    "Ode To Joy" Reactions

    as i wrote on LP11 thread, i think its best since "ghost is born". i'm not counting "kicking television" although maybe i should. OTJ gets better on each listen. this one is a winner. hope we get some dates in the northwest soon!

    The Rolling Stones

    here's a vid of the seattle show in august. i went in with sort of low expectations & the band was shockingly great this night. all of the stars were aligned for whatever reason. could be one of the last truly great stones shows. the only thing i could quibble about on the set list was "you got me rockin'" & even that was great. sober ronnie is a good thing. & keith was awesome this night. if that truly was the last time i see them, i'm good.

    sadly have to pass on social distortion & flogging molly tonight. just not up for it healthwise. bob seger playing tonight too. sigh. consolation is the college football scene is good today & tonight. & for the seahawks game tomorrow my friend is brewing up some chili which is perfect given the lovely weather in seattle right now (sarcasm). she's a stellar cook so i will eat better than if left to my own devices for sure!

    RIP Eddie Money

    in Someone Else's Song

    Posted

    His real last name was Mahoney.

     

    A friend of mine told this story about Eddie Money from the mid 1980s. Per the story, Eddie Money had a house in Malibu and held frequent parties with individuals that clearly were there for his wealth and status. At one of these events, per the story from my friend, Eddie Money took one too many Quaaludes and could barely move or converse - but he was conscious. As the party attendees noticed his incapacitated state, per the story from my friend, many proceeded to loot his belongings. At one point, supposedly, Eddie Money fell to the ground attempting to protest. While laying on ground and protesting, the looters simply stepped over his prone body while stealing his furniture, dishes, cutlery, clothes, towels, etc.

     

    If true, what a sad story...

     

    just read a story that around that time period eddie was the first rock star to accidentally OD on fenatyl. your story is a sad one. from most accounts, eddie was a pretty good guy.

    Best Marketed Bands

    in Someone Else's Song

    Rolling Stones. Without  the genius marketing they would've been playing fine Native American entertainment complexes years ago. That being said, they were fantastic this year. At least the show I saw. Far better than the show I saw in 2012 (last time I saw them prior to this year).

    I had a death in my family and I wasn’t able to go because the wake ended up being the same night. I was hoping that it would be shown again this weekend. I need to look up when this will come to Blu-ray.

    sorry for your loss. small consolation: was filmed in 4K. hopefully they will release it this way for home use. i'm told you can see a friend of mine from italy quite clearly in the crowd. probably weeping with joy. she's a sweetie & WAY into it.

    is anyone else getting a hilary vibe from biden? think it would be a huge mistake for him to be the nominee. the donald would have him for lunch along with his big mac. also, being a long time politician from delaware he's most likely owned by the big banks & wall street. biden vs trump would be a no lose for them & the rest of the MI (military industrial) complex.

    Neil Young

    if you stumble across any recordings of Neil & POTR on the current European tour, snag them. the set lists have been amazing & Neil is playing his heart out. listened to the Antwerp show last night. maybe best non Crazy Horse version of "F'n Up" leading into a killer "Cortez the Killer". oh btw, he did "On the Beach" at this show. geez louise!

    I saw this last night and thought it was wonderful! It made me sadly regret I have never seen this band live. Did anyone else here see it?

    i wanted to go but my back is f'd up. had to get horizontal after day of work. also, haven't really slept for days. getting spinal shot today, hopefully that fixes issue. anyway, i'm going to buy the 4K UHD when it comes out. fingers crossed for a nice Cure arena tour in the fall!
