Hi'
'Early morning Rain' and '***** Willows, Cattails' always make me mellow, he is a great singer, heck I probably like a lot more but those two spring immediately to mind, as for 'If you could read my mind' that's a core meltdown track!
'Hat Lady' *tee hee* I suppose I 'asked' for that! laugh


He played that too!

Love the Hat! Why are all my kindred spirits always in the UK? I feel stuck in Middle Earth...but obviously making the best of it.:angel:

We got BB King with Al Green and Buddy Guy in a few weeks!


Thanks for counting me as one of your kindred spirits smile2 'Stuck in Middle Earth', not a bad place to be smile2

btw what do you think of the Gordon Lightfoots' cover of Roberta Flacks', 'The First Time....', personally, he captures the song in a way I have NEVER heard before, truly moving and beautiful..........(tears)laugh


WOW, DL'd that one...very nice one I had not heard! Will have to share that one soon...lol. oops, you may have gotten me laid.

I love Roberta Flack....a fellow Tarheel(Black Mountain, NC) she's in Japan right now...hope she comes close when she get's back to the mainland. If you haven't noticed yet I am a concert junkie.surprised

No, I hadn't noticed at all that you are a 'Concert Junkie' :laughing: , nothing like hearing music live to gage whether bands need the studio or not, Muse imo, really do produce the same sound live as they do on CD.....btw Gordon and Roberta have that effect on people don't they shocked blushing laugh


Nah, I am more about experiencing the artist's live performance to connect with them and their music. To feel what they convey from their lives and the reasons and meanings behind the songs. It's not important that they try to sound like the studio recordings (to me).

Sometimes you can be half way through a Dylan song before you can tell what song it is...shucks, I once finally heard Dylan do Tangled Up In Blue live and he left out my favorite verse from it...lol.

"She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
"I thought you'd never say hello," she said
"You look like the silent type."
Then she opened up a book of poems
And handed it to me
Written by an Italian poet
From the thirteenth century.
And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burnin' coal
Pourin' off of every page
Like it was written in my soul from me to you,
Tangled up in blue."

That's OK Mr. Zimmerman,...Good to see you again...lol.

Yeah, I've see maybe 300 shows with a thousand acts overall. It' my thing...






That's a lot of shows! But the missing verse didn't spoilt your enjoyment of the concert, did he have more songs in his set where he remembered all the verses?laugh
I have seen my share of bands over the years, for me I have to hear them live if I have heard them on the radio/CD and liked them, I want to hear if the studio made them sound good or they really are that good. It just irks me when some bands get used to the studio and forget the live show. sad2


Well of course not...saw Dylan a few months back in Tulsa and he doesn't miss a word or verse now...mainly because he plays onljy keyboards and has all the lyrics prints on top of it...lol...last month Robert Plant used cheat sheets on the floor, even stopped one song he screwed up...did I mind?, hell no!, it was an honor to see him again.

One band that goes to great lenghts to do their material well live is Pink Floyd...well Roger Waters in '08, (it was '94 since I last saw the other Floyd.) Got The Wall in November at Dallas...can't wait for that one.

Ya gotta remember that live they can't dub like in the studios. Gotta take it at face value.

Read Lightfoot's show review for Grand Prairie, TX, the writer took a cheat shot about Gordon's voice not being as it used to be....what a dick huh? He's like 72? Excuse me? He sounded ok to me for that age...and again, to see him still doing it so well was incredible and entertaining.




*ahhhhh* to take a band at 'face value' defeats, imo, the sound they are putting out on the CD. Led Zep (I can accept RP and GF don't hit the high notes like they used to because of age and many performances!Yep, the critic/writer was a 'dick' :laughing:) BUT bands like Muse, from the recordings to the venue, sound the same, Hawkwind from recordings to the venue sound the same....so when a band takes to the stage and you have certain expectations, to be let down by the live performance.....tears
example: Ladyhawke......great on CD........awful live, imo!!

Hi,
Personally speaking, the ease of use, the humour of the people on here and the varied and intersting subjects people want to share/talk about. I have found this to be quite a unique place
and I feel very comfortable posting when I have something to say......

Hi DeathsTreaty,

Here goes:

Today ~ (made me smile)
Do not forget who you are and who you want to be
Don't forget the little things that make you smile

Babble ~ (my personal fave)
No spark, No flame, No desire
Don't want to leave myself behind
Don't want to live in a daze
Want to be somewhere

Change of today
Taking me somewhere
No longer a dream I live

Flavor of Tears ~ (thought provoking)

When ~ (sad, reminded me of someone)
When the Mind shatters
.....
Is that is when?

For me, the poems 'ask' questions, as if thinking out loud, the 'flow' may not make sense just written down, there is reasoning and creative linking, the questions are answered in a way that is realateable (my word NOT in the dictionary laugh)either through our own experiences or what we know someone else has been through.

That's the 'flow', the linking. (imo) waving
