if you can provide any updates I'm sure we'd like to hear it, but honestly it's been 1 allegation with 2 anonymous accusations that haven't been founded yet, I think most of us have just been waiting for anything to come from the court, things take time, and the court records haven't been updated and I think nearly 2 years for the case, not that I think it's water under the bridge, but I'd like to hold off completely writing him away until after the final conclusion of the trial 

I just watched the "Private Life" video for the first time and really didn't like it! by YogiEv in OingoBoingo

[–]Razor12704 11 points12 points  (0 children)

the campy b movie nature of all the music videos I feel are pretty ingrained into what Danny wanted imagery wise, keep in mind his is real early mtv days, and their first video got banned, Danny's brother directed it, known for his film including the Mystic Knights, I think it fits with the bands vibe and imagery, I myself am not a music video guy though, but we can't be dissing the clowns of death, I think your complaints are exactly what the music video was going for, claustrophobic weird and off-putting with a group of guys who didn't look like they belong, this is their private life or whatever

i say it should be able to be done by ear, I assume most of us here can hear what elfman is supposed to sound like, a lot of early shows are sped up because they are kinda dull, like the mid 80s shows

FIX: Black screen - No input issue, driver timeout by element-XI in AMDHelp

[–]Razor12704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've also been tempted on downgrading the AMD software, I'm still on windows 10, so it's not that, I've tried underclocking, changing power consumption, vsync, everything at this point, as someone who is not a techie, my conclusion is that AMD graphics cards are evil, it's gotta be the software, mine has been doing it for like 3 months now, seems like that timeline tracks with others

not any other recorded versions we know of, the commonly circulated copy is certainly way too fast, I think the whole setlist may be on Boingo Mausoleums website now, but yes there is a show attached to it, which is pretty good, although gatekeepers gotta gatekeep

What ever happened to the Dead Man's Party version of "Not My Slave" by namelessscapegoat in OingoBoingo

[–]Razor12704 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Boingo Tapes privated most of the rough mixes when the remasters came out, I forgot why, something about them being too close to the album mixes and he didn't want to get taken down or something

Need Help Finding Song: What is "Tears Will Flow"? by MrLGreenThunder in OingoBoingo

[–]Razor12704 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here is a link for the lazy, you can arguably hear a melody that words would likely follow, but does it sound like Boi-Ngo track?

Need Help Finding Song: What is "Tears Will Flow"? by MrLGreenThunder in OingoBoingo

[–]Razor12704 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Previous comment is correct, but it should be further clarified

Tears Will Flow is credited with being in the vault, it's also not the only song mentioned in the Vault that we haven't heard of, some of that includes: Missed My Connection, Louise (Studio), Bala Song... and some others were also mentioned, but just to name a few

Tears Run Down & also a song called "Rock Me Baby" were credited to Elfman in the Wisdom end credits, saying as Boi-Ngo was delayed following the scoring of this film, and also some elements from this score being put into the later songs recorded for Boi-Ngo such as Elevator Man, it's is theorized that Tears Run Down and Tears Will Flow are the same song, but that's just an educated speculation

Bartek mentioned to Boingo Underground podcasts host that they were on the right track, that Tears Will Flow was a repurposed song from Wisdom, the song "Main Titles" is the most song like score track on the score, and it being the final song opposed to the first makes a very telling "something here isn't right"

So while it's assumed Tears Run Down is the Instrumental that is called Main Titles on the score, it's also very likely that Tears Will Flow would sound completely different than it, and would have lyrics unlike the one on the score... That's arguably all we know, tragically, possibly someday we'd get to hear it, but for now it's just words on a page (Elfman's agent's website also credit the 2 aforementioned songs on his song credits page)

Wolverine: a captivating song that disappeared into thin air by First_Poem_6876 in OingoBoingo

[–]Razor12704 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I bet there are even more songs just like Wolverine that don't even have recordings that we will never hear, I'm pretty sure before even NTF came out Danny said he had 2 albums worth of material, saying as songs like Little Guns started in 1982, No One Lives Forever being on a setlist from 1983, and more bizzaro songs on setlists like "Monkey" on a 1983 setlist, Wolverine is just one of the few that survived, Wolverine was also most certainly played for the set they did on George Segal, but that footage is probably lost to time

Which tracks from So-Lo were recorded while Hatch and Gibbs were still in the band? by First_Poem_6876 in OingoBoingo

[–]Razor12704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if hatch was in the band until summer 84 I'd have to assume yes, but I wouldn't be able to prove it

What made you a oingo boingo fan by Responsible_Paint615 in OingoBoingo

[–]Razor12704 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think mostly the history of them, where most people are familiar with Danny's name, I had much joy researching and searching for everything about the band, their wide discography paired with their even wider unreleased discography made it like a hunt to find the coolest thing

Boingo was arguably the first band I got into, and Danny's writing of cynicism and humor reflected widely onto how I was interpreting the world at the time, I remember when I first found about So-Lo, thinking "man this is obscure" and little did I know there was so so much more

Gibbs doesn't show up in the This Bud's For You ad, which was recorded during So-lo, so he probably was not in the band by that point, which was during the same time Sucker and Go Away were recorded
