Nice retort superfreakie.  :clap:

Not really.  He has shown no conception of my point, and why I think she's a poor choice.  His argument is tangental and has nothing to actually do with my point.

He is displaying that he thinks she's a qualified candidate, and I'm not disputing that at all.  I too think she is qualified.

However, there are many other more appropriate choices who are qualified.
She is not, in my eyes, an appropriate choice.

The politics involved in choosing her as the nominee are definitely nauseating to me, and exemplify why Obama is clearly not as awesome of a president as I thought he would be in Springfield, Ill. when he announced his candidacy.


This is extremely long for a post, but before refuting, please read it in its entirety. Sorry in advance for typos or confusing grammar but I have a real job that requires me to write accurately and editing drives me nuts, so please bear with it.

Fauxpax, you are mislead in asserting that my response to your post had "nothing" to do with your "point", that I lack "conception". You have strayed for two obvious reasons. First, it is in my opinion, that "qualified" is intricately linked with the all encompassing nature of the word "appropriate". Without hesitation, when nominating a justice of the Supreme Court, one may conclude that the more one is qualified, reciprocally the more appropriate one's candidacy becomes. Second, my failure to appropriately address your argument in the manner you might have wished does not reside in a lack of my scholarship but more so due to the unsubstantiated argument you have poorly presented. You have declared her a leftist and yet have provided no examples concerning her body of work. You have stated that "there are many other more appropriate choices", yet when asked to name them you said you had to do research. Therefore you made a statement with the assumption that it was accurate yet had no basis to back it. That being said, I will attempt to reconstruct your argument for refutation's sake. Let us see where we come out.     

Quote from: fauxpaxfauxreal on July 13, 2009, 09:50:16 PM
She's a leftist
Quote from: fauxpaxfauxreal on July 13, 2009, 02:39:54 PM
It's almost like the Administration has basically said "we want to make a hardcore leftist pick for all the wrong reasons but she'll get in because no one can afford to block a Latina..."

In the second quote, you have implicitly stated that you believe this woman holds extreme liberal ideas. I have extrapolated this with a certain measure of confidence seeing as no one in the present administration has come forth to declare that she is a "hardcore" leftist, and, as such, this must stem from your own personal interpretation of the facts that surround this nomination. But this begs the question, from what and where do you draw this conclusion and just what do you mean by "hardcore"? For, as I have aforementioned, it would be a stretch to issue such a declaration if based solely on her judicial decisions, which I might add should be the principal determining factor in her admission to the bench. 

I think, for this arguments sake, it is best we elucidate what is entailed by the far pole of the ideological left. For the general purpose of most political discussion concerning the subject, extreme left wing views most often manifest themselves as communist models of governance and industry and at worst complete anarchy. But this is the extreme, or what you might term as "hardcore" left. Now, admittedly, it is entirely possible that you have confused left of center as being "hardcore" leftist and as such I will grant you this slip. That in mind, onwards through the fog.

Concerning her position along the ideological spectrum of left and right, let us first examine her views on capitalism. While she has not explicitly declared where she stands, following her stint as a New York assistant district attorney she struck out a path as corporate litigator representing large international firms, specifically in the area of copyright infringement and intellectual property rights. So, concerning her potential for leftist ideas towards industry or capitalism, as a whole I think it is safe to say a leftist she is not.

In regards to her own personal convictions and where they may lie along the ideological spectrum, admittedly she is left of center, depending on interpretation, but hardly "hardcore". For example, while one may reference her stated beliefs that "lower-level crimes are largely products of the socioeconomic environment" as being a liberal construct, her position is deeply entrenched with experiential evidence. Anyone who works in justice, whether a judge, lawyer, police or social counselor, quickly realizes that the poor and uneducated commit an overwhelming majority of crimes. Seeing as socioeconomic disparity runs along racial lines which are rooted in complicated generations of oppression, her stated position regarding crime has led to accusations of sympathizing, or at worst excusing, non-white crime. But again, most of these cries are heard from those over zealous Republicans and conservative  pundits stretching reality, for her legal decisions as an assistant district attorney as well as judge are incredibly fair minded and balanced. And should you doubt the veracity of my claims, both Republicans and Democrats have junior investigative teams who have created a wealth of statistical information concerning her decisions. This can all be found by perusing their respective web sites. Do it and then come back to me with stats concerning this supposed left leaning bias.

