Now, now...I can take you back there...
Todd is more than adequate. He can no longer provide the tempo needed. For whatever reason, health or substance...he just sort of...can't do it anymore.
I do hear a LOT of Todd in Duane's style though.

I guess that didn't come out right...I love me some Todd but IMO Duane hits a parc-ton harder and it is his "energy" or power or youth that is acting as a driving force. I think Todd is much more a refined drummer
I have 200+ subscribed threads I haven't been paying attention to lately...vtv is at the bottom of the heap right now...
It was pretty ishtty it does happen sometimes though...
Still, SOME couch tour is better than none...

Eggcelent smithers! I love it! Beary nice! Mota does awesome work!
Grover, I'm horribly afraid you might have seen one of these in your day...
Kind of has a Davey Jones look a like thing going on...

Undeniably, the finest WP concert (run)I have attended...the other 2 in the run fist fight for the same title...anyone in NOLA that weekend will have a knock down drag out with you about these surpassing ANY other shows they attended. This run routinely beats up Red Rocks, Palo Salero, Telluride, Oak Mtn etc...sitting down
And a fine example of Todd's prowess and energy...
Around 14:50 when they transition into Blackout, check out the crowd's FEVERED reaction to an otherwise blase tune...we'd been bashing the overplay of BO for months...magical...JoJo IS the man. Then around 18:50 they decide to kick it into HIGH gear. I don't care what they're doing today. They can not match the energy of that run.
Beejesus around the 35 minute mark, they close up JB amusing his Washburn...he CAN play that thing!
The Hatfield that follows at around 44 and change is unmatched...
At around 59 and change, you can see that stream of consciousness has taken over...then Parson's happens at 1 hour. Period.
1:04 and change, you can clearly see that JB owns this. You can't always hear him in the mix which defers everyone to the lead guitar. Big mistake. JB directs the entire show via that Washburn...
1:08. BEST LGAM (last one prior was 1993). Hands down. We went NUTS. The energy was insane. Perfect song for the venue and the behind the scene events occurring...just shear craziness.
2nd set OPENS...Red HOT Mama>Sharon...are you kidding me. Kill yourselves, go home. Lot's of melt. Karl Denson on Sax. And it just gets BETTER!
At 1:16:30, they are full Stream of Consciousness again...JoJo is dancing, Karl is dancing...the crowd is forcing the energy back at the band demanding more...JB provides...
1:19 Mikey begins to transition the time to Sharon...NO ONE knows or even has an idea...wait for it, wait for it!
At 1:20:24 JB is fully rocking the RHM...then at 1:21:11 JoJo starts to vamp...JB walks over to Andy Cleaves and Karl and tells them that Sharon is the next song...at 1:21:45 Andy and Karl start the RHM outtro...then at 1:22:16, BOOM...Sharon drops. Panic ensues I know that there were many a man crush started on JB that night....
Around 1:27 or so, mah brotha Rocky and I looked at each other and said, well, "I guess we're done here. We got all we came to see..." Muahahahaha. Good luck with that boys...it's JoJo's turn.
I don't care what you think about people throwing sh...stuff on stage, or whatever. JoJo built BWM for that exact crowd reaction. I will always love it for what it is. And this one starts off just so, matter of fact. It's a social commentary song, one of the few they do....at 1:32:56....crowd shows it's undying love...place goes apeisht...1:34 and change...Mikey takes it over.
1:35:30...JB runs for cover and JoJo sheilds with his hands...all I can say is Mikey is MOSTLY missed...@ 1:35:40 JoJo raises a monitor cover, admitting defeat, yet accepting the Bic collection
again, I don't care what you think of it...the band encouraged this behavior..."so we can burn this city down" (lot's of bad stuff was happening that weekend...)
I'll be back for more commentary after I sleep...

got this playing in the background
Can't say thank you enough for this little nugget
I don't really want to compare Todd to Charlie Watts but he is rock solid on time...like Watts
HOWEVER...unlike Watts, Todd can and does add flair and fills...still not a "crazy beast" ala Terry Bozzio or Dennis Chambers but ROCK solid and right there

Absolutely! sometimes it's hard to explain to people how something: a smell, sound or place can evoke all manner of emotions and distant memories.Anywhere in Scotland would work for me. I could collect border collies and let them herd sheep all day.
Yes, seeing my McColl ancestors names written made them real. Sad really that I could never know them. Made do with a clan tartan scarf
Same goes for my Mothers Father - she was born while he was in France WW1. He was killed in May 1918 when she was 3 months old, and had never seen her.
Thanks to the wonders of technology, I now have a high res. picture of his gravestone in the cemetery at Valenciennes - again sad that I couldn't show my Mum that because she died in '85.
History is quite fascinating.
Heck yes! I was quite at home there ...raked up school day French that even surprised me, let alone my husband - as long as I tried, the French were happy and always willing to help.Paris and I did not get along well at all. I am an American and well...the French don't like us. Hell, do they like anybody?
The barman at our hotel was called Didier: a young man working through summer on vacation from university. He'd asked us to move along the bar so that two of his friends could sit down when they finished work at another hotel. Gave us free drinks all evening and then offered to give us a tour of Paris ..at 3am! His little old Fiat sped through the streets and he showed us all around Paris and then took us to a café on the Champs Elysees ...seemed all the late night workers of Paris gathered there fro hot chocolate and croissants before heading home to sleep! Such a great night.
He spoke 7 languages and was studying banking. We were back in Paris the following summer and he was working at the hotel again - he and his fiancée took us out to dinner before we left. Ships that pass in the night yet are not forgotten.
I think the secret with the French is to show some love for their culture (easy for me) and at least try to speak some French
As for being American ..I've had friends in the US for years both colleagues and friends and always get on tremendously well with them
I suspect that what a lot of European people don't get - British included, is that American people are more direct - not rude, far from it, but do say it how it is.
British people have that reticence when it comes to speaking plainly, and can often be too polite and never get a point across.
Also perhaps a lot of them are just useless at adapting to others ways - always a big mistake I've found.
We haven't been there, but eldest son has - also liked it a lot! Lisbon is great too ..not very big but really lovely in the old town, and the Gulbenkian museum is a wonder!
Madrid is another wonderful city.
No, sadly I can't. My one intention was to live near the sea again (I like moving water, not still) but we found this house, and it's quite big, has a very good north facing room for my studio with French windows into the garden ..was supposed to be the dining room, but the kitchen is big enough for a large dining table anyway.
Meant to move up to Oban 10 years ago, but could never see the right house for sale, along with the fact their health service is worse than ours when it comes to elderly care ..getting older, need to consider such things. The nearest big hospital is 3 hours away by road or rail too. One gets sick, the other is either alone or has plenty of travelling to do!
It was bad!
I've always said we were a good balance ..he with his feet firmly planted in the ground, me with mine a foot above it! Sort of kept each other grounded equally.It sounds like your hubby and my Linda are perfect for each other. She has no spontaneity in her at all...none Now me on the other hand...everything is up for grabs.
Aw! We met when I was just 16, married when I was 17.5. Had our first son a year later. Career stuff came later ..and what I was really meant to do didn't start to re-emerge until my mid-thirties.
London/Carnaby Street etc. was a terrific place back then - saw a documentary on Carnaby Street last year ..even showed Jimmi Hendrix buying his famous jacket at a shop there!
There was a TV series here: Take Three Girls - all about three girls living in a flat in Chelsea (Kings Road) ..this was the theme used for the series:
This is the original version by the same folk group: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9gCN9-Jnfg
