I usualy play the whole album. I like it to listen to it the way the artist (record company <img> ) planned it. No shuffle for me. But some times I put 5 mix-cd’s (DB-homemade’s) in the player and shuffle them all <img> .
BTW. Why is track 6 or 7 most of the time the most enjoyable track <img> ???
Gratulations for finding a this job!
At the office I don’t have a change to listen to music; just like Allison I have to listen to my mental jukebox. At home, there is always music on. There is a very nice Alternative FM-station around (KINK-FM) and ofcourse I listen to cd’s a lot.
Salamiguy,
The new Rouse is surely worth checking out, I think it is great!Den Buck: a very promissing mix! "the sound" for sentimental reasons?? <img>
Rosa,
I did’nt know this icon was still performing (due to his illness). Must have been great to see him live!

So this Johnston guy is worth checking out when he comes to europe?
I don’t think the strokes are doing anything different then a year ago when they boomed in New York, it is there format.
I was kinda hypnotised during their 50 minutes-show and I felt an electric atmosphere, that doesn’t happen to me often; even the rhythm-guitarlics were sing-a-long tunes. Hypnoses don’t last long, thats probably why it was only 50 minutes <img> <img>
I can understand that a lot of people (including you) are afraid that it’s just a big marketing trap and you don’t want to be in. That is why I keep saying: listen and enjoy their music, just let it enter your sub consciousness and stop interpretate it all to the bone, until the it is dead and scientific. Future of R&R, my ass, no it’s just a good eclectic band. Like Garbage, Sparklehorse, Mercury Rev and Eels and all the other sorry for the word indie alt-bands, they all are quoting too!
They are all standing on the shoulders of giants!I don’t mind if their next album proofs that all you criticasters were right. I have a great album and I saw a great gig!! <img>
Ryan Adams has a great talent and endurance. Saw him twice and he is fantastic (too) c’mon let’s not end in to a Beatles / Stones-discussion….

Look what happens when they start labeling:

At "Listen.com" they think Brian Wilson is an indie / lo-fo musician <img> <img> ‘wouldn’t it be nice/Good vibrations/Californian girls/in my room/surfing USA’
BTW what is AOR??
It’s good to read things changed fast in your favour! I can understand that act & react thing very good…you just needed some space boy
Take care!!I saw a great gig, I felt like something realy happend there. clever guitarlicks, a crazy uptempo drummer and a singer that hypnotized me and a lot of the other visitors. It was a pitty that half the audience were musicjournalists and not fan’s. They were outside, hoping for a ticket!
I am so fed up with all that shit about the future of R&R. Popmusic is not a scientific subject!! Good music a about "that feel" and that’s all!
In the southern part of Holland people use a nice phrase when there is too much talk instead of playing good music. Speuluh!!!! Wich means PLAY!/qb][/quote]Hansione has got a copy of it, without a track-listing, I’m curious if he can find out who’s covering what from whom….. <img> <img> <img> [/QB][/quote]
Hansione sure had a busy night but managed to recognize covers from Hank Williams to Kraftwerk, from Sparklehorse to Otis Redding and from the Stones to Abba.
5 points for den Buck for this great "all covered up". I am dead curious about all my mishits <img> <img>It’s all sorted out. The girlfriend was a real gentleman <img>
I have on rectification to make Allison….it was Philip Morris instead of Rothmans <img>
Yeah Waits is cool! I am a huge fan of Tom. Give me a hint on that Garbagrif, I dig Garbage a lot and I am going to see them in april. L <img> <img> king forewards to that!
Oh yeah fuck:
In my head right now:Heart of darkness by Hazeldine (original by Mark Linkous) Ask den buck why it is in my mental brain <img> <img>Well Allison…all worked out? It is confusing! <img> Still curious about your Rothmans attack.
The girl mantioned was realy realy gentle about it, cause I know she was a-first-moment-fan of the strokes. I’ve actualy saw her jumping up and down whilest playing her vinylcopy in her study…a sight that I cherish…if you know what I mean!!
The sad thing is that she missed the Ryan Adams-gig earlier this month due to flue <img> . So two big ones in a month…it is to bad and I was almost going for "PeteSome" sugestion to let them go instead of me…..but: It would mean: I would have get the tickets in another town, bring them to a pub called Balie at 20.00 houres and then…….go home .
I am a-first moment fan too……look at earlier freakscenetopics!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <img><small>[ 02-26-2002, 07:50 PM: Message edited by: hansione ]</small>
