Fucking LOVE NOMEANSNO @Twistlock a truly formative band for me along with Victims Family and others
-
@mclaincausey @Twistlock What about the Hanson Brothers! I think at one time they toured as NOMEANSNO and then replayed the shows on the way back as the Hanson Brothers. Pretty cool.
-
Love them too! Nothing like a lil Puck Rock @deanclean ! Wish I could find that CD, I think it’s out of print.
But on YouTube. Amazing, Ramones-esque hockey music.
-
@mclaincausey Ive got that Hanson Brothers album on vinyl! the one playing tribute to the Ramones' Road to Ruin album cover.
-
Fucking LOVE NOMEANSNO …
me too, esp this collab (and btw, 'Japanese spend twice as much on pinball as defense')
-
Yes yes YES this is all great stuff @endo @deanclean @Twistlock , I have loved all of it since it came out! Well, around the time 0 + 2 = 1 released for NOMEANSNO, and some time before that for Dead Kennedys, had to discover some of the back catalog later.
I mentioned Victims Family. Really love a lot of the intricate punk like them, Minutemen, etc. Their guitarist/vocalist Ralph Spight and their bassist Larry Boothroyd just blow my mind with their effortless shredding and great songwriting and lyrics (LOVE the Wrights too, and Watt).
I mean listen to Ralph shred this song George Benson, love the pinched harmonics:
And a wild bassline by Larry here:
I also listened to a lot of Primus and Melvins when I was jamming this stuff nonstop–trios really seemed to be some of my favorites for a while.

This rabbithole @Twistlock initiated is bearing quite a bit of fruit. In addition to tons of other live stuff on YouTune checkit @deanclean and @endo :

Awesome @mclaincausey, will listen into it later today. Didn't mean to open up another rabbit hole though
-
Not a good week but these are the times we live in…. everyone's old.
When he dropped out of the Stones' forthcoming tour I assumed it was due to COVID concerns, which at his age is perfectly reasonable. I guess he was just dying.
I hope it wasn't painful for any of them. They brought a lot of joy to a lot of people.
-
I was lucky enough to see them a few years back, even though they were getting on a bit, still had more presence than a lot of younger groups I have seen, took this pic as Charlie was being introduced to the audience, nothing special in the pic until I noticed Keith and Ronnie having a quick fag break at the back - can just imagine O2 Health & Safety freaking!

Caught their last US tour stop in Denver. I am ashamed that it took so long (travel and daunting ticket prices pushed it back in my younger days), but it was a bucket list item for the wife and me and glad we ticked it off. They really killed it and I'm not just saying that because I wanted it to be true. The four of them had amazing energy for their age and Chuck Leavell and Karl Denson (filling big shoes for the late Bobby Keys–RIP) really brought the goods as they always do. I looked back at my pictures and none of them are worth sharing like the great one Steve shared.
When Tom Petty died we listened to a bunch of his songs and even knowing how prolific he was it still amazed us how many great songs he put out. I feel the same way about the Stones, Dylan, and a scant few others. Just an endless repertoire of great songs, including deep cut rabbit holes that might not get the hype or airplay of the iconic hits but are very rewarding listens.

@mclaincausey losing Tom Petty was really probably the worst I've experienced, personally. I'm a humongous fan, and am really grateful I got to see him on the last tour. Did you happen to be at that show at the coliseum in Jackson in '95? That and Prince a year or so later at the coliseum are the two best shows I've ever seen.

I was at Prince and his aftershow at the Dock! That was '97 so you're close. I didn't catch Tom Petty unfortunately–like ever. Which will be a regret I carry with me forever. I tried to see Mudcrutch when they played a tiny venue here in Denver a few years ago, but unfortunately it was impossible to get tickets... Closest I ever got, and albeit not the Heartbreakers, that would have been even more special to me.I lived in Minneapolis for a while and went to Paisley Park twice, and a small jazz club once to see intimate Prince shows. Our table was 10 feet from him at the jazz club. They took everyone's phones but I got great bootlegs of it (which I cannot find now). He did two shows a night for three nights. We caught the second show first night. The progression was from jazz/fusion to pop over these rehearsals, so we saw a pretty great fusion show with a little R&B. The highlight for me other than his singing (he brought his PA and his voice resonated the whole room) was their cover of Billy Cobham's Stratus. At Paisley Park, one of the concerts was a pajama party. We all dressed in PJs and his neighbors served us pancakes (like the Chapelle skit). We were right in front of him at the stage rail--best seats in the house. This was his Third Eye Girl lineup. Intense.
We will never know exactly how prolific he was, though I am glad some releases are coming out of the vault.
