The Dead South - People Are Strange [Official Music Video]

No one remembers your name...

Greene, Gaetz, Boebert....

[O Really]

So Monday is when Bob Dylan plays in the Bend amphitheatre, and I just learned something I'd never heard of. The venue will be "phone free" and as people enter the area, their phone/smart watch has to go into a "Yondr pouch" which they carry around until the concert is over and it gets unlocked as they leave. Am I the last to hear about this thing? https://www.overyondr.com/howitworks

Cool, but how is this enforced?

My own preference would be patrolling drones that use lasers to zap illicit phones and singe the hands of the users.

Oh, the amphitheatre seating area is enclosed with a controlled entrance. If they can keep anybody from sneaking in without a ticket, they can make everybody put their phone is the bag. How they're going to keep those outside the enclosed area - sitting just across the river with clear sound - from recording it is a different question. I'm pretty sure the show runners don't have any authority to limit the recording of somebody who is on a public sidewalk totally outside the venue.

What's to stop someone from just dishonestly saying that they left their phone at home or in their car?

Is it just about recording? I thought that it might have been about distractions, too. After all, with button cameras/mikes one doesn't need a phone.

Our space lasers can lock in on cell phones within 3 seconds of activation.

Yeah, it's all about pirated recordings.

Ukrainian boys and girls choir joins Rolling Stones in Vienna to perform "You Can't Always Get What You Want." They had a 15 hour bus ride to get there.

Very nice, but the Stones couldn't have sprung for a charter jet?

It's still strange not seeing Charlie on the drums. R.I.P.

I'm not sure one would be willing to fly into a war zone and if they would it would likely be verrry expensive.

I'm not sobbing you're sobbing. Brandi and her sweet encouragment, Wynonna and her sweet tears. Joni nailed it. Her giggles at the end. Oh my.

Many more poignant and wonderful comments under both videos. 78!

Paul Simon 80! Barely a mention from CBS Mornings, though. Maybe he refused an interview?

Both Sides, Now

"Both Sides, Now" is a song by Canadian singer-songwriter Joni Mitchell. First recorded by Judy Collins, it appeared on the US singles chart during the fall of 1968. The next year it was included on Mitchell's album Clouds (which was named after a lyric from the song), and became one of her best-known songs. It has since been recorded by dozens of artists, including Dion in 1968, Herbie Hancock in 2007, and Mitchell herself who re-recorded the song with an orchestral arrangement on her 2000 album Both Sides Now.

In 2004, Rolling Stone ranked "Both Sides, Now" at number 170 on its list of the 500 Greatest Songs.

More.

More.

Fabulous. Any idea who the older woman in white blouse to Joni's right throughout is? She's clearly in Joni's musical circle and I feel like I should recognize her.

Edit: I skimmed several articles that ID collaborators there, but not her. Maybe just a friend, not a star.

I stumbled on this, a new version to me:


The Battle Of Evermore - Jimmy Page & Robert Plant ft. Najma Akhtar

London 1994
Plant's voice had lost a little kick, but Page's mandolin was still amazing and Najma Akhtar is a gem.

LZ IV The Battle Of Evermore Trivia:

Sandy Denny

... Plant played the role of the narrator and Denny represented the town crier....

To thank her for her involvement, Denny was given the symbol on the album sleeve of three pyramids (the four members of Led Zeppelin each chose their own symbols for the album). This is the only song Led Zeppelin ever recorded with a guest vocalist....

What an honor!

Great version.
New to me too, thx!

Plant actually sounded pretty good. Read once after his first collaboration with Allison Krauss that he was having difficulty touring, he had never had to harmonize before .


One of my faves.

De nada.

Good, just not soaring like in the original IMO.

Hah!

Excellent, thanks. Talk about amazing mandolin and soaring vocals!
