| Mr Lurker is corrupting us innocent souls.... Backyard Tire Fire is the new CRACKER - their tunes are brill. I went and ordered their forthcoming CD released at the end of August. I'm looking forward to it. Cheers Morst, for this one fine band you got me into. Thanks Kday. Exciting set list - but what is the song 100 crackers power? Is that a new version of C's greatest hit? |

| Lurkers R Us, Refering to your qoute, "I prefer gymnasts Shawn Johnson and Nastia on my roster. Pretty tight little tagteam. Would take the little gymnasts over Volleyballers May and Walsh, as they aren't as young and tight and flexible, but broken in enough. Not as much reproductive years for my primordial taste...."---Are you from East India or Burma? You need to make a trip to Cambodia or something? In this western society you can't act like that, stop being so backwards and primitive. You try going after young girls here and you'll be locked up with other simple-minded scumbags like yourself. Better hope you never show up around the wrong man's family, or at the campout for that matter... |

| Alan...I've been trying to figure out that one also. And there are two open dates after the PA show !! I'm planning on going if it is a real date and not a typo. Maybe someone can shed some light on it for us. Palmerton isn't far from me, but I'm thinking if the two open dates are maybe Philly I could catch two or three shows. Let's keep checking the tour page for updates. <<<<<<<<<<GREEN WITH ENVY, I WANT TO HEAD WEST WITH YA'ALL>>>>>>> |

| Awesome show in NYC last nite! I see that Cracker is listed on the Rock the Fall festival for Saturday Oct 18 in PA, but the night before they are in Europe? And go back to Europe three days later? Does anyone know if there is there a conflict, or is the Tour section of the website outdated? Thanks. |

| For Sale to lowest bidder: one wimpy, rainy, non-motivated tropical "storm". Answers to Fay, is not housebroken, and overstays her welcome, much like some of my yankee relatives! Matt and Kelly, I'm in for your Yucca Inn roll call, ETA 4pm Thursday. Bum, I'll gladly toss some excellent Herradura tequila onto the porch for a shot at cigar-ness. I'm truly hoping that the fewer bands lsited means longer sets for, well, the guys we're coming to Pitown to hear! Book your Integratron sessions now... |

| speaking of hippys, Joey said ... |
| You all probably know this. But you know how sometimes you do a little self reflecting and you suddenly realize stuff about yourself? The other day I had a realization. I turned to my son (Barron) and said "son, I dont know how this happened to me?!, Im a fricken hippy! Pay attention to what your doing in life, dont let that happen to you!!" I thought I was somekinda punkrockgirl gone mom but no thats not whats really going on here! I slipped and wound up a hippy. Not really what I was going for, not that I have ANY problems with 'hippys' whatsoever...just wow. Whats worse is that Im an old hippy to boot. sigh. I might of enjoyed it more had I realized myself sooner! :) Wish I could be nightcappin' it seaside too! "dont fach me up with peace and love..." |

| no sh!t...it's soooooo creepy to hear 'men' let their ego's loose on little girls. sometimes i wish boners were on guys foreheads, that way we could readily avoid those men who's egos have convinced them that pedophilia is acceptable as long as you don't act on it (riiiiight....like entertaining the thought in private isn't action enough...ick). totally disturbing. |

| JJ Cale in blue, We really used to enjoy playing "Any Way The Wind Blows : JJ Cale Anthology" in our old restuarant in Sonora, Ca. Became sort of our motif admidst the old gold country Sierra foothills. Our waitresses, cooks and dishwasher listened to varied bands like Camper, the Dead, Led Zep, Earth Wind and f, Chris Issack(?), and of course the Spanish station, and on the floor we rotated in "Time Out Of Mind" by Dylan. Yeah, we like Cale. Have you heard Clapton and JJCale: Road To Escondito? I live in the southwest now, Escalante/Arizona Strip and other than after a flashflood there are no mosquitoes. I feel ya when it comes to insects, used to eat me alive in Gettysburg, Penn. Why can't you see the sky where you live? It's probably a lame quastion but I've never been out there. Speaking of crime, at Campout '06 my girlfriend and i went to Circle K Minimart after seeing Cracker and a few guys rushed into the store after we entered and began stuffing merchandise in their pants and under their shirts. I guess these grown men came from behing the store dumpster. I actually thought we'd get jacked but it was all just petty crime-of course we were paranoid as we live in a small town now |

