Sorry, I'm checking in late. Just wanted you to know I received your "mixtape" on Friday and I gave it a thorough listening to yesterday. Fantastic job! Much great stuff that I've heard before and enjoyed but didn't have in my collection. Have you heard from the other podlings in our group?

Thank you, Ladies

Very cool!

I used to do this!
It all started when a friend sent me a cassette tape that she mixed for me.
We started sending music back and forth (from Georgia to Vancouver!) on tapes
until I finally got a cd burner, then the real fun began - making the case covers.
This one is a thank you gift for one of my girlfriends.


I like to put small three dimensional objects in that little space (is there a word for it?)
on the left. This one has a couple of little roses, a tassel and little metal charm.
The disk has 'thank you' songs on it.

Anywho, there's some ideas for ya : )

Ok...If I don't hear anything from him soon, I think I might convince pdxbiker to mail out his CD now so they can do a switch.

No, just his posting and a PM on Nov 12 about running late.  He was expecting to get his mixes in the mail last week.  But since he hasn't said anything, my guess is that things got too hectic.

Well, most of the smaller shows I go to are at GA venues. This one, where I saw Neko last week (and saw Jenny Lewis there with Kysmet a couple of months ago) is an old theater that has gone back-and-forth in its usage, most recently becoming a venue for live performances—some of which are stage productions/plays, so it makes sense that there is seating.

Odd.  I guess most of the shows I've seen have been GA shows.  I've seen Neko a few times now and they've all been GA.  Of course, I go mostly to club shows.  The only places I get ticketed seating are at theater shows, which are a rarity for me.  I guess the last time for that was when we went down to Knoxville to see John Prine with BDH.

Hmm. The venue I went to see Neko Case in on Thursday night wasn't terribly large (it's an old converted theater), but it was ticketed seating. There just don't seem to be any general admin seating venues in the area that I'm aware of.

70 shows, not 1970...  I saw my first show in 1978.

small venues.  We got front row seats for Dave Wakeling at a tiny place here in NH.  Good lord that was a fun show.

  well, i started going at least 15 years later. i guess times they were a changin.

But I'm talking about general admin shows that are standing room only (other than a couple of choice bar tables here and there). I don't know that I've ever been to a general admin show that has seating.

  Grateful Dead.  All the shows I ever went to were general admission.
I think it was about 70, but I don't remember exactly

Well, you can thank rabid Who fans in Cincinnati (and the late sound check and the late door-opening of the venue blah blah blah) for that going away (at large arenas, anyway).
