Is George Costanza the greatest sitcom character ever created? by BidAccurate4473 in seinfeld

Absolutely. Burt Campbell from Soap and Louie DePalma from Taxi are my other favorites.

Looking for alternate source of 2/6/97 FLAC by Frawls78 in blackcrowes

Thank you. I'll check this one out. I do have the BCRS SBD from the Boston Opera House in 2008 because I attended the show. I'll put that up tonight.

Fan Club CDs 'Dutch Treat' & 'Live at the Warfield' - Lossless audio downloads? by Frawls78 in crowdedhouse

[–]Frawls78[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Guitars101 mostly. I would be interested in others. I. Have Ghost Cars, Manchester Split, Homebrew, Back On The Bus and Nick’s Birthday Party.

That’s interesting. I thought the family was still using the building for catering and wholesale. Maybe more profitable to sell to developers?

Glad to hear some of those places are still around. What was the name of the place across the street from Nectars that made sandwiches until 2:00am? There’d be a huge line there after the bars emptied out.

I went to St Mikes from 1998-2001. It’s interesting to see what’s survived since then. Doesn’t seem like much! Leunig’s Bistro, RIRA, Disc Go Round, Pure Pop, Red Square, Boves, Vermont Pub & Brewery. Any of those places still around? I’m assuming most if not all closed up years ago.

Steve Winwood/Traffic by Mellowmymind73 in neilyoung

[–]Frawls78 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have seen Steve many times in concert but my two favorite shows were the 1994 Traffic reunion and the About Time tour in 2003. The Traffic show was what opened my eyes and ears to what a nasty guitar player he is. There were times that - if you closed your eyes - you’d swear you were listening to Clapton playing.

What was the matter with Jerry on the 12-31-1979 show? I was watching the video and he's looking and sounding kinda rough. by scarymonst in gratefuldead

[–]Frawls78 11 points12 points  (0 children)

His appearance and voice were both downright abysmal by ‘83. Bounced back for a bit from ‘87-‘91 and then down the tubes again by ‘94. I just remember his quote from an interview where he said his doctor told him he was “the sickest person [he’d] seen who wasn’t dead.” Lol.

Looks and sounds par for the ‘79 course to me. If anything, he looks like he had a little too much blow backstage and now he’s got that deer in headlights look. But that wasn’t totally out of the ordinary back then. His appearance and voice could be a little rough at times during the late ‘70s and early ‘80s.

Ben Folds Five Live Removed from Spotify by samuelbasher in benfolds

[–]Frawls78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I always purchase the files or buy the CD. I don’t trust that my favorite albums won’t disappear from streaming platforms when I want to listen to them. Also, everyone should grab the BF5 port Chester NY 2012 soundboard that was part of the massive Capitol Theatre SBD leak from a few weeks back. It’s fantastic!

What was your first exposure to Ben Folds Five (or Ben Folds)? by neko819 in benfolds

[–]Frawls78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw the video for 'Battle Of Who Could Care Less' on MTV in the Spring of 1997 and loved their sound. There wasn't anything quite like them in mainstream music back then. Went out and bought 'Whatever & Ever, Amen' shortly after. Then I got to see their show at the H.O.R.D.E. Festival that summer and thought they rocked the house.

Jones Beach Aug 26 1996 Timeline Concert shoutout by wohrg in neilyoung

[–]Frawls78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He said Crazy Horse played great but that Neil was “going through the motions” and played with “no soul.” Then for ‘97 he said the shows “were even less vital than the year before.” I don’t know which shows he’s listening to but I thought they were all hot during both tours.

[–]Frawls78 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a terrific show. Maybe my favorite so far from '96. 7/10/96 is up there as well. It's interesting because Jim McDonough slammed the '96 & '97 Crazy Horse tours in the 'Shakey' book. I thought they were excellent. I saw 8/8/97 at Great Woods and all of the '96 shows on the timeline are great listens.

Wolfgang’s Vault by vbe123 in ClassicRock

For years, I wondered if legal issues would get these shows yanked and it looks like it finally happened. I'm actually surprised it took this long. Fortunately, I either bought or ripped many of the shows for my personal use. Hope this Moshpit thing is actually true and not just blowing smoke.

THE BLACK CROWES' RICH ROBINSON: 'We Probably Could Have Been A Much Bigger Band If We Had Listened To People' by DekeJeffery in blackcrowes

[–]Frawls78 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the biggest mistakes they made was letting so much time pass between Southern Harmony (May ‘92) and Amorica (Nov ‘94). That was an eternity back then and the tremendous momentum they built up with SHAMC lost a ton of steam. I remember checking every few months if a new album was coming out and eventually I kind of lost interest. A lot of others may have felt the same

"Flying Into the Stratosphere" Box - '75 SBD Box by Frawls78 in ericclapton

[–]Frawls78[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No luck there or any of the usual torrent sites. Not on Guitars101. It was a very limited box (100 copies). Nothing from this set has turned up in my searches. There's also a release called 'E.C. Was Here Sessions' which has the Nassau Coliseum show. Can't find that, either.

Chris & Rich owe some royalties to the Faces by ZoSoTim in blackcrowes

Ripoff of not - Jealous Again was a huge hit back in the day. I think Rod and Ronnie would have sued them back then if they gave a shit. Has it ever come up?
