Episode 146: We Need a Cantina

Show Notes:
Recorded Tuesday, April 19 2011 (9:00 PM - 11:30 PM) at Casa de Scott, Allen Park MI
    “Mid-April marks the start of the 2011 tour, and how did we celebrate?  By throwing a listening party for the new Roger Clyne CD!  But don’t worry, we still talk about the Tampa concert and the exciting new changes to the setlist. (Special guests: Todd and Ron.)”

    The show description originally began with “April 19 marked the start of the 2011 tour”.  This is inaccurate; the tour began in Tampa on Saturday, April 16.  April 19 was the release date of Unida Cantina as well as the date of the tour’s second stop, at Raleigh.  What can I say, I wrote it after a long day of editing.
    Get Unida Cantina from Roger (CD or vinyl), at Amazon (CD, MP3, or vinyl), or from iTunes.

    01:56 - a much better photo than I remember, from @peacemakerjd on Twitter
    02:14 - fan photo from RCPM’s sombrerofied Salt River Fields concert, April 16 2011
    04:35 - RCPM’s Watering Hole discussion board
    06:20 - radio interview from The Blaze, ASU’s Alternative Radio 1330 AM, March 24 2011
    20:01 - a time cut
    23:29 - Eddie Money’s “I Think I’m in Love”
    29:17 - sound effect provided by Scott’s djay app
    30:14 - Chad Heckler’s Heckler Custom Guitars
    33:13 - I was merely nodding toward Scott’s speakers; I didn’t expect the gesture would provoke such a reaction.  And his speakers are quite good; he was just playing everything too loud for the room.
    50:38 - told you the speakers were loud
    53:41 - O.A.R.‘s official site | O.A.R. on Wikipedia
    1:01:34 - Scott is trying to play “Green & Dumb” out of his music library but keeps finding live versions
    1:24:23 - as you can hear in the concert montage in Episode 144, they did perform “Boomerang Love” in Australia (but this was the same show where Jimmy had his accident, so I guess you can excuse his confusion)
    1:26:37 - a time cut
    1:27:41 - Jimmy changed this for the following concert, repeating that line twice just like he wanted
    1:29:53 - the full song, we mean, since some of it had been performed last year during “Where the Boat Leaves From”
    1:31:29 - especially since it sounded like a newer arrangement of “Son of a Sailor”, which I wouldn’t expect needs another arrangement
    1:35:26 - more from radio interviewThe Blaze interview

Episode 139: Happy Crimble

Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, December 8 2010 (10:00 PM - 11:30 PM) at Zodiac Racquet Club, Southgate MI
    “Scott, Mickey, Mike, and Schmoe review Peter Mayer’s Goodbye Hello album, only about thirteen months after its release; and the concert roundup is from the October 16 Mountain View CA show.  (Cameo by Jennifer.)”

    01:18 - sorry about talking with my mouth full; I was finishing off the pizza.
    01:48 - audio taken from one of the many versions on YouTube
    03:05 - “Behind Cosell’s Announcement of Lennon’s Death, from New York Times
    06:40 - Double Fantasy was released on November 17 1980 (US)
    07:27 - Scott is reading from “Death of John Lennon” on Wikipedia
    07:53 - John Lennon: The Life by Philip Norman [Amazon link]
    08:28 - Hud used to drive me (and Mike’s sister) to high school
    09:32 - Peter Mayer’s Goodbye Hello [Little Flock Music link]
    11:02 - “Photos from Jimmy’s Appearance in Nashville”, at Buffett World
    11:14 - “Videos from Andy Roddick Foundation Charity Gala”, at Buffett News
    11:27 - setlist for the Andy Roddick Foundation gala, from Buffett News
    11:37 - “Use Me” clip at YouTube, via Buffett News
    11:50 - “Videos of Jimmy with Allen Toussaint at NOAAHH”, at Buffett News.  Jimmy’s third appearance was a private show in Houston for American Express platinum cardholders.
    12:28 - “Jimmy Buffett Announces Australia Concerts on Today Show”, at Buffett World
    14:02 - Outsourced, at NBC.com
    14:57 - refers to a U of M football Top Ten List in the Detroit Free Press and its “One Particular Harbaugh” listing.  For more information on Jim Harbaugh, e-mail Schmoe.  You’ll learn more than you ever wanted to know about University of Michigan football coaching.
    15:34 -  Mike’s shopping suggestion: the cordless Frozen Concoction Maker on sale at Buy.com
    17:01 - our 2009 Christmas wishlist
    17:26 - my insistence in making fun of Schmoe had me taking a clip from the end of the recording and jamming it here, hence the difference in sound
    18:02 - unfortunately I failed to record this concert — the only one I missed this year — and had to use SunLover‘s MP3s from Buffett News.  Note: there was no pre-show interview this night, Jimmy and Mac played through what would’ve been the intermission, and apparently Jimmy’s cold was why he sang “Margaritaville” so badly.
    28:01 - specifically, Coverville #723 The 7th Annual Thanksgiving Double-Shot Beatles Cover Story
    30:40 - hey! Scott set off a new alarm!
    32:09 - “Shoot me” is what John Lennon repeats during the beginning of “Come Together”

    35:51 - St Mary’s in Rockwood MI
    37:30 - Michele, by complete coincidence, will show up in Episode 140
    38:12 - I seriously have no idea why I’m saying “frenchified” so much.  I don’t know what came over me.
    38:49 - an inside joke.  Schmoe completed the Detroit marathon (as almost seen here) on October 18; Mike ran the half-marathon, and we won’t let him forget it.
    44:40 - Nadirah Shakoor’s Nod to the Storyteller, which we reviewed in Episode 94
    57:12 - Faygo Pop, a local pop company.  [Warning: page loads with music.]
    58:27 - get the “Love Theme from Wastin’ Away on the North Coast” at iTunes (US) and Amazon.com

    013:18 - according to Wikipedia: “The theme was a short version of a Franz Schubert piece, Piano sonata No. 20 in A Major, D. 959, IV. Rondo. Allegretto.”

    048:46 - Scott refers to Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford
