    I thought the show was fantastic. Maybe the best I've seen them & I started with the War tour. I saw them in 1987 but got too polluted & don't remember that one. I also saw a show right when Achtung came out that was excellent. Before it was a stadium thing. This one was special though. For a stadium show, the sound was amazing. Century Link is actually quite good for stadium acoustics as it was designed with that in mind. I was in the front part of the upper deck. From youtube clips, it seems like Seattle was much better than Vancouver. There were a lot of hassles getting in Vancouver & the band was delayed. + opening night jitters. They were on from the start in Seattle. New Year's & Bad gave me shivers down my spine. Side 2 of Joshua was stellar. The Eddie Vedder/Ben Harper appearance was cool. We get a lot of Eddie at shows in Seattle but this one wasn't intrusive in the least. Huge thumbs up. Go if you can for this tour.

    Steven Drodz. Heart & soul of the Flaming Lips. My favorite drummer & keyboard player & way up on the list of favorite guitar players. Great singer, too! "Feeling Yourself Disintegrate" has an epic guitar solo on the current tour that keeps getting better & better every time they play it. Totally emotional & perfect. So glad he's ok now....

    Seems like a really time for Neil not to either tour or release some music...I guess we will see him the RRHOF with Pearl Jam. 

     

    I wonder what he is going to do next...Crazy Horse, CSNY, Solo, Promise......

    that's the beauty of neil...always keeps us guessing!

    Hey Chuck, all the best.

    thanks, hanging in. is kind of a double whammy with the holiday season. its pretty vicious but i'm still upright most of the time for now. reference note which i hope you all don't have to know: never a good sign when they put on the haz mat gear to mix the "cocktail". eesh!

    Got the e-mail while I was at work, and of course you can't download music off the internet on an iPhone, so thanks for the reminder!

     

     

    Sorry to hear that, hope you're doing ok Chuck! 

    Thank you Cowboy Poet. Hope you are staying warm up there in the wilds of BC. It is colder than a witches whatever here in Seattle. I've decided that the literature about hell is wrong. It is actually freezing cold!

    NFL 2016

    2 great games in a row on 1 sunday yesterday. the nfl must be doing cartwheels at this point. as good as DAL/PITT was, the SEA/NE game last night was even better. for once, the refs didn't decide the game. just 2 great teams playing their hearts out. as far as the non call that decided the game went, it was totally appropriate. technically, both players probably committed fouls & the refs just let them play rather than try to decide who fouled first. as it should be. what a great game & i think a preview of super bowl 51. NE & SEA seem to bring out the best in each other. lets hope it is signs of things to come for the 2nd half of the season.

    i'm in shock. i have a theory that pt barnum is the true father of the country. there's a sucker born every minute. there has been a mass brain washing & now the 4th reich is here. the military/industrial complex is going to go absolutely ape shit now. they have their crazy front guy now. i'm most likely going to be dead in not too distant future but am truly scared for the younger people i care about.
