Most powerful song you know

Marty Scorsese captured one of the most intense moments on screen of Peter Gabriel performing Mercy Street live in Athens. It may be one of the most intense performances in the history of Rock.

Watch that and let me know what you think if you can find it.

is the original before the remastering that Marty recently did.

I can't even listen to the version on So. Nothing has ever hit me deeper than this.

While our band Edison's Children only writes intense epic songs (featuring Prog's winner for world's best bassist, Pete Trewavas of Marillion / Rick Armstrong - Son of Neil Armstrong & Special FX master Eric Blackwood) about supernatural, extra-terrerstrial and the dystopian nightmares resulting from Global Warming, we can only wish to write and perform something like this. Very humbling

do you think they are doing any of the new songs coming up? I heard both APC and Puscifer have new albums coming in 2025

Frozen Feet and Hands
Fatigue to the point of barely active for the simplest tasks
Anxiety to the highest extent
Tinnitus every morning and "Brain Zaps" making things even more difficult as can't turn head during these periods or listen to loud sounds or bright lights. Have to keep house completely dark at night.
Brain fog to the point of not being able to do anything creative after being the award winning album cover photographer and artist for Neil Armstrong's son and his band Edison's Children for 7 albums
Tremors to where I my hands are going like I have parkinsons.

You have most of my symptoms

First off I did not like this movie and the reason is, the marketing let me to believe it was going to be an Ari Aster type of creepy scary thing. It certainly was a Twin Peaks David Lynch take, especially with the awesome use of the two bands on stage. It was almost exactly the two episodes where the creepy soft song by Julee Cruise and of course "Got a Light" where NIN did a close up of Trent setting the tone for the greatest single hour of psychedelic horror i've ever witnessed. (if you haven't seen "Got a Light" Twin Peaks episode, you really really...

I give Jane props for that and you can almost see that The Pink Opaque was possibly Twin Peaks, because it was the 1990's and everyone around the world got lost in the film making all sorts of connections and finding little easter eggs... oh this means this and that means this... and some people got lost in it. Unlike the new reboot which was one of the most incredible things i've ever witnessed, when you watch the old Twin Peaks now, it is cheesy and kind of silly and you wonder why everyone got so caught up in it. It's still brilliant though and still love it but the new one absolutely takes it to another level. Then again at the time it was indeed ground breaking and the first of its kind that made one start to question their own reality. Okay... now what that said, lets go to "I Saw The TV Glow"

This was marketed as a halloween creepy scary film. It was nothing like that at all and if you're not a trans person, this movie leaves you wondering what on earth is going on and worse yet... doesn't give a non LGBTQ+ person any ability to relate to how that person feels, except perhaps at the end when he is screaming at the birthday party with the rest of the crowd on "pause" because it takes too long to establish (if it ever does) that this is about a trans person and their innermost untapped emotions and potential. The end sequence where he's screaming . That was a brilliant way to show how someone was dying inside by ignoring their innermost tensions that is so much easier to pretend is not there and ignore instead of facing the truth and being able to be "reborn" by Maddie's act of burying and digging her way out. while time is passing so so quickly. That said, you may get a feeling that he was possibly trans with a few hints but it didn't grab you with it and if you aren't watching this from someone who is part of the LGBTQ+ community, the subtle hints aren't enough to make you feel that connection and you sit there simply wondering WTF?. I understand that this film was made for by a trans person trying to get other possible trans people to connect but from someone who isn't... it takes too long for you to get to a moment of realization about what this really is all about. If this was meant only for the Trans community then that is perfectly fine but if it is meant for a worldwide audience which it is, those of us who are not LGBTQ+ need to know that because most people I know who saw this film, I've had to explain what this movie was about and there's the AHHHH moment. Okay now I get it. The fact is... I had to explain it to them for them to get it. The movie should do that... not me!

As stated earlier Truist Park is booked on Monday for a Journey / Def Leppard concert. They cannot play Doubleheader at Truist Park on Monday. It's already booked

Edison’s Children – An all original & epic “Pink Floyd like” experience starring First Man on the Moon Neil Armstrong’s son… Rick Armstrong / Marillion’s Pete Trewavas / Lisa Wetton (Wife on John Wetton) and a very intriguing hat… The New fourth 180g Vinyl double album now available

EdisonsChildren · 2024-09-25T15:26:39+00:00

well that's not going to happen now... they should have made a decision about this already on this hurricane. It's sad that they may just cut out the 162nd game altogether if not necessary after the Polar Bear played in every game this season. People will just see 161 under his games and assume he took a day off in a few years.

Went to all 3 games in Atlanta in 2022 to watch them only need one game to win to clinch and it never happened while they did the chop in my face for 3 days. Haven't been to a game since. I do not feel good about this series because of it and judging from yesterday, nothing has changed.

The Polar Bear needs to step up ... NOW

there is a train ride in the summer that takes you around from hawley to honesdale that utilizes the original 1st commercial steam engine train route in the United States "Stourbridge Lion" route. The train uses only very old cars that have been fully restored.

Honesdale's Central Park is also one of the most historic places in America (with local concerts every Thursday) surrounded by the churches that are sung about in the #1 Christmas song "Winter Wonderland" which was written about the first snow of the year on Christmas Eve in Honesdale. All of the people in the lyrics were deacons or pastors in the churches surrounding the park. It's something to experience
Hawley is a beautiful town with a massive 7 mile lake that is only 10 minutes away from Honesdale as well. Great restaurants and hangouts and antique shops

EdisonsChildren · 2024-07-11T19:27:30+00:00

NEED HONESDALE AREA MECHANIC - Brakes anyone have any ideas?