Let us now tackle that bastion of right wing ignorance and stupidity, 2nd amendment rights. It goes without saying that most people who come from inner cities support restrictions on 2nd amendment rights, while rural communities are replete with shameless gun advocacy. I say shameless, for do you really need concealed weapons in your state parks, or to be able to hunt rabbits with automatic assault rifles. Now, while the aforementioned is unquestionably and unabashedly facetious on my part, unfortunately the assault rifles that our friendly farmer assures us he has a right to are also the same weapons that are smuggled across the Mexican border to not only fuel a deadly drug war, but as well to destabilize a civil government perched on the U.S. border. And while this war is waged, its ripple conflicts are being fought throughout U.S. inner cities armed by the same arms dealers who will, much like Mexico, soon leave the local police outmatched and outgunned. So, as a Latina who grew up in the Bronx to then spend five years as an assistant D.A., do you not think her perspective on gun control will be somewhat skewered along liberal or, what I prefer to term in this case, progressive lines. Now Fauxpax, I understand you have not brought up gun rights but seeing as you have decried her as a "hardcore" leftist, gun rights obviously had to be covered. I will refrain from touching on abortion rights for obvious reasons.     

{On a side note, and please permit this digression; why is it so hard for Americans to understand that the more guns you have in circulation, the more gun deaths you will reap. Every nation in western society has figured this out but you. Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot, its not guns that kill people, its people that kill people. And yes, I also liberally omitted that you just might have to depose a future dictator, although a little Michigan militia is hardly enough when running up against the U.S. military.}                 

After having served as an assistant D.A. and corporate litigator, her legal career shifted to what I shall term as "community" law, practicing for a time period out of her apartment. This phase is often highlighted by conservatives as being the epicenter of her social agenda and thus the birth place of her leftist moniker. {As an aside, I always find it funny how conservatives rail against social projects yet uphold the family and community as being the foundation of their ideology.} While practicing this "community" law, Sotomayor fought cases involving police brutality, hiring practices, campaign finance etc...., all centered in the New York area. Now although I understand these avenues of litigation might be considered leftist by some, there are few on the right who would be willing to grant these issues as the exclusive property of the liberal establishment. Significant in this shift however, is that Sotomayor was purposely gravitating from one legal arena to the next and in the process developing an incredibly broad understanding of what law, specifically American law, truly is, its incredible beauty.

Which such a broad command of the law it is no surprise that she was soon nominated to the bench. Concerning her judgeship and whether she is leftist, I will borrow the following from wiki but it is sourced and verified, although I have removed the footnotes to facilitate reading:

"Sotomayor generally kept a low public profile as a district court judge. She showed a willingness to take anti-government positions in a number of cases, and during her first year in the seat, she received high ratings from liberal public-interest groups. Other sources and organizations regarded her as a centrist during this period. In criminal cases, she gained a reputation as for tough sentencing and was not viewed as a pro-defense judge. A Syracuse University study found that in such cases, Sotomayor generally handed out longer sentences than her colleagues, especially when white-collar crime was involved. Fellow district judge Miriam Goldman Cedarbaum was an influence upon Sotomayor in adopting a narrow, "just the facts" approach to judicial decision-making.

As a trial judge, she garnered a reputation for being well-prepared in advance of a case and moving cases along a tight schedule.[17] Lawyers before her court viewed her as plain-spoken, intelligent, demanding, and sometimes somewhat unforgiving; one said, "She does not have much patience for people trying to snow her. You can't do it".  (WIKI) 

As is obvious sometimes she was left, sometimes center and sometimes right depending on the nature of the case but more importantly she is not a "hardcore" leftist, let alone leftist.     

Fauxpax, while I would like to spend more time proving to you that she is a centrist, I just don't have the time and I wish to continue refuting other parts of your argument. However, that being said, I think I have provided you with many avenues of information that you may follow up on your own time should you wish to try to refute the above, for I am sure I have left some gaping omissions. I would recommend you start at the statistics that both parties have gathered concerning her rulings and decisions. Now, let us continue onwards through the fog, for the following argument you present requires less, shall we say, assumption.   

Quote from: fauxpaxfauxreal on July 13, 2009, 09:50:16 PM
She may be qualified, but I can't think of a less desirable choice that would be acceptable to the general public.

