Half! How are ya? I dream of living under the Arch sometimes.

Bucky, I warned you not to shave the beard. Now he just wants to run his fingers over your smooth, clean-shaven face before nuzzling you behind the ears. I thought that over at HTML and now he is stalking you here it is obvious that he wants you. If he mentions Brokeback Mountain, run. Run far.

Westy, didn't realise you 'hung out' here. happy birthday, belatedly, my good fellow!

I'm currently obsessed with Tim O'Brien's books. I've read If I Die In a Combat Zone and Going After Cacciato in the last month and a half, and am now about 40 pages into The Things They Carried . Others sure to follow. Wonderful writing, and while O'Brien has a somewhat sparse, unadorned style (a ...

Gather is a great song and Slaughter Rule is a nice listen. It all works together rather well.

PB> not! (again) love Sherpals Does that red phone box smell of pee? Sorry! :oops: Oi! Irishman! No dissing the phone box! :) That red phone box is from Local Hero and Manshanks = a Green Mountain Boy, a finely manshanked fellow. Just ask Halfie. GMB - sorry I didn't see you in Chicago. I'd've brou...

Fuck that Wilco shit. I tuned in for 2 mins to see what the score was and they were playing Rush.

I saw it in a store today and the packaging looked fabulous, astonishing. 90 bucks though - forget it.

For an established, travelling musician, St. Louis is fantastic. It's located right in the middle of America, and is, basically, the intersection where all the Interstates take you north, south, east, or west. What that means, is I get to come home more than a lot of musicians I know. I'm always pa...

I though the Hawk was funny as hell at the Last Waltz. Joni gets my vote as second worst - her hippy warbling has me reaching for FF, sadly.

I think the The Band's 1st Boxset is called Across The Great Divide.

I've had that old box set for years now and still love it - not sure if I can justify this one. Yeah, I have that old one too and most of the re-issues with bonus tracks so I'll give the new one a miss. I saw the old one on some 'buy 1 cd a month from us' site today for like $17.97 which seemed VER...

Looks like a lot of the 'rare' stuff is already encompassed in the earlier Band boxset and also out-takes from the recent remasters -seems like there is little actually 'new' about this set so I will gove it a pass for now, I think.

Indeed, Bucky, indeed.

So, not too many old-timers then? Shame.
