    Last Five....

    ....because it's been a minute.
    Black Sabbath - Vol 4. (current, because I was just reminded)
    TOOL - Fear Inoculum
    King Gizzard - L.W.
    George Harrison - Dark Horse
    MercyMe - Almost There (Christian band. I like them).
    King Gizzard - Gumboot Soup
    The Gizz is dropping a new record in a week.
    Super Duper into them currently.
    They just finished a run of shows at The Caverns in TN. Venue looks cool. Any of you been there?
    Anyways. They played one of those shows in drag. Because, you know, drag queens are a hot topic to some not so smart people. Especially in TN and MT it seems. Vague laws are suspect to me.
    And I was raised on glam metal.
    But some judges are standing up and calling them unconstitutional. Yet, the cow is out of the barn, so too late to backpedal.
    Rock on. And if dudes in dresses, makeup and glitter gets you all riled up, you really need to re-center your compass and focus on more important things and stop trying to be America's babysitters. The kids are going to be alright. Thanks.
    Minor rant over.

    Just for the record, I said the Groundhogs were a great band with a great guitarist.
    Greatness is in the ears of the beholder I suppose. I did LOVE GFR as a kid becoming a teenager, and love listening occasionally, even today. Would never consider them a great band, but they filled a big hole for me when the Beatles broke up, along with Led Zep, Black Sabbath and Deep Purple.

    It’s the anniversary.

    A band that rocks and is not from the U.S or Britain:

    RUSH

    Full disclosure: I like Rush songs up to the mid-80’s or so, then lost interest in new songs, but saw them live 3 times (90, 91, 94) and had a great time each time.
    If you can find the Rush 6 Blu-ray Box it is awesome.

    Hey Gary / 1982 Greek

    Hey Gary, 1982 Greek was a blast, hopefully we will get a box set from the Greek Theatre . Nappy was also there, and Im sure allot of other folks who post here were. I feel very lucky to have been around at a time when I could hear Jerry Garcia and the Dead. Also musicians like, B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Albert Collins, Bill Monroe, Ralph Stanley, Merle Haggard, and on and on and on.

    American Bands

    Years ago in Vail at a Kid Rock concert (note: I do not agree with his politics, but he throws a hell of a party), Detroit native Bobby Ritchie covers, among others, ZZ Top's "Tush" as well as GF's "We're An American Band."

    Rock has at least one woman in his band, his drummer, and when the whole ensemble got to the chorus, they sang, "We're an American band.... we're an American band... we're coming to your town, we'll pull your panties down, we're an American band!"

    It was the fucking coolest. Now I am married and I'm no misogynist, and I find a party anthem like that to be awesome. The song is from the 70s, and there were a lot of panties being pulled down (willingly) by traveling bands. Alas, different times.

    Personally I find the British royalty of bands to be superior to the Yanks in an overall matchup. I mean, you cannot beat the Beatles, Stones, Deep Purple, Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd by any measure. And that's leaving out The Who!

    The best of the west would have to be Aerosmith, ZZ Top, Van Halen, the Doors, Tom Petty, and possibly Guns N' Roses. I suppose one could stand up for the good ol' Grateful Dead as well... but they are just such their own thing they almost defy classification.

    All good. Turn it up!

    Haha, Molly Hatchet, saw them in 1979.

    First song in the cassette deck when I got it installed in the 1968 lifted Jeep Pick-Up, Blackfoot's Train Train.

    Never thought in a million years I would be posting that or that I would see a reference to Grand Funk or especially, Molly Hatchet. I think it was Blackfoot opening for Molly Hatchet seems like fall of 79, or spring of 80. Of course, there was also 38 special which played here around, and at the same time was the Rock n Roll Marathon with Angel, Mother's Finest, Humble Pie, and Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush. It was a hellofa party, but as a concert it was slightly above average. Should have been called Drugs n Roll Marathon.

    I too am remembering things that did not happen. About to interview a gentleman that just stepped down from a major tier 1 Hospital, and when talking about it with on the phone, I asked, "didn't you say a few years back that if we do not get health insurance right, even this hospital would be closed in 10 years." He said, "I never said that."

    Now I am researching local news to see if I can find the quote.

    Yeah, my life is pretty boring sometimes.

