    I haven't posted in here, but Yield is awesome.

    I remember lurking and reading about the books that helped inspire Yield. Ishmael was one, but what are some others? I'd like to read some of those. Thanks. :)

    Ha, very nice.

    We should have a thirteen days of YIELD leading up to the ten year anniversary. Devote each day to one of the songs, then really let loose.

    ;)


    will there be presents involved?

    SVT night?

    I'm in! But a lot of people will be at lolla already, no?

    I think I posted this already here. Once I was getting ready to watch SVT for the first time with my 7 year old son, and he was concerned about Ed possibly saying "fuck" in the video (we've had issues with this, so we give Ed timeouts when he says that in bootlegs), and I said we'd give him a timeout if he did. Then he asked "mom, why do you think he says 'fuck'?" So I said something about anger, and we talked about it a little.

    Anyway, he loved the part of it he was awake for :p.
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    I remember going to this little music store just off campus back in '98....I was still a month out from seeing them for the first time.

    PBW and I bought the VHS, went to our classes and then went back to my house to watch it (actually, I had to wait all day because I had an air-shift from 3-9 at the radio station).

    It was a nice way to get ready for the Knoxville show.

    I'm abstaining. So, basically, while everyone else is hunting, I'll be back at the camp tending to the fire.

    So it is written...so it is done. Starting July 23...with BRAIN OF J.

    This might be the best idea yet.

    It's like Chanukah...not as mainstream as YIELD-Night, but celebrated with just as much enthusiam.

    This made me laugh. I'm down. I missed Yield night because of, shitty things going on, but I'm definitely down for SVT night.

    I say we devote an entire day to a track...listen to various live performances...interpret meanings...watch some tracks on "You Tube", if available.

    That's what I'm thinking. It would a nice way to force ourselves to really get down to the nuts and bolts of each and every track, and to really examine some of the songs we've been lazy with.

    I thought the whole album was about beer and being/feeling awesome?
    Do you remember Rock & Roll Radio?

    Yeah, that sounds good.

    I was talking about YIELD night 08, not SVT night 07.
    But if we want to do it now, let's do it.

    He pulls that off, then I will come (i.e. I will be at home).
