Hello!!! Didn't think you frequented these parts anymore...

hello!  i was thinking of Natalie enough that wanted to come by the old neighborhood!  btw, this site STILL has my favorite emoticons.

  this alone may bring me back.

i'll throw in as a non-teacher:  i work in post production on a tv show.  although i've done the same type of work for about 18 years it's similar to a freelance job.  if the show i'm working on doesn't get picked up for another season i'm looking for a new job.  it's a weird way to live, but it's how most of the people working in the industry operate.

tonight i heard a song from Decemberists' "Crane Wife" and immediately i thought of Natalie.  i thought, Natalie was alive when this album came out.  she didn't like it.  her comment about it was something close to, "let us never speak of progressive rock again."

my sig line here has a quote from Nat that i use often, but mostly i think it rather than say it out loud.  i'd just have to explain it.

boy, i miss her.   to Natopia!

If he can't figure out who I am, he needs a punch in the yams.

i'll be seeing mmj tonight in l.a!

well done!

can we have a pie chart break down of the content of your posts? am interested to see how big the "pertains to joe henry" slice would be.

safe & fab travels, donna & brennan!

i'm also a big fan/advocate of the road trip!

From this morning's Sydney Morning Herald.

thanks, fritz! cheers!

boy, i missed this.

HAPPY HAPPY very belated BIRTHDAY, JEN!! :dancing

Oh yeah,I have a whole new life....Ill fill in the the details latter...I needed to be loved for once in my life!

well, alright! dude, your big heart has always been in evidence 'round here. happy to hear you've got some good love going on.

congratulations on your 30 days! stay strong, señor!

wendy, thanks for posting the clip! i was at that show: eryka w-mmj KILLED. the place absolutely came apart!

at long last i can get over having missed that dallas show where she performed "tyrone" with them.

granted i'm a cheerleader for mmj, but i am digging this album. music for dancing, hollering, hammock swinging. i am in.

also: last month before a show in lexington i heard their sound check from outside. i couldn't hear very well. it was windy and the sound was coming in and out. but i heard something that made me stop what i was doing. i didn't recognize the song. it kept getting bigger and bigger. i got chills sitting there in the direct sun. turned out to be victory dance.

i give this album: :coffeecup :coffeecup

well, FINALLY!

great news!

Oman! so happy to see you here! renic and i were wondering where you might be. sounds like you've undertaken some serious personal business in the last couple years. fucking a. well done.

i've never smoked: everyone in my family, everyone, smoked. most of them still do. BUT! several years ago one of my sisters quit and has been singing a song of what life is like after cigarettes ever since.

any time you spend off cigarettes has to be good. YOU CAN DO EET!

ps. i hope to see your face materialize in a random crowd again somewhere this summer

bump

my tic is still available and in the "got extras" thread

[whispering]do it do it do it...[/whispering]

if all goes well, i'll be at their lexington show next sunday. hoping to hear a few new songs! :dancing

hello all,

i've got one 3-day pass for Solid Sound i want to sell.

i bought it at the early bird price, so it will be $100.

i'm going to be in chicago this friday & saturday so if you'll be in town for the jeff shows we make an easy exchange.

shoot me a pm if yer in the market.

dave, i have an early bird i want to sell.

pm on the way.

"bring script in case"

i know a few folks...that got to hear the new album on Friday and said it's unbelievable

*cough*car rental*cough*

i don't have plans/tix for the chicago show (yet) but am set for a good run on the west coast! i love that portland/mmj combo. with it comes great beer AND great coffee.

Perhaps, but I am still selfishly hoping for a 2nd night (Saturday ) at the Auditorium in Chicago.

wendy, i like the way you think.

but i wouldn't be averse to a trip to minneapolis...

summer tour: it is on!

It is a good song. Back then, however, I worked in an office that had Top 40 radio on all the time, and that song dominated the airwaves for what seemed like a whole year (or more) ... so I'm still a little burnt out on it.

i worked at an "adult hot contemporary" station at that time. this song was in heavy rotation.

I NEVER WANT TO HEAR AMY GRANT EVER AGAIN.

or jon secada. or ANYTHING from the soundtrack to the Lion King. *shudder*

i worked with a couple of the guys in cerebral corps back in the day! saw them perform at one of their members weddings.

it is killing me that you posted this! such a flashback. jeff saltzman is a producer these days in portland, oregon. discography

PAGING PNEYU!