    But hey, it is 420 somewhere

    I can list some primo concerts, some incredible arrangements during certain songs,concerts and the band’s members beautiful playing skills& how they performed with each other as a unit. And also the main reason for celebration is “Brent joined the band full time with Keith and Donna gone. I whole new creation acured due to Brent becoming of the ‘Unit’ , team player & grand force as time went by until the band and Brent turned full circle because they found themselves & created a new sound , and further more an example of how the dead made music! Ahh I’m rabble, forgive me. Have a grateful day everyone and peace be with you All! & don’t forget to “smile smile smile”!!!
    Be safe be kind and celebrate life with the music of the grateful dead as a soundtrack to your life. With your ups and downs you’ll never be left down! Keep on truck’n! 1979 Dead Primo! ❤️💀🌹🙏
    … Anyone else believe,Want and think it’s Time-for Another “New Years” Performance Release?’?! Ido! Will do, time will tell ;) Listening to 9/2/79 ! WOW! Another primo concert and performance by the entire band members. Bobs vocals are kicking & Jerry is so intense and in very FINE Vocals & primo guitar.playing! he sucks you in for a far out experience & fide as Brent is right there beside him! They are both tuned into each other! Beautiful! The whole band is on the money! Rock on!

    Hey Billy

    While I my head is on right, temporary, I wanted to say how much those 82 Greek shows mean to me. Can only imagine being there. Sure hope there are Greek & Ventura shows released sometime soon.

    Also, Are you a pro football or college football fan or both?

    We have some awesome barbq around here; you know, south of the Manson-Nixon line. Probably some responsibility for my poor circulation. Over the years beef brisket has supplanted pork for me with great chicken being next. My family has an old chicken sauce that I love using when I put chickens on the ole Weber grill. Planning on doing that on Friday as it is most likely the last time we will be in the 50's for lows until fall. We have had the best spring ever. Usually by now, we are consistently in the mid 90's with lows approaching low 70's every night. By August lows are consistently in upper 70's with oppressive humidity. People wonder why I love fall and spring so much. Nothing like living close to the great bathtub below. Sure hope the gulf is only slowly heating up.

    Grand Funk often seemed to be lumped in with Black Sabbath in the British press and written off as being rubbish in the same way. But like I said a few weeks ago, the music press in the 70's were often about 5 years out of date - I liked Sabbath, and I assumed I would Grand Funk, too. But apart from two singles "We're An American Band " and "Locomotion". I never heard anything by them. Even then, I knew these couldn't be representative. Not having infinite funds I never got round to buying an album by them.
    Until about 6 years ago, when I was 60. I got the box set "A Trunk of Funk" which consists of their first 6 albums. Taken on their own terms, which is the only way of evaluating a band, I thought they were great. A lot more soulful than I was expecting with a great drum and bass sound. Nothing remotely like Black Sabbath. If there was an British equivalent, I would say it was Humble Pie - but to me Grand Funk were better at what they did.
    That's a disappointing comment from Phil, dissing the band on that official release. You wouldn't really expect him to like them - I shouldn't think he liked Iggy and The Stooges either. But to diss a much younger band when you are on stage is never a good look.

Alexandra Palace is 150 years old today. Birthday party is in progress outside the venerable venue.

….but even my dumb ass knows “my” bird isn’t a morning Dove. It actually makes many woo woo sounds in quick almost staccato succession and extended duration often as they take flight. The pitch rises a bit and then falls over the course of the song. I’ve never been able to see any as their usually only active at night, or dusk.
BUT!! via my good bird brained amigos here at DN I now have the Merlin app on device and ready to capture my prey if you will, hopefully this evening…though I’m not sure their fully arrived yet. I briefly heard one recently, but that’s it. Eventually they will fill the night air for their somewhat short visit. Certainly not the best Bird Song ever but pretty sweet (see, got the dead connection in there ; )

Now if the VGN can just tidy things up this evening….

....last Five.
Phish - Spartanburg, SC 10.29.94. Latest archival release.
GOGD - Giants Stadium 7.9.89.
Metal Church - Congegration Of Annihilation.
King Gizzard - Quarters!
Steely Dan - Pretzel Logic.

