danz 0 Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 YukisP DT is a GOD! This guy totally blows me out of the water...master of tension and release...they moved through standard blues, sufi and indian music, jazz, funk, and reggae seamlessly...it was incredible.. only complaint was that it was a really short show...1 set + 1 song encore and it wasnt even 2 hrs!! I blame it on Club Quattro..they are tight-asses there... But checking him out again on sunday at the blues carnival!! Cant wait! danz Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 DT is amazing - maybe he will come back to Japan again, or I can see him whenever I get around to getting home. Glad to hear things havent changed with them Who else is playing on Sunday besides DTB? Any other jam bands? Link to post Share on other sites
danz 0 Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 Otis Redding is the other main act...I think there are 1 or 2 japanese blues bands playing as well... danz Link to post Share on other sites
slow 0 Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 hi danz, The String Cheese Incident will play at Bonnaroo Festival on 11th of June. This event looks very nice. But you will be still travelling at this time and not home yet. So you can't go, can you? Link to post Share on other sites

Just out of interest, how do you find these groups in the first place? I'm all open to new music (I want to find more stuff actually), but can't spend hours aimlessly sampling stuff.

Just out of interest, how do you find these groups in the first place? I'm all open to new music (I want to find more stuff actually), but can't spend hours aimlessly sampling stuff. A couple of the bands (Modest Mouse, Deathcab) are from Seattle and I have been following them for some time. The Postal Service and The New Amsterdams have band members from other bands I like (Deathcab and The Get Up Kids, respectively) so I wanted to check them out. Mad Villain I read about and then downloaded. The Other stuff was recommended to me by friends (Mr.Sparkle included). I have checked out bands rec'd by people on here (Manda, NoFakie, snowboard_freak), surfed similar artists/influences on allmusic.com, and just taken chances downloading bands I have heard of. I also occasionally find bands by seeing them randomly live. That doesn't happen too often but I am usually quite partial to bands I discover that way. Anyone that thinks they would like a band that mixes Seattle Emo sounds with 80s New Wave Synths should definitely check out The Postal Service. Their album is truly amazing.

Ocean11 0 Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 slimeypete, you'd do well to check out enderzero's recommendations. He has an eclectic taste, and recommends everything passionately, even straying far beyond the line of breathless hyperbole. Some of his (and manda's) recs are now permanent and beloved features of my playlists. The Postal Service got deleted pretty damn quick though. Link to post Share on other sites