| Just came home from the Wed night show with Soul Asylum and Everclear. Cracker played first for 40 min. They were great but overall a BIG disappointment. I Love Cracker but knew nothing of the other 2. Soul Asylum was alright and played for about 1 hour. I did recognize a few tunes and was impressed. Everclear was just bad, from what I saw. The lead singer forgot the words to one song and had to start over, butchered a cover of Brown Eyed Girl, did the chorus only of the Stones Far Away Eyes, which is one of my favorite Stones tunes (why not do the whole thing, It's an awesome tune). Finally, he starts a Hall and Oates cover, Rich Girl. I just had to leave. Plus, the casino served no alcohol on the site. You could bring your own, but we didn't know. Cracker played: Gimme one more Chance Riverside Teen Angst 100 Flower Power Maximum Eurotrash Girl Low and opened with one song that I forget. They were great but played for far too short. Switch Everclear and Cracker for tonight, I say!! |

My Mormon friends from Saltlakecity really want to get laid in the desert, so bad,<<<< Lurkers R US - it's not the best idea of get laid in the desert. First of all there are nasty creatures wondering around (scorpions, spiders etc) and secondly the sand goes in all those unsavory places make it a pretty painful place to get laid. Thirdly, those cacti can be dangerous. I wouldn't advice it. Enjoyed the Rick Wakeman article Morst, thanks. That guy makes me laugh. He does a show on Planet Rock Radio:- www.planetrock.co.uk on a Saturday morning. It's just one great big laugh from beginning to end. Pity the music goes with Planet Rock's format and it churns out the same classic late 70's early 80's tunes each time I listen. |

| Lurkers R Us, My past campout experiences haven't been within a mile of stripclubs unless there is one in Yucca I missed on the way to Desert Hot Springs or JTNP. If your friends from SLC really want to "score" maybe the Crampout isn't what they need. There are women there, like anywhere and you can try your luck, but I'd recommend Lake Havasu or Indo-China, or for a sure thing, Habana,Cuba, via Cancun, Nasssau, Belize City or Montreal. Leave Pioneertown to us |

| Some Nut, You really wish you live in Joshua Tree? That's a bold statement. Where do you hail from these days. Myself, I look forward to the campout every year since '06, but by the end of the fest' I'm ready to get outta So'Cal. I really like the Yucca Valley area to drink/dance/smoke/hike etc. in but to work in and make a living would be a different story. But we'd like to come out to Pioneertown in the spring or winter for different weather patterns and other shows/venues as there is a lot going on at Pappy's all the time. |

| The only cactus repellent I know of is to stay away from alcohol. And who's going to do that? It also helps to stay in the lighted areas when walking around near the Motel late at night. Going around the left side there is a motion detector light, & that is good. The right side has no light, & I "think" that's where Splinter & glenn met Mr. Cactus. |

| as far as scorpions go... the little ones are more dangerous cause they can't meter their venom and usually put more than less in. The older bigger ones are not bad. The babies are cool cause they ride on the mommas back and you can find scorpions with a black light they will glow! |

| trollie, if you've never been to the desert, that itself is a mind blower. there's an ass and a half of things to see within a fifteen to twenty mile radius of pitown. joshua tree for instance which is like going to another planet. footwear? sandals are ok if you're not hiking, boots are better or at least some decent walking shoes. i' still haven't seen a scorpion or tarantula but, they say there's some around. lot's of roadrunners though and partridges. shay is right about the sun. my first time there, i didn't think it was all that bad until i found out that i got some sunburn UNDER my t shirt. it's an awesome place, i wish i lived there. |

| LNFA, don't think there's been any scorpion / crumb interaction at the campouts. Any scorpion worth its venom will know to keep away from party crazy mammals. The cacti though are viscious - they sneak up when you're not looking and throw themselves at you. |

| Also in the desert BE SURE to use lip balm with sunscreen! After my first Crampout, my lips nearly fell off my face!!! As for [[The Residents]] quashing anyone's good time, there's a lot of wide-open space there, it's pretty easy to have fun without disturbing the locals. I don't go up there to sleep, but a little bit is kinda helpful so I can stay up late the next night!! |

