Re: Neil Peart's Red Tama Kit

If I had piles of cash lying around I'd buy that thing in a HEARTBEAT. I can't count the THOUSANDS of hours of my formative years that were spent listening to that kit. It would be the ultimate trophy for me to actually own it.

<sigh>

Re: Mingo Fishtrap

Just caught them last week here in Nashville. AMAZINGLY good band. Almost like Tower of Power meets The Neville Brothers and Professor Longhair for lunch at The Funk Brothers' house.....: ) Really greasy, funky, soulful but still tight as a gnat's ass. And the guitar player/front guy is one of the m...

Re: Peter Gabriel 'So' Classic Albums BBC

I just sat and watched the whole thing. Just brilliant. Thanks so much for posting it! I absolutely LOVE the Classic Albums series and have bought just about all of them. I'll have to get this one too. I especially loved hearing Manu talk about how he had no idea what to play on "In Your Eyes&q...

Re: Favorite guitarists....

There's a guy here in Nashville who has flown under the radar since I've known him. One of THE single most phenomenal guitarists I've ever heard. Bar none. Do yourself a favor and Google Jack Pearson. He took over in the Allman Brothers for awhile when Dickey Betts was ousted back in the late 90's. ...

RIP Tom Roady....

We lost another drumming brother last night with the untimely death of Nashville percussionist Tom Roady.

Re: Daryl's House...Pelton..

I've caught a few episodes of that show and have absolutely loved every bit of it! Very cool arrangements, great players, cool guests and stellar production....what else do you need? I took a look at "Did It In A Minute" and noticed something odd about Shawn....what's up with the big work ...

Re: Horrible stage collapse at the Indiana State Fair.

Wow. We heard about this last night immediately after our show in Florence, KY (right outside of Cincy) and we were watching that band of storms as well as another that we thought was gonna nail us but passed by about 5 miles south. We were concerned that the second band (the one that hit Indy) was ...

Re: carpal tunnel and trigger finger surgery

Chooch- Have you exhausted ALL of your options? Luckily, I've never had any problems with my hands but I know several guys who have---some were in your same exact position and were getting ready to go under the knife. There's a guy in Nashville who works for the Tennessee Titans named Dr. Preston Wa...
