He always played in Mercyland, which I always called the best band you've never heard of, until I heard Rocket From The Tombs. Anyway, I came across this at the All Music Guide: . Anyone hear the album? There's a comparison to Robyn in it. - -Ken ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2004 11:16:20 -0700 From: Vendren Subject: Re: Today's Tom Sawyer He Gets High On You > Palle, re Jazz Butchery: > > I just have to mention, since the song came up, that that song has about > the > best rock drumming I've ever heard. > > Sounds like you need to listen to more Rush. Actually, I live in Canada, so I am in no danger of not hearing Rush. I know my share of Rush fans, always out to convert me, but with as much success as Jahovas Witnesses. They knock on my door, a copy of "Moving Pictures" under their arms and pamphlets written by Ayn Rand, immaculately dressed, but with long pony tails down their backs. "Have you ever thought of letting Getty Lee into your life?" they say. Dare I say it? Dare I? I think Neil Peart is a pretty damn mediocre drummer. Too busy, no finesse, not funky at all, no swing. Some technically difficult stuff, but difficult does not always equal good. And don't get me started on his lyrics! Yeesh!

The copy is full of errors, but today doesn't happen to be April 1st, does it? Gee. Check out the photo: http://tinypic.com/4nm7c Caption: New York (September 9) Rocker/studmuffin/nebbish David Lee Roth said today that he's finally found his true love, NY violinist Debi Bonet. Bonet said she doesn't mind the bad wig, silver fillings, and David's new clerical civil service job. "At least he's finally got a decent health plan", said the 35 year old Bonet. Roth said he's having trouble getting used to the 9 to 5 world, and he hopes to take an advancement test to senior clerk in the near future. "It's a big change to go from $12 million a year to $27,500 a year, but a guy's gotta do what he's gotta do for love", said Roth.

His lyrics, kind of bother me here and there, but otherwise, Neil is cool. Vince (rock n roll drummer) Almost forgot, listen to "Signals". Just the right touch on every song. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 Sep 2004 02:17:35 -0400 From: Ken Weingold Subject: Re: Deni gets a date Wow, weird. So maybe a future collaboration between Diamond Dave and Robyn? That would be even weirder. I was in a coffee shop in the East Village I think last month and saw David in there. I never knew how short is was. - -Ken ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 Sep 2004 10:16:00 -0500 From: "Michael Wells" Subject: Re: schuba's on ticketmaster woj, on RH in Chicago > ticketmaster has added a link for the schuba's show, which goes on sale > tomorrow morning at 10am. It's on sale now, but heads up: for the privilege of using TicketMaster, your $22.50 ticket now costs $33.55. Ye gods. Playing at Schuba's there's an implied threat he'll sell out, so I bit the big one and did it online...Mike Schuba does not have a big place. What do you think, Dolph - couple hundred, with standees? I wonder who the opener is. There's a different act playing there at 10pm that night, so I don't see this being an overlong gig as it is.