I am struggling to understand this above statement. First, a large segment of your population is Hispanic, with California soon to be majority Hispanic, with Texas to follow. Second, many women would love to see another woman on the bench and this fact should not be underestimated. Third, many democrats/liberals understand that diversity on the bench is a good thing (this I will defend a little later on, so hang tight). So which segment of the general public are you talking about. Here are the most recent polls by Gallup and CBS

Here's a Gallup Poll taken  July 10-12:   Would you like to see the Senate vote in favor of Sotomayor serving on the Supreme Court, or not?
Vote In Favor -- 53%
Not Vote In Favor -- 33%
Unsure   --13% 
         
And a CBS News Poll. July 9-12, 2009.  Should the Senate vote to confirm Sonia Sotomayor as a justice of the U.S. Supreme Court, or vote against Sotomayor, or can't you say?
Vote to Confirm-- 30%
Vote Against --  14%
Can't Say -- 52%
  Unsure  --   4%

Seems to me that the general public disagree with you or, sadly, are not educated enough about the subject to make a decision.

Okay, glad we agree here. But..............

Quote from: fauxpaxfauxreal on July 14, 2009, 01:55:11 PM
However, there are many other more appropriate choices who are qualified.

As I said previously, you threw this out there to support your argument and yet when Hicks asked who, you replied you will need to research circuit judges. Good thing we are not in a court of law, cause you would be a laughing stock right about now. P.S. Don't try to defend a doctorate or masters with your philosophy of randomly drawing conclusions without support, the outcome will not be kind. Now, this is not to say that there are not better choices, but simply that you cannot make that assertion without something to back your ass up.

Even worse in this argument is that you have stated that "there are MANY MORE". "Many", really, "many". I don't think so. This woman has successfully practiced multiple types of law, fought her way up through a white, male dominated system by winning scholarships the entire way because her single mother could not afford her Ivy league education. "Sotomayor graduated with an A.B., summa cum laude, from Princeton University in 1976, and received her J.D. from Yale Law School in 1979, where she was an editor at the Yale Law Journal". Then practices in nearly every type of significant law, big firms all the way to her single private business and then adjudicates for fifteen years. Right, I forgot, people like this are a dime a dozen, just waiting in the wings. "Many" you say, really, there are "many", really......un-fucking-believable.

She is not, in my eyes, an appropriate choice.

However, had you done some research and composed your argument with your mind, which by the way is color blind and does not see sex, you might have understood just how awesome, in all senses of the word, this woman truly is. But there is confusion in this above statement because it is possible to conjoin it with your following statement, although both were detached by a paragraph and therefore I am not sure if the above quote was to be interpreted in a vacuum or not. If it were though, it is impossible to refute because "in my eyes" is a subjective opinion that you have not supported with information. But if it is tied to the statement below, and thus supported, at least it gives you a leg to stand your ignorance on. I will assume it is the latter, not only to prop you up but also to allow me to defend the "awesomeness" of your president.   

Quote from: fauxpaxfauxreal on July 14, 2009, 01:55:11 PM
The politics involved in choosing her as the nominee are definitely nauseating to me, and exemplify why Obama is clearly not as awesome of a president as I thought he would be in Springfield, Ill. when he announced his candidacy.

Here is the conundrum behind picking a justice. It will always be steeped in political posturing but it works itself out because your forefathers incorporated this understanding in its design; an understanding couched in the knowledge that the institution would serve as the guardian of one of the most beautifully written "living" documents known to man, the American Constitution. The knowledge that this document would be tugged and pulled by two poles who would each have their turn at controlling its direction, yet forever patiently prodding its progression with checks and balances. I get goosebumps just thinking about the constitutions power (however, it does lose its luster when you piss all over it, not that I am mentioning any names).   

To return to your statement, you obviously believe that this position should have gone to the best person, and not the best woman or more specifically the best Latina woman. You are wrong because you have missed the importance of a subtle yet very powerful word, "diversity". Let us assume that we can gather the best legal minds in the United States, those who would be the optimum candidates to fill the nine seats on the bench and we administer a test to see who is the best. And, low and behold, the top nine scores are all white men. Is this the best bench? Well it might be if we could truly do away with human bias; that we could judge without reference to our life experience. But we cannot. And yet, at every nomination for the Supreme Court this is what is asked of the candidates with the knowledge that it is a bullshit question, and everyone fucking knows it. It is as ridiculous as the statement that judges do not make law, they interpret it. Everyone knows that in interpreting American law, precedent is set and thus law is created. So while your executive and both houses produce law exclusively, the judiciary can strike it or move it in a certain direction. So while they do not write it, they definitely shape it, which is you allow, is a step in creating.     

We are not the same.

Consider this. Who starts wars? Men. Who commits the majority of violent acts in our society? Men. Who makes up the majority of the prison population? Men.

Men and women have different genetic code. This cannot be disputed.

