All Activity

Oh, that's too bad. I know you're a big fan, Aggg! My first impression of the lineup is actually a little bit disappointing. So many of the acts are returning regulars - not that there's anything wrong with them - but I always hope to see great music that I've never heard or seen before. Most of the acts in the top section of the lineup are returnees who have recently played at BE. It's like the "Best of Big Ears". Zorn is frequently interesting and dynamic, but this is the third time in 4 years that there's been a mini-festival of his work. Again, I haven't begun to research the acts and I'm confident that there will be many GREAT shows. Not interested in the headliner shows (Byrne, Plant, Anderson, Metheny, etc), which will probably require an additional paid ticket anyway. BTW, my friends and I stay at the Embassy Suites, which is probably sold out by now. An added perk to that hotel is that you run into lots of musicians who stay there. Can't WAIT!

No, my bad. Angel was still with EMI, and BN was still under Liberty or UA, either way, not yet EMI.

Have you ever been French?

Temptation is greatly nullified by the amount of walking that would be required to do it right. Right now...maybe PT helps, we'll see. That, and I just spent all the saved money on something practical and more needed. But I would go see David Byrne, maybe. How old is he now? Maybe not, then. Are they streaming this thing now? That would work.

Same corporate parents at the time?

Definitely reminiscent. The same artist maybe?

@medjuck, Last year, I stayed in the Cumberland House Knoxville. It's a few blocks from the main drag, Gay Street, but easily walkable.

Life-affirming artistry.

Thanks guys.

Good to know, I'll reconsider, thx.

Original LP

Sibelius' Second Symphony, as heard in this set:

Me too! I have gotten a few autograph requests via email over the years for the far better known Ken Dryden. My standard reply is, "I'm not the goalie, I'm the hockey puck!"

My copy must be at least thirty years old.

Original LP

I drive, so I'm willing to stay further out. The Baymont on I-75 is a good value.

Recently I've stayed at the Marriott Knoxville Downtown, but I booked a couple of months ago. It currently has only a few rooms left at a pretty exorbitant price.

Well that's too bad. I feel that the Studios box is the best thing they released in a long time!
