4:42- 4:52 is what bothers me the most

Which would you prefer?

I feel like I've covered that, 4:42 - 4:52 works for me

I was asking if you would prefer the faux violin or the notes be played standard on a piano. If you mean that you prefer the faux violin excuse me. English isn’t my first language and I get things mixed up sometimes.

I’m not the biggest fan of Tim in the band it I’d rather hear him play the notes. At least it’s authentic.

Boyd's Twitter is giving me really strong "teenager screaming for help" vibes. He said this a few days ago:

"I have to go. Smile and stay positive, no matter what. #peaceandLoVE"

I mean, I can make a Poochie joke, but it's been pretty sad lately.

He's still pushing his new song "Lay My Head Down" which has is son rapping on it, apparently. It's getting pretty much zero traction. Don't get me wrong, the song is fucking awful, but I find it interesting that Boyd is so absolutely ignored by 99.9% of his former fan base.

Although the whole jacking off next to someone and touching them while they're sleeping doesn't help. First it was a "pill mixup" and then it was "The way you looked while you were sleeping, I couldn’t control myself". But if that truly plays a factor in all that, Louie CK got a Grammy the other day, so the world is fucking backward, I don't know.

All good, I like both ways of doing it but one or the other I'm going regular piano because it's one of my favorite instruments. I'd take piano over most instruments in any either or situation. The fact that he is going back through their catalogue and finding specific lines from their past to compliment the songs really is cool I think.

Buddy playing synth/effects on LIOG in Deer Creek this year might be my single most worst moment at a show I've ever been to.

And I've seen Road.

and Williedigger.

And plastic girl.

I still stand by the LIOG comment. The most frustrating part is that the piano solo before an after the synth was SO GOOD. Fit in perfectly.

Pig was actually the song I had in mind when I said Buddy's faux violin lines sound good.

[Jollymonkey]

I support Buddy playing Boyds parts with the synth.

The tape(s) had cuts in the recordings according to the Almanac.

the Boyd "Lay My Head Down" thing has me laughing so fucking hard

I'll have to check this one if I get a chance tonight if I remember to. To be continued.

The Winston Salem show from 4/2 has a great recording, and Spotlight and Blue Water. Are you thinking of that one by any chance?

It was a September 93 show with Any Noise, Blue Water, Nancies and Spotlight. And i'm pretty sure its the one with Spotlight ending the show.

[btpeters]

Looks like the reported cut is on Typical. That'll be easy to check.

I'll make a point to remind you when I get home today in this very thread.

How does this song compare to his True Reflections album? I only know two of the 11 songs, one being the title track that everyone knows, and the other being a cover.

Okay. I listened Typical. This...sounds...complete? And it tracks at about 9:29, not 10:15 like Almanac lists. The full track with Davespeak after it ais a bout 12:30 so I dunno where the 10:15 is coming from.

Just listened to LT37 Jimi for the first time and the "I can neither confirm or deny" Dave Speak/ Scat is ridiculously fantastic.

Well... we all know the casual fans enjoy sledgebummer, but I commented on Jeff's Instagram page with N2 setlist and it's getting quite the reaction. Take a look if you guys want to see how all the glowing remarks about it... sad.

What's with the highlighted songs? I see them on virtually every setlist but have never figured out what their deal is.

Non standard 6 string guitar songs.

Is this for lighting / video crew?

It's sad that a lot of people enjoy a cover of a great song by their favorite band?

I watched 17,000 people scream every lyric to that song last night. Can you help explain to me why that's sad?

[bowa36]

You're not allowed to enjoy things! Stop!

[YankeesDMB41]

There are certain songs in their catalogue that bring the house down every-time they play them. Most of those songs are great songs. Two Step for example. Crowd was going absolutely bonkers by the end of it N1. At this point, Bayou, Can't Stop, and Sledgehammer are on that list too. Yes, I wasn't exploding with excitement when those three songs started last night, but by the end, I would be stupid to think they should stop playing them. The only way they will go away is if the band gets tired of them.

I don’t get the bayou hate. The jam is intense and groovy.

I am with you. If we consider it as a medium-level track, it is pretty intense, and it is Buddy's chance to make his own show. I always have fun watching it.
