The increase of lighting levels is a direct correlation of the increased reliance on video in live show production. Mo'cameras equal mo'lights. Forum: Tell Me
I've been listening to The Beatles' remasters after not really sitting down and listening to one of their albums for ages. I'm hearing old favorites in a new way and re-discovering some forgotten gems like "Thank You Girl", "Anytime At All", and "Old Brown Shoe". Forum: Tell Me
Soul isn't completely dead. Check out Eli "Paperboy" Reed and The True Loves and Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings. I've got a new band together playing 60's soul here in Orlando and the initial response has been great. Forum: Tell Me
I usually stay at The Comfort Inn Central Park West; 69 West 71st St. Great rates, nice neighborhood, 1 block from subway and The Dakota. Forum: Tell Me
How about "Hot Stuff" by Donna Summer? I expect they'll do a Bo Diddley cover on the next tour since he's passed on since they were out last. I'd love to hear them do "Can't Judge A Book By Lookin' At The Cover". Forum: Tell Me

I actually prefer the way keith hears the song and could do without the taylor addition... in '73 he goes into a grandiose chord riff at the end of the song (the "you got to roll me" refrain) that is very un-Stoneslike, more like something Springsteen's band would do. In fact there may be a particular Springsteen tune it reminds me of.
so my favorite is '72--w Forum: Tell Me
Well, you just kind of watch your liquid intake and "go" just before you go up to your position. If it's a very long show and there are no breaks, an empty quart Gatorade bottle works in a pinch. Forum: Tell Me
I was there too. I remember them announcing that the reason it was taking so long for the Stones' to come on was that someone had damaged a technical piece of equipment by throwing a cherry bomb and it had to be fixed. I knew that was a load of crap. Forum: Tell Me
Yeah, Wilson had the bigger hit with "Everybody...", crossing over to the pop charts. I've got to mention James Carr and Dyke and the Blazers; not as well known as some others, but every bit as good. Forum: Tell Me
