It could be worse, CP...you could have Dr. Szell as your dentist:

Seriously? Oh man, you don't know what you're missing. Most Asian restaurants and markets I frequent have the fiery red elixir on hand. If you've any Asian places in your neck of the woods, chances are they have bottles of the Red Rooster for you to try. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sriracha

Don't mess with the Little Monsters!

Well, if that happens Ally, you could always borrow LZG's car bra. Good luck with the surgery. 15 months? Damn.

A trio of early January shows in honour of Jimmy's birthday. 1st: January 5, 1969 Whisky a Go Go, LA 2nd: January 9, 1970 Royal Albert Hall, London 3rd: January 7, 1973 New Theatre, Oxford

There are two things I NEVER run out of in my kitchen: SRIRACHA and TABASCO!!! I may run out of milk. I may run out of eggs. I may run out of butter. I may even run out of beer and wine. But I always, always make sure I have plenty of Sriracha and Tabasco in the pantry. In fact, I just finished sploshing some Sriracha in my duck curry and rice for lunch.

7.17.77 Seattle Kingdome I've had the DVD of the Seattle Kingdome show for years and because of that, never felt the need to get the show on audio cd(or vinyl, if it even exists). But because of Sue's recommendation, I picked up the Godfatherecords "Conquering Kingdome" the other day at the swap meet. I'm putting it on now.

Well, there's the problem right there..."Rocky Horror" is best viewed with audience participation. It's not meant to be seen in class or at home on DVD. It's one of the classic original "Midnight Movie" phenomenons. If you ever get out to L.A., you have a standing invitation to attend the midnight showing at the Nuart Theatre with me. BTW, your language is fine.

You hate mushrooms and "Rocky Horror"? That's it...the romance is OFF!

He was alright in "Rocky Horror Picture Show".

Duh. That's never been questioned.

Gave another listen to "Devils Banquet" 5.17.75 Earl's Court this morning(major write-up forthcoming in the Live section) and now, post-breakfast, am listening to the EVSD "Bonzo's Birthday Party" Soundboard:

If planted hasn't already posted the recipe(she's been ill, the poor dear), I'll shoot you a PM after work.

Listening to my new Led Zeppelin bootlegs.

Never got around to having dinner last night, so I am ravenous this morning. Had some chili leftover from the weekend so I made a chili omelet with a little Monterey jack cheese and onions tucked inside with the chili. Topped with a dab of sour cream...and Tabasco. Half a cantaloupe on the side. No taters. Two strong cups of joe. Three glasses of water. Which reminds me...where the hell is Mr. White? Hope he's not lost up on the ski slopes. You might know them as 7-layer cookies, Virginia. According to my friend in the South, they're known down there as 7-layer cookies. I hadn't heard of them by either name until planted enlightened me. In order of placement in the pyrex: unsalted butter, graham cracker crumbs, chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, chopped walnuts, sweetened condensed milk, shredded coconut. Here's before and after photos I took making them recently:

A woman after my own heart(or stomach). Welcome to the thread, by the way!

Sue, Watchtower's "Coherence" is even better than EVSD's version of 6-27-77. Yeah, I've found EVSD can be hit & miss, like most labels. For instance, I think Godfatherecords versions of the 2.12.75 NY and 2.16.75 St. Louis and 3.11.75 Long Beach soundboards are better than EVSD's. But then, EVSD's "Maximum Destroyer" and "Listen to This, Eddie - Christmas Edition" are the best versions I've heard of these oft-booted shows. NP: 5.17.75 Earl's Court. Just got this the other day...it's the "Devils Banquet" title on Power Chord. I have never heard this show before now...the 5.18, 5.24 & 5.25 being the only Earl's Courts I had previously. First night of the five night stand. I like the fact that it's an audience tape...you get more a sense of the vibe as soundboards can sound so anti-septic and cold. I'm only on the first CD(there's 4 discs), and on IMTOD...so full impression of the performance will have to come later.

Yep...that's why they looked so spiffy. That's why you should just worry about pleasing yourself first.

^^^ Toxic sugar piss.

Don't forget the Mountain Dew.

Those are some of my faves, too. The Montreal '75 is by the Phoenix Records guys in NSW in Australia...I also have their Seattle '73 release which also has a Giger cover. Sue...you are never too young for vinyl.

Sorry Nutrocker...I get so busy sometimes I forget to keep track of my PMs...I just checked and yes, I did get your PMs. Thank you very much!

I've been intrigued by the Pontiac show ever since the news was announced in 1977 that it set another attendance record and from seeing photos of the gig in Creem magazine. I was fascinated by the big bulky cameras on stage. But hearing some of the other lackluster April '77 shows lessened my desire to hear Pontiac after awhile. But Sue, dear Sue...your wonderful and well-stated post has renewed my interest in Pontiac even higher. There haven't been too many April-May '77 shows that I consider essential listening...even the Cleveland shows suffer in comparison to the June shows. But after reading your post, Sue, I'm going to put Pontiac on my to-do list.

Yes, that is correct. And it was because the Saturday 6-25 gig was so good and they played a couple different songs(IMTOD and CB) that I didn't sell my tix for 6-26 and 6-27 and went ahead and attended the shows even though it was exhausting. But it is also precisely why I it is double the pain that I didn't go to the 6-22 concert...of all the ones I went to, I missed the ONE night of the six that they played both OTHAFA and IMTOD!!! Yes, I realize it may seem bad form and a trifle greedy to complain about missing one Led Zeppelin concert when I still was able to see the other five that week, but there it is. I can't help it.

I don't know if it's because of this new "Gangster Squad" movie with Nick Nolte, Ryan Gosling and Sean Penn that's coming out, but the American Cinematheque has scheduled 3 nights of out-and-out gangster classics this weekend: Friday: The Godfather Saturday: Goodfellas and Miller's Crossing Sunday: The Godfather Part II
