  1. Just watched with a 24 hour delay the fight between Ortiz and Maidana, think Foreman-Lyle but with 140 pounders

  3. Poor tactics in the second half conducted them to their lost, a bit of a shame because they played a brilliant first half, when when you allow a talented team like Brasil room to roam this is what happens.

    Ha ha. Here's what I don't get. These so-called Andorran labels (and indeed others) issue material which is still in European copyright owned among others by EMI, Sony/BMG, Warner and Universal. This material is distributed throughout Europe and sold by respectable retailers. I'm not talking here about material out of European copyright, or about bootlegs or anything else. Is it really the case that these large companies can take no actions to defend their own copyrights? Can Universal do nothing about Lonehill's Illinois Jacquet and Johnny Hodges issues? Were Warner unable to act against Gambit's Paul Desmond issue? Do Sony/BMG have nothing to say about Lonehill's J.J. Johnson? Do none of these companies at least feel inclined to drop a line to amazon to ask them to quit stocking them? The boots and out-of-copyright issues are an unrelated matter. Here the question is in-copyright material where the owner is a large company which appears otherwise able to police its rights. The usual bluster aside, does anyone have any facts on this? guess these firms are simply lacking the knowledge to find out whether it's their material or not I don't think they are lacking the knowledge, I think they don't really give a shit and if they actually did go after them, the time and money it would take wouldn't justify the end result. I know what David is saying though, there is more chance of finding the grey and black market stuff over here than there is the legitmate releases. It's basically the sad truth to it, the interest for those recordings is too scarce for them to care, as bad as it is for the musicians who should receive royalties, the sinister truth is that these Andorran companies are probably most of the time the only medium that will release this kind of music.
  6. Happy Birthday Here are a few people who have the same birthday than yours http://www.astrotheme.com/birthdays/june-28.htm Only an actor named Steve Burton was born the same year though

  8. Read a funny story about her in the newspaper yesterday. On her last gig to Montreal as she was in her eighties, whe she bowed to salute the fans, she ended up stuck in the bowing position, they had to carry her backstage to put her straight so she could resume the gig.

  10. Another excellent gig last night saw a great Hommage to Mingus , thanks to the more Mingusian musician of Montreal Normand Guilbeault and his septet which was at times an octet with guest vocalist Karen Young For those keeping score here's the set list Tensions Passions of a woman loved Song with orange Strollin/ Nostalgia in Times Square Weird nightmare Prayer for passive resistance The second set was Don't be afraid, the clown's afraid too Celia The black saint and the sinner lady Eclipse All the things you could by now if Sigmond Freud's wife was your mother And as en encore Duke Ellington's sound of love

  14. I'm sure that in the mid-eighties if you had bet than this one one would outlive the other one, you could have made a bundle today
  15. Same game, i've just changed mine , when i look at my profile i have the new one but still have the old one when i'm on the board. Am using Explorer and Firefox and having both the same results
  16. It's the time of the year where i'm on a steady diet of at least one gig per night, so there's no way i will mention them all Among those worth mentionning, vibes player and leader Jean Vanasse played a tremendous set last night with very inspired and talented musicians. The rhythm section was composed of Normand Guilbeault and Pierre Tanguay that you may know for their Mingus hommage, plus on bass clarinet Mathieu Bélanger, sax player Richard Lavoie and a man who was on fire last night guitarist Sylvain Provost. Saw sooner this week Monk's casino ,the Alexander von Schlippenbach project. Can't say i was really impressed, way too much clowning, the arrangements were interesting but the playing level was average and they looked like guys who were doing anything to stay out of boredom, the sax player kept giggling like a teenage kid who just smoked pot while constantly talking to his bandmates, the bass player seemed to have enjoyed a little too much the local alcohol, an average night to say the least. Saw the cellist Vincent Courtois. not thrilled of the set with a vocalist, but man this guy has a great sound, would love to hear more of him in a different project
  17. Tony Dorsett Tom Landry Roger Staubach
  18. I thought about the other Joe too, so it makes two By the way can't help but think that Farah Fawcett's soul is currently saying something along of why did this motherfucker upstage me on my big day
  19. I've heard the same thing. More details please
