ghost of miles Posted August 25, 2009 Report Posted August 25, 2009 For those who wander the board twixt the hours of midnight and 4-6 a.m., wherever you may be... I'm working late tonight on an article about a long-running local concert series. A great time to listen to jazz, though, if you happen to be up! Quote
Michael Weiss Posted August 25, 2009 Report Posted August 25, 2009 I may be up but i'm trying to wind down. Heard and played enough music for one night. Good luck with your article. Quote
ghost of miles Posted August 25, 2009 Author Report Posted August 25, 2009 I saw your name pop up on the "Active Users" list right after I posted this and thought, Well that's ironic. If only I had an 8-track tape of LIVE IN SEATTLE and, uh, a few other things... Quote
thedwork Posted August 25, 2009 Report Posted August 25, 2009 bring on the night! i just submitted my review of today's release of three Radiohead reissues: Kid A, Amnesiac, and Hail To The Thief. all come in 2cd collector's editions and also special collector's editions that include an additional dvd w/ promo videos and/or live performances. i had to cram to get it in before/on release date and i really hope they put it up today. it was a total of 9 discs i had to go over and i didn't get them until about a week ago and i've worked at my regular full-time job 6 of the last seven days. been a rough week. gotta get up tomorrow morning for my motorcycle license roadtest. i should be in bed! goodnight night owls! p.s. - check blurt-online if you're interested in my review of the Radiohead...

ghost of miles Posted August 25, 2009 Author Report Posted August 25, 2009 Thanks for the heads-up on those, thedwork. Have to be up in 4 hours myself--just finished the article and am off to bed. Hopefully it will make sense in the morning... Quote
papsrus Posted August 25, 2009 Report Posted August 25, 2009 It's 2:25 p.m. now, but I'm usually up late most nights. ... will check back later. and yeah, late-night listening has a quality all it's own. Quote
papsrus Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 12:40. Just got off work. Listening to some (more) Bud Powell. Quote
AndrewHill Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 Up late watching Naked Gun 2 1/2-The Smell of Fear Hilarious! Quote
Aggie87 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 That's usually my FaceBook time. FB?! FB is only for you damn unwetted lotus leafs! Be touched by action or get off the pot! ... Quote
Dan Gould Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 Up late watching Naked Gun 2 1/2-The Smell of Fear Hilarious! It would take a helluva better movie than that to keep me awake. I think Billy Crystal said that depression is great because you catch up on your sleep. That's certainly true - in bed by about 11:30 pm, up around 9 AM. Its the rest of the day that sucks. Quote
Big Al Posted August 26, 2009 Report Posted August 26, 2009 That's usually my FaceBook time. FB?! FB is only for you damn unwetted lotus leafs! Be touched by action or get off the pot! ... How very Zen of you! Quote
GA Russell Posted August 27, 2009 Report Posted August 27, 2009 Listening to Clifford Anderson - Decade. I usually like to slow the music down at this hour, but not tonight. Quote
AndrewHill Posted August 27, 2009 Report Posted August 27, 2009 Still up. Playing poker on line now Quote
sidewinder Posted August 27, 2009 Report Posted August 27, 2009 Still up. Playing poker on line now Whilst some of us are having breakfast Quote
AndrewHill Posted August 27, 2009 Report Posted August 27, 2009 Still up. Playing poker on line now Whilst some of us are having breakfast Ha! I'll be having breakfast in about an hour at this rate! Quote
Matthew Posted August 30, 2009 Report Posted August 30, 2009 My problem is not being able to get back to sleep, which stinks. I usually have to read for a hour or fiddle around on the computer to get tired again. Quote
papsrus Posted August 30, 2009 Report Posted August 30, 2009 My problem is finding the 'round-midnight' thread, round midnight. Was up quite late last night and darned if I could find it. Had all sorts of great ideas, but now they're gone. Quote
thedwork Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 (edited) damn Fox News thread! gets me too riled up to go to bed. must put that shit out of mind and go to sleep. gotta work in the morning... by the way, got my review copy of the upcoming debut release of Kristina Train on Blue Note. the jazz purists will be sure to cry "Shame On You Blue Note" for putting out another 'non-jazz' artist. and that's fine. i had my pre-conceived ideas about what to expect for other reasons as well (producer, marketing, etc etc etc...). but after my 1st listen this morning my main impression is that this woman can sing her ass off and is a real deal natural born singer. the arrangements may have issues (overblown at times, completely unnecessary at others, sometimes fine) and not all the tunes are that strong, but girl's got game. i'll be giving it a bunch more spins for the next week or so... prediction: Train's Spilt Milk will be up for a few Grammy's and all the regular boring noise will be made on the jazz boards: ie - "Norah Jones isn't a jazz singer, blah blah blah..." now that crap makes me sleepy...

AllenLowe Posted August 31, 2009 Report Posted August 31, 2009 I get up at 5:30 am - don't know if that counts, but now that it's dark in the morning, it sure feels like it's still the night before - Quote
Jazzmoose Posted September 2, 2009 Report Posted September 2, 2009 An interesting thread to find at 11:57 at night... Quote
AndrewHill Posted September 2, 2009 Report Posted September 2, 2009 Well up late again, but this time doing some research. Quote
papsrus Posted September 3, 2009 Report Posted September 3, 2009 Just got home from work, walked the dog, settled in and put on Mingus' Blues and Roots. Sounds mighty fine for that slightly disheveled state I'm often in after a shift at the old salt mine. Quote
AndrewHill Posted September 3, 2009 Report Posted September 3, 2009 Nothing wrong with unwinding to some Mingus Quote
