  • i love replies like this. first, i believe that if you were at a pearl jam concert and mike started shredding for 15-20 minutes you'd be loving every minute of it. you'll probably say "no, i'd get sick of it after a few minutes" but i won't believe you. second, you say you don't like jam bands...and that's great. just one less person taking up space at a show i'll be at in the future.
    hmmm...I don't like jam bands AND I don't like McCready's live extensions of many songs like Porch, Even Flow, etc. Believe me or not, but it's the troof :p

    ya, it's not for everybody....personally, for me, a good jam is the best part of a song, especially where it is all improvised, I'm still amazed how talented you have to be to create that music on the fly and rarely miss a beat/note

    If you're creating it on-the-fly, how can you miss a beat/note?

    you got me on that one.....but you get the idea. To create some incredible music on the fly, with all band members talking to each other through music and following each others leads.

    I'm hoping Beck turns out another record pretty quick this time around. Maybe before the summer. He is still playing shows now though so I don't see him doing much touring next year unless he has a brand new record to promote.

    Hope he gets his old bandmates back too:(

    Note: i don't plan on going to the Roo either way but Phish wouldn't deter me one bit

    I could see Phish making an appearance. Other than that who knows, they have been changing things up so much its hard to predict. Probably Kings of Leon since they weren't there last year and just released the new album, TV on the Radio, Foo fighters, or maybe the Killers.

  • moe.down is the best weekend of the year, I'm suprised they are back so soon. Only festie for me (unless phish holds one again)

    yeah, i haven't missed a moe.down yet. it's the only time during the summer that i know exactly where i'll be and for how long. i took my oldest son with me the last 2 years. he's got one more year of being under the age for needing a ticket.

    and yeah, i'm surprised they have dates scheduled already, too. i figured they wouldn't start touring again until around late spring/early summer of '09. but it does say on their home page that those 5 dates that are listed will be the only dates for the winter tour. i'm really hoping for a full on spring tour, going into a summer tour, with plenty of northeast dates.

    next saturday (11/15) i'm going to the lost horizon in syracuse to see al and the transamericans. should be fun. gotta get some kind of moe. fix until the touring really amps up again.

    last year was my 5th, i took a couple off because of weather or people backing out. Have fun at Al, i'm pissed I have to miss the HaHa show out in boston because of work.
