Yo moose!!!
I stumbled across this show courtesy of a post from the old HOD site, and I was hooked! I have several of the clips on my iPhone, current favourite is a great version of Backstabbers -isn't Shawn just a perfect drummer for this gig? What a great band (if you manage to ignore John Oates )!
Brightened up a very windy Friday afternoon here in Leeds!

It think this video were available in Youtube with much better sound quality...
Anyone knows?

It started life as a boot, but then was later released commercially on DVD and so disappeared from YT and elsewhere.

A classic that still inspires me.

Yes - this forum has an overall negative vibe for sure - used to not be this way - times are tough though.

Wow, I really haven't felt that, I must admit.
And I haven't even posted a video of Virg lately! (JUST KIDDING!)

Anywho, I am hooked on 'Dexter', and loved 'Mad Men' and 'The Wire' to the point
where my liver was arguing that I watched something else for a while.

Today I surprised my old folks with a visit - they live out in the country, so it was a nice
break from the city for me as well. I just aced my exam in
"Mobile Communication - Business, Design and Social Context" and I now have 7,5 ECTS points to
go before I start on my Master Thesis. I am drinking ridiculously expensive Italian wine from my father's
wine cellar and life is - all things considered - good.

Yeah I'm going to agree you. This is all over one thread I feel like, which was critical, not negative. They're just opinions. On the internet. Relax everyone.

I dont know.Maybe folks are just frustrated over lack of gigs,jealousy and/or like in my case not getting a gig because of some BS despite the fact that the qualifications are there.

Who knows?I can only address my problems.

My more immediate problem is that I am coming down with a serious cold and I have four gigs in the next three days and subbing out is not a financial option.

Good luck to you all...let's all take a chill pill..

Im going for it !!Thanks!!

It just seems like there's a lot more negativity than in years past - very judgmental and condescending vibes in a lot of threads - or things are taken the wrong way because people are so on edge.

When things get bad, Gaddabout usually turns it around.

I managed to brighten my own day quite a lot by pulling the trigger on these. Picking them up tomorrow.
