“I’ve wanted to for years and so has Woody and Kenny. Rod is now interested it seems and I’m real pleased about that, and he’s serious about it. I mean we’re trying to get it together, it’s just a question of schedules,” McLagan told 6 Music: “We’re hoping to get together later this year, just to get together, to play and then we may have some news - but I want it to happen, badly. It’s gonna be great if it does happen.”
And if you can track it down, get Ronnie Wood’s appearance on the talk show (60 Minutes-style) “The South Bank Show,” a must for any fan and covers Wood in all his worlds — rock, painting, farm life, family and (semi) sobriety.
****if you are frequenter to this here joint you know it has issues dealing with safari. i think i may have solved that issue. so, if you are using safari, or have safari handy, please try and download something and let me know what happens. just leave a comment, if you could be so kind******
sup, go-tards? while your here make sure to check out the new sera cahoone and alan sparhawk, ex-low and now retribution gospel choir, stuff i posted over the week ends.
huh? what? pavement reunion? you gotta be kidding me? love how malkmus says he wants a one off and ibold wants to get back on that train. what the hell is ibold doing now anyway? still a ways off, 2009, but hopefully more info will unfurl by the summer.
back in 93 i was all over the gin blossoms’ new miserable experience. even to this day i pull out from time to time and dig on it. its simply just a great little pop/rock record, nothing more, nothing less. if you are around my age, 33, and deny ever singing along to “allison road” or “found out about you,” your a god damn liar.
here they are at shooters on 4.26.92, i think shooters maybe in cleveland cause they mention the flats. sorry i didnt do any research as to the venue, and i should note that its a fm broadcast. if you know where shooters is, let a brotha know.
hope all my fellow americans had a most excellent memorial day weekend. all you non americans i guess i hope you had a good weekend too. mine was interesting/good to say the least. imagine camping with a 2.5 year old and you will get the idea. or if you dont have children, imagine camping with a puppy that you cant keep on a leash. sounds like fun, right? sometimes he was great other times yeah not so much. we had fun though. i did get to push the limits of cleanliness, i didnt take a shower for 3 days. parts of me that i didnt know were possible to smell, of course stank pretty rank.
i will not deny that during the years of 1991 - 1994, smashing pumpkins were probably my favorite group on the planet. by the time melon collie rolled out i had kinda stopped caring, which is really no fault of theirs its just that i had grown out of them. i still listen to gish and siamese dream quite often, although gish is showing signs of definte aging while siamese dreams still sounds pretty fresh. this is all given the fact that both are more than 14 years old.
so it was with mild intrigue that i delved into this pumpkins show from paris. i gotta admit the new songs sound pretty good, this is to say much better than the shit on the last few pumpkins records. definitely going back to basics with more of a guitar based sound - which is definitely a good thing.
the remainder of the show will but up later this evening. if you notice that the track count posted here is different than on the mp3 tag its cause i didnt post two fade in/out tracks.