Men and women think and behave differently. This cannot be disputed.

But the bench doesn't just interpret law for men, does it? No, it does for women as well. And yet while your population is divided 50/50 THERE IS ONLY ONE WOMAN ON THE BENCH. This is a farce.     

So, Obama had to nominate a woman. And not just to satisfy his electorate, but also because he is a constitutional scholar more than aware that the constitution is a living document whose interpretation is rooted not only in legal understanding but experience as well. Consider that all the rights that protect you today were laid out hundreds of years ago. Women' rights, gay rights, color rights, all staring you in the face but awaiting personal experience to draw them out. And slowly, over time, it has. Do you understand how incredible that is? Blows my mind.

So you need a woman. In fact, you need another two more women. But that is coming, as there are presently more women graduating from law school then men.       

So if you needed a woman, and I researched a lot of the potential female candidates, Sotomayor was by far one of, if not the most qualified and experienced candidate out there.

Now, as for being Hispanic. Because I spend a lot of time traveling and working in international forums, I have come to grasp that while we are all the same, needing shelter, food etc... our underlying idiosyncratic sympathies cannot be suppressed, no matter how hard we might try. Alito, Roberts and Thomas, all conservatives, have stated this empathy is important in their decision making, although they have been quick to add that it is a blanket effect that is not partial but instead applies to all that come before it. But look yourself in the mirror, do you truly see everyone as equal? No you don't, we are not God, whomever or however you interpret that concept (or not at all). And so, in acknowledgment of these failings, the bench must not only be equal in sex but must also be colored by those over whom it protects. This is the only way it can truly be fair and guide you. Sotomayor knew this, it is why she made that comment about a Latina woman, although taken radically out of context and yes, as she admitted today, poorly phrased. But, as I have just shown, the argument behind it is indisputable.

AND OBAMA FUCKING KNEW THIS, TOO BAD YOU DIDN'T. WELL, SO YOU'VE JUMPED HIS SHIP. NO LOSS, A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE JUMPED ON.

AND WAS THE DECISION POLITICAL, YES, BUT GUESS WHAT, HE'S A POLITICIAN.

The justice who follows Sotomayor should then be an Asian woman.   

One final note. Republican Lindsey Graham's cross was pretty sweet today. Especially when compared to his pathetic brethren who spouted the Republican script like robots.

No, not the sweet blawgger @ phishthinks. I'm talking about the 'Paug's own Mr Minor.
This whole deal goes back to January of this year.

Let's recap shall we?

Clifford Ball pre-Order is announced:
QuoteEveryone who pre-orders from Phish Dry Goods will receive a free Festival Souvenir Pack which includes two original Clifford Ball concert entry wristbands and a Clifford Ball balsa wood gilder. In addition to the wristbands and glider, we've got some great memorabilia from the Archives to hand out, so 1,500 random orders will also receive original Clifford Ball camping tickets, an original festival map, or satin sticky Clifford Ball backstage passes.

Quote from: rowjimmy on February 11, 2009, 02:51:30 PM
I'm in it for the glider.

In late February, the Clifford Ball preorders shipped but:

Ok, so apparently there was a limited supply, so not all preorders got one, right?

Wrong! Supply was not the issue. Dry Goods, instead of following through on their word to add these gliders to every Clifford Ball pre-order has continued to give them out like candy along with EVERY OTHER FREAKIN' ORDER.

My "Golgi Bonus" was the glider, and the sticker/postcard that I was supposed to get turned out to be the 3/6 ticket.

Random, but a sweet surprise to find.  :-)

careful.  there are people on this site that would kill for that glider.

They will sell for at least 75 each.  After fees it will be a 35 or 40 dollar profit plus a glider.  Of course, that is small cash, but not bad for about 15 minutes of "work".

What you don't realize is that people will commit murder for that glider.  People that, I assume, are currently making their way to your house....

Funny, I haven't seen rowjimmy posting much this morning.   :-D

Almost at Rip's place...

Mapquest sent me this crazy route.

Must

Glider


You get the idea...

Now, Mr Minor could have gotten upset at the so-called-stalking.
He could have gotten pissed about the sitting in the car in front of his house on nights and weekends.
He could even have called the cops that time he caught me rifling through boxes of Phish memorabilia in his garage.

But no.

A couple days ago, I received a PM from Mr Minor. I thought, for certain, that he was going to ask me to stop hanging out on his kids' swingset waiting for them to come out and play with the glider. Instead, this is what I got.

