    Would you go to a concert alone?

    Goodness, absolutely! I went on (most of) Fall tour '18 with Phish - from Hampton to Vegas - alone with the pup! Went up to MN alone recently to catch a few of Neil's shows in -418F weather (about 900 miles one way). One-off shows are also viable on solo status, which yields a freedom of...

    For want of an "i", HO missed a golden naming opportunity that would have synched perfectly with their sound. Remarkable stuff./K

    Grateful Dead (Official Thread)

    Tremendously sad news for the family. Peace, JPB... Fare thee well now, let your life proceed by it's own design. Nothing to tell now, let the words be yours, I'm done with mine.

    New bands that classic rock fans would like...

    TW: A resounding "yes!" to your original, and now aged, inquiry. Both the following bands seem grounded in the Golden Age; but inspiration rather than imitation. Each could be a contemporary, rather than a cover, of Zep & Sabbath, respectively.

    The Du discography is an RnR core sample, which strata neatly exhibits a progression from hard punk to near-elegant post punk by Warehouse. Were it not for Mould's magnificent and continuing solo work, the band's abrupt end after reaching that peak would've been a greater loss of potential than...

    Bottom of the Barrel Teens

    First, I appreciate the opportunity to expand my horizon of knowledge with respect to emergent RnR in the early-mid 60s. That said, with every movement, be it funk, soul, jazz, metal, hip-hop, rap, or electronica, there has always been a teeming mass of acts at the margins that Darwinian...

    Left Lane Cruiser

    I'm pleased at the local enthusiasm, for no other apparent reason than I share it; which seems a bit vain upon reflection. Anyway, at the time of discovery a few years ago I couldn't decide on just a couple titles, so I purchased a 6cd bundle from Alive Records for around $45USD. At that time...

    No Country for Young Deadheads This genre and I are pretty alien to one another: I culled a few Hank Sr. titles from my parents' vinyl, but have never purchased anything. Until now. I feel like Sarah slashed contemporary country with a straight razor then kicked it down the basement steps...

    Virginity breached is virginity lost. However, the Plangent transfer of the original Betty Board reels mastered in HD by J.Norman likely facilitate the closest thing to that 'first time' feeling for which I could have hoped after shacking up with the commonly circulated SBD copies of 5/5,7-9/77...

    Immediately conjured associations with Bad Co., which I suppose is - in part - an implicit agreement with g27's observation./k

    top twenty live albums

    My listening time breaks heavily toward live (versus studio) - probably 80:20 (%), if not more many weeks - so the elimination process becomes difficult early on, especially since I could line-out an ez 20 between the Dead, ABB & Phish alone; so I'm going to restrain myself w/ only few...

    Iconoclasm Some rather unconventional observations here recently; can't say I've heard E72 characterized as "hardcore", which implies relative inaccessibility...indeed, the tour compilation that preceded the wondrous glut of full live releases over the last 20 years - esp. the complete Spring...

    Was listening to Veneta prior to pickup of #15 and, after the switch, was surprised at the similarity of bold, loose, colourful play between such (conventionally) disparate eras.... ABB Final Run: Bookend shows on back order, but simply amazed at the unremittant level of musicianship...
