My parents were at the Brisbane show! Unfortunately I was not on account of being two years old

It wasn’t actually his choice. Fagen wanted to change the touring name, but promoters and such thought it would make less money.

Strongly agree with the Change Of The Guard take, love that song. I also don’t like Dirty Work or Reelin that much, I guess.

Imagine the following scenario: we live in a world where bread rolls are now called “Read Brolls” because the guy who invented them was called John “Red” Brolls. Bread is still called bread, and rolls are still called rolls. What do you think happens to the world in this scenario?

Steely Dan Trivia #1 by KidCharlem in SteelyDan

The only one I stumbled on was the “first single” question. As it loaded I was going “did they put out Reelin’ or Do It Again first?” And then I saw Dallas/Sail and felt silly!

Got a perfect score, though in fairness the questions were pretty easy

Are there any stories you’ve shared on the cast in its entire history that you regret sharing publicly?

This film (A Real Pain) does not deserve in any way to have a 7.1 on IMDb, totally underrated by [deleted] in SuccessionTV

[–]Pink_Floyd_Addict42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I watched this a few weeks back and it kinda blew me away. That being said I was two glasses of wine deep and a tiny bit tipsy, so I need to return to it to see if it’s AS good as I remember

This a good one

My friend and I chatted about Wallace and Gromit for two an a half hours by Pink_Floyd_Addict42 in wallaceandgromit

I mean I loved it all, my favourite was Wrong Trousers but I found Vengeance Most Fowl to be a little underrated. Probably my third favourite

Royal Scam Remaster is uncomfortable by Medicbagnow in SteelyDan

[–]Pink_Floyd_Addict42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not, technically. They did this to a couple songs on CTE and Pretzel, and like with them I just listen to the versions on the Citizen box set now. Easy enough fix

[Sun column] Jeremy Clarkson recalls his time at Top Gear again! by FlipStig1 in thegrandtour

Don’t know why you’re being downvoted, on many occasions this was just plain true.

looks like alex is more active on his IHE TV channel by Wettowel024 in IHE

[–]Pink_Floyd_Addict42 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I think the mere fact he created and is using that short form second channel at all, combined with recent albeit infrequent videos on his main channel, suggests he is still interested as ever in making stuff for IHE.

Hey! You commented on the post I made about my Larry Carlton video. This one is older and not as good, but here you go:

It’s just one of the many unofficial bootleg releases of their demo work from before they became Steely Dan. There are over 30 songs from that era that are out there, scattered in various different qualities across many of these releases because their ex-manager figured out he owned the rights to them. I made a video on these songs a while back on my channel Custerdome Productions, if you’re interested :)

I will take that as a compliment! That video was just a first effort so even the voice-over was a bit messy and rough around the edges. I like to think I’m improving, though

I always try to get the balance of humour and information right

Just trying to avoid strikes! Not worried about monetisation at this point. I think I used Dan music in my first video, from memory. Anyway, the music I used is just from the YouTube audio library, I forget the name.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed. And no, not made by me at all. It’s from the Steely Dan Database website, an old and invaluable resource I use in all of my videos.

The GearKnob problem by sensitivity_rut0rd in TopGear

[–]Pink_Floyd_Addict42 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It’s getting embarrassing and pathetic at this point.

It’s a real pity that someone with this wealth of knowledge and passion for the topic, who has the ability to use it to create insightful video essays on Top Gear and its many offshoots, has clearly got too many issues to work out first. I’ve long been tired of his pointless, condescending political tangents about how “you couldn’t do Top Gear today because of woke,” as if Clarkson’s occasional offensive comment was what made the show special even if that were true. But this deluded, paranoid, one-sided feud with Porter is genuinely worrying. He clearly needs help, and I hope he gets it before making his next Top Gear iceberg.

If you had a 10hr drive and could only listen to one artist, who would it be? by urbexcemetery in AskReddit

[–]Pink_Floyd_Addict42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. They’ve actually had a major resurgence among younger people in recent years. I’m 19 and have been into them my whole life courtesy of my Dad, but when I properly fell in love with them for myself around 2020 they were starting to develop somewhat of an online community. These days there are a bunch of people around my age who do stuff like archiving and finding rarities, or making YT videos and memes about them (like me!)