Alright dude, I have something in my possession that you may be interested in.  You can speculate what it may be, but I will refrain from telling you, only so it adds to the suspense and excitement.
PM me your address and I will send it your way if you are interested.

Four Weeks Left So:

Let's us review (further), shall we?


Quote from: Gumbo72203 on October 01, 2008, 09:46:49 PM
my guess is:

The Curtain With, to start things off in the way they should have ended.
A new song, to show that they have new stuff.
Get Back On The Train, well...  for obvious reasons. 
Fluffhead/YEM/Divided Sky, to show that they actually give a shit this time. 
2001, because of what August said about a 10-minute intro before Fish drops the beat
Glide, because that would be cool because of the lyrics.

these all make sense, but I'm really pinning it on a new song or Fluffhead. 


Quote from: Gumbo72203 on October 02, 2008, 12:07:00 AM
it'll actually probably be Stash, or something.  or Terrapin Station > Ghost > Colonel Forbin's Ascent* > Jennifer Dances > Fly Famous Mockingbird

* - with narration about the 'worst song we ever wrote'

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on October 02, 2008, 10:04:12 AM
How about an I Am Hydrogen opener?  THAT would be way cool and unexpected.  I Am Hydrogen > Weekapaug Groove > Mike's Song > Simple > Prince Caspian.  Inverted Mikes Groove!

Quote from: McGrupp on October 02, 2008, 02:27:49 PM
New song. Please.


ill throw my money on this, even though I'm sure I'll be disappointed, unless its completely fucking SICK.

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on October 07, 2008, 05:16:02 PM
you know........  I think I like the Makisupa opener.  They opened the Went with it; even though I think this is one of the worst choices for a show opener, it would make sense here.  It would bring it full circle from the "woke up in the morning....  in Whitehall"  to "woke up in the morning.....   in rehab"  or "woke up inthe morning....   in Phish/in Hampton" or something.

hmm....   

i wonder how much they will factor that in? (the crowd level).  It would make sense, seeing as its kind of what they did with the first reunion, with Piper: slow, quiet lead in because everybody is drowning it all out anyway.  This is what makes me think, now, that they WONT do Tube, or something like that.  Actually, as I was playing drums the other day, I thought about hwo PERFECT Ghost would be. 

i think i'm calling Ghost now.  WITH loops!!! 

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on October 09, 2008, 03:12:47 PM
ACTUALLY, I know what song they'll be opening with.  Its all so clear now.

Think about it...   Okay.  Its going to be loud as all fuck in there.  That means a song that takes a little bit to get going, ala Piper in MSG.  But it'll also need to be something that builds to a fast, burst-out rock-hose type sorta thing, kind of like Piper, with how it builds up and gets really fast.  But then also...  it'll need to be reflective, and appropriate for the context of everything. 



Come on...  think about it.  What song has all 3 of these? 






still stumped?








oh come on....  THINK HARDER!!!!







okay, want me to tell you?







fine, i'll tell you:








MAZE!!!





Its perfect. 

Verse:
The overhead view is of me in a maze.
And you see what I'm hunting a few steps away.
But I take a wrong turn, and I'm on the wrong path.
And the people all watching enjoy a good laugh.
Embarrassed with failure, I try to reverse
The course that my tread had already traversed.


Verse:
So doing the trauma engulfing my dreams
Invaded through what was an unguarded seam.
The torrent of helplessness swept me away.
To the cavern of shame and the hall of dismay.

Inside me a voice was repeating the phrase:
"You've lost it. You'll never get out of this maze."

Bridge/Outro:
You'll never get out of this maze




Quote from: Gumbo72203 on October 09, 2008, 04:11:11 PM
i think they might open with Slave now...  its got a slow, quiet intro, and is a great jam vehicle.

I just feel like they're not going to be doing Harry Hood, 

there will be a Hood encore in Hampton '09.

that was taken entirely out of context.  Of course they'll play Harry Hood.  I was meaning just not as an opener to any set. 





edit:  I could see Simple being an opener.  But I definitely don't see them blasting out with David Bowie.  Although they might.  I mean, it would work for the occasion, but unless they're spending 5 hours in the practice room 5 days a week for the 2 months beforehand, then I wouldn't want them to warm up with Bowie. 


My official list of possibilities:

Maze
Ghost
2001
Simple
new song
Slave To The Traffic Light

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on October 10, 2008, 09:46:27 PM
Yes, I'm tossing out YEM and Curtain With.  They won't open with those.  Its just weird, and too....  predictable.  And thats teh LAST thing Phish would be, is predictable.

