That's been my guess - that their database simply doesn't update itself quickly enough to reflect the current "low" price, after someone else has purchased the $3.30 disc. I agree it's frustrating!

I strongly recommend "For Django" a quartet date with second guitar, bass/drums. The live date "Joy Spring" also from 1964, is quite good too.

As much as I think it's a joke, I'd be more worried about Aric's Bird Flu.

I vote for "Planet X" for the name of the next planet to be elected Planet-hood. That name rocks. Hell, any name with "X" in it rocks.

As discussed in other redundant threads, there are already a number of redundant threads about this topic.

Maybe it's a fancy gold lamè pouch?

I've got a couple of other Praxis discs (Sacrifist & Zurich) with Buckethead, and dig 'em both.

I wasn't happy about the Cowboys signing TO to start with, and with all this stuff going on....hmmm. The thing that's tough for Cowboys fans (IMO) is that we're used to Jason Witten breaking his jaw, getting it wired up, and playing (not to mention practicing) that way. We're used to Keith Davis practicing and playing with a bullet in his leg currently. Marcus Spears just recently had surgery, and is already at 90%, and eager to get on the field. Should be a starter by the time the regular season rolls around. T.O. suddenly discovered this "injury" during training camp, that apparently happened without him informing anyone after the play. He just stopped practicing. MRI's came back negative, and he's the only one that says he's hurt. Personally, I think he's not really hurt, he just hasn't played football in so long, his body hadn't gotten used to it. And instead of working through it, he's chosen to claim an injury that's really not an injury. Problem is, he's hurting the Cowboys by not getting reps, not getting synergy with Bledsoe. A result of that may be that he doesn't perform as well as he has in the past, ever. Another Cowboys note - Parcells said Drew Henson is no longer "with" the team. So another former baseball player/QB (like Quincy Carter & Chad Hutchinson) experiment has apparently come and gone. I don't think the guy got a fair shake with the Cowboys, but hopefully he'll do better wherever he ends up.

New YLT album due out on 12 September, titled "I am not afraid of you and I will beat your ass" Appear to be soundclips on their website, matador records, and YLT's myspace page... BF - That last one is a fun listen, but it's really off the cuff type stuff, so probably won't get that many spins, but it is still enjoyable.

Does that mean 9 for the price of 4?

Problem is, once they're drunk, they get really cocky, thinking they're bulletproof and can kick anyone's butt...

Dammit! Can't make it. If you can't make this show (I can't either...grrrr) - as mentioned earlier in this thread, the Tyner Septet will also be performing in Austin on 18 November, which is a Saturday. That show is at U.T. Hogg Memorial Auditorium, a part of the UT Performing Arts Center program.

I was gonna say "cool cover" but I guess i won't bother now! Still looks like someone created during a 10 minute session with a pretty simple computer program, to me...

That reminds me of something that happened to me years ago when I worked at B&N. I was the children's department manager, and my boss (the store manager) got on my case because of some vaguely dirty joke I had told in the privacy of the break room (among staff only). Everybody laughed, but he called me into his office and told me that he was going to change my assignment to the regular book floor (which amounted to a demotion) because he didn't think I could be trusted around children! I was shocked. Do people really have this idea that people who work around children don't (or shouldn't) have an adult sense of humor? It would be ok for me to joke about Batman getting it on with Robin if I worked with adults, but if I work with kids that must mean I'm pervert? Weird! And the more I think about it, I wouldn't want to hear you making off-color jokes about adult subjects if you were the teacher of my child. It would bother me. What you do in the privacy of your own life is your choice, but I would be uncomfortable with you around my child too, if I know you acted and joked like that around your colleagues and potentially your students. Regardless of your intent. A teacher sexually assaulted an 8 year old girl in one of the schools here, a couple of years ago. Stuff happens. People want to trust their teachers, but there are perverts out there in all professions. Don't give parents a reason to distrust you, or even be suspicious.

I guess I missed the part where I saw you making a joke, or making fun of anyone. Actually, I never did see you make any comment that appeared to be making fun of either the Batman/Robin dynamic (which I think most of us figured out was "odd" when we were like 13 yrs old), or NAMBLA itself. Not knowing you, I have no way of knowing what your motive was for posting these cartoons without any comment - you left out the context.

I'm sure I'll pick this up, but that cover is awful. Like his most recent release with the Big Band.

Porcupine Tree's concert DVD "Arriving Somewhere" is now available for pre-order from their website, for anyone interested.

Photo Gallery (with exclusive ambient music by RB+SW) edit - I could quibble a bit with the track selection on Disc 1 (only four songs that are pre-In Absentia), but otherwise this looks like it could be really good!

Perhaps instead of continuing to post images you could actually explain why you're posting these?

Sorry, but I don't even get the point of posting this.

I think Steven Bernstein is interesting - he's got a couple of recordings under his own name on Tzadik, the Diaspora series, that are excellent. He's also in Sex Mob, which have released a number of very good (and fun) recordings. I need to check out his new Millennial Territory Orchestra thing.

That's a plus, not a drawback! I think 98% of any hostilities/hard feelings that happen between members here on this board result from the discussions in the political threads.

Welcome to the Machine

This is probably one of the European sets that aren't directly from Mosaic, and aren't numbered. Still a good deal though! Yes, it's one of the Universal (import) Mosaics. The source really doesn't bother me and it would be hard to pass up on that price. Just from various conversations I've read on various jazz boards, I'm not the only one to pick up the Tal Farlow because it was available at such a low price. If this set pans out to be as good as the first impression I got from listening to samples then this is going to be quite the bargain. It IS quite a bargain - I got it (the Euro-version) for about that price as well. You're going to love it! And yes Ron, I agree, it IS still a Mosaic...
