Oh please! I was fuckin\' around about the keys as everyone knows how I feel about the instrument.

BUT if you want to start on about Tim owning keys I have to say you must be drunk!
Tim is decent @ best playing keyboards in the band. He may play well enough to add color and nuance to some songs but please I know 14 year old kids that can do that!

He is multi-talented I give you that but come on. Owning?

are you kidding me?  i heard the whole album and it was all cliche jamband spew to me.  there might have been 1 jam on the entire album that was good in my books.  the rest was textbook raq weak ass jamming, w/ some lame lyrics thrown in.  michetti barely gets any chance to shine on the album is 100% Stoops led.  keys may be fun, but they ain\'t gonna tear your face off.

Keys ain\'t gonna tear your face off?
 Well maybe not in RAQ but if you think that you have obviously never seen a really good keyboard player.

I suggest you go see Chick Corea live.

Take a listen to some Reconstruction and you will hear a young Merl Saunders giving Jerry and your mind a run for their $$$$.

Keys CAN tear your face off!

Back to the thread though, I think the tracks I have heard are great you don\'t big deal.

I have only seen the Daniels St. dvd in which Tim most def. did not own the keys.

I have heard the night before in Philly(no ownage) and the last Mill St. in August(no ownage).

Tim got an advanced copy of Ton These at Wormtown......It\'s basically the Todd Stoops album.  Personally i didn\'t hate it....it was kind of sophmoric, but still very listenable and danceable....

I would be willing to pass out shows after the flyer......

I\'m sure that Leith will be attending at least one of these shows this tour and will be able to make a judgement based on being there and if he still doesn\'t like it, will everyone lay off the surfer.

Yes I have already promised my full support to Tim for the shows in L.A. and S.D.
It is still 2 of my favorite musicians in the whole world and Ron who is phenomenal w/ them so it\'s not like I hate the music it just does not move me as it used to.

As I wrote Tim maybe seeing them in person will recapture some of the feeling I had with the quartet.

Either way thanx for the support Spacey.
