled onions and when you hit hard times, do up that Poor Man's Big Mac at McDonald's (the dollar double cheeseburger but sub out the mustard with big mac sauce)
  11. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-ZxlxTvjI8 not much good music in Japan but i'm digging these guys this trip...
  12. i'm with you.. other than the NHL Centre Ice pkg., i barely watch the TV... couldn't really justify paying over 100 bucks a month on a bunch of channels i don't watch.. (i mean, how many times can HBO air Robocop2, Driving Miss Daisy and Mission Impossible III in the same month?) bill went from 100+ dollars to about 30.00.

    Capo

    even though i'm a bassist, i've gone capo crazy on the acoustic (Norwegian Wood, standard E tuning, capo 2nd fret; Here Comes The Sun, 7th fret).
  14. you guys were robbed... wtf is "emo" anyway? sorry, i've been living in a cave for a while.
  15. try anything from the 'Larry Fine of the Three Stooges at Woodstock' rant... "don't eat the brown acid.. i'm warnin' you, hey, get down off those towers you hard-ons.. i had long hair before any of you jerkoffs... somebody get me a who-er.."
  16. reviews as always, mixed: Reviewer: foma! - - May 27, 2004 Subject: !!!ornette coleman!!! good show all around with lots of beautiful, almost maniacal jamming with ornette coleman to end out the second set. a percussive "the other one" explodes out of a loose, jazzy jam to start the festivities. it's worth your time for those few minutes alone. -- Reviewer: Bruce B - - August 4, 2004 Subject: not so hot Now, I only listened to the last disc, but the Space is empty and the Other One never gets off the ground, the boys are riding the brake for this one. Much respect to Ornette, but
