    Slayer definitely isn't for everyone Cousins....

    ....but neither is the Grateful Dead.
    Slayer kicks ass. So does the Dead.
    Depends on my mood at the time.
    I decided to go with South Of Heaven instead. Mood is good.
    Metal is good house cleaning music 🎵
    Grab that dustrag and mop and clean that shit! Or we will kick your ass. LOL.
    Music is the best. Keeps my batteries charged.
    Tom is a good man. Google him.
    Last Five
    South Of Heaven.
    My Morning Jacket - Waterfalls.
    King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Infest The Rats Nest.
    The Doors - LA Woman.
    Mercyful Fate - Don't Break The Oath.
    Speaking of screaming, King Diamond deserves a nod. Great vocal range. Rock on. Especially the nervous parents.
    I turned out ok. Btw, is there a way to play CD's backwards? Asking for a friend.
    Edit....Last Six. Supertramp - Even In The Quietest Moments.
    Always loved the cover.

    Fantastic drummer! He's off and on with the Misfits nowadays.
    Slayer's definitely not for everybody, I consider them the aural equivalent of Bosch paintings; didn't catch them until 1988 at the Mountain View theatre, which was the last rock show that they had there, Mountain View just could not handle it(Tom Araya's intro: "Welcome to Mountain puke")

    Tom Araya sighting!....

    ....RIP Slayer. I remember seeing them back in 1985 in a club of maybe three hundred people. Saw them four times since.
    Dave Lombardo was a machine! Reign In Blood is still an all-time favorite record of mine. In fact, I might relisten to it again tonight.
    Rob Halford has a great scream also.
    Oh. And an obligatory 🖕 to Yoko.

    That's a great clip of Yoko wailing with Chuck Berry. I don't think Chuck put up with much he didn't like - but even he seems a bit reticent about going up against John Lennon.

    Thanks Cousins, that made my day.
    The looks on Chucks face….priceless!
    DG outta keep that clip handy on her phone so next time somebody gives her grief she can wip this one out lol

    Agree about JB. Never saw JB, but did see Maceo at a small gig.
    Holy crap what a great show!
    Knew of him, figured I’d like it, but yeah, that was one of those sometimes you get shown the light gigs.

    Maceo...I feel so good I wanna' screeeeaaam

    We forgot to mention James Brown; one of the great screamers, one of the few that could really pull it off, along with Roky Erikson.
    Also well worth a mention, Tom Araya.
    At the other end of the scream spectrum, there's Yoko "jamming" with Chuck Berry on TV, look it up!
    Janis was great when not screaming; the Pearl LP is her best, in my opinion.

    Sorry to laugh at your predicament PF, but it is kinda funny though (if it’s not yer couch!) perhaps not as funny as stepping in poop in the middle of the night ; ) Not laughing at you (or vguy) just life!
    “Life is a carnival, believe it or not, life is a carnival, two bits a shot”
    I seem to HAVE to smash my old battered knee on the corner of the bed during late night pee trips, especially when I think of it, and try not too lol.
    I can feel your frustration through your words…your not alone, 2020s bad mojo continues: after everything else that went wrong last year, cars, sinks, washers etc, now our 3 year old radon fan just went from whisper quiet to beyond annoying high pitched whirring that you can here all over the house.
    Place it sounds the loudest/worst…right above my big dedicated stereo listening chair, Dooaahh!
    So hang in there brother, this darkness got to give….doesn’t it?

    JANIS: yeah I’ve always had mixed feelings about Janis. Her energy and often gut wrenching sound was definitely powerful, but sometimes the screaming is too much…OR, I’m just becoming yet another off my lawn grump old bastard! It would have been interesting if she’d stuck around, as you’d think, like Jimi was, she’d want to move on eventually. Playin with the Elevators before she became a legend would have been interesting…

    GARY: ok, you’ve got me really interested in 12/30/86. It sounds familiar but I’m not at home so can’t look and see if I’ve seen/heard it? I’ve always liked 3/24/86 best out of what I’ve heard from that year. Another of those years it’s easy to sorta write off, but then you find some occasional chestnuts that make you go whoa! (Like every year really).
    I think up you said it’s listed as 12/31 on usetube? Hmmmm I’ll have to check it out!
    Glad to see ya and hope you’ve been well?

Your collection probably needs the Fleetwood Mac ‘Worlwide Live’ unofficial Box.
10 CD’s for $40.
8 Fleetwood Mac CD’s ranging from 1968 at the Carousel to 1990, along with a Stevie solo and a Lindsey solo.
Sounds pretty good. The only show that I already had was the 75 show. FM/pre-FM sources.
I figured that for $4/CD I should check it out.

