Guilty Pleasures

[skalnbyc]

I haven\'t written them off completely yet.  Just shackman is on the scrap pile for now.  Perhaps the other Album you mentioned will actually have a groove.  

Who wants Shackman?  Maybe you all know that it sucks because nobody has been eager to claim it yet.

Shackman definitely does nothing to showcase the talent of those 3 gentlemen.

i dig shackman.not as much as "its a jungle in here".thats the shizzyshizznit!

[skalnbyc]

Do you already have Shackman?  If not, it\'s your\'s.  I will have to check out "It\'s a jungle..." next time I am in the hood (most likely 2 weeks from now).

I am not going to take a gamble with an MMW album.  I am saving my pennies for Real Radio, Zones, upcoming PB shows, Staven eggplant parmesan, and a possible move to CA in the coming months.

You buy and I will listen.

[freddiewaht]

ok,if you buy it ill burn you real radio,zone one,and anything else you need,including all other copyrighted material!

Just to add some more fuel to the fire, I don\'t like MMW either!! Very nearly put them in my contribution to this thread.

Have downloaded a couple of shows and wasn\'t impressed at all - so unimpressed tha I didn\'t even bother to burn them as trading material. Got nothing against jazzy improvisation without rigid structures - hell, I love miles\' fusion period and also stuff from the classic Canterbury era eg Soft Machine and Matching Mole; for many years, too, my favourite musician was Rick Wakeman, a man not known for giving the guitar a lead role, but mmw don\'t do it for me at all. Great musicians, but, yes, I will resist the temptation not to use the word, monotonous.

Still, to each their own.

joc,could you please talk disgustingly dirty like that 1 more time please?

Sorry Freddie, that is a rare occurance. I try to keep it clean, at least, PG-13, on here.

Boombox, I can totally understand how someone could not like them; at least you appreciate their TALENT as musicians.

Hey, hey!  Come November 22, this guy will be only 1 year away from being able to order a beer at a place not owned by Cliffy.

MMW..Toads place the beginning of December..cant wait. Al, you should plan your eggplant dinner accordingly. See em to believe em. they are not a band i would trek too far to hear or even on consecutive nights, but a trio that can do some interesting things live.

I guess I will just bring Shackman with me to the next show I attend in a couple weeks.  Since everyone knows that Shackman sucks, no on here wants it.  I will have to wait till everyone gets drunk at a Breakfast show before I can convince anyone one to take it.

I agree with the guy who said Shostakovich rocks and Mozart SUCKS.
In terms of Jam bands I like the now defunct OMINOUS SEAPODS! If you don\'t have Matinee Idols by the Ominous Seapods, you gotta get it.

Band that I should like but don\'t: "The Dead" in their current incarnation, and esp. Ratdog.  I like the original Grateful Dead, but the last "Dead" show I saw kinda sucked.  They need to go quit.  As for Ratdog, they are a joke.  Just a worse than average dead cover band is all they are - I can see shit like that every monday and wednesday night at bars around here. But Jerry always rocked and still does.

I think probably the case is just that most of the people on here already have it.

Origen, you\'re right, Ratdog does suck. *YAWN*

Ominous Seapods?? That\'s a band I\'ve not heard of in a while - always thought Superman Curse should have been a hit.
