Nice tributes to Mark - will play a tune (or two) by Sparklehorse during the next Pipeline show coming up around Thursday - links will be supplied.
Loving your El Ray pix Morst. Thanks for posting.
@Velena - not too familiar with Clint Maul. It's Myspace time me thinks.
@BB agreeing with you there.

Was away from the Sound Off so I just saw your post. Splinter is right, the shjow is at the site of the old pavilion easy walking distance from the H. INN. I only live about a hour up the coast so not sure if we will go for the day or try to find a room for just Sat night.

Thanks for the alert on IOP.

Devastating news about Mark Linkous. You could always hear it in his music, but it's hard to accept that his genius is forever curtailed. Particularly when, if EMI weren't such idiots, he would've had the album of the year in 2009 and be financially sorted. Too late, but "Dark Night of the Soul" is going to be released this summer. The word is he'd pretty much completed a new Sparklehorse album too - I hope that sees the light of day.

RIP.

Last night I was on my wife's phone small screen and did not get it right. I'll try again. Just before Cheap Trick took the stage Pictures of Matchstick Men came on by CVB so the Local DJ Skid Roady comes out about a minute into the song and says sorry to interrupt Status Quo but the band will momentarily be taking the stage after this they start the song over but of coarse I was letting them know the correct band playing the song. David and the Status quo do not even sound the same. A veteran DJ should know the diff. Cheap Trick was great.
My next show is Yo Yo Ma. If any one gets the chance to check out Mark O'Connor the violinist, Wow !
I volunteer as an usher, this is a great way to see shows free.

The reason it's so difficult to sign up for 'dime is that they only allow a set number of accounts in the system. The only time new users can sign up is right after the system has purged the members who didn't keep their share ratios up. The ONLY way to get in is to simply keep trying. Eventually, you will get access. Once you do, be sure to upload, or you'll be the owner of a purged account and then you'll have to start over!

"We are still accepting new members, but there is a cap in order to keep the load on DIME's servers (and the load on DIME's moderators!) at a manageable level, so that users can get the best possible service and support.

Every ten minutes around the clock a sweep runs that removes any accounts that have expired since the last run. DIME's home page tells you how many new accounts were opened in the preceding twenty-four hours, and that's a good gauge of how many openings there might be over the next twenty-four hours.

So keep trying, and good luck. We do not have a waiting list, nor (at this writing) an invitation system. You just have to snag a slot when one is available. We've found that if you keep trying for about thirty minutes at a sitting a couple of times a day it should not take long."

DJ Hickery Exp:
"Antler Dust," available pretty much everywhere. A mystery-thriller sort of thing set in the Flat Tops Wilderness involving animal rights activists, a female hunting guide and much more. Speaking of Amazon and cheap prices (thanks, Chris) there are some available there...some copies even cheaper than Kerosene Hat. Thanks for the lead to Canonbridge, I will check them out. What's your October title? Cheers, Mark
 

Mar 02 at 10:57 am
Chris said ...
 
Just saw that Kerosene Hat is on sale this month for $5 at Amazon, as Sunrise was last month. That should generate a nice bump in sales. I wonder how Amazon decides what albums to choose? I also wonder if the artist take any sort of pay cut as a result, or whether Amazon swallows it, to generate more traffic to their site?

Mark, best wishes with the book. What book is it?
I write fiction too and I've been sending manuscripts to UK companies but to no avail.
I recently had luck with an Iowa company called Canonbridge LLC at their Sceal imprint - try them. They are not actually agents, but publishers.
www.canonbridge.com.
I'll be slotted for October ready for the Christmas market.
Best wishes Mark.

Erin--Next book is done; making some final edits this month. I'll be out agent-hunting in a few weeks. (Last agent's husband is retiring and she's down-sizing; fiction is a rough market right now, etc.)

If any Crumbs know anyone in the business, let me know.

I think the plot works pretty well, at least based on comments from a few early readers. Thanks for asking. One way or another, Allison Coil will ride again. Cheers, Mark

Wow! Nice work on the recording Lance. Sounds awesome!

I nearly got taken out by an avalanche on Berthoud Pass on the way back from Steamboat. I couldn't have made the Denver show regardless. Nice to hear it.

Total opposite crowd from the first 2 nights in CO!

I should have the recordings from the first 2 night up shortly (and by shortly I mean over the next few days). I'm working on night 2 (Steamboat) now and I think I've managed to make it sound okay considering that most people were there to socialize.

Nice meeting all of the folks I met over those 2 nights. I'm sure I will see you again (hopefully sooner than later).

