This blog is an attempt to document the process of songwriting, so that I and you, if you are a composer, will be able to write things better and quicker.
Lets see where this will go as we explore creativity....

ummm..so...DT was "too punky?" whas that mean?
were they a punk trio with the dub aesthetic? (like some other good ROIR thangs?) or were they uh...WAHT..at least they played in Portland. friday night in Aurora, it was a middle aged Stones "tribute" band..and you know wha Big D? they didn't look like em, sound like em or anything else..but they got paid $5000 for 2 45's..and I betcha that was a HELL of a lot more than the Dub Trio made..
so there.

I cannot go to see any bands that push buttons on a laptop..I just can't do it. call me Mr Luddite..but I think it sucks..why do they bother to show up? They could just gather round old Jack's studio, knock back a few beers..and play one of their old mixes..dsl it in, so to speak..WHAT is the point of the button pushers "performing " live?
mostly I would agree with you on the button pushers - but at least if they had more room then Jack could have broken out his flute. And at least they were standing up and moving around a bit, not like say Autechre where they just behind their laptops and don't even move. That REALLY bites.
DT yeah I guess to punky - its just that I have heard all that stuff before a billion times so there wasn't anything new in it for me. And I suppose I was hoping they would be more dubby than they turned out to be.
And I am sure you are right on the money - the phony stones made a lot more I'm sure, although the tix for the show I went to were $20 each - not cheap for a sleazy ass bar. What in hell possesed you to go see a stones tribute???????????
I was in the Art gallery..when I came out I was smacked upside the head with "umm"..sumtin..that was sort of like I dunn know.."stonsey" I think it was Brown Sugar..at least maybe the chords were right?
My point being above..WHY would anyone pay the crap that much $$..that's serious dough for crap..and it's there every friday..all summer, with variants on the theme..hey, I think next friday it's "hi styx" a tribute to godknowwha..multiply this times every suburb in amerika,,with millions of fatass boomers "reliving" their boring youth..ugh..how do I get to Vancouver?
