Pearl Jam at Austin City Limits...

[Fraggle145]

Best show I have ever seen...

Cant remember the whole set list, but Why Go Home, Go, Even Flow, Alive, and Rocking in the free world...

And Perry Farrell showed up. And they played with Ben Harper.

****ing unbeliveable.

[soonermix]

you have been tainted by austin
you are banished

[C&CDean]

"Pearl Jam" and "best show I've ever seen" are not two phrases/words that should ever be used in the same sentence.

[StoopTroup]

"Foggy River Bottom Boys" and "Worst show I've ever seen" are not two phrases/words that should ever be used in the same sentence.

Nice....:pop:

awesome. they are unbelievably good right now. they've gotten better with time. most people that don't like them either

a) haven't listened to them in 15 years
b) are retarded ;)

Or we could say the guys who dig them are either:

a) flaming liberal homos
b) flaming liberal homos

I like them OK, and I also agree they've gotten better with age. However, after seeing acts like Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon tour), Alice Cooper (Killer, Billion $ Babies tours), The Who, Deep Purple (w/ Ian Gillam, Ritchie Blackmore in about 1972 or so), David Bowie (during the Ziggy Stardust years), Elton John (see, I don't care if he bones boys), and a buttload more I just can't agree that PJ would be better than any of those.

Of course this is the resident atheist's thread, and the fact that he lives in a biosphere down by the lake, and that he wasn't born until music all turned to **** then he's probably right. It very well could be the best show he's ever seen.

[Lott's Bandana]

...is the reason I chose not to attend this year.

meh x 2

(long live the Beasties)

Had no idea you were a Beastie Fan....very cool.

Dude, LB was locked in a tin can under the ocean blue for 20-something years. He's still a juvenile in his musical tastes. He actually enjoys going to those festivals with 300K wasted wannabe mosher kiddos.

Yep.

They smells good up close.

[C&CDean]

Yeah, except that back in the day while you were protecting coral reefs and **** we were having the free love....with the only worry was she either got knocked up or maybe, just maybe you might need a shot at the clinic in a worst case scenario.

Nowadays, those young little smell gooders have **** that'll kill you dead. Or make your pecker fall off.

I'm not referring to the ones that reek of Axe!




:P

[PDXsooner]

in the last 5 years i've seen U2, paul mccartney, rolling stones, aerosmith, rascal flatts (ok, this qualifies me as a flaming homo -- not because i saw them but because i liked them), and i'd put pearl jam at the top.

in order to appreciate them you have to appreciate vedder. some people don't like him though.

C&C - the fact that you liked elton qualifies you as pretty much gay -- maybe not take-it-in-the-rump gay, but definitely lie-naked-with-a-man gay. shatters my opinion of you as the end-all man's man...:O

That was a long winded way to ask him for a date.

Dean you are right. I never got a chance to see Pink Floyd, The Who, etc... Although I have their albums in my car and they do get listened to. I smoked my first joint to "The Wall." Hence, this is the best show that I personally have been to.

And ya music isnt as good in the 90's as then... but its still better than the bull**** "my mom and daddy didn't love me enough" **** that is out there now.

Can I have my Nickel back?

[StoopTroup]

I saw Elton three times before I realized he was a flaming homo...the guy is a Showman. When he started to chunk up and you realized he was going on backpack trips with Bernie Taupin...I just really didn't give a **** about his personal life. The Dude wrote some great music back in the day. His Concerts were lots of fun and not packed with Barbara Streisand loving she-men.

[StoopTroup]

The list of Bands that I can remember. Bad Company, Maggie Bell, Led Zepplin, Ted Nugent, Blue Oyster Cult, Kansas, Electic Light Orchestra, Alan Parsons, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Def Leppard, April Wine, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Molly Hatchet, Kentucky Headhunters, David Alan Coe, Willie Nelson, Johnnie Winter, Edgar Winter Group, Sammy Hagar, Van Halen, Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Johnnie Lang, Ian Moore, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Rush, REO Speedwagon, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Ozzie, Poison, KISS, Paul McCartney, U2, The Police, Sting as a Solo Artist, Bonnie Raitt, Joan Jet, Pat Benatar, UB40, Red Rider, Hank Williams Jr., John Mellencamp, Kris Kristofferson, Elton John, Crosby Stills and Nash, Neil Young, Steppenwolf, Fabulous Thunderbirds, Moody Blues, Black Crows, Eddie Money....the memory is fading now.....