| Mwlof, I like your dream set lists as as I haven't heard most of those songs live. Shay, Too bad the residents get in the way of our "once in a lifetime/once a year" occasion. What's the best way or place to stay cool out there during the heat of the day? I feel like like I can rough it and take the heat but my friend thinks it'll be a "drain" Drink lots of water to counter all those diuretics I guess? |

| Speaking of the Carpenters and the Cracker cover. My absolute favorite from that covers album was Sonic Youth's rendition of "Superstar." Looking at the link Mungo provided, I obviously wasn't alone in my opinion. There were 109,452 listeners for that song, followed closest by the Cranberries "Close to You" with 5,000 or so. If you are not familiar with it, check out this video. It is just an awesomely haunting and beautiful tribute to Karen. |

| Here's my story for today - are you sitting comfortably? This morning downpours were heavy and I was miserable until I had my first customer. Rainy Days and Mondays - he said. ??? I was confused. The Carpenter's Song. My eyes brightened. I love the Carpenters and when he told me he had signed albums by Karen, I was interested. Came on this site the moment I got home and what did I find - Mungo's post. CRACKER's version of the said song and it's excellent. Almost as good as Karen's version. It's a small world. Mungo - if you want to go to Pi-Town, I'm going this year. We can go together if you like. I'm taking to 17.00 flight to LAX from Heathrow leaving 8th September. Nice to have you along. Get back to me here or on Myspace if you're interested. Cheers. |

| Don't be shy Shelly. Come on in the water; no alligators. Well, maybe a few, but they are far far away. And you've entered at the best time of the year. the buildup to Pitown is outstanding fun. I saved the Sound Off posts from the first PiTown in a Word Doc, & it's very interesting & funny. There were so many posts after the weekend that the posts at the bottom of this page were gone in 2 hours. I had never met anybody until PiTown 1, but was welcomed like family. (though some of them might regret it now). Hey Night Falls, see you there. I'm in room #15 at the motel. and MUNGO, you coming to PiTown this year? I know the airfares have been really high, but just saw that somebody has a $900 London-LAX fare (down from $1,600 last week). I hope you make it. Carpenters? The Carpenters? Talk about music to put you to sleep. I thought they realy sucked. How about The Captain & Tenille while we're at it. |

| Shelly, I came here as a total stranger a year or two ago, didn't know anyone, I never heard of Cracker and been begging people to tell me more about this movement called Camper Van Beethoven. This site has been a real education. I'm just getting to know everyone and am dying to meet them at the Campout in September. Let Night Fall had forgotten the most important subject on this board - alcohol. The consumption of (mainly). I don't really have a dream set. Anything will do - but I would like DL to include his favourite Kinks and Beatles song. Bear - what d'you mean BEARS don't have clocks, watches or calendars??? How do they know when they get up for Spring after their hibernation? |

| Shelley, yes a lot of people on here know each other but everyone has one thing in common: they love Cracker and in most cases Camper Van Beethoven as well. As Beachbum ( who I look forward to meeting next month) has said, this is a place to voice your opinion on anything related to music, politics, sports or anything else, for that matter. You're among at least somewhat like-minded people; you're a Cracker fan. Viva le difference! (that's three different languages out of seven). Feel free to intrude. As far as what the bands play at the Campout I have complete confidence in whatever they want to play for us. That said, I want to join in the fun. (In no particular order, whatsoever) 1. Reasons to Quit. 2. Can I Take My Gun Upto Heaven. 3. Brides of Neptune. 4. Forever. 5. The Good Life. 6. Trials & Tribulations. 7. The Golden Age. 8. Darling We're Out of Time. 9. Night Falls. 10. Tune In, Turn on, Drop out with Me. |

The lead singer is also in a band the XCleavers (Morst, you're a Wisconsonite, have you heard of them?) but the singer is such a Cracker/CVB fan he started up a side project, Mr.Wrong, that has Cracker flavor!!! Awesome!! The other thing is that for so long I have had my dream setlist - as I have titled it in my favorites in Itunes . . . but when I saw you all share your own, I thought I'd include mine!! ~sick of goodbyes ~I see the light ~happy birthday to me ~guarded by monkeys ~stp ~dont fach me up with peace/love ~ star ~ been around the world ~ dr bernice ~ st. cajetan ~ take me down to the infirmary ~ seven days ~ sidi ifni And I'd love to hear about 50 more . . . in my dreams!!

