U2 now wants in on the Rock Band/Guitar Hero phenomenon. Adam Clayton has stated that they would like to be "in there" if the arrangement was correct. "...we felt some of the compromises weren't what we wanted. That could change. I love the idea that that's where people are getting music and we'd love to be in that world. What The Beatles have done, where the animation is much more representa...

hey all!so, i'm really excited. lately i've been sick with the writer's common cold, and everyone who's ever played around with words knows that writer's block is a big pain in the ass. well, tonight while messing around with midi, i found a really cool melody. simple, but catchy none-the-less. it hints all-time qb somewhat, which is okay, but with anything i write, i have this fear that it mig...

The keeper of the city keys puts shutters on the dreamsI wait outside the pilgrim's door with insufficient schemesThe black queen chants a funeral marchThe cracked brass bells all ringTo summon back the Fire WitchTo the Court of the Crimson King.

Even though the Rush experience I wrote about before really started everything, the second moment I want to share would eventually have more of an impact than any other thing in my life, musically speaking. I had been a Rush freak for many years, through high school and well into college, but other than that I hadn't branched out too much. I had discovered other bands, like Pink Floyd, The Ta...

1984's "Three Of A Perfect Pair" was the last of three records the reunited band of Tony Levin, Robert Fripp, Adrian Belew, and Bill Bruford put out (Discipline and Beat being the other two) and tellingly, it was simultaneously the band's most commercial and most abstract record of the three. Side one was (for the most part) Crimsonized pop songs. They even did a video for "Sleepless" which got...

......Three years ago today i signed on to the MOG after reading posts for a couple of days. I knew nothing, zero, zilch...about computers. My daughter had set me up with a password on her laptop & had taught me how to search for things.........Bob Dylan was the first search i did & somehow in all the thousands & thousands of entries that just boggled my mind..i clicked on one & i was reading ...

...This song, from King Crimson's early mid-period phase, is as frenzied as a plitical party tryin to rush through legislation that no one has read.........By This Time Robert Fripp had it all figured out.....his frenzied short circuit guitar buzz would soon morph into Frippatronics....But with each successive release we became more convinced we'd heard it all before 60 % of Americans believ...

.....There's something happening here......The Grassroots opposition to Obamacare is scaring the bejesus out of the left wing of The Democrat Party. As Congress is in recess Senators & Representatives are finding hostile resistance to Obamacare throughout a broad swath of the body politic. In state after state, "town meeting" after town meeting, the people are letting their voices be heard. ...

Back in the mid 80's I started reading a magazine that focused only on CD's, ICE. It was aimed at music junkies, audiophiles, and early CD adopters. I got it for the release dates they would list months in advance, so I could drool over first time on CD stuff, but I did read the articles as well, and King Crimson was often a topic.Reviewers and Fans of King Crimson never held back on how great...

As I head out to party my boney ass off I have high expectations (nyuk, nyuk). At my parties music is always an integral part of the proceedings. Oh, the first half of the day will be a fairly typical PG rated cookout with burgers, dogs, & chips & stuff. (Chilli, chicken wings, myriad salads, beans, rabbitt, & who knows what folks will bring) But as the day blends into late afternoon, ear...
