i sort of feel like a bastard for posting that now...
i remember losing my shit when i read in the city pages that "husker du reunion" was playing the turf club. some band calling themselves "husker du reunion"... now THAT is a bastard move!

Convenient how they drop the second T in their first names when they're naming the band. dude, if i were in a band, and everyone was named matt, i would call it the mats, too.

I would've gladly paid for discs of the Pantage shows...if the proceeds went to Paul and the band, of course. Or would that be too commercial? not if the bulk of the proceeds goes to the band, man!

Living Room concert...that would be the coolest eh? My wife and I hosted Pat DiNizio from the Smithereens last year at our home. Other than the birth of our kids, that event was the coolest thing we've ever done!!!!! ha! cool! i spoke with pat dinizio a number of times in fall 1998 or 1999 about doing a show at my house. he was ready to do a backyard show, but our schedules didn't mesh. he was in the middle of his "coast to coast living room tour", and didn't have a mn date at the time. wonder where he played....

because as someone else pointed out, you don't rehearse a band, and not commit to at least a few dates to pay the cats.
it will go through memphis, and i will visit there for the first time.

Lushes go Pee: Those color commentators shouldve joined the rest of the men at the restroom. lush & green is a beautiful song. people should learn to "hold it".

shhh, don't talk about that. it'll make scooter cry. actually, it makes me smile that he didn't play it at the only show i didn't see. then i remember i didn't see the show, and i cry anyway.

My dad and I got into an argument over on-stage guitar smashing. He thinks it's fake, like pro-wrestling, or hired 'stunt' guitars. No wonder the tickets were $40 a head. There must have been a guitar-smashing surcharge included. *clears throat, smooths creases in cheap suit* as acting grand pooba of the local 666, stunt guitars union, i call on all musicians, professional & otherwise, to put a stop to the barbaric practice of smashing us. look, we have no problem with ace frehley putting sparklers on us, or having us lowered from the ceiling into angus young's waiting hands. stunts are what we are hear for, but i have seen to many of my comrades permanently injured, and unable to perform stunts for ted nugent's fans ever again. it all started with paul simonon, and now everybody is all like "smash it! smash it!" i'd like to say, "no more, thank you." on behalf of stunt guitars everywhere, i appreciate your time, and remember, you don't have to smash your guitar to tear it up. stay in school kids, and don't do drugs!

on friday or saturday he very handily dealt with the whole requests thing by essentially saying, "what do you want to hear?", and then letting everybody scream their favorite song for about three minutes (simultaneously, it was just a cacaphony), and then playing whatever song it was that he was already about to do. i noticed that too, and chuckled.
