August 15, 201014 yr Frightened Rabbit has potential, and I like that they do not hide their Scottishness. Pretty good lyrics, although the refrain in this song is little overdone. Frightened Rabbit is a favorite of mine. Their second album, Midnight Organ Fight, is easily one of the best records I've bought in the last 3 years. Their third is pretty great too.
September 5, 201014 yr There's a local ska band in town, and one of their main influences is The Specials. They usually perform a few covers in their sets. Never knew I could have so much fun at a concert before I met those guys. The Specials - monkey man
September 5, 201014 yr ^I approve Pre-gaming before work? Hah! I know what you mean though. Music sounds best in the morning. Preferably after I've revved up on Monster or coffee.
September 24, 201014 yr Railroad Earth. ...and I'm flying up to Boston in October to see them on a double bill with Donna the Buffalo.
October 10, 201014 yr this month marks the 40th anniversary of Janis Joplin's death. I remember a classmate in high school--Gwen, who's African-American--remarking that Joplin was the only white singer she liked; something about how "whites" mostly "sing through their noses." LOL http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/

I remember a classmate in high school--Gwen, who's African-American--remarking that Joplin was the only white singer she liked; something about how "whites" mostly "sing through their noses." LOL Nice! Very few singers give me chills quite like she does In the same vein, I'd be remiss to not bring up that this weekend marked what would have been John Lennon's 70th birthday. VH1 did a documentary on the last couple years of his life, focusing on his re-emergence into making music after walking away from it for 5 years, basically to be a stay at home dad.
October 13, 201014 yr Going through my iTunes list. These are some the ones I've been listening to the most, lately. D'yer Mak'er (Pronounced Jamaica you dumb@sses; it's old English :roll: :-D ) YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. Eminem - Cinderella Man YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. Pink Floyd - Hey You Ice Cube gets political in his cd that just came out. Hood Robbin' YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. John Mayer - Assasin Jay-Z D.O.A (Death OF Auto-Tune)
October 15, 201014 yr Jerry Reed. "Eastbound and Down" and "She got the goldmine (I got the shaft)" not really my favorite right now, just what's playing on my ipod.
October 18, 201014 yr I really like The Doors. I'm listening to Five Against One. I don't see it on Youtube but it's on my iTunes.
October 19, 201014 yr I really like The Doors. I'm listening to Five Against One. I don't see it on Youtube but it's on my iTunes. I could never get into the Doors too much. They were a little too hedonistic. Then again I had a friend in high school who thought he was channeling Jim Morrison. He also thought he was the reincarnation of Edgar Allan Poe. http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/
October 19, 201014 yr I really like The Doors. I'm listening to Five Against One. I don't see it on Youtube but it's on my iTunes. I could never get into the Doors too much. They were a little too hedonistic. I didn't know there was any other kind of music.
October 26, 201014 yr I loved this group from the 60’s from Chicago (I think they were named after the Buckingham Fountain there, as an Americanized response to the British invasion at the time). They now tour as one of those dreaded “nostalgia acts” baby boomers seem to flock to, but they were really big during my jr. high days…(I doubt than anyone under 50 has ever heard of them at this point!) Kind Of A Drag- The Buckinghams- Original 45 MONO Mix (HD) The Buckinghams - Don't You Care The Buckinghams Susan http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/
October 28, 201014 yr I like The Zombies. You ever listen to The Zombies? You're right about younger people. I don't know much about anything before '70s rock and roll. I was born corrupted.
October 28, 201014 yr I like The Zombies. You ever listen to The Zombies? You're right about younger people. I don't know much about anything before '70s rock and roll. I was born corrupted. I loved the Zombies!...I also liked the Hollies, the Dave Clark Five, Spanky & Our Gang and the Association...(OMG, I am so old) THE DAVE CLARK FIVE - BECAUSE (1964) (EXCELLENT SOUND) Spanky and Our Gang I'd Like to Get to Know You The Association - Cherish http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/
November 6, 201014 yr Music like this restores my faith in its future. Reanimation theme included without too much synth...you get it.
