  1. What a tragic story, but glad she is OK....will definitely give this a good listen!
  2. Got to see my favorite, Mark Burgess of the Chameleons, at a special tour he's doing. He does acoustic, and he has a guitarist doing the echo-y/reverb-y stuff for which the band is well known. REALLY interesting concept, and last night's venue was a little "Coffee Haus" above a Firehouse museum type place. All in Millis, MA, pretty much nowhere. The room was very nice and quite intimate. Took my son, we both loved it, and got to chat with Mark before and after. Lots of good chat about the songs and his history, stuff we had never heard before. Quite a great night. And I'm going to see him again Thursday night at another place.
  3. Saw Jimmy Vivino and Ronnie Earl last week. Really nice Blues, all different types. We went because of Ronnie Earl, and the fact that Jimmy had grown up and went to school in the same hometown as my wife (Glen Rock, NJ); I wasn't familiar with him otherwise. Turned out to be a HELL of a show! Ronnie has a bunch of health issues, so it was great to see him live. And Jimmy was right up there in energy, voice, and spirit. he also had a boatload of great stories from clubs across the states and musicians from the 60's on....
  4. ^^^ That song and In The City are my two favorites of his.....(especially when the latter was used in The Warriors)
  5. So sorry Chris, RIP Jeffrey. My father-in-law had Frontal Lobe too....not pretty. All my best to you and family!
  6. Happy Birthday! Hope it is/was great!
  7. Happy Birthday Birgir!!
  8. Had some friends up in Maine; nice lunch overlooking the ocean (past a pool), then poking around Kennebunkport and Cape Porpoise. Looked like someone was home in the Bush estate, not pictured but there was a Secret Service vehicle parked there. Also a pic of the lighthouse at Goat Island, in Cape Porpoise.
  9. Happy Birthday! Maybe wine from a bottle instead of a box this year? 😄
  10. ^^^ Love it! Was just trying to emulate the vox in Hamburger Lady the other day, while pretending I was shivering and talking at once 😄
  11. Didn't know until today that this existed! Just started listening (24/96), but looking to be a fantastic compliment to the night before!
  12. Happy Birthday Justin!!
  13. I know you're travelling, but hope the day and/or celebration is great!!!
  14. Damn, sorry to hear that Jeff; on top of the COVID & team building crap.....RIP Sharon......
  15. Can't help it, every time I hear this (great) song, I now think of this meme:
  16. Some fun memories rehashed here!! Old Sci-Fi grooviness! BTW, I agree with you Steve, those concave Focal Tweeters on earlier Wilson speakers were way too bright. Even after they went with some dome tweeters, they made a move to metal dome and it screwed up the sound again. Now they are back to fabric dome, sounds much better. But still not worth the $. Focal has kept the concave tweeter, but they have improved the hell out of it IMO....
  17. Funny from Fb today
  18. Gram'erca - fuck yeah! Congrats to you and Joanne!
  19. An awesome and wonderful tribute....those are the memories to treasure.....
  20. Glad for a good service....memories are a blessing, keep them close and always remember the good.
  21. Lovely ep/small album, by ex-lead singer of Sixpence None The Richer, Leigh Nash. Does a nice version of "Kiss Me" on this. She's playing locally this weekend, may go see her as well as long I test negative; venue has good vaccination and mask policies. Also, her web site has a background pic of her in water, and the water moves a bit; kinda neat.... https://www.leighnash.net/
  22. Where I grew up we had a well-know marketplace, Penni's....as you might imagine one of the N's was stolen a bit regularly. Sadly there was a fire in the 90's and it is no more.
  23. Congrats to both of you, Shelly and Yumi! House looks awesome indeed....LOVE the views! Safe travels to Steve. And Jim, welcome to New England! How does it feel to not pay Sales Tax buying in NH?
  24. Very fun, and quite the talent.....!
  25. Up in Maine for the long weekend, after some quick but heavy rains got a nice view (our neighbor's place is basically the same as ours).
