12.30.2010 - MSG (Graham Lucas)
i need to do some yoga.
with or without phish
I spent 8 years in the Boy Scouts of America (say what you will, I don’t really give a fuck), earned my Eagle. Never once shat in a tent, or a bag.
Ever heard of a spade, or a shovel?
Fuck
lol Chef
the thing is i’m not on some campaign to prove people do yoga and listen to Phish (but they are coming out of the woodwork like crazy)
i drop comments about my personal life and spirituality on here, gotta expect some crap
butter, I think that if you drop comments about yourself on the Internet in general, in a public forum similar to the BB, you have to expect some crap, it’s not an isolated thing (obviously)
this place is usually and for the most part more open-minded and accepting of varied opinions, but it’s never going to be completely even-tempered discourse
but, for the most part, it works
i’m all good
trying to not take things personally doesn’t always come naturally for me
oh shit at 14:30 minutes in i just realized this is the 1 hr jim
I may be in the minority, but I enjoyed “the 1 hr jim”
Hope you enjoy at least some of the movements
Wish I lived in PDX so I could take Manatee’s class. Good people.
The way Hopkins pushes Jerry is what makes his stint in JGB some of my favorite music ever. When they were on (which happened VERY sporadically) it was so freaking good. Transcendent. I love Keith and the stuff with Merl and Melvin, but Hopkins seems to continually bait and challenge, which brings out some truly majestic playing in the big man. Tutt and Kahn (while no slouches) must have had a blast just sitting back in the cut and watching those two square off. Freaking love it.
yes on Jer and Nicky Hopkins just love it (thats the one i mailed to you Miner)
and yes on @Manatee’s class, you had a few wise posts mixed in there when i was to heated to notice
26 minutes in, been good…i think this is where it gets tinker tonky
Phish Yogi’s unite
or get in a fight 😉
namaste
32 minutes in Alien encounter mode
butter, perfect it’s not, but it’s an interesting journey, and interesting for the fact that they tackled something like that in an “ordinary” show, rather than, say, the fourth set of a weekend festival or something
min 35-42 have been pretty uneventful
band basically stops, minus 1 loop, going to super quite ambient space at 42:30
i like whats coming out of this space its like a type 3
that hour jim actually went by pretty fast
Not so bad, yeah?
yea i dug it, it had some boring meandering sections, but fun hour
=worth a listen, and not a throw-away
1 hr Jim is good Phish, there are some very interesting sections, just not really any straight heat in there
i can see why with a 1 hour jam you might want some heat or a big pay off
Now, this Cypress Sand>Quad is some heat
halfway thru
some exploratory space in that Jim, for sure
good night
peace
I’m hoping to bring phish yoga around the country as a weekend workshop
So keep me in mind – getting marketing materials together and will let you know where and when to look. Talk to your studios 🙂
Dang, I definitely waited too long before making Portishead a part of my life. Listening to “Third” for the first time, pretty cool stuff.
