LIVE! Pick O' Da Week.

In the time leading up to a new Studio release, I am going to create this thread as a dedication to all of the wonderful live gems that we are lucky enough to have because of the bands willingness to allow tapers and access to archive.org.

Every Monday and Friday, I (and others hopefully) will post one song for the day.  Two songs a week until the day that the new album is released.

The goal, is to gather together all of the special live songs that stand out above the rest.  Songs that mean something special to you.

I only have three rules.

#1  It must be a live song and obviously, it can't be anything that can be purchased. (OKONOKOS!, Acoustic Citsuoca, Official Bonnaroo recordings, etc.)

#2  Each song can be repeated only twice and preferably, if a song has already been included, then the second version should be something different.  In other words one would be Jim solo and one full band.  Any slight difference is OK with me.

#3 Only one posting is allowed for a particular Monday or Friday.  If you have a song you would like to post, you can come to this thread, pick a date that is still available and "call it" so when the day arrives, it is your day for posting.

If the album comes out in about six months it will allow for about 50 live gems to be placed in this thread.  

I am hoping everyone participates, because I want this live "mix" of songs to be a group effort, representing everyone's favorite live performances.  But if no one chips in, I will do it all myself!!!!

I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

Very nice idea with a very nice start! Bravo Bermuda!

AWESOME IDEA! Gives me something to look forward too.  :D

And that is a stunning version of Wordless, nice find!

Whoah, Hey, Hey, easy, no need to push and shove.  There are plenty of dates to go around. ;)

A couple other points I need to make.  Don't be afraid to post the obvious gems.  There are always newbies that can benifit from this thread.  And you don't have to do a sendspace link either.  Just point to the archive page, or even just refer to it with a date and song title.  Anyway, speaking of the obvious, here is the next pick for this fine Monday morning.

I don't know how to post something on sendspace. Can I just post a link to the archive? Or how can I post something? (I realize this has probably been asked thousands of times, but I feel a need to restate it for this thread)

The DARK

And I'm having trouble with sendspace. iTunes insists that I find the temporary folder that the song was in, even though it doesn't exist. What should I do?

Sure, you don't need to do the sendspace link.  I just added that for the convience of others.

However, it is a really convienent tool.  It's free and pretty self explanatory for signing up if I remember correctly.

Again though, just pointing to location on archive is good enough for me!

Hope you enjoy.

Prehaps you can highlight dates on your original post that are still open?

EDIT: Suddenly see you already did something like that.

I'd love to contribute when a date opens! I love this idea.
But seein you feels good, and its always understood.
That anything much sweeter would make me die.

BH,

This is a pretty neat idea, good shot. I will take june 1st unless he doesn't want the 28th. I already know exactly where I am going unless something completly blows my mind from one of the Vol. Archives.

Peace and Love,

Cody

Ps- are you making it out to Lolla?

It's yours!  I'm not going to make it to Lolla.  I already made a weekend trip plan for Roger Waters and I don't think I can get away with another one with my new baby.  Next summer, I am going to be at one festival that MMJ is involved in no matter what.  Mark it down!

Coolio foolio, I'll take the 8th O'June, or whatever, but preferably a Friday because I'll likely forget on a Monday!  
My jacket's gonna be cut slim and checked
