  1. Anyone read Pete Rose's response to it? Pure Pete Rose.
  2. Fidel Castro Marita Lorenz Marcos Pérez Jiménez
  3. Don't forget to click to the previous http://www.buzzfeed.com/summeranne/rhythmic-gymnast-shin-soo-ji-has-the-coolest-windup-in-baseb The full version of Shin Soo-Ji's pitch. http://youtu.be/RVeo6QMcbW4
  4. About to go out, the Spider-man/Batman theme song, which is is Boggie Stop Shuffle. How no one was sued and they're still using it for the Spider-man films.
  5. Bobo Stenson Tomasz Stańko Krzysztof Komeda
  6. Thankfully, he was able to move his head enough for it to first hit the side of the helmet, which along with moving his head in the opposite direction...greatly dissipated the force to his jaw....and still ended up with a fracture in two places in his jaw.
  7. Remember reading about this a couple years ago. Pops collection is ridiculously huge but nowhere close to 3 million. As Stereojack points out there are a lot of problems with the story. The only actual store I know that come that close is As the Record Turns in Los Angeles, or has more is Bananas Music in St. Petersburg.
  8. Dimeadozen. Including the very first Piano Jazz. No links.
  9. Dimeadozen is getting crazy. No links.
  10. I was comparing it to to Mahler's others on why it's not played much....and I am not limiting it to the UK.
  11. Missed this. Word!
  12. Anyone in the Houston area between Oct 7-9 Keiji Haino & Peter Brötzmann either solo, or together. The solo Brötzmann is free. http://namelesssound.org/events/2013_10_07_09_brotzmann_haino.html
  13. DMG's Not Two prices. http://search2.downtownmusicgallery.com/first.cgi?row_boolean_00=AND&select_field_00=Label&search_00=Not+Two+&match_00=all+of+these+words&row_boolean_01=AND&select_field_01=Title&search_01=&match_01=all+of+these+words&row_boolean_02=AND&select_field_02=Artist&search_02=&match_02=all+of+these+words&row_boolean_03=AND&select_field_03=Artist&search_03=&match_03=all+of+these+words&row_boolean_04=AND&select_field_04=Artist&search_04=&match_04=all+of+these+words&Work=0&New_Merch=1&Available=1&Special=1&Pre_Order=0&Cd_Sale=1&Used_Stock=1&fmt_CD=0&fmt_LP=0&fmt_VHS=0&fmt_Cassette=0&fmt_DVD=0&fmt_Miscellany=0&Paging=0&Search.x=31&Search.y=12#results
  14. I read that too. Jazz Loft mentioned that in a recent e-mail. Not U.S. but this is who I use for them in general no matter if in, or out of the U.S. (since they end up being cheaper) and Steve can confirm no problems with his order from them. Get the DKV boxset (which is the same price as Jazzloft) and one, or two others and you get free insured shipping. DMG has the DKV for $105, but add in shipping.... You're not going to find the Barry Guy Mad Dogs @ a cheaper price. http://www.productsfrompoland.com/servlet/the-Music--fdsh--NotTwo-Records/Categories Our shipping charges are in US dollars ($) and are the same for all customers worldwide. If your total order is: -less then $25.00 your standard shipping charge will be $3.95 ($13.95 for expedited shipping) - between $25.00 and $50.00 your standard shipping charge will be $6.95 ($13.95 for expedited shipping) - between $50.00 and $100.00 your standard shipping charge will be $9.95 ($29.95 for expedited shipping) - between $100.00 and $150.00 your standard shipping charge will be $14.95 ($39.95 for expedited shipping) - more then$150.00 your standard shipping charge will be FREE ($39.95 for expedited shipping) All shipments are insured, we use registered mail for shipment from Poland and provide on-line tracking information.
  15. Only Benny Golson, Sonny Rollins and Horace Silver are remaining from the Great Day in Harlem picture. Be well...
  16. Lot of people don't realize he started out writing westerns and several classic western films were adaptions of his short stories. As a friend pointed out on FB....his books read like screanplays, which explains why so many were adapted into films, or tv shows. Be well....
  17. Bonds wasn't drilled. He purposelessly put himself in a position to be hit....and even then....the time he was drilled on purpose....not anywhere as much in comparison to Mr. April. Walk a guy, or pitch to someone only a complete homer doesn't realize is on a major amount of PEDS and using elbow armor...both of which allowing him to do what he did....which he couldn't have done without? The pitchers are cowards, but never a bad word from you about Bonds, Armstrong, Paterno, etc...
  18. Well if you're going to use one of the most boring versions possible. Thankfully, I can't post I have gone into a coma and they can't wake me. You did your best.
  19. With Mahler's 6th. Looking at 80-82 minutes and there is the problem about what order to play the middle two movements. It doesn't get played much for a reason.
  20. Never cared for the Newport version. This one even less. I have read somewhere on here (could have been JSngry) that Duke would put people out there for that long as a sort of of punishment.
  21. The different revisions are puzzling (though a godsend to those who like squabbling about versions - you get to quibble about versions of versions). But I don't see how the size of the orchestration is a problem if you take the music on its own terms. I'd say Bruckner does a fine job balancing the passages where all is blazing, with beautifully delicate moments that can often be quite pastoral and serene. There's a lovely passage in the second movement of the Fifth where a flute picks up a theme from the first movement and just plays it achingly. And a recurring passage in the slow movement of the Eighth that sounds like Vaughan Williams! As for length, well I can see that as a problem for people who prefer shorter pieces. But people who like music that unfolds over a long period of time could do worse than persevere with Bruckner. The length is a big issue for those that have to pay for them being performed, which goes to why he's not as performed as much.
  22. I like Bruckner and agree about Haitink & Jochum. I think Buckner's problem are two-fold there are so many revisions of his works (there are 6 versions of the 3rd.)....and he couldn't make up his mind which was the definitive version. Then there is the size of the orchestration and length of several of them. Any thoughts on the Stanislaw Skrowaczewski set?
  23. Not clear if you're asking: 1. About the season? When the season started it was already over. 2. The Curse of the Goat? Hopefully in my children's lifetime. 3. $500 million non-tax payer money to renovate Wrigley. In this day and age that alone is a miracle. Detroit is in bankruptcy and they're going to spend close to a billion on a new hockey stadium. 4. You have to to figure if Ricketts is willing to spend $500 million of his and his family's money just on renovations. They're serious on breaking the Curse.
  24. We've all heard this song before, but If this is copyrighted material, posting a link to it is against forum rules. It's live recordings. They never allow anything copyrighted on dimeadozen, and if a musician asks, they remove it. My question was more about posting links to anything that is downloadable. I wouldn't wast anyone's time asking about anything copyrighted.