[Lott's Bandana]

Dean you are right. I never got a chance to see Pink Floyd, The Who, etc...

Led Zeppelin, Yes, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, KISS (that's right, great show when they first started), Lynyrd Skynyrd, Little Feat, Doobie Brothers (before MMc), Peter Frampton, Uriah Heap, Crosby Stills and Nash...

Venues: the LNC, Myriad or Fairgrounds...
one show at the Civic Center Music Hall in 1977: Judas Priest, Foreigner, REO Speedwagon

Frag, I agree about your assessment about Emo Kid...yet there are some successful "tangents" out there that aren't yet playing rural Indian Casinos or are deceased:

Of Montreal - Gogol Bordello - Michael Franti...a few I have enjoyed live recently.


Corporate Radio = Nickelback = bleeding ears


Frankly, I'm at a loss as to what to do.


I want to like bands and enjoy music, however everything is so corporate-driven that even the avant garde is somehow connected to the mainstream. I don't listen to the radio anymore for music. I've considered satellite, but isn't that another form of corporate feedbagging? I listen to streaming college radio on iTunes, but even that lacks the historical variety.

Lately I have turned to supporting the local artistry and give some of my time and money to The Performing Arts Studio of Norman.

To grow up with the music in the '60's and '70's is to be truly blessed.

This is probably why I've evolved/devolved musically to the blues. If I'm gonna go out somewhere and listen to live music, the only thing I wanna hear is rockin', stompin' blues. Not Etta James or Muddy Waters blues. I want Walter Trout and Joe Bonamassa blues. Tommy Castro and Albert Cummings blues. Guess I'm a racist, cause all them dudes are white or messican.

What kills me is hay season. I typically spend 10-15 hours a day in a tractor on my days off and at night cutting/baling hay. I have to listen to the radio during these times. OKC radio is the lamest crap ever. Boston, Steve Miller, and the Stones ad nauseum. It would be OK if they would play something besides the same 3 songs over and over and over. And don't even get me started on the ****ing commercials. "Good Sunday everybody, this is Chad Stevens (or whatever the hell that anal wart's name is) today is the silent Sunday sale..." or even worse, "Double Ds, Dick's Road House, and some other POS bar..." Wears me out. I need to get XM or Sirius for the tractors.

it's called an ipod -- best invention ever in terms of listening to music.

[yermom]

i'm pretty partial to my iPhone. it can play Pandora too...

there is plenty of good new stuff, it's just not on the radio, for the most part

i was pretty happy to hear The Black Keys and The Raconteurs at the end of Zombieland :D

[C&CDean]

I've got one. Bose headphones too. Problem is I need to be able to hear the tractor and the implement in case something breaks or goes wrong.

[StoopTroup]

I forgot Little Feat, Frampton, Three Dog Night, Robert Palmer.

[Boarder]

That fancy new tractor should have an aux input you can run the iPod into.

OKC radio is really sad. I just went to Las Vegas and they have a station, 107.9, that is alternative radio but that's not the cool thing. They have the program director doing this commercial saying how they listen to what the listeners have to say. The listeners said to stop playing Nickelback and Kid Rock, so they did. That puts them at the top of my list of coolest stations ever. And, they played Prodigy a couple of times while I was listening.

tape adapter? AUX input?

new decks are cheap... and a lot of them will connect to iPods, etc... now. or play MP3 data cd's

Cool.

[sooneron]

Someone get Dean an iphone, then he can get the 101.9 rxp app and listen to a decent station - old, new, good, it's there...

they stream...

www.1019rxp.com

And I've never heard Nickelback on there.

[Boarder]

Cool.
There's not enough alcohol in Vegas for that to happen.

Pearl Jam disguised as Devo, Whip It.

[King Crimson]

when a problem comes along, you must whip it.

[KC//CRIMSON]

Their "Beautiful World" video was epic.

[Fraggle145]

Whip it good.