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on October 12, 2008, 05:04:54 PM
well, actually...  Phish being unpredictable could mean that they'll be predictable.  The predictable thing to do would be to open with YEM or the Curtain With.  OORRRRR!!!!   YEM > Curtain With (out of nirvana space) > YEM.  THAT would be fucking DIZZANKKK

but yeah.  I think they might end up doing the unpredictable thing and be predictable.  How odd would that be?

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on October 24, 2008, 11:12:47 PM
opening song predictions:

Ghost
Divided Sky
Maze
new song
2001


Quote from: Gumbo72203 on November 04, 2008, 08:44:10 PM
how do you all feel about a Brother opener? 

Now THAT would fuck shit up realllllll quick



edit:   This just got me thinking....    what are the songs that you think would make people go apeshit the most.  Like, yeah...  okay...  a Ghost or YEM opener would be awesome, but I think there are certain songs that would make people bug more than others.

my list:

Halley's Comet
Tube
Brother
Buried Alive
Mike's Song
Colonel Forbin's Ascent
Divided Sky
Mango Song

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on November 26, 2008, 06:46:53 PM
actually, I've been thinking that Character Zero is a highly likely choice for first song.  Its simple, so the guys can warm up to playing, with a big Trey solo.  And then the lyrics are kind of relevant....




So... in summary:


Quote from: blatboom on October 01, 2008, 09:51:54 PM
you just guessed the whole catalog, Nostradamus.   :-D



That covered October 1 - November 26, 2008.

Now we venture forth through December and January...


Quote from: Gumbo72203 on December 01, 2008, 11:41:43 PM
wow.  i feel honored.  I...  yeah.  haha. 

anyway, today at work I thought about how great Bathtub Gin would be.  I think Trey would go for that, because it totally takes the focus off of him, with Page's discordant crazy cascades of piano quirkiness.  I really don't think they'll go there, though. 

As much as all of the songs I've talked about would be great, I really still think Maze is my number one call.  That, or Ghost.  or Tube. 

actually...  Tube could work real well:  an asteroid crashed and nothing burned.  Phish as asteroid.  It crashed, and nothing burned. 

or they might just do Piper all over again.  Its already got hiatus-ending set placement status... 


so really, i guess my main final list (as of right now) is:

Maze
Piper
Ghost
Tube
Chalkdust (which is actually my number 2 choice)

also note that these are not MY personal picks of what i'd want. 


.....but watch them come pull fucking Divided Sky

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on December 02, 2008, 11:06:20 PM
thats what makes me thing they'll do, like, Maze and THEN The Curtain With.   

embarrassed with failure, I try to reverse the course that my tread had already traversed...

or Curtain With > Maze.

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on December 06, 2008, 03:28:04 PM
ehh...   i don't think it'll be Down With Disease. 

Well, actually....  thinking about the first lines, it could totally make sense.  that, and it gives the spotlight to Gordon at the beginning, which would be cool.

Quote from: Gumbo72203 on January 02, 2009, 12:53:09 PM
yeah.....   

i mean honestly, the most likely picks i think are Chalkdust, 2001, a new song, or Maze.

























and YEM.   









































and Ghost













































or Piper, but they could also come out with something totally gnarly like a McGrupp or Mike's Song > Gamehendge > Weekapaug Groove. 


or Mango song would be sick. 



but you know i just HAD to make this post the way I made this post to be.  it couldn't have not been not any other possible way at all.  See, i need to get started on practicing for post of the year for 2009.  i mean, every day counts right?  Like, its not like i can slack off at all and expect to still be expected to be the winner of the post of the year for calendar year 2009.  Its like the anti-unrepelling force......

I was actually thinking about this again the other day, and another song popped into my head that is a totally legit addition to my main final list (for right now), and that song is POSSUM.

Think about it.  They could draaaaag the intro out forever, to get the crowd's ape-shit out of the way before the song hits.  And its simple, so they dont have worry about technicality so much, because they're all going to be nervous and excited as shit. 


So, my updated main final list, for right now is (in no particular order):

Maze
Possum
Chalkdust
Piper


I removed Ghost, because I dont think they'll do that.  It would make sense, Trey could loop-out while everyone goes nuts, and the band could gradually build into the groove.  I removed Tube, also, because I dont think they'll do anything that they can slam-bang into.



Slim, why don't you think any of those other songs have a chance of being played in the first set/show?  I'm still standing by my assertion that Wolfmans' will be in the first set.