Seriously, what a show last night at Swallow Hill. It was like a NPR version of New Year's Eve. Just the songs, stripped down and headed straight for the gut, head, heart...whatever. We've long made "Crackers In Bed" mixes out here (just the mellow stuff, "Big Dipper" followed by "Infirmary," you get the picture) but everyone of the cuts last night would have been perfect too, even the quote-unquote rockers. The audience was rapt. Ya could have heard a pick drop. It was like Cracker In Church. Loved Johnny's guitar "beep" for the "one-eyed Malibu," dug his "Here Comes The Bride" lick on Wedding Day, laughed at David's Wal Mart story that inspired "Tune In." Cracker was here 10 years ago for my wife's 40th in Boulder. Ten years to the day later (I'll let you do the math), they cometh again. And, yes, I happen to know they played "Happy Birthday To Me" both times.

Can't wait for the St. Patrick's show in Myrtle Beach! Not sure how they managed to get the band all the way out here for one east coast show in our little tourist city but I'm damn glad they did. I've been waiting 15 years for this.

Ike Reilly is gonna be interviewed by Fret12, which you may recall relies upon fan-submitted questions for guitarists. (Johnny & Greg both did interviews in January when Apothecary X came through Chicago)

Great show last night! This was only the second time I have seen them, and the first time "unplugged." I continue to be amazed. Brandi was impressive too. Rock on.
Peace, Love, and May Your Beer Mug Never Run Dry.

This was the quietest concert I have ever been to as the crowd gave the artists their undivided attention. Last night of Brandi Shearer on the tour and she played a 45 minute set which again was outstanding but this time I could hear her.

beachbum said ...
 
iamacracker2, that sounds like an unbelievable set to me. How many great songs can you play in one night?

Ade, good to hear from you again. I should have mentioned John Keats, since he's my favorite poet. Got stuck with an English Lit. course in college, & ended up loving it. "You wouldn't heckle John Keats, would you?"

hey dlbNkc, thanks for the suggestions. Actually we've been here a bunch of times, so we've been to a lot of places. We stay in South Kihea, near Wailea. You are so right about Mama's fish House food. And around the corner it's cool to see the best windsurfers in the world at Ho'okipa (sp?). Shoudl have gone today, with 30 mph winds.

The drive to Hana gave me a pain in the ass the first time; something like 600 switchbacks. So a couple of years later we did it the right way, and stayed overnight in Hana.

beachbum If you can make it to Pia'a on Maui eat at Mama's Fish house or if you drive to Hana there is a red sand beach you have to park at the Sheraton Maui and walk a small trail on the right side of the bluff that sticks out into the ocean. The other side of the bluff is Hana Bay this is where I spent my honeymoon and is well worth the extra effort there are only two red sand beaches in the world and the other is cold. If you go to Hana keep going around dont turn around because of the signs for this is worth it to.

Oh man, I'm hating myself for not going up to Steamboat now. Duty Free, Man In Me, and Infirmary? (Hey that rhymes.) Unbelievable. Especially Infirmary... damn do I love that song.
But... Ft. Collins was still great, regardless of the buffoonery going on in the back of the room. I just don't understand that.
Much thanks to David and Johnny for soldiering on and delivering a great performance in spite of the chattering jackassery present.

Beachbum,
I was just working on a complicated response to your Van Gogh comment, probably based on the joke about a gorilla with bananas in his ears.

Then I realised that heckling an artist would be done by taking a crayon and "helping" their painting by drawing spaceships or dinosaurs ;-)
Can we sponsor someone to tell folks at SXSW to shut up ?

iamacracker2 said ...
 
So last night was loud crowd banter and not to be out don the steamboat crowd was just as loud. Why are you at an acoustic show to talk to your friend or hear the music? I am there for the music but most others are just plain rude. I even had a full bottle of beer dropped on my head from the balcony. Lucky for me my head was freshly shaved and it rolled right off. Hope tomorrow is a ton quiter as we are getting robbed of longer sets and is very frustrating. Brand Shearer even tried to warn the crowd that they need to shut up multiple times but they could not hear her over their own conversations. I must say she is a gorgeous woman with a gorgeous voice. Her sets have been short but so damn good!

Luckily the audio was recorded off the sound board and will sound great.

We're finally at our favorite place in Maui. We weren't trying to get home Robin, we were jsut trying to get the fach out of Honolulu.

I'm just glad there was no devastation anywhere in HAwaii, like there was in Chile. We were lucky as hell.

And thanks for the concert calls, Kday, chill & iama2. That was pretty damn cool.

Now, back to the Mai Thai's.