Oro, be careful after dark, some people claim birds came from dinosaurs... why they have lizard feet. Since the next guess with the woowoo and time of day would be owls, it's obviously not owls...? If you want to hear some weird sounds, check out calls various juvenile owls make, also found in Merlin.

are you, who, who, who, who!
Nah, not Owls, we have several of those at times.
One of the golf courses I worked at had some huge nesting owls right near the cart barn. And after hanging out together alone with them on many a summers eve, I could actually get them to talk with me….oh, what did they say you ask? “Drive for show, putt for doe, gotta work on that short game Hoss!”
Perhaps the coolest of our local birds are all the different big raptors we have, though the. huge Turkey Vultures are most impressive.
We’re fortunate to have a wetlands close by that they’ve been fixing up and depending on time of year it’s a veritable treasure trove of our winged friends. I look forward to utilizing the app to learn more about them, cept beware the moors at night…

I am on board with your Knights!!!

Seen some damn good hockey, but at times, you can tell with the long season and real grind at the end that there is some real tiredness also. Just my casual observation.

Disney now floating that espn could be streaming only in a few years. I wish I could by a season ticket for the Predators, and maybe the Atlanta Braves as i do not get bally sports regional channels any more. Makes me :(

And Birds, we have owls, doves like crazy, but also Bald Eagles and Red Tail Hawks. With no hunting, their populations are starting to get pretty big.

I never went to the Alexandra Palace - although as it is still standing, there is still time. Apart from the Dead's performances there, it is most known to me for the legendary "14 Hour Technicolour Dream" festival that took place in Spring 1967. Featuring many of the new at the time psychedelic bands, and culminating with Pink Floyd in the early hours of the morning. There is a documentary of all this on dvd - sometimes misleadingly advertised as being of Pink Floyd's set. Which it's not - it's mainly made up of interviews as I remember it. Interesting, though.

Is like a drug to me. Like oxygen, I need it to live. I’m struggling with a spouse who just is not on board with my passion. It’s sad, and quite frustrating.
Anybody else ever have to deal with this??
It feels like someone intentionally trying to snuff out my pilot light.

Anyway, I don’t want to bring anyone down on a beautiful Sunday morning. So, me and the cats are the only ones awake right now so, I’m gonna listen to WHATEVER I WANT TO!!
Wishing everyone peace & peace of mind as we remember the brave souls who allowed us to live free and enjoy the beauty of this blue rock.
First up, the new Paul Simon album. I hear it’s good!! After that, it’s Thelma time, bonus disc first!!

The Other One is a book junkie, full on needle to the vain…BUT!
Considering how much of a music junkie I am, and I don’t do cans, so overall she’s a good sport, though there are times…ahem
. Issues usually arise from more specific grievances: “it’s too loud” or “oh no, not that phuching Bob Weirdo again” being the most common. I’m fortunate to have different rooms to go listen, but the uninsulated cardboard walls are no match and almost non existent for the wall of sound lol.
But after being happily unmarried for 26 years ya learn to adjust or go bust…
So tips!
Number one, if she’s getting to read, than I can usually get away with whatever, within reason lol.
If both of us are hanging in the living room I try to pick stuff we both like, though she’ll tolerate some dead. She likes Jer for the most part but is sick of Tennessee Jed after all these years. But Bob, well lol, that’s another story. She’s more sick of Me and my Uncle than even I am so that gets skipped a lot, and if I mute parts of PITD, especially the “murderd cat” part, that helps. The key I find is to feel, intuit or know when I can slide a show in, or when to break out the Bill Evens! Sometimes I’ll pop in some crap I know she really likes, that she knows I don’t like, either just after a show if I feel reparations are required, or sometimes just before I’m thinking of blasting off to soften her up.
Otherwise, it’s best to retreat to the stereo room, but keep it on 6 instead of 11…(ugggg, like having a Porsche that you can only drive in a 30 mph zone)
But sometimes….sorry Tutz. Sometimes ya just gotta let er rip. Fortunately she understands that for the safety and overall well being of the planet this occasionally needs to happen.
Perhaps it just comes down to two junkies tolerating as part of the enabling ; )

Someday, when they put me in some horrible place, and am not allowed to have anymore possessions, I will have to succumb to some nice cans and the sweetest portable rig I can have smuggled in and hid inside my toilet top, cause music is really the best, and life is pointless without it!
So hang in there Mr Ones, we feel yer pain, we are everywhere!
Ps, sounds like you need some cans!

