He was carping on about Duran Duran at the time but was basically morphing into Simon Le Bon.KCportland wrote: ↑15 Jun 2021, 8:37pmI truly believe Are You Ready on CTC, while not necessarily an "upgrade" over the live version, works better with the Bernie arrangement as a studio track. That live arrangement is pretty damn sparse, which works with an audience present, but I don't know how that would have translated in studio.
That said, if there was a soundboard of Hofstra 84, I could lay to rest many of my CTC "what ifs". The Are You Ready from that show is absolute heat. One of those 84 shows where Joe's 84/85 manic-ness actually works ("wrong number!).
Also Joe, it's one of the infamous "Joe's white sport coat" shows, so he must have looked a little nuts up there

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

The whole thing puts me in mind of a serial killer talking to me while I'm down in the pit.

Re: Save the Date: EET Week 2021
May do my CTC cover again. The guitar playing finally clicked for me this year.
Re: Save the Date: EET Week 2021
I still need to do my Jericho cover. Never got past the intro. It'll probably be a few years out, realistically.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Hey guys, happy holiday!
I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

EET Week is like Alumni Week! If Gene has put in an appearance—hello, generalisimo!—maybe Ratty will emerge from his bunker.
