ALL ABOUT MUSIC #2 - Non Surround, Not Covered In Other Threads

[Simon A]

My apologies, not about music.

Could the owner of the blue rusty Volvo whose handle is fredblue please pick up your twins in aisle 4 and empty your bleedin' PM box so people can send you pictures of Jaclyn Smith.

Thank you!

Bob Romano had commented in another thread about seeing TOTO and those of us that are fans surely know about Leland Sklar, who has frequented the role of bass player for them. He's a very recognizable man with his LONG gray beard and personally, he's one of my favorite bass players. Here is a great article (in interview style) with Leland (Lee) with some great stories about his past. This man has been around the block!! So cool...

Snood bought the new Neil Young Rust Never Sleeps bluray for 15.71 total delivered

Back ordered on Simple Minds New Gold Dream bluray for 18.09 total delivered

Not too shabby

They not charge card til shipped...so koooo on the back ordered Simple Minds :banana:

EDIT: They did charge my card for the Backorder for some reason.......hmmm no big but might give them a call tomorrow. They plainly state on their site they no charge til shipped

They say payment for Gold Dream was authorized, that is why me see it...not charged. Will check to see if pending payment goes final, but sounds feasible.

Thanks for posting GOS, he's a favourite of mine as well. I always loved his work with Phil, great to hear he's along for some face time with him next month! Hope something exciting comes out of it!

Uh, that interview was originally from 2014, so whatever Leland was doing with Phil has come and past, but Phil is performing as part of the Opening Night Ceremony of the 2016 US Open Tennis Championships on August 29th. (It will also be broadcast on ESPN)

Well, Metallica is releasing a new album sometime in November. I dunno how much I like this song, it certainly sounds like they are looking to their older thrashy roots....though the single probably means nothing in terms of trend of all songs. So, I'm not worried.... Metallica fan forever and we'll see how it sounds.

Sounds great, love the lyrics and all we can hope it's not the most compressed disc ever made, Death Magnetic being the # 1 most compressed disc ever.

 

[edisonbaggins]

I think the chorus lyrics are trite and the chorus lacks melody. The rest of the track is pretty cool. Nice, thrashy riffs. Production sounds decent too.

 

[GOS]

I'm more a fan of their music that has slower more complex music.....not so much the thrashy stuff. OK, well, I love their old thrashy stuff, not their newer thrashy stuff...if that makes sense. Absolutely love Kill "Em All. That is so epic...

 

[Tornado Red]

Just a reminder for all you Canucks out there...The Tragically Hip perform their last concert tonight, live from Kingston, Ontario at 7:30 central time on CBC. I have my pvr set

Sad, but special and very cool for those who can go. I love quite a few of their records.

Yup, very sad circumstances EB...wonder if they'll be charging "2.50 for a hi-ball and a buck and a half for a beer"

This is pretty cool, venues all across Canada where you can go to watch the show if you want to get out and celebrate with others on a big screen...

Well, since Clint isn't around lately to carry the "today is someone's birthday" wishes....I'd like to mention that today is Keith Moon's birthday. He was born on August 23, 1946...so he would be 70 if still alive.

An awesome drummer with dramatic flair...I always LOVED his drumming style. One of my top 5 drummers. Oh, and GET WELL CLINT!!

I love Moonie....I think he was bipolar....tends to happen with a lot of great musicians and artists....(according to Bill Bruford, Moonie wasn't a DRUMMER...he was a man "who hit things"...oh well)

Yesterday was Roland Orzabal, Tori Amos, Vernon Reid...and yours truly
