So..this has absolutely nothing to do with Maine. Forgive me if this is an inappropriate place to ask. Just felt the need. I got SOJA's new CD strength to survive when it came out a couple days ago. They have been my favorite band for at least 6 years. Kinda a raw conscious reggae sound. NOT ANY MORE! Total change, which is very disappointing. First listen through, after I smoked a fatty I wanted to snap it in half. They sold out and went to the Pop genre. so the question is what are you guys listening to, and are you dealing with a musical travesty like this?**Delete this mod if this is not right place to post-Budwich

The last CD i bought was Gillian Welch's The Harrow & The Harvest. The first that that comes up on my iTunes shuffle is Son Volt's "Pushed Too Far" from American Central Dust.

I remember when the Dead went disco with the Shakedown Street album. It was a travesty. Five years later "Shakedown Street" was my favorite opener at a Dead show. Bands that never change stagnate - look at Lynryd Skynyrd.

Tet: If you've never heard of the Dead i'd say you have worse problems than being old. Everyone knows the good ol' Grateful Dead!

I'm not a big fan of most electronica (although i likes me some trance and can tolerate a good mashup) and the only thing worse than dub step is glitch.
I would agree with that, Ztrip does some decent mashup's and its amusing. I do like sixtoo and some Kid Koala but most electric sucks, dub step and glitch and all that other shit, well to each their own but i don't like it.. lol

on a stripped blues down note, Seasick Steve is fucking amazing. he is what has actually been in my playlist for a few months now.


Had me a glitch when I dub stepped my toe and mashed it up good, put me in a trance
now thats just funny, i don't care who you are.

Spotify is the bomb. All the music is there. I give them $10 a month to avoid ads. You can listen to anything on a moment's notice on a laptop, ipad or smartphone, (any of which, of course, you can play through speakers.) It's cool to check out other people's playlists.

Saw Stevie Ray in Portland. Went to a concert in the Boston Common around 71-72 to see the Allman Brothers. J. Geils showed up and jammed with 'em.

That musta been cool.....I was still a bit young for concerts at that time however...lol
LOL I remember when it was cuz I had just gotten out of the army (71). I was in a division of the army in viet nam that had a big "A" for a patch..I remember it well. Anyway throughout the concert there was a gorgeous babe in front of me with that very patch sewn onto the middle of her butt. Looked a lot better on her rofl

Another anecdote about that concert: drugs were flowing quite freely you might say and I remember someone in the middle of the crowd having a helium filled balloon floating about 20 feet up with "THC $2 a hit" on it