November 6, 201014 yr I've been junking out mostly on these two lately. One is old but great, always somewhere in my playlist . The other is a new favorite. Meat Puppets: Jenny Lewis, such a great voice:
November 6, 201014 yr Neil Diamond's cool! I like a lot of his stuff. "I am, I said To no one there And no one heard at all Not even the chair I am, I cried I am, said I and I am lost and I can't even say why Leaving me lonely still. I like the Descartes and Plato reference. Great song but depressing as hell lol
November 6, 201014 yr ^I didn't think anyone under 56 (or so... :roll:) listened to Neil Diamond! anyway... Everybody's Boppin' - Lambert, Hendricks & Ross http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/
November 6, 201014 yr ^I didn't think anyone under 56 (or so... :roll:) listened to Neil Diamond! anyway... Everybody's Boppin' - Lambert, Hendricks & Ross Did you roll your eyes at me? :whip: I'm an odd bird, but yeah, I listen to Neil Diamond. I appreciate all kinds of music. A few of my friends - the same age as me - listen to some of his songs too. Good music is around forever.

November 6, 201014 yr You wouldn't believe what's on my itunes. Since my dad is on the road all the time for work, he called and asked me to get a bunch of old music for him on mp3 that he's lost over the years (he's stuck in the early '70s) - since I have a mac and don't get viruses and he's not computer savvy. I said, "What do you want? He goes, "A bunch of The Doors, Grand Funk Railroad, ...umm...there's this really rare album by Bon Jovi called "One Wild Night it has such and such songs on it" ... "Billy Idol's first Cd, "Rebel Yell", Oh...and there's this one rare live album, you'd probably have a really hard time finding it, but it's called "The Song Remains The Same - it's Led Zeppelin". Also, Pink Floyd's "Meddle".... I said hold on..........yeah....I have all of that already on my itunes. Swing by tomorrow. lol. I ended up burning the entire discographies for most of those artists though, since I had it anyway.
November 6, 201014 yr ^ha ha...that's not "old music." This is old music: http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/
November 6, 201014 yr Found an old cassette, "The Association Greatest Hits". At least my car still has a tape player!
November 17, 201014 yr That song reminds me of my quarter life crisis. Lyrics are genius but he never talked about how he's going to get himself out of that dark place. I think he inspired me to work on my auto-biography though. It's going to be titled: "An air mattress and a Dream."
November 29, 201014 yr My loftmates are in a band, and they just released a new EP. Not a huge fan of the video, but it is their newest one.
November 29, 201014 yr lately i've been listening to The band, Imortal technique, the weakerthans, elliot smith and the new kayne west. so that is my favorite right now
November 30, 201014 yr One of my wife's best friends has serious thing for Neil Diamond. She's 32 and has a collection of concert DVDs too. Vulpster, I'll have to check that out, no youtube at work. My wife is a fan and I have liked what i have heard so far.
November 30, 201014 yr Whoolawd, that new El Debarge & Faith Evans song "Lay With You" is on heavy rotation with me! "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
December 3, 201014 yr U92 just played Donny Hathaway's "This Christmas!" Whooothankthelordjesushimselfyes! "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
December 3, 201014 yr U92 just played Donny Hathaway's "This Christmas!" Whooothankthelordjesushimselfyes! Better known as the "Black Christmas anthem"! I love that song. Right up until Xmas. My mother played that song to death over the thanksgiving holiday.
December 3, 201014 yr Whoolawd, that new El Debarge & Faith Evans song "Lay With You" is on heavy rotation with me! Aiight now. Left me find out you gettin' some! It's kind of growning on me.
December 4, 201014 yr ATB Pres. FLANDERS - Behind (EDX Radio Mix) The main hook for this song is so addictive. I wish we could get more music like this on American radio...
December 10, 201014 yr not that anybody should actually have a "favorite" version of Jingle Bell Rock, but I love the Chubby Checker/Bobby Rydell duet! BOBBY RYDELL & CHUBBY CHECKER - Jingle Bell Rock http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/
December 10, 201014 yr today it is the limpwrists, screeching weasel, blatz and Killa Cam (purple haze)
