  1. Umm no...but it was quite the party. His bus is what you imagine..shaggy purple carpeting, mirror balls, hazy! I got to dig it out but I got a picture with George Clinton and he is holding a giant jug of Prune Juice in the picture..I guess it is so he can keep going on the road...Anyway the strangest memory I have that night is someone in his posse was driving a beat up old mercedes to follow the bus and George was sitting in the pasenger seat just staring bug-eyed at a map of Ohio for minutes on end...I think he was partaking in some of the earlier activities and was fried!!!!
  2. Ugggh..tell me someone here has an extra for the Brooklyn show! I was slow to buy one because it falls on fathers day. Now that my fathers day plans are set I can freely go to the concert and now it is sold out! If anyone has one drop me a pm!
  3. Good idea for a thread! 1. Guster 2001 smallish club- They break into a version of Ice Ice Baby and ask for a guest from the audience to sing. Could have been the alcohol but I got up there and belted it out..Got photos and a bootleg as proof! 2. Guster 2002- Worked security for the show...got to later play Ryan Miller in a rousing 3 game match of racquetball of which I lost badly! Made a bet prior to said match and told him if I won the band would have to play the song Getting Even that night which they did anyways! 3. George Clinton 2002- Also worked secuirty. Hnug with Mr. Clinton, on
  4. Anyone see him solo before? Does he do any Jayhawks stuff? He is swinging through NYC next Tuesday and I am on the fence about going... I know he has a new album out...
  5. It will be a great show and you will have a good time..ZZTOP is a hoot too!
  6. You know I give Petty a lot of credit he certianly earned the right to do whatever he wants... I believe though that it will come at the expense of his popularity. If he wants to play larger vewnues though I think he will struggle if he starts cranking out mostly new songs..He should play mid sized venues in my mind if he wants to do that. The only propblem I see with Petty's quote is if he doesn't want to look back then cut out songs like Free Falling , Mary Jane's and American Girl too??
  7. Wow...for a career as varied as Petty's that setlist is awful!!! I was on the fence for going to the show but I think I will stay away. I was going to bring my wife who is a casual fan but this show wouldn't be good for a casual or even a longtime fan. I have seen Petty about 6 times and I know he puts on a good show but still.... I haven't even given the new album a listen but can't justify the $60 ticket with a setlist like that.
  8. I feel bad for the young kids who just want to see a show. I understand it as a protest but it is slightly misguided. If the Pixies wanted to prove a point the should play Israel and state where there support lies during the show or play a rally before the show which supports their views etc...
  9. The concert is for the citizens of Israel not the government. Punishing the wrong people if you ask me...there are pleanty of attrocities from almost all countries that bands play...
  10. Thanks for the offer! I just got back from Peru this week, hiking Machu Picchu...I am taking the wife out for the 2nd Anniversary tonight! Must do it another time! Next time I owe you a beer! We seem to go to the same concerts quite oftent!
  11. I heard Jay Do "Still be Around" back a few years ago at Joes Pub...Looks like a good setlist though..Was going to go tonight in Hoboken but am still recovering from a trip earlier in the week
  12. Ah that sucks! If it helps I have washed my cell phone and wallet! Phone worked again after a week of drying out! Don't lose hope yet!
  13. BARRY WHITE hands down! Close the thread, end of discussion..
  14. If making love to yourself: Lonely 1 Significant other: I'm Always in Love??
  15. I started collecting Autographs when I was 8. I got a book how to get signatures and it gave a list off all the places (Agents address, studios of where to write to to get autographs). I think I sent out 200 letters just as a hobby. I got some great things back which I used to display all over my room. When I was slightly older I had goals to meet some of my favorite bands etc and just figured an signature was something I could look at to look back on the meeting. I also like the stories the autograph tells. As I mentioned before I have an Eisenhower signed letter. In the letter which he wrote
  16. In the two times I saw him about 2 years apart he mixed it up pretty well. Still played the staple hits but a few different ones outside the hits.
  17. Yeah true..after all he has been touring and playing music for over 50 years!
  18. Collect anything, used to collect anything? Discuss! 1) I collect autographs..at least I used to..over the years I amased a large collection of signatures and even used to attend book signings etc. Some of the best ones I got in person: Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Jerry Seinfeld, Bill Cosby, Tom Petty, Billy Joel, Jon Stewart, Dave Chappelle, James Earl Jones etc. I also inherited a signed letter from Dwight Eisenhower and got a Michael Jackson signature from my dad's cousin who worked on the Thriller tour in 83? 2) I buy postacards from every spot I visit that has them. I must have 2000 o
  19. Because people who are accustomed to a singers look or style and when a change happens it doesn't always go over so well with the diehard fans (Maybe not the best example but think how people reacted when Britney Spears shaved her hair ).. Maybe risk was the wrong word but I am not sure how else to describe it. Still anyway I am a Willie fan and have seen him 2 times and concert and his concerts are a real treat and everyone should catch him when his bus rolls thorugh!
  20. They should put them in the refurbished Grand Ole Opry when it opens back up again!
  21. Poor Places for me! I love that outro..one of my favorite Wilco Moments especially live!
  22. Yeah that us strange no one mentioned it..great call! I like Straightfaced too!
  23. Wow..he does look different..That is a big risk but I sulute him for the change! Good for Willie!
  24. Good call.. I really enjoy Infra Riot and Believe I Found as Openers too!
