Re: David Bowie "Blackstar"
this thread ditched David Bowie in record time. Sorry about that! Neil & David are 2 of my fave artists. Obviously they are different musically but in some ways they are similar. Both have followed their muse for the most part rather than commercial considerations. I admire that a lot. I wish Bowie...

Re: David Bowie "Blackstar"
We got Here We Are in the Years in Seattle. Vampire Blues, LA & Time Fades Away all got played on the west coast swing. It was an awesome Neil tour!

Re: David Bowie "Blackstar"
I think the musicians Bowie used reenergized him much the same way Promise of the Real reenergized Neil Young. I'm curious how you think Promise of the Real "reenergized" Neil Young. The shows I saw them do together were excellent but then Neil is always excellent in a live setting. As for The Mons...

David Bowie "Blackstar"
The new Bowie is unreal good (IMHO of course!). Very different. I think the musicians Bowie used reenergized him much the same way Promise of the Real reenergized Neil Young. "Blackstar" defies classification. Will be interested to see what other people think. Favorite song at this point (subject to...

Re: NFL 2015
It's going to be mighty chilly in Minnesota. The good news is the Beast is totally back & fresh for the post season. Sunday's game is looking like a running back affair. Nice matchup with AP & the Beast. I'm getting psyched!Iowan wrote:

Re: NFL 2015
My Seahawks were certainly impressive on Sunday. They were up 30-6 by halftime & that was against the Arizona "A" team. The Hawks dismantled them. I'm liking our chances to make it 3 Super Bowls in a row. If/when we get past the Vikings, we'll have Carolina the next week. Even though we lost during ...

Re: Last Movie Watched
"The Hateful Eight" was awesome! I wasn't wild about "Django" but really liked this one. Probably depends on how you feel about Tarantino. I saw the roadshow version & the presentation was very old school & cool. Worth the effort to see in that format. Spaghetti western meets Agatha Christie. Great ...

"Amy" documentary
Rented this from Redbox this weekend. Quite a good documentary. I didn't really get into Amy Winehouse when she was current but have since. Was a little too much soap opera for me. What a talent though! Really great songs & what a voice. & of course a tragic story. Worth renting the movie for sure.

Sad to say but the era of Beast Mode may be coming to an end in Seattle. Word is Marshawn is going to need season ending surgery. He's one of my 2 favorite players on the team (the other being Earl Thomas). On the happy side, Thomas Rawls' performance was revelatory on Sunday. 209 yards rushing, not...

I saw Neil in 1982 at UCSB during the Trans tour, where he sung through a headset connected to a primitive computer. Then I won 4 floor seats to the Weld Tour in 91, right in front of the mixing board. That was all hard Crazy Horse, not anything acoustic within a mile. Last time was SB Bowl in 03 f...

Re: NFL 2015
My Seahawks are done this year. The last 2 games (I've been there) they have not looked like a playoff caliber team at all. The hunger is gone & the bloat has set in. It's like when bands get big enough to start flying in private jets on tour (Led Zep, Stones, etc). Hope they prove me wrong.

Has anyone seen a recording of the show last spring at the Moore Theater surface?

I have kept an eye out for the ta...
