First track on the album. I'm doing an acoustic-only reprise for the last track.

So, yes.

Can you do that with Garage Band? I don't own the Macintosh or Garage Band yet.

I really appreciate all the positive feedback from you guys. Trotsky is going to help me snap pictures of Monte drinking non-alcoholic beer for the cover art.


...

All Netphoria trolling aside, my cousin played steel guitar on the Grand Ole Opry twice in the late nineties for Mila Mason and Aaron Tippin. So uh... I guess I could track his old ass down and make this drug riddled dream come true.

If you are gonna chain a ton of pedals to it you might as well use a lap steel and use a separate expression pedal

personally I think all a pedal steel really needs is some mind-blowing reverb to make any song transcendent

3:48 until all the instruments cut out in the outro. pedal steel is indescribably amazing

I called my dad. I told him that he couldn't say anything because it hadn't been publicly announced yet. I know my dad is a big Internet freak, and he's been known to be a Wikileaker. I was like, "Dad, you and I are blood. I'm going to tell you something, but you can't tell anybody." I guess it's just something that you want to share with the people that you're closest to, like family and longtime friends. My dad cried.

The most emotional part for me was thinking about Hillel Slovak. That was where it got me. I felt very good about it, but I felt very much like our work has only just begun. Now that we've got Josh in the band, we have a chance to make some great records over the next few years. But there was something about going back and thinking about something that we started in a living room with Hillel Slovak. Because he's no longer with us, it seemed emotional and beautiful. It's really kind of his induction that I'm most excited about. He's a beautiful person that picked up a guitar in the 1970s and didn't make it out of the 1980s, and he is getting honored for his beauty.

I don't feel weird about it. I know what the next few years look like for our band, and I'm incredibly excited to be playing with these guys. I feel like our creative well is running over. I don't think it's going to stigmatize us. Nothing has the power to diminish the love we have for what we're doing right now. It's just an interesting interlude to be accepted into the Hall of Fame while we're still vibrantly going about our business.

As a kid, I was anti-Elvis. I just didn't get it. Once I stopped being so judgmental I found the great wonder of Elvis and all that he did. I was a little self-centered gutter punk in the early 1980s and all I wanted to do was diss everybody. I remember going to Graceland as a kid and talking shit while I was there. Now if I went there, I'd think about all the great things he did and what a great musician he was.

My money's on "no, he won't."

for a brief moment SP was probably the biggest rock act around, but in terms of legacy they have been relegated to a footnote in the annals of alternative music. I have no idea which of these bands is already in the hall of fame, but I don't see SP getting in before Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, AIC, Pixies, Sonic Youth, R.E.M., Weezer, Radiohead, The Cure, The Smiths.... I wouldn't even be surprised if Bush, Live, and Silverchair beat them. No one gives a shit about Smashing Pumpkins anymore. Unfortunately they had almost no impact on the next generation of artists sonically, and their legacy was mostly carried forth by really terrible, obnoxious emo bands

At most it was 1995-96 or so, probably not even a full 12 months.

You think so because you like Wilco bands, but it's def. not true. SP reverberates anywhere people use pedals and want to create droning walls of gee-tars.

I feel like the smiths would decline, seems like something mozzer would do and marr doesn't want to be famous.

I don't see the pixies going because i think the tourist attraction is looking for Good Time Rock and Roll kind of thing because their target demo is 50 year old geezer rock dudes

they want to get us in there and they are either adding or have added nirvana. i think the time has passed on the pixies. REM is a fucking shoe in and a great example of what "the biggest band around" looks like.

Sonic Youth i doubt it too arty and still not mainstream, radiohead probably, the cure's already in AFAIK, PJ definitely it's the kind of jam band thing they want to encourage, soundgarden ditto, weezer definitely rivers cuomo would be so into this dumb shit, AIC i think is actually more of a footnote than SP. They just sound like black sabbath on heroin it's not like they were actually innovative or good. In fact, AIC is practically the major culprit for Nickelback.

yeah i don't think this is happening they might as well give one to STP
