Amen.

Thanks guys.
 
The passing of my Dad was pretty much expected as he was 85 and in poor health.  As these things go, it probably went as well as it could. I got to spend 4 days with him awake and alert after he was rushed to the hospital in what we were told was a comatose state from which he it unlikely he would awake. He got to see all of his kids, grand kids, and his great granddaughter (my first grandchild) and speak with them while he was still with us. His passing away peacefully while he slept was the easy part. Its the family squabbling over what he left that makes me glad I'm here in Minnesota while most of the family is in Connecticut.

I'm glad you were able to spend some time with him.

It's good you got a chance to spend time with him at the end...I'm glad I got to with my Mom at the end; I think she was relieved that it was all over. Life had been a mess for her for a long time so I think in a weird way she was kinda glad...Alas for me there was a bunch of stuff I wanted to get the truth on (she wasn't very good at that) that I just didn't ask about to keep her peace, so now I'll never know...oh well...Tony.
 
CRAP! let's get back on thread people!!!!

Lincoln Durham - The Shovel vs. The Howling Bones
A Perfect Circle - Thirteenth Step

Jack Bruce: Silver Rails & Ratdog: Live at the Northrup 6/13/14
 
Jacks voice has gotten a bit thin but the guy can still play.
 
Listening to the recorded version of the Bob Weir and Ratdog Concert I saw last Friday evening at the newly renovated  Northrup Auditorium in Minneapolis, MN. First time a recorded version of a concert has had a lot better sound than I heard live. Live, the bass was mush and the vocals at time unable to be understood. On the recording,  you can actually hear individual notes.

sometimes the soundman is listening to the board and sometimes the room; in this case clearly the former...Tony

This is fun!  Phil w/ John Scofield, Warren Haynes, Jeff Chementi, and Joe Russo.  Sunshine of Your Love into Loose Lucy, with a middle section that Jazzyvee might find interesting.

Living Colour - Vivid
Living Colour - Time's Up
 
Vernon Reid shreds!

I couple decades ago I was in a band that tried to do Cult of Personality.  I can't recall if we ever actually played it in front of people; but it was a fun tune to practice.

J o e y, funny I just finished listening to Two Against Nature. Love the first track grove.

Listened to the Grateful Dead concert at Soldier Field on 6/22/91 today. Taking in a beautiful summer afternoon, the Dead on headphones, it's a beautiful thing....

Been a long week, needed something heavier . . .
Audioslave - Audioslave
Audioslave -  Out of Exile
Medicine Wheel - Anuresis
 
The later is a friends old band, recorded in Milwaukee circa 1997.
 
The former , I had never listened to before . . 'supergroup' with Chris Cornell and Rage Against the Machine guys - it rocks!
:-D

Fu Manchu 'Gigantoid' yup, sounds like them; seriously all their albums sound alike, except 'California Crossing' which has less fuzz...and Boris 'Noise' A band almost on the other end of the scale who change it up quite a lot; there's always some heavy in there but they can be so delicate and beautiful at the same time...I dunno, maybe like a tank driving through a field of poppies?...anyway, somehow Japan can spawn bands that can actually create and walk that tightrope...Tony

i listen Ras MidasRastaman in exil
80's reggae