Hard choices amigos, 100 Db of pure crystal clear multitrack dead versus serene but boring communal existence…
When in doubt, happy wife, happy life usually works ; )

I heard my bird briefly last night but not long enough to grab my Merlin app…the hunt is on…

For all the advice and support. It helps more than you know.
The Paul Simon album actually led me to a Micheal Hedges sidetrack. The first song on P. Simon REALLY reminded me of Ragamuffin from Michael Hedges’ 2nd album “Aerial Boundaries”. From there I went straight to my favorite Hedges album, Taproot. This album is not for everyone, but it was the 1st Michael Hedges album to feature multiple instruments on most cuts. Plus, the last song is an ee cummings poem set to music, with a Crosby/Nash backing vocal. Beautiful stuff!!

Tomorrow is another day. Best Memorial Day wishes/memories to all.

You guys (and gals) are always awesome!!

Oro - my 2 bits are on it being a Poorwill. If its active at dusk into night that pretty much limits it to a handful of species - basically owls and nightjars like Poorwill and Nighthawk. Though they're common def not a Nighthawk based on description and consistently hearing an owl species other than a Great Horned seems a stretch. Saying that, there's some lesser known owls that have pretty unusual calls, e.g. Saw-whets, Northern Pygmy, and Flammulated. Many years ago Ex (still a close friend) and I once experienced a beautiful moonlit night in the junipers out in SE Oregon near Malheur with a migrating flock of Saw-whets - pure magic.

Though I haven’t found anything exact, so far the Boreal Owl comes closest…thanks for the recommendations.

My favourite sequence, and my favourite piece of music by Jimi Hendrix is from Woodstock - Star Spangled Banner- Purple Haze-Woodstock Improvisation-Villanova Junction.

edit - how can I forget The Star Spangled Banner

Too young to see Jimi. So some simple pleasure memories are these. I had to work a Memorial Day Weekend in Farmington NM ca. 2014. A little street fair along the river that weekend. One of the bands laid down Third Stone > Tomorrow Never Knows - way very cool. Nearly 39 years ago at the Chicago Blues Festival in Grant Park with some way strong boomers on board (6/7/85). Stevie Ray Vaughn blasting Voodoo Child and Come On (Part 1). Time travel and all that, that night. And Alpine '87 first night - opening chords of Watchtower out of The Wheel- holyshit.

A Boreal Owl? That would be something.

A guy I used to work with, who was 10 years older than me had the opportunity to see the Jimi Hendrix Experience in London in early 1967. He passed it by...reason being he didn't like pop music - just jazz. A bit of a conversation stopper. He looked at me as though to say "And was I wrong?" How to break it to him.
Just goes to show you can be the right age, in the right place, in the right year...and still miss out on the action.

A few years ago I went to a high school football state tournament playoff game. A student from one of the schools played the Star Spangled Banner Hendrix style before the game. He did a good enough job that he received a standing ovation. I'm not sure the other high school students even knew what he was doing but me and my friend enjoyed it immensely. Pretty cool for a high school kid.

So, I have decided to root for the Golden Knights because I have to back my man VGUY!!

Also, I did catch that Leo Kottke/Michael Hedges tour. It was sublime. I saw Mr. Hedges approx. 40 times, mostly in the '80's when he would do a lot of local shows due to his being a student at the Peabody Conservatory of Music.

Speaking of birds, A female duck (not sure which genus) has decided to lay and hatch eggs behind our house in the mulch we put down. I'll Keep Y'all posted on developments.

If it's 3 OF my favorite Hendrix tunes and not MY ABSOLUTE 3 favorites, i can do that:

Are You Experienced
If 6 Was 9
Jam Back At The House-As it appeared on the Woodstock 2 S/T- This is more a childhood memory thing, always LOVED hearing this from the Woodstock 2 Soundtrack!!
That was easy!!

Go Knights!!
Music is the Best!!

The only time I heard Michael Hedges live was when he opened for JGB in December 1984 in Seattle.

With an extra $600 I could get that boxed set.
We all have our priorities. To each his own.
Cheers and good luck VGK and Vguy. Will be fun.
