Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

[dwaugh]

Okay, I live up the mountain from Pelham. Always curious how people are hearing about The Caverns.

A friend works a lot of the concerts. I had been wanted to see Mummies for a while and she got me a ticket.

It passed me I guess. I just listen to my digital stuff. I like a lot of different bands. Don’t care for guys screaming at me tho. No clue who a lot of these guys are.

People usually talk about the warmth of vinyl. I personally prefer clean, crisp digital sounds. It's personal preference. I have a turntable primarily because I have some old records that were not available for download/stream/CD. Most of that stuff has since been digitized, but it some of was digitized from vinyl and not from master tape so the vinyl actually does sound better because it's the 'master'. Then you get into the whole 'purity' thing. I've listened to some old multi-generation (taped from a tape that was taped from a tape, etc.) cassettes where you can barely comprehend the music but a good engineer can digitally remaster that stuff and create a nice clean sound. The question then becomes, 'Am I listening to the artist, or am I listening to what the engineer created?' Some people want to know that they are as close as possible hearing what the musicians laid down, or a least what the original engineer created.

It doesn't just stop with vinyl in general. I have an uncle recently ordered some sort of quadraphonic decoder from Japan for his HiFi system, so now he only wants quadraphonic records. I guess you get more cred from being in a lighter niche.

I saw Bad Company, Nugent and Skynyrd together at Lakewood in Atl back in the early 90s. I was trippin on LSD and Nugent playing a 10 minute solo on Stranglehold whith all those lasers and strobes going nuts is something I will never forget..

Nugent was my first concert 1981. Screeching Loud AF.

I'm not either, but I love Frank Sinatra..

 

[MoCo_Vol]

A few others that are in a grey area and I kinda consider 'em less Americana and more of an indie/folk type

Foy Vance, Ray LaMontagne, David Gray (a bit more pop), Amos Lee, Gregory Alan Isakov, The Civil Wars (sadly split up now), Damien Rice, Ben Howard, Willie Watson, Noah Gundersen, & Rayland Baxter

 

[zhangliao04]

I'm pretty sure they have a real good idea of who the starters are right now on the OL

You're probably right. I just think it may be a soft list and will become more clear over the first week or maybe two if there truly is a competitive spot between two players.

Live look at Bass' music listenin' hour

I hated Hee Haw as a kid, when my parents would watch on our one and only family TV. Now I watch reruns and wonder how in the heck I could never have liked Roy's pickin' and Buck's grinnin'. Guess I'm getting old.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Also HUGE fan of Erick Baker (local artist) have had the pleasure to meet him a few times as well, amazing person.

Do yourselves a favor when he plays the Bijou or anywhere close to you go see him.

The Allman Bros at the World Fair Campground mid-90’s is still the best show I’ve ever been to from a pure quality of music standpoint. Led Zeppelin reunion tour with Jason Bonham on drums is second.

Nugent was my first concert 1981. Screeching Loud AF.

I honestly don't remember much about Nugent besides Stranglehold. I remember BC doing Bad Company and Hot Blooded, and LS for some reason was doing some cool stuff they didn't do in all the other LS shows I had been to, like Mississippi Kid, Crossroads, Curtis Lowe and Tuesdays Gone. It was probably my favorite LS show of the six I have attended.

 

[Glitch]

David Allan Coe
Frank Zappa
Lynyrd Skynyrd

I saw Coe at a Western bar in Macon, Ga in the mid-90s. I could swear he lip-synched the whole thing and the two grizzly-sized rednecks he had flanking him were definitely not playing their bass and guitar, respectively. I thought for sure the man had at least a foot and half in the grave. I am totally shocked that he still alive.

 

[Rishvol]

Newt was definitely rocking some Stryper back in the day

You were probably just trippin in your car listening to the stereo and just thought you were at the show...lol
Bad Company does not play Hot Blooded..that is Foreigner.

[VolunteerHillbilly]

I see a lot of bands being mentioned that are part of the Exit 111 Festival in Manchester this Fall. I'm not much of a festival person, but I may look into a one-day visit.
