1. It was probably Jack Irons' drumming that got you into it - he has a terrific style of drumming. It's frightfully good.

    It isn't the studio version of Push Me, Pull Me that got me hooked, it is the more recent live version. It is actually something to do with how more vibrant they've made it. I think it could be something to do with Matt Cameron's drumming. I remember when they slipped that in midset at Leeds, would have divided the casual fan and hardcores undoubtedly. Especially when Don't Gimme No Lip and Army Reserve were about to follow Do the Evolution.
  2. Everything they do is better live...and now more than ever...I hope this makes sense, but I feel they play their songs better than ever..
  3. Mike joined DMB at the Gorge last night , on a tune called Spoon . A top 10 song of mine .

    Damn.....
  4. Mike and Eddie are quite busy with guest appearances, what's next, Mike with Walking Papers the 19th in Seattle?

  5. Too bad they choose this over a couple of extra PJ shows - at least they'd get paid for it (I assume they don't get compensated for showing up at someone else's concert).
  6. Thanks Matt! I was married 9/2/14. What a day. Almost time for Detroit.
  7. Congratulations Nick!

    I ordered Leeds, Gdynia and Milton Keynes so they are on their way now. I also ordered the posters. And while one the topic of posters, I got my Amsterdam II poster framed - looks swell.
  8. Caved in and bought Leeds. It will be with you all in a short while.
  9. Thank you Kieran! For your well wishes and the boots.


  10. Wedding day is always a big one....well, it was the one time I did it.

    Detroit is very soon, isn't it?! Still trying to figure out if I'm purchasing one or two tickets.
  11. Fall tour start three weeks tomorrow!