I couldn't agree more re: the rude behavior of the crowd last night. Even after the guys asked everyone to take it down a notch, it continued. Thanks to Jason for turning up the volume so that we could hear the music over all the loud banter. I thought David was going to walk off when that one chick was trying to take that piece of plastic off his shoe!
It was a pretty emotional night for many of us...a good friend of ours that worked at Rd 34 passed away Wed. and it was the first time many of us had been together since. He was a wonderful kid, always full of life and was friendly to everyone. Such a tragic loss of a young soul.
In spite of all this, it was a GREAT show...Brandi Shearer opened and the great local band Glove Trucker finished off the night. Johnny hung out and shared some of his time with those of us that hung around. I always feel so fortunate to live where I do after shows like this!

Thanks to David and Johnny for putting in a great performance last, despite the loud and seemingly unappreciative crowd. I still can't believe we got an encore at all.

What was their deal? Did all those people actually pay to come see Cracker? If you want to hang out and talk with your friends at a bar on Friday night, fine, but don't do at a show like. Have some courtesy, both for the musicians and the rest of audience. Anyway, I'm probably preaching to the choir, as I'm sure anyone who's reading this and was there would, no doubt, agree with me. Thanks again guys; I know there were a number of fans there who enjoyed hearing you play.

What a great day! I was in HyVee and on the music in the grocery store it was Brandi Shearer, who I met last Fri. at the Cracker show in Ames. So Im listening to the local alt. Station in KC 96.5 and their looking for best one liners from songs and they played a band who I saw recently and I called them to comment on the band because they had kind of forgotten about them so while I was waiting for them to answer I thought I better think of a One liner from Cracker and I learned What the world needs now yesterday on the guitar (Im taking lessons) so they answered and I gave the folk singer line and they played it the next song well after the song the DJ goes on and on about how David is the king of one liners and its exactly what he was talking about and couldn't say enough about Cracker then my wife calls about a hour later to tell me Cracker tickets went on sale today for the Crossroads here in KC, its a great venue May Fri. the 13th

Hey Bret (story about how it's about the Built To Spill guitarist and how one day he came into the dressing room looking at his phone and asked "Will we know when it's time to start dragging the rich people from their cars?" and David answered, "I'll text you.")
Infirmary
Wedding Day
Teen Angst
When I was 17.../Very Good Year
Friends (David discussed how Johnny sang it solo on his record instead of as a duet, and therefore has a bromance with himself)
All Her Favorite Fruit (Gravity's Rainbow story)
Another Song About the Rain (Johnny forgot the whole section starting "highway flares make red the street"--oh no, my favorite part! He admitted to accidentally leaving it out)
Anal probe/grandma/whore story (short version, the night before it was the long version)
ETG (lots of mess-ups, lol. David discussed how the "case of the crabs" section always gets a big cheer in MN for some reason)
Sunrise

Dr. B
chat about the venue change in Duluth tomorrow
chat about how when people shout out things they don't even hear them--to which my friend's brother shouted out "You suck!" and David said "We've never heard THAT before!" (dude was kidding of course and apologized after the show)
anal probe/old lady whore song story
ETG
Iraq/MN Vikings story
Teen Angst
Sunrise
Wedding Day
Mr. Wrong
Big Dipper
St. Cajetan (during which my friend's bro kept talking to me about how much David resembles a young Dennis Hopper)
Low
Sidi Infi
Encores:
Old person/Iraq story which David ended with " fach you, we're old"
When I Was 17... (whatever the real title is)
Another Song About the Rain
All in all, excellent show! Looking forward to seeing them at a coffee house tomorrow! BTW I don't know if all their duo shows lately are like this--but the opener (very good--got 2 of her CDs) started on time, went 30 mins, and the duo came on 15 mins later. So easy to miss the show if you don't show up on time!!!
Good to see Mike & Andy, sad I missed a couple of other friends.
Saw a couple of tapers. One was very stealth-like and had his camera hidden in his jacket, lol. Hope the tapes show up somewhere!

Ralph sent my phone a couple photos from Ames. When last we texted, he said it was shaping up to be a fun time and he was all hooked up to record. If you need help figuring out how to decode flac, use xACT by Scott Brown, you'll be able to convert to whatever format you like. If the problem is downloading the FLACs to begin with, I suggest Firefox browser with DownThemAll - downthemall.net

Great little show last night in Ames crowd was very sedate, the 41/2 hrs this morning was much more relaxing then the 6 hr slide up yesterday i counted 25 car off between KC and Des Moines and two overturned 18 wheelers. I met Ralf and April they said Morst could help a Apple user for Archive files. maybe? Hope you like the glass Johnny and David .

