Southern Rock Opera

Wowee zowee that's awesome!

Okee dokee, I just posted a bunch of new songs on my site and I've got a site up for a band that I'm in with a friend from Iowa City.

Would love to get your feedback!

The Noble Octopus

contraption

OK , sorry I was referring to Kyle's remark about people becoming fans of the band with Kid A. Sorry for the confusion.

Gotcha

Who would have become big fans of Radiohead with that album? Most people I know caught onto them with The Bends and a few, myself included, really liked Pablo Honey.

Me, actually. My dad got me Pablo Honey right around when OK Computer came out because he read a review and thought I might like the band. I had no idea who they were and really liked Pablo Honey and then went from there.

Pablo Honey is definitely an album that I like a lot,.

One thing to note with any tube amps is that if you want a really warm tone they need to be just loud enough to "open up." It's kind of hard to quantitatively describe, but you'll hit a certain volume and the tone on the amp will sound more open and rich. Turning your amp up to that volume may be exactly what you're looking for (hopefully it's not too loud!) but otherwise I'd recommend just playing around with your guitar and amp tone controls and seeing what sounds good to you. I know a friend of mine had a Classic 30 and liked it a lot especially for lap steel playing.

I've got All the Young Dudes which I enjoy but I honestly haven't looked much into their other albums.

I'd expect nothing less from you

Have a great year, semen!

Thanks again dudes/dudettes. Time for some cornbread and other stuff!

The Beatles "White Album" or "Let it Be" or "Abbey Road" (whichever one I listened to first as a 3 or 4 year old.

Wilco "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot"

John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme"

Steve Reich's "Music For 18 Musicians"

I'm sure there are other great albums out there for me to find, but these all changed my musical life if not my life in general.

Happy birthday!!! i got you Snow, and 8 million below 0 temps!!!

Hey it's just like when I was born the first time!!

Thanks dudes/dudettes you're all pretty awesome. I'm currently celebrating by not wearing any pances and doing a lot of sleeping in. It's pretty exciting.

Definitely a great song. Wilco has a lot of those though.

I've always been partial to Yankee Hotel Foxtrot tunes.

Not to be argumentative, but how exactly does that work?

I don't know, if you're editing in protools you can eyeball a lot of stuff. but yeah, my bad.

Anyone want an album of theirs produced by Jon Brion?

Yeah that would be pretty cool. He has a good eye for sound.

I also wouldn't mind having John McEntire (of Tortoise/Sea and Cake fame) produce either, that'd be sweet.

Roger, wilco.

 

Tweedy said once in an interview he just flipped through a dictionary once really quickly because they needed a name for something, a show I presume.

I could be wrong but I think the flipping through the dictionary was Uncle Tupelo (two random words, essentially).

Will comply is what I've always subscribed to.

Brian Eno (producer/musician)

Definitely. Though I'd probably be more obnoxious (ie. telling him how awesome such and such recording is) than actually productive

I'd also be interested to hear how Jim O'Rourke would mix/produce anything I did, he alternately puts space and sound around recordings that really makes them stand out.

PopTodd (vocalist/musician)

PopTodd (producer/musician)

Sonic Youth's "Teen Age Riot" the hazy intro is a perfect starter to the song and album.

This is all excellent news.

Hey yeah! Happy birthday!

I've got an idea for Mr. Protester...when the garbage truck comes by his house Monday, he has to pay them to take his garbagee off. Want to go to the Libraray? Well...you have to pay to borrow those books bud? If that darn rent house catches on fire? Well, better have your master card number ready for the fire department motherfucker.

 

Property Taxes are the price you pay for civilization.

 

Period.

Yeah, exactly.

Nobody is making him own property either, if he doesn't want it I'm sure he can sell it.

It's still illegal in the U.S. on military bases.

Until they get rid of "don't ask don't tell" I imagine this will stay the case.

I do hope to be there for this one!