Also Lucero is playing their family picnic in batesville, arkansas sept 13th with jason isbell for those who can't make the campout and are near the memphis or little rock area that will be a great show.

Garden Grove (sublime cover) done by CVB ..... great so cal tune! 6. Crackersoul, Great guitar riff in this one, don't think I have heard this one more then 2 times live? 7. Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out, great sounding new tune, would love to hear live! 8.Cinderella, That would mean, we would have to bring L.P. back! and that would be most awesome :) 9.Ain't Gonna Suck Itself, and L.P. could do Brandy's part's? 10. What You're Missing, song would have to be re-written for Sal's parts! but would be fun! ..... and as alway's, whatever the boys bring to the stage, is cool with me!!

| actually i like stella artois, heiniken (sp?), boddingtons, guiness. budweiser cans (we call em "red white and blues") are great for the boat in the summer heat (bottles are bad on a boat - although if you want to 'hide the evidence' they sink alot quicker). i dont drink alot of "booze" - but when i do i enjoy vodka drinks. i enjoy wine too - but when i do - sometimes i forget to stop. a fine kentucky bourbon always goes well in ziplock freezer bags, tucked into trecrackers pants, as we file into the swamp to enjoy a gator game. if im forced into doin shots - yaegermeister works best - for that i can tolerate. call me a pussy, but i can't really drink much tequila. |

| For all my East Coast cousins, I will be near D.C. August 25-27 giving a talk. If anyone is in the area, give me a shout. Mat, I imagine that is not too terribly close to you, but let me know. If I end up moving that way, fear not, I would do it after the Campout. A man has to have his priorities. Lee |

| BTW, did you know that Tequila is supposed to be from just one region in Mexico. Yes, the Tequila region of one of the states in Mexico. Similar regs to Champagne, which is supposed to be ONLY from Champagne, France. Anyway, there is a lot of tequila made "illegally" outside the region. mwlof, Budweiser? They do make good commercials, though. Last night saw a clever Olympics one in which a dog ends up training a rejected Clydesdale to be successfully chosen the next year. Prison systems are fach ed up, & a lot of it is due to lack of money (surprise, surprise). |

| I'm game to try some Tequila. I'll have Morst with me to give me some of his expert advice. Rehabilitation, what's that? I'm searching for the good things in life. Blue Dixie yeah...excellent stuff. Morst, many thanks. |

| Michael Phelps is a freak, tres chic! Six gold medals, six world records. Damn, I hope he doesn't test positive down the road. I'll be observing the tequila consumption, but not taking part, therefore semi-accurately documenting what goes down after you guys get so wasted, you get wasted! |

| You boys have Cazadores Reposado back East, morst? I agree with FRW. My taste test winner. |

| Reposado means "rested" which means aged in charred French oak barrels for up to 1 year (the age is determined by the youngest tequila in a blend- most big name brands are blends so that they can make it consistent from batch to batch). Añejo means that the youngest portion of the batch is still aged at least one year. The aging process seems to smooth Cracker band members out, just like it does tequila. Blanco indicates a "silver" tequila which is not aged at all, and will have a little more bite as you first sip it. All Tequila brands have a NOM number which indicates their manufactuer. If two brands have the same NOM, then they are from the same company. As for what to buy, for moderately priced tequilas, Cuervo Tradicional is quite good (100% Agave of course) as is the Sauza Tres Generaciones line. Sauza Hornitos is a lower-priced 100% agave and is suitable for mixing with lime and agave sweetener or even a nice orange liquor like Patron Citronge in order to make a very good top shelf margarita. The better tequilas are not really worth mixing into marg's, since they are so damn good neat. Red Rocker Sammy Hagar's Cabo Wabo is good stuff but is not worth the extra $$$ for the name. Patron is shite. They are a Seagrams product, and they spend their money on marketing, like Britney Spears, not on creating a quality product like Cracker Brand music. Mezcal is usually made from smoked agave, and has a wide variety of different flavors. The worm is BS, the good ones don't have 'em. |

| just thinking....good stuff, but my opinion is that brandy wood brought such a unique and different approach to cracker...GREAT singer, underrated bassist, plus allowed them to go in a million different directions musically...kenny on keys will NEVER be beat, Johnny is a serious legend, DL is a serious pro on rythmn guitar, and Frank IS the best drummer cracker has EVER had. thats my dream team. |
