Astorians with tickets

chime

Oh stoney was channel hopping last night and cribs was Jerry's ranch in Oklahoma that he has built with his Dad. He has adopted Layne's cat Sadie.

I've been travelling back ten years the last couple of weeks and listening to a lot of Blind Melon, Lemonheads and Jeff Buckley mainly as well as some more recent stuff.

EDIT: stoney I've also been listening to The American Recordings I-V is that what you are talking about?

Yeah I gave him copies of both his albums, I think it was both, when I went to stay with him for the Who show

Chime - Yeah someone on a Jerry board is supposed to be sending me that episode.

You liking Jerry Cantrell then Dave?

I've been listening to lots of anything lately. Quite a bit of Springsteen recently, and Johnny Cash.
Alice in Chains is also getting a work out

Degradation Trip especially.....

YAY!! I'm more into Boggy Depot at the moment but either album is good!

Right I've got some work to do. Will be back later xxxxxxxxxxxx

well amazingly similar tastes Dave

i've been on The Who, Radiohead, Strokes, Chilis, Razorlight, Wolfmother, White Stripes, Raconteurs... definitely Dave, dont you think its one of the best things Jacks done... i fuckin love the actual title track... its got a great Tomorrow Never Knows kinda vibe...

its been my favourite album of this year by far... after PJ of course

but it is genuinely great from start to finish!!!!

Dave... any thoughts on My Morning Jacket? and what are Drive By Truckers like? i've heard about them, but not actually them...

p.s. when are we all gonna have another Astoria night... ????

edit: On the Jack thing, it's up there but I was just so blown away the first time I heard White Stripes I don't think I could say it's the best... It was one of those where I had the entire back catalogue within a week experiences... Hands sounds like mid sixties Beatles, something off Revolver or Rubber Soul trying to work out which track, She Said, She Said perhaps? just something in the vocal harmonies...

MMJ? I've got the last album which is really rather good too not heard any others but definately recommend Z, Drive By Truckers are southern rock, again only got one album:Southern Rock Opera (about the mighty Skynyrd) which is pretty good.

Razorlight is on order, as it Thom Yorke, getting new Who EP / single whatsit on Monday, new Muse is great

Astoria night? dunno... could do tomorrow or Sunday but will be a couple of weeks then... how's everyone fixed? should get one in before Dublin... :cool:

you're right... White Stripes was an epiphany sort of musical moment for me... i saw them on some weird late channel 4 sorta music show... just made me stop eating.. which is a good sign.... i couldnt get how this one bloke and an intermediate drummer at best, could make something so fucking primal... whenever i watch the Blackpool DVD i get goosebumps at certain moments.. and the Jolene cover is just 'A'

Hands.... hmmmm..... reminds me of Rain by the beatles, which is Revolver era isnt it? but the harmonies are excellent throughout the album.

so go and buy it kids... me and dave recommend it!!!!

I was living in Indiana when Shannon died :(

I think it was Elephant that hooked me, didn't know about them until then...

Rain is Revolver era yeah, was a b-side wasn't it? It's not that I'm thinking of though... It's bugging me, will have to investigate tonight...

Sigur Ros is one of those I've heard of and seen the name around a lot but not listened to... I can't cope with my music at the moment :( far too much to listen to... nice problem to have though

I don't know if I remember it correctly but think Axl was friends with Shannon's sister and had Shannon sing backing on some stuff

Helen if you get a chance to listen to them I would definately recommend it. Shannon has a great voice and wrote some amazing lyrics.

No Rain is the most famous song so the one you are most likely to have heard (not their best though )

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watchin' the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
and speak my point of view
But it's not sane, It's not sane

I just want some one to say to me
I'll always be there when you wake
Ya know I'd like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I'll have it made

And I don't understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there's no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
And it rips my life away, but it's a great escape
escape......escape......escape......

All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
ya don't like my point of view
ya think I'm insane
Its not sane......it's not sane
