i had a nice day, but lets focus on the negatives...
my favorite band of the day was mostly Unkle live. wow hugemoungus sound that hit your insides before your ears.
why did carl cock get wheeled out yet AGAIN? why did he have the closing slot in teh boiler room insted of LCD soundsystem? i think the schedule makers are tied up with ZM or something.
Bjork is terrible outside and the RATM fans were even more terrible towards her. I'd put her on teh lilly pad. heh
Shihad probably had their biggest BDO they've ever had. probably should have been in Bjorks spot. probably
TPF were drinking Steiny Pure while i was drinking plastic bottled Lion Red. They were nice outside it felt like a back yard gig.
Spoon were lost in the RATM of it all. Organisagtioans againn boo.
Arcade Fire are so choice man.
Pluto need to revise their arena rock set list, they have the arseinhole of tunes but played the wrong ones again. nice pink clothes too bro. errr.
The Bleeders were fucking cool on the main stage. well done, awesome.
Tiki-shifter is something i still need to get my head around. It's a bit of a mash up. er i dunno.
i decided to watch RATM insted of LCD i figured which one would i most likely be able to see again live. Like Prozaco said, the crowd reaction was crazy. never have i ever seen the whole field and 3 grandstands full and moving like that before. there was moshing on the grandstands ffs! amazing sight to see indeed.
i would have swapped stages with TPF and Pluto too.
LCD Soundsystem Vs RATM = meltdown
FUCK YOU.
Do they do it on purpose? pick names out of a hat? really, it's wrong all day. AGAIN
It's now half as good as i thought it would be.
thanks.
is there anywhere i can hear shihads new song on the internet?
im going to see them at the rising sun next week. they do know that they can only bring one amp each to this venue, right?
i thought this was going to be a thread about wrestling.
You're right technically i don't own anything. Actually I think my attitude is more like - get fucked i'm not paying for it.
I downloaded the 'album' because i was curious to hear any differences of course. Especially seeing the 3 of them had overseen the mastery process.
I don't think re-mastered songs have the same value as brand new songs, regardless if they sound better and were remastered from scratch - which it doesn't and wasn't.
Is that honest enough for you?
i'd extend that to compilations and greatest hits too.
i recently grabbed a mothership of a torrent, as far as i'm concerned i already owned it.
probably more than twice over too.
the exception would be the trip to Thailand.
when in Rome and all that.
no, definately it's class.
one is on dialup with a crt monitor maybe. the other has broadband with a widescreen LCD.
there's a possible i-ronny...
the obvious flaw here is buying the beatles cd...
what if i bought the Beatles CD and grabbed Britneys off a torrent? I could then wait till Britney was on the cover of the Womans Day and buy that from Real Groovy.
you see the problem in Sri Lanka?
yeah i thought NZ might have grown up a bit. seems not.
The HMX500, although a very respectable machine in 1985 really had nothing on the LIMITED EDITION HMX600 it was blue and the kid down the road who owned it was the man. Don't feel bad though, most people probably never even heard of it and probably won't believe it existed.
The end of the 10 speed...
heh nice. hello you guys!
man, remember when bands used to fear this place hehe.
I'm off christian rock these days. However, in October i did manage to see Stereolab at the Fonda center in Hollywood for some Motown madness. (i think they're coming this way early next year, so choice man.)
And last week i realized a dream that was "The Leps" omg cmon steve... (i actually found out that i don't know that many songs) but yeah still. cmon Steve!!
Hope you guys are well.