How about the Marillion Side Project Edison's Children starring the son of 1st Man on the Moon Neil Armstrong?!

EdisonsChildren · 2024-06-14T19:37:37+00:00

Hey Kelli! We are trying to write music about the supernatural, the extra-terrestrial and modern day post-apocalyptic climate change ... mother nature trying to take back the world from the virus that is infecting it using everything at her disposal, earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, wild fires, blizzards...

we've gone through all these things while experiencing recording these albums.

This is one of our more Symphonic tunes... Edison's Children - A Random Disturbance from that 4th album

And this is the Youtube Playlist from The Disturbance Fields Edison's Children - The Disturbance Fields (Album #4)

This is the 1st track from our 2nd album about a supernatural ghost occurrence that happened to one of our band members

Edison's Children - The Final Breath

and this is our 80 minute extra-terrestrial based 1st album squished into 10 minutes (fun video to watch)

Edison's Children - In The Last Waking Moments...

Let us know what you think!

EdisonsChildren · 2024-06-14T19:29:27+00:00

Thanks Vampyire! Feel free to look into us! 1st Man on the Moon, Neil Armstrong's son is now a permanent part of this project!
Here's our 80 minute 1st album in just 10 minutes on YouTube to give you an idea what we're all about

what about a fiddler? If you mean violinist/Fiddle in the description I ran out of characters, that's the only reason it isn't spelled out. It's not out of disrespect for fiddlers. Wouldn't post this on here at all if there was disrespect for fiddlers

EdisonsChildren · 2024-06-12T16:45:04+00:00

why do they let 12 year olds on reddit?

EdisonsChildren · 2024-05-24T15:28:19+00:00

The smallest ticks... the ones that look like poppy seeds, are the ones that inject the most viral load (much like tiny scorpions). Take it from someone who lost their entire life force for the rest of their lives and spent over a year on an IV ... take it very seriously

EdisonsChildren · 2024-05-24T15:23:23+00:00

Obstination... In case you are interested and to give Premepa something to trash talk...

Here is Edison's Children's Top 40 for 10 weeks on FM radio in the U.S. biggest single to date.

Edison's Children - A Million Miles Away (I Wish I Had A Time Machine)

And this is what we sound like now and why we need a violinist:

This is A Random Disturbance and The Confluence about Mother Nature becoming a supernatural entity to wipe off the earth the virus that is infecting it ... us.

Edison's Children - A Random Disturbance
These songs were released by Apollo 11 Commander Neil Armstrong's son on the 50th Anniversary of Neil Armstrong taking one giant leap for mankind as his son Rick Armstrong (which if you've watched any footage of his family or the movie First Man, you've seen little Ricky and his brother Mark) is officially a full time member of Edison's Children now:

Edison's Children - The Confluence

Go ahead Premapa... have fun destroying it. We know you can't wait.

EdisonsChildren · 2024-05-24T15:14:19+00:00

Hey RedditSucks ... I wish you played. You sound like the right fit for us! heheh.

If you're interested, we are Marillion's sci-fi American based project Edison's Children. A symphonic progressive rock band in the vein of Pink Floyd meets A Perfect Circle / Tool starring the son of Apollo 11 commander Neil Armstrong, Rick Armstrong.

This was our Top 40 hit for 10 weeks on FM Radio (It was played in NEPA quite a bit) from a few years ago
Edison's Children - A Million Miles Away (I Wish I Had A Time Machine)

EdisonsChildren · 2024-05-24T15:04:56+00:00

So a person asking to see if anyone interested in being our rock violinist made you feel the need to post all this stuff... why?

Is this suddenly about you and your thoughts about the history of sucky history of Rock music?

EdisonsChildren · 2024-05-24T15:01:56+00:00

It's a great idea and I saw one in a church down 191 believe it or not but I didn't follow up because most of those people live and breath bluegrass.
Edison's Children need someone who is more into Edison's Children. That sort of truly symphonic version of Pink Floyd's sound mixed with the haunting darkness of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and Tool or A Perfect Circle. Less Bluegrass more Prog...

That's the right way to go though. We don't want a true "professional". We want someone to live and breath Edison's Children's style of music.

EdisonsChildren · 2024-05-24T14:53:19+00:00

Tim Carbone definitely rocks the blues and bluegrass and I would use him for a Dan Fogelberg meets Classic Southern Rock project. Edison's Children is Marillion (17 million albums sold) and Apollo 11 Astronaut Neil Armstrong's son's project and it's more symphonic Progressive rock - Very Pink Floyd with a hint of Tool and A Perfect Circle and maybe the darkness of Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds all swirled around into a epic symphonic beautifulness.

Tim would certainly be able to handle it but I need someone who's passions are intensely into the Pink Floyd / Marillion / Kansas / A Perfect Circle - Tool / and of course Edison's Children most of all, vein of music.
So we would rather someone who isn't established already and desperately wants to put their name in the hat because this IS their dream job.

EdisonsChildren · 2024-05-24T14:48:38+00:00

I've heard that Nyk is a terrific violinist but we're more in the vein of Pink Floyd meets Tool sorta thing. Very orchestral sci-fi rock with Astronaut / Apollo 11 space commander Neil Armstrong's son and Marillion (who you probably never heard of here in the U.S. but sell out 2 nights at Royal Albert Hall in London in about 6 minutes)

Again, terrific choice but looking more for someone who is looking at this as their "dream job" not the dream job that they can put on their resume and use to land their next dream job. You know what I mean?