I popped in the giants stadium 7/12, and it gets me every time. The whole first set like HIAB, loser, and TOS. the band was firing on all cylinders, especially Jerry and Brent with that tinkling keyboard is so sweet. Being there for most of the shows makes me bias. Just had to mention it. Back to dap 44. Great show.

If I could pick only one Grateful Dead show to see out of all the shows they played, it would be one of the acoustic/ electric shows from 1970.

Another one. Yikes! It's everywhere now.
And not a mask in sight.
Take it easy PF.
My local friend took a week. His wife like 10 days.
And they were just ready to get their bi-valent (Omicron+Corona).
I went and found the bi-valent (still scarce here) right after that.
Full effect around third week after booster, so about now for me.
But we are still doing masks in crowded stores since we have some COPD.
Best wishes and cheers

I purchased Dave's Picks 44, and it arrived as scheduled. The outer mailing box was punctured, and when I opened it, little pieces of plastic starting falling out. The CD case was broken. When I opened that, I discovered that CD3 was chipped and cracked. Today I listened to CD1 and discovered that it was defective. Tennessee Jed > Promised Land does not play. Anyone else have this problem? I have not listened to CD2 yet. I contacted customer service, and I learned that there were no replacement CDs available. Defective merchandise can be returned for a full refund. I am hoping that someone would be willing to email me digital copies of those songs that I am missing so that I can at least have the complete show. As I said, songs 1-7 on CD1 are fine. Songs 8>9 are defective. I haven't tried playing CD2, and CD3 is no good at all. Can somebody please help me out? Thank you!

Send a PM to MaryE.

In case you haven't sent a PM before: To send a PM, if you are logged in, on the upper right of the screen are your account options, cleck here, select messages and you can probably figure out how to send a PM from here. either that or fumble through customer service. They can probably pull something better than a refund off..??

Edit: Ooops.... Proudfoot beat me to this by a couple hours. I didn't see his response before I replied. Apparently, he and his dog have been eating mushroom chocolates all day and have developed super human powers as evident by their lightening fast and accurate response.

My dog Sarge, the brindle bull Mastiff had cancer, and was put down tonight. 14 years old. He was a loyal companion. "He's gone."

Condolences Carlo13.

I'm pretty certain that Sarge was very happy to have had you around with him for 14 special years. You took good care of him and now he has an opportunity to rest. You provided space in this world for him and that is a special love that was returned.

Stay strong and stay positive.

Carlo - Sorry to hear you had to put to sleep your beloved dog companion Sarge. Such a tough loss.

Sorry to hear about your loss Carlo, losing a pet is very sad.

Putting down a faithful companion may be the hardest thing you'll ever do in this life. This from an animal person who put down his 20-yr-old cat earlier this year. The day-to-day intimate and often subconscious connection is nearly unbreakable. And yet... mercy requires courage and acceptance. This will be hard in the days ahead. I survived by focusing on the blessing and cosmic luck of the years together and the realization, which does not come easy, that "there's nothing you can hold for very long," thanks Robert Hunter.

You did good for fourteen years and your departed buddy would wish you peace. As do we.

Condolences Carlo. So sorry Sarge's glorious 14 year run with you had to end. How lucky you both have been! As hard as it is to put down our four-legged companions when the time comes, they count on us to do the right thing to the very end. My 12 year old brindle Mastiff mix Annie is recovering from knee surgery, and I know her day will come sooner than later. I'll shed tears, but know she's counting on me. It's sad that dogs' and cats' lives are so much shorter than ours, but they sure do pack a lot into their time with us. Onward

I have had pets (dogs & cats) since 1965. It occurred to me years ago, that when I sign up to take a new animal (I call them my children, as I have no human children), we are implicitly signing up for an unknown time period of joy, and also, some days of grief & sadness. To me, this is still a good deal, but it makes the heartbreak no less painful or intense. I don't ever want to live without the unconditional love of a cat or dog, so I go in knowing the deal. I believe my life is always better with the love of a quadruped.

So, to Carlo, VGUY and everyone else who has lost a "child" recently, you have my total empathy and sympathy.
Carlo, as long as you remember Sarge, he's never really totally gone.
My 2 are 13 (redhead) and 7 (tuxedo) so 1 may go soon or not, but one piece of advice that was given to me was: "always allow 6 months to grieve before getting a new one".
By the way, I have not always taken this advice, but it does make sense to me.
