Just sit'n here working on some new logos and its been too quiet. Just can't seem to focus.
Just popped in the latest CD from Tracy Chapman, Our Bright Future hoping it'll get the imagination functioning again.

My employee going into a rant about the guys at a place we do contact work for, taking our paint and adding hardener, painting the graphics, then pouring the leftover paint - WITH HARDENER - back in the gallon can. They just bought themselves a useless 3/4 gallon of paint.

iTunes is on shuffle but right now "Heaven is an Orgasm" by Lords of Acid is playing. Oops make that Living Dead Girl by Rob Zombie.
I've also just put the Christmas music collection back into rotation with plenty of treats by Bob Rivers, Kevin Bloody Wilson, and of course some more normal stuff like Tran-Siberian Orchestra and Joe Satriani.

Years ago I bought a New Year's Eve concert in Vienna CD, conducted by Richard someone-or-other, and it had all Strauss pieces on it which were fun & easy to listen to. It was about a 1988 concert, I think.
I made a duplicate & 'listened that to death'...
but last night Andre Rieu came to Brisbane & gave one of his concerts & we all went down to watch/listen. He was good- entertaining, clever, and his support people were terrific too.
So, today, I went to look for the original New Year's Eve concert CD again to bring back some memories.
In 1983, I went to Vienna, (Austria) and walked over to Schonbrunn Palace & had a long look at the carriage collection there- and Rieu's set we saw last night was a roughly life-sized replica of the facade of Schonbrunn Palace- incredible logistics in designing it, setting it up, & then shifting it around the world- I have a lot of admiration for the crew & groupies who make it all possible.
The lighting, clever videoing, the huge screens, the ice skating, the music, the drummer playing Bolero...and of course the Blue Danube, as well as many of the jazzy polkas- it was great fun to see it all live!
The stories behind the pieces were also good- it makes the piece all the more interesting.

Posted by Stephen Deveau (Member # 1305) on :
Ben Nice tunes!
You have to put some Ozziiiiieeeeee in there
Posted by Dan Beach (Member # 9850) on :
Ben
Bob Dylan's "Hurricane"
Metallica's "Pulling Teeth"
Posted by Ben Diaz (Member # 7319) on :
The only Ozzy songs I have sadly, are Perry Mason and Bark at the Moon, neither of which I would consider epic. However Dan's mention of Metallica made me think of One which should probably be in there. I'm also gonna add Freebird, Hotel Califonia and had played around with adding Liar by Rollins Band, but I'm not sure if that is epic enough. I'm not familiar with Huricane or Pulling Teeth and to be honest I was never a big Bob Dylan fan. Dad likes him alot I just never got into him.
Posted by Dan Beach (Member # 9850) on :
Pulling Teeth is an awesome bass solo off their first album.
It is amazing. Check it out if you can.
Posted by Charles Borges de Oliveir (Member # 3770) on :
As I am typing this I am listing to Dream Theater, soon to be followed by Ozzy's Diary of a Madman, then some Kamelot. Posted by Stephen Deveau (Member # 1305) on :

Posted by Mr Curtis Dalton (Member # 7547) on :
Ben, you MUST check out "Pulling Teeth" on Metallica's "Kill Em All" album... a great Bass solo.
Speaking of great Bass, I spent the last day in a friends garage building a Thomas Train table set for my son for x-mas.. while working away like Santa's helper, I blasted an old Minutemen album "Double Nickles on a Dime". Great music!
Posted by Anne McDonald (Member # 6842) on :
Ben, I would add Pepper by The Butthole Surfers and Pure Morning by Placebo to that list Great songs you have on there already. Oh and just for fun Fire, Water, Burn by The Bloodhound Gang
Posted by Jon Butterworth (Member # 227) on :
MJQ ... Modern Jazz Quartet.
LPs before that were Oscar Peterson Trio, Charlie Byrd, Michael Franks, Dave Brubeck ... list goes back!
I've been listening to a digitally recording all my old vinyl LPs recently. Damn! Haven't played them in years since the old record player chucked a sickie!
Doing a window splash for one my customers advertising a plug-in USB2 turntable with software for digitising vinyl records. Looked good deal for $80 considering most my old Jazz stuff is almost impossible to track down on CD and then they would cost probably $20 each!
So I did some "horse trading"
About 50 LPs to go!!!! Posted by Mark Matyjakowski (Member # 294) on :
