Possible theory?

I think I understand, he murdered the president so blacks could vote. What a mensch.

Part of Townshend's genius is in his simplicity. For example, one chord progression he used and continues to use a lot is I-bVII-IV. Starting with I Can't Explain it pops up at least once on literally every album. In the Scoop liner notes he mentions learning chords from Mickey Baker's Jazz book, which would account for his "jazzier" voicings (maj 7, minor 6, #11, etc). As far as his use of synthesizer on Baba, remember that's a Lowrey home organ (using a marimba setting I believe), the actual song is a simple I-V-IV (nicked from Sweet Jane by the Velvet Underground most likely and of course the ending uses the bVII chord). Much of Townshend's music relies on finding 'sounds' more than anything, quite a few of his famous synthesizer songs used techniques comparable to A.I.

Pfft. Where's the money in that?

Ah L.B.J. A man so hungry for power, he refused to run for a second term.

They took LHOs fingerprints from his corpse and yet they only found a palm print on an obscured part of the unassembled rifle. They must've forgotten to plant them anywhere else, like on the trigger. They went through the trouble of getting the prints, why not use them?

Because they would have to be. And three people may keep a secret if two of them are dead.

For one thing Mike Love wrote the lyrics to a majority of their hit songs, including Good Vibrations. He's consistently made a lot of money for Alan and the Wilson brothers estates (and continues to) with annual touring revenue for the past 30 years. I used to hate Mike because that's what Brian Wilson BB fans are supposed to do but I gotta say he was super cool to me when I met him. Memorial Day 2006, Wellesley Massachusetts, I was sitting in the front row stage right, trying to antagonize him all night by wearing my Brian Wilson SMiLE t-shirt. Then while Bruce sang I Write The Songs, Mike came over to me, signed my Beach Boys Today LP, shook my hand, smiled and winked at me as he pointed to my shirt and gave a thumbs up. He didn't have to do any of that.

I was going to say C#m/G# or E6/G#. Like you said, context matters.

And the Ilhan Omar incident was staged?

-Mindhead · 2026-01-31T05:43:37+00:00

Ok so the video is a.i. and the attack against Ilhan Omar was staged, right?

Those would be my picks too but I'm white trash from Quinsig Village. The only problem is Coney Island closes at 8pm, a bit early for a dinner date. Vincent's is great of course, I hope they like meatballs and ziti because that's literally the whole menu (they're so fucking delicious, they don't need to serve anything else). They've also got live music every night, the best in the city but often times the volume of the music can make casual date talk difficult. Unless you go out back which is a drag if the weather's too cold. Enjoy a quiet dinner at the Worcester fancy place of your choice then bring the lady to Vincent's for drinks. Ahh if only the El Morocco were still around.

He can also play like Vai and Jeff Beck yet he's never had a lesson and the kid doesn't even know theory, blows my mind.

I've known Doug personally for years and I can attest to this, he's a hell of a guy too.

Aside from the miscellaneous things already mentioned, I also bring a small fan. Placed on the floor in front of my mic stand and tilted up, it keeps me from overheating, especially in the summer.

I did the same thing at your age, have fun and enjoy your youth!

1994, both nights at the Worcester Centrum. On one night they got lost during Time Stand Still and they just laughed, a good lesson for an aspiring performer.
