  1. brilliant Wendell....I too love Abandoned Luncheonette on my top 25 albums of all time. Certainly captures a beautiful moment in time.

     

    As to the question, at hand, my answers are by decade.

     

    70's:Van Halen on a bill with Cheap Trick and Bob Seger.....I turned to my fella and said WTF was that :stunned

    Same thin as above for ACDC

     

    80's: GNR club in LA dragged there by a friend...the rest, as they say was history.

     

    90's: Los Lobos, have been seeing them every since when every I can.

     

    00's: The Hold Steady. Didn't get them on record or by reputation...was blown away. MMJ(thannk you Wendy and Ms.Yvonne!)

     

    I'm sure there are ton's of others but those are the what just happened moments this a.m.

  2. This is such a complex issue. I know this, if we think the guys with the money were greedy wait til we realize what the EPA and the FDA and their corporate sponsors have been up to. Pesticides and corporate farming are huge money making businesses. Just take a look at Monsanto's record around GMO 's and seeds.Here is a link to one film about this:

    It is a fact that the food we eat is no longer filled with the nutrients we need. GMO seeds and the injection of pesticides into seeds to make them resistant to disease and pests is so mind blowing that I can't wrap my mind around it. Everyday I talk to folks about how to grow their own food. It is the biggest trend/movement I have every seen.

    As to poop, Milorganite (http://www.acohardware.com/836.html) is sewage from Milwaukee! See you can sell people poop...and apparently it keeps away rabbits. Which makes sense because ultimately you must use natural deterrents with all critters if you want success in your garden.

     

    Pecan Pie and Night of Joy are right...the revolution will happen in the garden :pirate . Thank the Goddess.

  3. Wow you guys are music lovers :thumbup

     

     

    I'm with Lammy and Jim on the GD thing 150 plus

     

    When I lived in LA it was:

    Rollins Band,Meat Puppets, Firehose, and Violent Femmes (SST ruled) and Guns N F'n Roses

     

    Others with more than a dozen:

     

    Todd Rundgren, Elvis Costello,Dylan, Petty, Drive BY Truckers, Lucinda Williams, Richard Thompson, Los Lobos,Neil Young, Jackie Green and of course Wilco/Tweedy.

     

    As I like to say Jerry has my house and Tweedy has my car. I feel I've had my priorities straight my whole life :pirate

  4. Lucinda is wonderful. She is authentic, true to herself, and brings it most nights I have seen her. Once, at the Fillmore, she was super late and cranky. Quite frankly, even on that rough night, she brought tears to my eyes several times. I think she will go down as one of the best songwriters of our time. Love her. Glad she is still out there making it happen. As to the songbook...too many songs to remember all the lyrics, I think.

  5. A couple of real holy shit moments tonight...

     

    "He's the man who killed me".

     

    Is Widmore a good guy?

     

     

    Whoa what a crazy episode. I think Ben has been killing off people for a long time that threaten the island in some way. He killed off the whole Dharma initiative and they are the ones that "understand" how the island moves, ect....

     

    A-Man, I'm gonna be late for work again because of that link :thumbup

  6. Aww, shucks.

     

    I went to the opening day of spring training at Tigertown, Braves at Tigers. My seats were ridiculously good, on the field next to the Braves dugout. I made eye contact with Jeff Francoeur, and he gave me a creepy smile. I'm still kind of weirded out.

     

    Sounds like the perfect Birthday! :birthday Does this mean you will no longer be a Francoeur Frank? :brow

  7. I'm so happy that DBC got to come to the rock show. What an amazing opportunity for the fans and the band without Patterson. You folks probably have read the 9 Bullets thread on these shows. My favorite quota from over there :

     

    "I also loved the way Shonna kept pouring booze on the carpet for Patterson, like you do for the santos."

     

    Quite frankly I think that its great that they are taking the time off, as I doubt Cooley's voice, or his liver :D would have held for another 4 nights. What a guy. :worship

  8. The Columbia River Gorge is pretty awesome.

     

    I once had my mind blown on a hike in this park:

    The trails just go on and on in this area. So many negative ions that you are high as can be and I swear look physically altered, if my pictures are any proof :lol

     

     

    as usual take some of the less traveled paths:

  9. Thank you for the link, I think :lol The whole bit around jobs and students today is fascinating and really puts our economic recovery program in perspective. I'd say more money to teachers less to financial guys on the next go round :pirate

  10. Elvis is King!

     

    (I am contractually required to post that in any Costello thread)

     

    Oh yeah!

     

    I haven't watched this one yet but was astounded by the one with Renee Fleming. Who was joined by Rufus Wainwright and Kate McGarrigle. Getting to cue up an episode On Demand is one of the highlights of my week.

     

    And Matt, Momofuku is great....thanks for pushing me on that one. :P

  11. Don't know the deal with Kimock other than he has always played with amazing folks....guess he didn't like his experience with P&F per the "Maggie's Farm" comment, huh? Hope Jackie gets to come out and play with the boys on a few shows I would love to see that but ain't holding my breath.

  12. Absolutely, Jackie has grown in leaps and bounds, thanks to Phil. Jackie gave such a heartfelt thanks to Phil and the Deadheads at NYE. I am always astounded by Phil's tutoring of folks. I've always thought he saved Ryan Adams life (along with divine intervention). Just an amazing guy that Phil Lesh. :love