Great day outside today. Got escarole and beans and a nice bolognese sauce going on the stove. Just fired up the fire pit. First beer opened. Slept about 2 hours last night - make up for it tonight. Listening to the new Railbenders - which i LOVE - one theme on that one - WHISKY DRINKING!! Love it. Sound guy came over today - great guy and knows what he is doing and seems pretty pumped up to help me out.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

See ya'll down the road

listening to Belly Up show from 12/29/09. Mixed feelings about the "stories". It was OK one time, but it seems like more music is better. I always complain the shows are too short anyway, so I'd rather hear 10-15 minutes of music, than stories. Then again, David sounded like his voice needed some rest, so maybe that's what's going on. If so, whatever is best for him.

Lube, better get back to taking care of that guy's perforated colon. I'm sure it need a lot of attention.

The show Wednesday in Milwaukee was great. Thanks.

dlbNkc ,
Glad you liked the videos.
Dr Dog came through Milwaukee a couple of weeks ago (Turner Hall Ballroom). They were a ton of fun. The new songs sounded really good. Good crowd.
My camera is the lumix zs3, which I hear is being replaced with a newer model. They are small, good zoom, HD, record stereo, noise is at a minimum, and it's priced reasonably.

I use the [[Internet Anagram Generator]] to find out that the letters in acffhmorst can be arranged to spell "Chaff Storm."

Apple Computer = Compleat Upper
Ronald Wilson Reagan = Insane Anglo Warlord
Apothecary X = Coax Therapy

Great show in Madison tonight. I forgot to mention to David or Johnny that they should get Brandi Shearer to sit in for I Want Everything or something like that.

Very nice videos, dephot. I was lucky enough to be at Shank last night and every song was beautifully played. Certainly great to hear Sidi Ifni live, which was a first for me. It's tonight's show in Madtown that I can't make (because Morst won't babysit for me :).

Blind, have a great time tonight. I thought maybe you and the Mrs. would have made it to last night's show as well.

One-eye, of course I was up front! My table was practically on the stage - so I was a little worried how the calls would sound.

Do you realize that Brandi Shearer's name can be rearranged to form the following combinations?

Sandbar Rehire, Harridan Beers, Harridans Beer, Arrears Behind, Banished Rarer, Brained Rasher, Brained Sharer, Bandier Rasher, Bandier Sharer, Brander Ashier, Barred Hernias, Bearish Darner, Bearish Errand, Rehab Drainers, Brasher Rained, Rehabs Randier, Rehabs Drainer, Barren Shadier, Barrens Haired, Barres Handier, Bairns Reheard, Brains Reheard. . . and more if you allow more than 2 words. . .

ps the [[link]] MIGHT work.

Hey great video from last night's show, dephot!
And thanks Shelly for the concert calls - sounded like you were near the front, which would be no surprise. :) Heard "One Fine Day," "ETG" and a stripped-down,slowed-down version of "Hey Bret" that was quite interesting.

Just a few hours away before "High Noon" great video Shelly from Milwaukee. Suggested song to play tonight "Can I take my gun to Heaven" would be cool or maybe a song off "Countryside" really I am just glad to have you in MADTOWN...

HBD belatedly Chill-i! Just catching up w/ S.O. mid-way through a vacay in FL.

All is well w/ the mad Dr. in Orlando. My family and I spent the night at Matt & Kelly's wonderful place after catching a Magic game. We "self-upgraded" our seats at halftime to get really close to the court. W/out getting overly descriptive, it appears Doc Matt has things well in hand as we inch ever closer to April.

Beachbum, I had just one phone, but made a lot of calls. By the way, apologies to those of you I didn't get to call but wished you were there enjoying Cracker with me (I hope you know who you are); the show was over all too soon! As for sound quality, the acoustics in the room were outstanding, and the crowd was pretty quiet while DL and JH were playing. I was sitting at a table up front, and I simply dialed and held the phone facing away from the stage. Just lucky, I guess....
 

Feb 17 at 8:37 pm

Justj, how many phones did you have with you at the show? Seems like you must have had 2 or 3 going at once.

BTW, the song came across very clear; any special technique?

(Thanks again sweet girl) so FYI is that Im completely forever locked out of my "onlyonejoey@hotmail" account, please reach me on facebook or myspace or josiejojo168@yahoo.com. I got locked out cuz of an auto update then it required my password, which I have smoked right out of my memory. When I set it up I didnt have a backup email so they cant forward...my password hint is: 'favorite fictional character', 8 spaces long...its not garfield...wanna help me figure it out?
