This is Really Terrible
This is Really Terrible
So this Deadhead guy I know just sent me this link. The little joy that was in my body has just been sucked out entirely. So, if you are feeling happy today, I am here to ruin it for you. Behold:

Re: This is Really Terrible
Hello,
This is one of those "Hey, smell this. It's horrible!" kind of moments. I could have guessed when I saw they were playing on rugs.
I lasted 58 seconds. Top that!

I lasted a minute twelve but basically have no problem with half the Dead covering Train in Vain. If only Jerry was there.
IIRC, I think Bob Weir did this song with Jesse Malin at a Strummer tribute once. There’s that picture of Weir with Joe floating about as well. And Mick wrote a couple of songs by mail with Robert Hunter for a kids’ movie project tha never got done.

Eh, it's OK. It's fine. They play it straight and respectfully as the standard it now is.

Yay, a new nominee for worst Clash cover ever. The smell of ass turned into sound.

Re: This is Really Terrible
I’m just not a fan of the whole jam band sound. I get a negative physical reaction listening. And it wasn’t actually the jocks, but rather the deadheads, who tortured me in high school (sexual harassment, that kind of fun stuff). So I have always just had an issue with them. I know I need to move on, but I still have a hard time doing so.TeddyB Not Logged In wrote: ↑16 Dec 2017, 3:22amI lasted a minute twelve but basically have no problem with half the Dead covering Train in Vain.

Re: This is Really Terrible
Does it include that douchbag John Mayer too? Apparently he plays with the Leftover Dead at times.

Re: This is Really Terrible
I’m no fan of the jam band thing either, Jenny. I used to pretty much loath all of it and, now that I’m old, have a bit of appreciation for early Dead and Quicksilver. I think the Dead were more exotic to Joe and Mick. I remember Mick having a row once with Gerry Harrington defending them. But yeah, the fans of the jam scene are pretty douchy.
I see no reason for you to move on! Screw ‘em.

Re: This is Really Terrible
Oh shit that was fucking awful. I made it like 55 seconds. I was pretty terrible from the start, but when those backing vocals kicked in, I realized I would literally rather die than hear another second of it.

That's what we in the UK call "piss poor"
Re: This is Really Terrible
That's a phrase in the states too, and wholly applicable here.
Sounds like a half-assed bar band. If they can play at RCMH, what's my deal?

I'm not gonna mince words, they should be beaten about the head with their instruments.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Re: This is Really Terrible
Just watched it again, still can't figure out why peeps dislike it with such a passion. Sure, the lead vocals are lame (is that Bob Weir singing?), but it just sounds like an average US bar band from 25 years ago playing a good song competently - not very exciting, but no jamming or mucking about. Why the hate?
