A mixture of pork shoulder, hind quarters, salt , sugar, and a preservative. Recognize this, Marissa?

I haven't been able to download those E/O outtakes. I'm pissed! Not too badly, though...'cause I know that I have something very special coming when I get to hear 'em.

If anyone interested in Elliott hasn't heard "Mic City Sons" by Heatmiser, they should do so. It has some great E.S. songs w/ a really good band.

Why bother?

I second the nomination of the "second floor near Robson" place. I picked up some great stuff there, including Ian Carr's Nucleus, which I'd never seen before. There is also a bookstore that has records and cds, but it's mostly jazz and classical. If you look in the phone book, under records, cds, etc.., and one sounds like a bookstore, check it out. It's right by an international school. Sorry to be so vague. There's one crazy dude who owns a record store right around the corner, but I think he was getting out of the business. I wouldn't have recommended it if it was still open. But this guy had a nude record sale, offering a deal to people who got naked. Have fun!

I'm listening to it right now..."Mama's Got a Complex"......

I guessed Cory, too. Your post (Joe G.) came up as I was typing mine. I couldn't remember a couple of the other Crash guys' handles.

Hey Ciccio, are you Cory W., or one of the other guys? I ate dinner w/ you guys that Saturday. You funked up the Bluemonk! I hope you come back soon. Cheers, Matt

I'll tip my beer glass to you, as soon as I've eaten breakfast. Cheers, Happy B-Day!

Yeah, these M.F.s should be treated that way. The only ones that I have aren't in that great of shape (Something Else, Little Johnny C., Out to Lunch), and I resent the fact that the other owners seem to have let their kids play with them. Of course, if they were in great shape, chances are I wouldn't own 'em. They do sound amazing, though.

Buy w/ confidence. This guy takes good care of his goods!

Right after I quit smoking pot, I had very firm resolve not to return to it. Therefore, the temptation was simply not there. But it seemed like everywhere I went, people would bust out and offer me strains that I'd only heard about: Matanuscka Thunderfuck, Blueberry, Chocolate Thai, you name it. Having gotten through that, I now have fuckin' bulldog skin. It still smells good, though!

That dude's name is Soulstation 1?

I think it's fair to say that the Trip lp has the same (but not all) material as the Fresh Sound. Bob Belden has lied to me on many occasions about these recordings. Just kidding! That must have been one helluva show in Chicago!

That's really gouche. If I was a judge, shaving my balls in court, I wouldn't be caught dead using a disposable razor!

Exactly. To me, it also isn't a matter of 5000 or any of that #'s b.s.. I was just commenting on Chuck's post. I enjoy the tracks like Ceora, Willow Weep for Me, that are on the FS set. Let's face it, aren't there more Lee completists in this house than just about any other trumpet player, except maybe Miles?

I have both the BN and the FreshSound. Plus a few lps that contain this material, like the BN 2lp set w/ Lee on the front sitting under a bridge holding a flugel. Also, one called "See Autumn", which I think was someone misunderstanding the title of one of the tunes, "Ceora". So, I'm covered! Big Al, I think you probably meant Peter J. ?

So, I didn't have time to elaborate earlier about my fun with drugs over the years. Like I said, I quit herb in April of 2003 and can't imagine ever going back. Too addictive. I drink 2 or 3 times a week, but I have been known to binge drink from time to time. I've dabbled in the fungus about 6 times, but I always seem to end up with some type of injury on the stuff. I imagine I'll do it again, every 3-5 years seems to be the frequency. LSD, mostly in college, maybe 10 trips total. Mostly good ones. Ecstasy, about 5x. Always was a good time, but very bad for you, I'm told. Other things white, very rarely. Absinthe a couple of times. No big thrill, there. Health-wise, I guess I'm doing well. I'm 34, never smoked a cigarette, I play basketball and softball a couple times a week. I could eat better, and drink less PBR. I had some liver issues a few years ago when I was playing and drinking 6 nights a week. Went away when I scaled it back. I should be around for a little while!

I got 11. I was once buying groceries at Safeway and the checker was a she-male, or transvestite. I was wearing my Art Blakey's Jazz Msgrs. shirt, and he/she got very animated about how cool it was, and how much he/she dug jazz. Not all that strange, I guess. Just different!

Yup.

I find it to be a good title. I would buy damn near anything w/ Lee, as he is my personal fav. on trumpet. But 5000?

Well, I'll have to ask my bandmates if they were loud, good, etc.., 'cause right after our second set (after Poison and just before KISS), I had to bail to a softball game. Poison bit the almighty chode!!! (sp?).

Payton, the malcontent, is stayin' put. Maybe he'll bring game next year.

Lee is in the Elvin Mosiac, too, right?

I was a major pot fiend until about 14 months ago, when I quit cold-turkey. It got to the point that I had to smoke dope before doing anything. I went thru an 1/8 every 5-6 days. I've always admired those who could do it in moderation. It ain't me, babe!
