..got a nice version from the Dead.

The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a reflector, that is, the mind should give
an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.

I am, but Tufts wisely put spring break over St patty's day. D'oh! Either way, I'm going to be up in
Killington gettin' mah ski on (well, ok, getting my skis on and riding, but you know what I mean!)

I've got a couple friends that are really into flogging molly and the Dropkick murphys...
good music.

Often, it's whatever I've been rehearsing (a painless way to memorize), or perhaps it's the CDs that
my wife has loaded in the car--lately that's been the "Mannheim Steamroller does Disney tunes" that
I got her for Christmas.

That song is sick. Ever read the translation of it? It's not a children's song. Not that the London
bridge song is any better.

mmm... Coldplay. I like them alright, but if they had a lot more of a sense of humor they'd be
Cracker. If they had a lot more talent, they'd be Radiohead.

Hahaha, sounds like all the coldplay battling on alt.music.dave-matthews .... Ants Marching has a
sweet beat to ride to by the way, among others.

On the way to every ride I would hear that Eminem song (na,na,na,na, na,na,na) on the radio. During
the ride it would go through my head in an endless loop until I finally switched stations before
rides. Other than that negative experience any number of songs.

Why would people on a Dave Matthews Band newsgroup be talking about Coldplay? I can't see (or hear)
the connection.

They talk about radiohead all the time too. Actually, about 60% of the posts are off topic...
kinda funny :)

Hell, why the hell are we talking about Coldplay?

Meeow! I wasn't really a fan of their Parachutes album, but I quite like their new album - 'Clocks'
has especially been floating my boat the last couple of weeks.

As for Radiohead, I'm a big fan and 'The Bends' has to rate as one of my all time favourite albums.

Who are Cracker? I'm guessing they haven't hit this side of the Atlantic yet.

Uhhhmm, 'here we go round the mulberry bush'........

Shaun aRe - sometimes 'what shall we do with the drunken sailor' or 'They're Red Hot' by RHCP (If
I'm lucky and overdosed on caffeine)......"I got a girl she's long and tall, sleeps in the kitchen
with her feets in the hall...."
