What bands or artist do you like more than Wilco?
tinnitus photography replied to remphish1's topic in Just A Fan
ih8music, are you thinking of the Queens of the Stone Age clip where Josh goes off on the guy? -
Chuck Prophet - 2010/03/02 Cambridge, MA
tinnitus photography replied to IrishMickyWard's topic in After The Show
i was half-toying w/ trying to get one of the last tickets for this, but ended up not just staying home. -
i've only seen Ween once but i would definitely go again. really fun show.
-
it's good. and they are great live. i'm a bit pissed that their boston date conflicts w/ the Wilco show.

really? Sabbath not a metal band? To me that's like saying the Beatles weren't a British Invasion band (well, that's not such a great analogy...I suppose that today's connotations of a 'metal band' are far different from 1970's). Seriously though I think Sabbath is ground zero. I read a very good book over my vacation that covered the history of metal: http://www.soundofthebeast.com/news.html some good stuff in there, loads I didn't know. and I am off to see Kreator/Voivod/Nachtmystium this Friday.

i recall hearing of this band from Tim Adams when he ran Ajax distro/label in the 90s. they have played Boston a couple of times recently but i have missed 'em. maybe next time.

Why Doesn't Anyone Listen to the Kinks?
tinnitus photography replied to Big Perm's topic in Someone Else's Song
i saw him last November where he played a bunch of songs w/ Bill, then had a band for the 2nd part of the show. http://forums.viachicago.org/topic/42309-ray-davies-berklee-boston-november-17-2009/page__view__findpost__p__1383523__hl__davies__fromsearch__1 -
'guitarist' and 'tasty licks' in the same sentence gives me ebola.

Why Doesn't Anyone Listen to the Kinks?
tinnitus photography replied to Big Perm's topic in Someone Else's Song
definitely get _Arthur_ and _Something Else_, and also _Lola_ and _Muswell Hillbillies_. that era of the Kinks is unassailable! -
while doing a search i stumbled onto the fact that a lot of back issues of Spin are available for free online. here's the Wilco cover issue: http://books.google.com/books?id=xGaz0_gZPzIC&printsec=frontcover&rview=1#v=onepage&q=&f=false

not sure about chart placement, but i definitely heard 'i've seen all good people' and 'starship trooper' plenty of times on classic rock radio. 'yours is no disgrace' as well. btw, i put up a thread w/ some photos and a review of their boston show if you hadn't seen it: http://forums.viachicago.org/topic/43102-yes-in-boston-09feb10/

what Green Day song shows a Stooges influence? now if you said Buzzcocks, or even Hüsker Dü i would totally agree. i just don't see the Stooges influence, though admittedly i only know Green Day from radio play.
-
my feelings are totally un-mixed. i think it's an absolute joke. no dis on Green Day, who are good at what they do, but couldn't they find someone else, someone who was obviously influenced by the Stooges? in a perfect world, someone like Mark Arm (Mudhoney), Pete Kember (aka Sonic Boom), Deniz Tek (Radio Birdman) or the like would be the choice.

i believe that atrocity can be pinned on Cher
-
aside from Joe Cocker, pretty good opening slots. hopefully i will cover one of the Boston shows.

Yes in Boston [09Feb10]
tinnitus photography replied to tinnitus photography's topic in After The Show
well when you compare something like "south side of the sky" or "heart of the sunrise" to OOALH, i think it's pretty obvious which is worse. -
What bands or artist do you like more than Wilco?
tinnitus photography replied to remphish1's topic in Just A Fan
awesome avatar, btw. i saw Jandek a few years ago and wished that he had played a different set (or shorter). still like some of his records quite a bit though. this question is impossible for me to answer, as i likely have far too many to list (and that's not a knock on Wilco, who I think are a great band, I just have loads of bands I enjoy mightily). -
despite the absence of Jon Anderson, it was a pretty good show http://playgroundboston.com/2010/02/15/yesreview

^^^ great record. -
Lonoong SONGS that you wish would go on even longer
tinnitus photography replied to PopTodd's topic in Someone Else's Song
i despise that song. good long songs: Boris - 'Feedbacker' (pts 1 through 5 really constitute a ~45 min song) Sleep - 'Dopesmoker' (52 minutes of stoner heaven) Velvet Underground - 'Sister Ray' (probably the earliest example of extreme minimalism and primal energy in the long format) -

i've still got a ton of old Ajax mail order catalogs in my attic somewhere. when one of those arrived in the mail, my hands would tremble with anticipation. -
AM is the only vinyl reissue I don't have, but i couldn't be happier w/ the other pressings.

i only saw the Cows once, but it's a show i will never forgot. Shannon was a great frontman. yeah, the 2 Squirrel Bait records slay. see if you can find the Motorolla Cloudburst 7", which was put out by The Pope, a mag run by Tim Adams before he started Ajax. it was SB in disguise. -

O'Rourke's involvement has probably garnered a bit of minor interest. no one cares about Grubbs.
