  1. emusic is a constant source of anxiety for me. i had to cancel...several times. it was just my birthday so i got a bunch of stuff. i thought i had decided on what i really wanted, only to be disappointed. in don't want a visceral reaction anymore to music..well, maybe a little. i just want something that i WANT to listen to that not is a quick high or sludge to get through. anyway, i'm basically starting over, adding one side of an album to the itunes a every few days and trying to listen and enjoy at least something about it. JESUS when did listening become a chore.
  2. i have posted similar things here. i'm with you wild frank. i was the same way in high school and college. waited for an album to come out and just LOVED it to death. it was a special thing to save up some cash, go to the record shop and get one album. these days there's just too much choice and so much garbage to sift through. i find myself revisiting my ultimate favorites because listening to music has become a chore to some extent. i think this is also because i'm getting older. who knows. look forward to hearing what others thought are. btw-i've recently been making a list of j
  3. the first episode was good. 2 and 3 were just really corny. all of dex's interactions with his family and neighbors is just so bad. i love lundy, but deb's love life has become tiresome. the last episode was a bit better, especially since dex got a good clean kill in
  4. where do you find this stuff? AWESOME!! i am looking forward to dreaming man. i do think it will still come out. it was gonna be called harvest moon live, remember that. the artwork is okay, but is a bit different and doesn't seem to fit as well with the other performance series stuff. saw this tour. so so good. i loved hearing the new songs. and neil still looked like young neil up there. we heard speakin' out at the show i was at. really wish they were putting out an entire show or at least a second disc of other songs played on that tour.
  5. thanks. been wanting to check these boys out!
  6. i want to see this as it seems like a validation for the human psyche. ironically, it's an interpretation of what goes on in a kids brain, but it's inappropriate for kids.
  7. Tomorrow - Silverchair loved that song! Also, Sex and Candy-?
  8. well, if we're talking garth brooks:-) cold shoulder-garth brooks black hole sun-sound garden remedy-black crowes thorn in my pride-black crowes

  11. is there anybody cooler than david rawlings? i just love those two!
  12. i must confess that in addition to the grateful dead and phish, the other band i worshipped in the 90s was the indigo girls. i basically learned how to play guitar by studying every bit of early albums. in addition, the angst and romantacism of their music was validating and soothing for sensitive teenagers like myself back then. can't really listen to any of those bands now, but the indigo girls were a major band in the 90s. i never noticed how phallic that cover is.
  13. i just round up...it gets a bigger reaction from my wife:)
  14. being from dayton, i have to give props to breeders and GBV. i loved the Safari EP by the breeders. cool psychedelic video too. looking at this thread, the 90s really weren't bad at all. lot better than the 80s...nothing better than the 70s (beginning in '67 of course:) phish was the best live band in the 90s, no doubt and all the albums from that era, not including hoist, are fantastic. especially lawnboy and ghost is born.
  15. siamese dream is definitely one of my top five favorite albums of the 90s.
  16. up until now, The Machine has just been the duo. the only difference is that they play a lot of covers, david sings lead, and they wear jeans (not their old timey get-ups:) however, it looks like it's gonna be a band for this tour. hope they do some electric stuff. wrecking ball on gillian's last album is electric and perfect. they will never over-produce. i too am very excited about this album. at the same time, i cannot believe that gillian has not put out a new album in 7 years. she was in her early 30s when soul journey came out. now she's over 40. i just don't get it. they'v
  17. well, unfortunately, bands (as well as anyone who puts themselves out there) really become lightening rods for 'our' psychological projections. this is true in all of our relationships, but some of the deeper stuff (not the deepest) comes out on those not so close to us. it's fascinating. i remember seeing two wilco shows back to back in '04 i believe. one i went by myself and it was excellent. actually, i was excellent. the next show, i was with my pregnant wife and was tired from travel. i was not feeling it. it wasn't the band at all. it was all me. (as i write this, i'm coming ba
  18. that sounds like my life back in 1995 :-) phish tix are way too much money now. i feel bad for the phans. i am curious about the halloween show.
  19. the first crazy horse album is good. danny would've probably become a respectable artist leading that band, had he not been heroin addict. crazy moon is okay too. neil plays on that. the rest are pretty bad. however, billy talbot put out an album a few years ago call Alive in the Spirit World and it is excellent. very 'neilish'. i think the horse are great...love talbot's bass and poncho's guitar lines are so interesting. check out the album broken arrow and listen closely to the second guitar. great stuff.
  20. no doubt about the springfield. i wish their stuff had been produced a bit better. the timeline on that site is amazing with all the speculation through the years. also, the run down of the discs is cool as it highlights stuff that is missing from the archives I.
  21. this site is incredible, especially the timeline.
  22. since toast is part of the special release series, it seems that homegrown would too, outside of the archives maybe?
