Dave1291 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Know you had a good time George. Here I sit in Duckburg trying to figure out this festival. I think I'll survive it. One guest appearance Thursday evening to hear the guys play after one brat and an order of fries. That's enough for me. Might have to venture down to get a cream puff from Schmidt's Sausage House in Columbus. Don't like their brats but the cream puffs are killer. I kinda wonder who's show up this year and when they tell me they're coming in. Friends usually stop by to make sure I'm still alive. hahaha Too old to rape and pillage! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Posted this earlier in youtube spinning so yea, I got the itch.

Dave1291 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Yea these guys right here! I should dig around in crates more often! Not a mark anywhere. Just lil pieces of white sleeve paper. What a fantastic album from 1973. Keep an eye open!!! We're talkin a ride from start to finish! Captain Beyond is an American rock supergroup formed in Los Angeles in 1971.[3][4] Consisting of former Deep Purple singer Rod Evans, former Johnny Winter drummer Bobby Caldwell, former Iron Butterfly guitarist Larry Reinhardt and former Iron Butterfly bassist Lee Dorman, the band had an eclectic style bridging elements of hard rock, progressive rock and jazz fusion with space rock.[1] They released three albums between 1972 and 1977.

Put this one on and totally chill with your Heniken @MicroMara Beautiful polyphonic vocal structures , is full of surprises from folk to prog . I like very much . No I can not drink alcohol at the moment for health reasons, I drink anyway very rarely, if then times a good red wine.

KROCK Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Here's some vinyl news.. https://edm.com/.amp/gear-tech/on-demand-vinyl-elasticstage https://www.digitalmusicnews.com/2022/08/15/elasticstage-seed-round/ 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Great article @KROCK! This could be what I heard about at least 20 years ago. Maybe 30, and answers a lot of questions I wondered about. Funny it's rolling out in London but that adds to what I heard. Prior to a Stones show a few started talking business w/Jagger and someone mentioned a 401k for his retirement. He was laffing at the question. He said there were a million songs in his bank account. He also mentioned a vinyl revolution and that vinyl wouldn't be used for records in the future. Everyone laffed but he said what's so funny. It's gonna happen just watch he said. I immediately thought cd's. As someone who buys tons of vinyl I thought the new process was what he was talking about but now I'm REALLY wondering just what he was talking about. Strange, but it's Mick and London. Toss Mcartney into the mix? Anyone wanna buy a couple tons of vinyl??? 😂 😂 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Another thing just came to me in a vision. lol The timing of the press release??? Amid all the talk about the way some are handling their businesses? Is it real or is it Memorex? Perfect timing for a new and better way to re-invent the industry? Since we hear in the mid-range for the most part is it gonna work? Will we HEAR a difference or is it poppycock? Crazy but is it??? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinyl on demand? Every album is 'first generation'? I suspect somewhere in the production line, it will be 'digital'. Ouch😱 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1291 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Slipped up to the festival last night to catch the show and it was well worth it. Nice to watch a group of guys you've known forever flip the switch and kill about 1500 people in one of the beer gardens. Today's updates I heard about. Some guy walked out of a bar, saw some woman with a leashed dog so walked up and bit the dog, which ran somewhere. Down the street a bit one guy called out three others for a smash down. lol That guy nailed another dude who went after him w/two cops chasing them both down an alley. Yes, the Festival has started. 3 days and 200k ppl. It's a hoot. I'm opened up and have been playing for the hood since noon. Neighbor behind me dropped lunch off and said it sounded great. Said all 3 of them liked the album selection. Hahahaha 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1291 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Great job! Another converted to prog? Shame on you! 😂 It's always funny when people ask me what to buy. My first question is always, "Got any money and how much you going to spend?" Then I watch their reactions as I drag them deeper down into the rabbit hole. It's ALWAYS Klipsch though. Funny watching their jaws drop. lol 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
