tinnitus photography

i didn't take that many, as the light (fluorescent store lighting) was pretty bad, but i'll work on some tonight. i am kicking myself that i didn't get a shot w/ Kurt and the life-sized cardboard Bieber cut-out.

damn, didn't realize tickets already went on sale for Neil.

think about the amazing debut LPs that Cale produced (P Smith, Stooges, Modern Lovers).

Damn, Todd...that's mighty high praise. but, i will let you know that i'm just a bottom feeder (see quote most of the way down... )

she's not from that block.

Glenn Jones uses a partial capo on some songs, sometimes leaving the top two strings unaffected. i saw Kurt Vile play acoustic last week and he definitely used open tuning, and to a very good degree.

Motorhead + Clutch last week This would be my second time seeing the band, and I thought the 1st time was a bit better, but still one can't argue the greatness of Motörhead, can they? Though, i could go for a bit different set list...seemed like a lot of the same stuff they played last tour. and Clutch was definitely a half-trick pony...i swear every guitar solo was the exact same thing. here's a teaser, and more shots of the band can be seen here: http://www.prefixmag.com/photos/motorhead-clutch-house-of-blues-boston-pics/

pretty much the same as before reading this thread.

so the password was 'sucker'?

what was defective about them? first i've heard of it.

Tom Cora (cellist, played w/ Dutch punk band The Ex)

add Vince Welnick to the list too (saw him w/ the Tubes and the Dead)

yeah, i forgot about Mark Sandman (saw him in Candybar, a pre-Morphine band), Strummer and Chilton. Also forgot that Billy Powell and Leon Wilkeson both played in the Rossington-Collins band. oh, and Frank Zappa.

well, i guess this could be a bit of a morbid spin on the other thread...anyways, here's who I remember off the top of my head (and the band I saw 'em play with): John Fahey Jack Rose John Entwhistle Huey Thomasson (Outlaws) Albert Collins (Rossington-Collins band) Chris Acland (Lush) Jim Shepard (V-3) Gary Shider (P-Funk) Ben Keith (Neil Young) Lady Jaye (Psychic TV3) Peter Christopherson (Threshold Houseboys Choir; Throbbing Gristle) Grant McClellan (Go-Betweens) RJ Dio (Heaven and Hell) Karl Mueller (Soul Asylum) Malachi Favors (AEOC) Vic Chesnutt Pete de Freitas (Echo/Bunnymen) Mary Hans

i just thought of another one....The Soft Boys!

much to my disappointment. if i could have hand-picked five Matador bands to have played, it would have looked like: GBV TFUL282 Come Bailter Space Barbara Manning not to say I didn't have a great time, but it could have been greater.

oh man, TFUL282 is one of my all-time favorites.,,saw them 5 or 6 times and am considering somehow getting over to the ATP in England where they are reforming for a show.

i wonder what Rey Washam is up to. i've seen Shellac a few times now, but missed out prior.

I saw one of the last Om shows w/ Chris on drums. also happy to have caught a very rare live show of Crystalized Movements back in the early 90s.

that's the 1st camera i got. if it's got fairly low shutter actuations, i would think it's worth $150-200 or so. it's a good starter camera but i wouldn't pay more since it's 3-4 generations old now.

give it some time to work past the intro

If you don't think you'll need video capability, and don't mind taking on a slight risk of buying used (and i've bought used lenses and a used body), then you could look at something like this: http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=1008090&highlight=40D

my first camera was a rebel XT, about 2-3 generations removed. that took good photos, but i wanted a bit more flexibility so i upgraded. bodies can come and go, spend decent $ on good lenses and they will last. check out dpreview.com or fredmiranda.com for reviews, or google POTN (it's a Canon user site) and dig around in there.

now i know you are just randomly grabbing Youtube links...this song sucked back in the day and it still sucks.

how is Soundtrack of our Lives not massively popular? the sound on this is a bit dodgy, but bear with it. beautiful song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QaXmaxzs3Ls
