This Electric Phase Ain't No Teenage Craze...

A couple of cool ones sent our way by Buckeye.
Thanks man.
Two right good Schenker era UFO shows.Not perfect but very very good,similar quality.
And what a band UFO were (are).Heavy,melodic and to me underated musicianship.
The historical significance of the Palo Alto show is that it was Schenker's final show before he left,joined again,left again etc.
That concludes our uploads for today only so many covers I can make...But!...loads of stuff still on the back burner thanks to our contributors.
See Ya tomorrow.
Keep Rockin'

Iron Maiden's Gonna Get Ya...

Sent in by Buckeye and he says this,"One of the oldest (if not the oldest)Iron Maiden boots out there.Not the best quality by far ( it's an audience recording),but worth the download if you're a Maiden fan."

All That Jazz...

It's an audience recording and there's a fair bit of chitter chatter and some fluctuations here and there but I really enjoyed this.It's raw, it's Rock 'n' Roll.
Or Rawk And Roll if you prefer.
Thanks again to Buckeye for sharing this one with us.

That Next One

I realized recently that there is something about a quilt, that is entirely different from everything else that I sew, and not just how its made. But I regard a quilt as such a different event, it occupies my mind in a completely different way. I never know what I might be about to sew next, whether a skirt, or a bag, or a pillow, or fixing Nicolas's backpack as I did yesterday with seconds to spare for him to catch the bus. But with a quilt, I seem to hover on it mentally for a while before I begin. I compose internally for a good while before setting out to make. I always know which one is next. It is an event- making one- isn't it? Small or large its a save the date taped to the wall in your mental creative space. Flipping back through my iphoto events this morning I came across this little one Eleni started early last summer. I realize only now where my triangular love of late began. With my genius little pumpkin. I have the girls' quilts almost all planned now (imaginatively), and have now decided that Nicolas and Joseph each need one too, as I am about to work on their rooms this weekend. I haven't done that for them yet- make a quilt- not specifically for them anyway. Where the time will come from I am not sure, but in my head the quilts are really beautiful already.

I am chomping at the bit to publish my free pattern for Patchwork Prism (sponsored by Janome), but we are waiting to get the video for it entirely edited, loaded and ready too, which is any moment now, literally. Hopefully for sure by next week. Do I keep saying that? But once that's up, I will also share more about teaching that pattern in Sacramento- such a lovely day.

On the quilting horizon, I do have two for-sures to share with you, near and far, that I am beyond thrilled with:

* I will be in Spokane in two weeks to teach the Patchwork Prism class again. Lovely Carrie of the wonderful TopStitch shop invited me a few months ago, and I've been excited ever since to see that part of the country! Come see me there if you can! I'll be doing a talk on Friday the 9th and then we'll start the workshop that evening, and continue into Saturday. Visit their website for more info! What should I do on Saturday night in Spokane? Any good restaurants to recommend? I was hoping to get to Portland as well, however I need to get my rear back home and work on my book.

* And this is a ways off, but I am so honored to be speaking and teaching at the inaugural conference and show, QuiltCon, about this very time next year which is presented by the Modern Quilt Guild. I think this show is such a necessary and wonderful retreat for all those who make these days, and I can't tell you how excited I am about not just the idea, but everything that it promises to be. Clickety on those links for more info.

Have a great weekend pals, whats your next quilt (dress, bag, pillow, meal, movie)?
xo, Anna

Fantastic sound on this one.Bryan Adams doing his thing.

Domo Arigato...

Here's one sent in by Rich.
Thanks man!!
I picked up the covers at Viva Les Bootlegs.
Here's the info Rich sent in.
The Beatles played two shows at Nippon Budokan Hall in Tokyo on 30th June and 01st July 1966.
The shows can be identified by the following clothing the Beatles wore during their performances.
During the first show, they wore dark charcoal colored jackets with dark red shirts (30th June-'66).
During the first show, Paul makes comments about his microphone just before I'm Down, and in the film the microphone keeps drooping and is insecure.
***[ This Is That Show ]
For the second show, they wore the light colored grey-almost white jackets with the same dark red shirts (01st July-'66).
Both shows were at 6:30 pm.
Both shows were professionally filmed and recorded.
The set list was identical for both shows.
The Beatles give inspired performances, and seem happy and jovial to be in Japan.
The tour began in Germany on 23rd June-'66 with three shows in Germany (23rd, 24th+25th), followed by these two shows in Japan.
On 04th July-'66 they performed in Manila, Philippines and there was huge press controversy.
This was at the height of controversy over John's remarks that the Beatles were more popular than Jesus Christ.
They didn't perform again until the August-'66 USA tour, which was their last.
A great piece of history....

Stills

Happy Birthday to my Mama! If you and Dad are up to your usual tricks, sometime later today he'll ask you what he bought you for your birthday, and then you'll go get it to show him because you purchased it last week. I bought myself a macro lens for your birthday. I hope you like it. I took these pictures for you because I know how much you like flowers and stitching and because I forgot to put your birthday card in the mail on Saturday and because I need to practice with this new lens because I know how you always want me to do my best at everything that I do. Thinking of you this morning and the amount of stillness required to take these compared to my regular zoom lens brought to mind the years you spent trying to keep me still. I hope it was worth it, I remain pretty wiggly. I am thinking I might need to by myself a mini tripod as an early Mother's Day gift to you.

I love you Mama, enjoy your day, you are to be celebrated.
xoxoxo anna & fam

Happy. Jumpy.

He has the happy and the jumpy down pat. I am sure the rest will come in time.

best morning lesson ever.

Welcome To Rock City...

A nice little set from Krokus.
Recent radio broadcast from BBC 6 music.But!!...It's originally a Friday Rock Show session from way back in 1980.

Here Comes Trouble...

The Bad Company posts continue thanks to Buckeye.
This time we're in 1992 and another FM broadcast.
This time from the Here Comes Trouble era.
I believe this was the last album of the Brian Howe period.So a few tracks from the album are played and it wouldn't be a Bad Co. show without some of the classics.
