The King Crimson Live in Mexico City file is EXCELLENT!!! It's a MUST HAVE!
I was able to download it from http://drm.goestoeleven.com/wm/dgm/
You will also need the LATEST VERSION of Windows Media Player to listen to it.
In addition, you must go into Media Player and make sure it's the default
application for listening to the file types '.wma'. (My computer was defaulting
to Winamp)
Then, to add insult to injury, the first time you try to open the file, your
computer will contact the web site that you downloaded from to verify licensing.
After that, it should play fine.
It's kind of a bummer that the file isn't broken down into separate tracks. It's
just the whole concert, but it's King Crimson at their absolute finest.
I guess it's time to crack Microsoft's watermark on these file types so we can
finish the production of files like these.
I recommend this file HIGHLY. Even if you're on a modem, spend the 2 hours to
download it. It's well worth the effort.

My parents didn't play all that much recorded music when I was growing up,
probably because the turntable on their old stereo was shaky and it would
skip when my sister or I ran boisterously down the hall. If a record were
playing, we were always told to walk quietly, so as not to make it skip.
Needless to say, I much preferred it when my mother would play live piano
music (Mozart's "Turkish Rondo" and Bach's "Italian Concerto" were two
favorites, and in the early 70's she went through a Scott Joplin phase)
because I could (and did!) dance wildly around the room. My father liked to
listen to the Metropolitan Opera on Saturday afternoons, which wasn't to my
taste as a young child -- too many upset-sounding voices -- so I tried to be
outside when that was on, which made it a surprise to me a few years later
when I was taken to see Mozart's _The Magic Flute_ and loved it! He had
played saxophone in high school but didn't have one, so my live music
memories from him when growing up are primarily of his booming bass voice
singing in church. He loved to put in extra grace notes on some of the hymn
tunes -- "O Quanta Qualia" is a 17th-century French tune that lends itself
to that treatment -- and so I came to enjoy vocal grace notes long before I
ever heard the middle part of "On-Reflection."

My father was a cantor, so there was a lot of music. As soon as I could
play piano, I was accompanying my father with various classical music. He
regularly played WQXR-FM, a New York City classical music station on the
weekends. Our first record player was an RCA Victor Golden Throat Victrola,
a unit which was a TV set. Under the tube was a drawer with the record
player inside, which you would pull out, and load with records. After a few
years, my brother and sister would also be playing. We all played piano, my
brother and I practiced our woodwinds, and my sister her flute. In 1965 we
got our first stereo. My mother would play her Here Come Barbara!
(Streisand) record during the day. She only listened to that one
record. Those were the days..... -David Eric

Spock's Beard/Live at the Whiskey and Nearfest - Recorded at the Whiskey
in
Los Angeles, May 11, 1999 and Nearfest, Moravian College, Bethlehem, PA,
June 27, 1999. "Well, here it is....the real deal. These recordings were
made straight off the board with no mixing or overdubs after the fact (we
would have fixed 'em but the multi-track tapes were screwed up!) So
we're
stuck with what we acutally did! Oh My God!!! The only changes that were
made were a few edits and some EQ, other than that, these are the
unadulterated performances by Spock's Beard and soundman."
Spock's Beard/Live at the Whiskey ....VHS-NTSC and PAL - Spock's Beard
from
a live performance videotaped at the Whiskey in Los Angeles, May 11, 1999
Neal Morse/Neal Morse - Neal says of his new album: "It was a lot of fun
doing it, but, scary.....you know? It was weird not having anyone to
bounce
any ideas off of. But it was a gas playing all the parts. I love to
play....I'll admit it! You can expect to hear a wide variety of styles.
There's piano oriented pop songs, guitar heavy ones like Tom Petty or
something, some Spock's sounding stuff....all in all there's 7 regular
songs
and one 23:00 long progressive thing called "A Whole Nother Trip."
Actually
I just said that for people who are listening to the album and haven't
heard
Spock's Beard....for Spock's Beard fans it won't be a surprise! It's a
really cool album, if I do say so myself, and I hope people dig it."

Hi, fellow O-Rers,
thanks for pointing me to the right website to download the KC Mexico show.
However, another problem occured - maybe you encountered it, too.
After downloading the show, I wanted to play it - however, I got an error
message that there was some problem with the licensing. No idea what that was
all about.
Any ideas? Any help?
I'm starting to get pissed off with that show before having heard one note.
Yours,

Hail all,
As we all know, Mike Keneally is a GG fan as evidenced by his participation
in Giant Tracks.
I was surfing his web site, specifically checking out his diary from the
1988 Zappa Tour when I came upon this entry talking about a post-concert
night/morning at the hotel:
"We talked about Gentle Giant and I played a bunch of Gentle Giant songs on
guitar while Scott (Martin) dug on it"
Not incredibly noteworthy, but it's always fun to see GG mentioned in a
casual conversation taking for granted that the reader will know who the
hell GG is.

Being a facial hair afficionado, I don't wish to detract from any CD sales,
but for the curious, the NEARfest gig from which part of this CD is culled
can be heard at http://www.studiomlive.com. They also have a show very
close (May 17) to the other one here.
Speaking of facial hair, I trimmed my goatee a couple of weeks ago, and
ashamedly I forgot to notify you good people of the momentous occasion.
Very sorry for the belated Facial Hair Update, and I'll try to keep future
FHUs timely! Especially the upcoming (only 2 months away!) traditional
autumnal transition to full beard...

The thing that blew me away was the tune the flautist was playing: the

New World Symphony. The tone sounded just like a human whistling.
