Hey all,
After a long trek through all my MP-cd’s (edit: a bunch of cd’s, a couple of first generation cdr’s and one (official) download, I really should say), I’ve whittled the choices down to 57 “definitely’s” and 45 “maybe’s”, totalling to (gulp) 102 songs! No selection/running order of songs or calculation for times made yet.
It’s impossible to choose songs of your favourite band!
Greets,
Thomas

@ Little Lucid Me: Nah, I know that, of course, but you were very quiet for a while and I remember you saying you didn’t really get into the last MP-concert in Apeldoorn (or was it just that you thought VS sounded dated?), so I thought you might be deserting the camp. Glad to see that is not the case and it is just another case of my “What if?”-scenario-infested brain!
You’re right about mixing it up. I didn’t mean “third country/third pop/third long songs” or something, but I do feel there has to be some kind of overall development in the selection of the songs. Even my “everything at the same time” compilations have some kind of thread to them, even though it is mostly just seen by me!
Strange thing: when I play them back, I do notice that I regularly put two songs, that are in the same key, together unconsciously.
Anyway: good to hear from you again and I hope to see you in May (Paradiso and Effenaar for me). I will be with some people, including Crackpot Idea.
Greetings,
Thomas
Yeah, I will be making yet another MP-compilation for an uninitiated, unsuspecting victim.
Thinking about it made me realise I am going to have to do a triple treat anyway. The first two from the albums, the third from the EP’s, promo’s and live-stuff.
No idea yet about songs and tension-arc. I know I want to start with “Feel” though, but that’s about it. Oh, and I’m going to include “I Believe” from Paradiso april 2002, to show her they can play blues too.
This may all change when I’m compiling…
Greets,
Thomas
P.S. @little lucid me: Good to hear from you, I thought you were mad at us!
And I can attest to the fact that mr. Crackpot Idea has no “male chauvinist pig” bone anywhere in his entire body!

@ Now Its Time 2 Skate: Sounds like you’re teaching her well! The Cure was always a good one too for my daughter. Oh and she loved “Firestarter” by The Prodigy! Anything that is dreamy, but not too abstract seems to work well for babies. Even though we may think “Selected Ambient Works pt. 2” by Aphex Twin is really soothing, while for them it can be scary. But then again, my kids were never really creeped out by The Residents, whereas they still scare the sh*t out of me sometimes!
And no, Crackpot Idea, The Residents don’t smell funny, only at the end of a performance, when the sweat starts pouring out from under their disguises. :mrgreen:

@ everyone: Thanks for all your kind responses.
@ supernaut: Hahahahaaaa! That’s a great site! I’m at work and can’t hear the sound, but I will definitely be checking it out from home. Thanks again!
We are getting very cute here now. Let’s go make a thread just to shout at people and be generally annoying. I know, we can call it “OT”! :wink:

Thomas
That’s a funny story!
From personal experience I know, that if the parents have a distinct love of music, it will almost certainly be passed on to the kids. Most of the bands/artists I love today originate from going through my parents’ record collection; The Stones, Jimi Hendrix, King Crimson, Gustav Mahler, John Coltrane, etc.
When my daughter was not even a year, she cried all day one day. We had heard that classical music allegedly makes babies peaceful, so we put on Mozart. She kept crying. Then Vivaldi. She cried even louder. After some time of this not working, I said “F*ck this!” and put on Led Zeppelin… loud. To my utter amazement she stopped crying immediately, looked at the speakers curiously, and then, smiling, started rocking her rocking chair in time to the music!
Later on, when she was close to three, she was subjected to Smashing Pumpkins a lot, them being my favourite band at the time. She always liked them. One time, I was playing “Mellon Collie…” and “Porcelina of the Oceans” came on. I was in the bedroom when it started. When I came into the living room, she was standing at the window, apparently looking outside at the rushing clouds, but with a far-away look in her eyes. She had her favourite doll clutched to her mouth and just rocked back and forth to the music. I scared the hell out of her when she found out I was in the room at all, she was so engrossed.
Now she’s almost seventeen and apparently into The Clash and The Sex Pistols, but she still likes some of her former music, P.J. Harvey especially.
My son – now thirteen – was a big Tom Petty fan at age five, but also likes strange music, like The Residents.
What they listen to now, is a bit of a mystery to me however, as I haven’t spoken to them in five years. But that’s another story.
Greets,
Thomas
P.S. In case you’re wondering: yes, I was a young dad, my daughter was born when I had just turned twenty.
@ Ivan: No idea about when Stickman gets it. You can try to send a mail to Jeannette (stickman(at)stickman-records.de – as found on their site), but if you do, please post her answer here, so that she does not have to answer everybody’s very same question!
Got the 7″ a few days ago. Must say I love side b, nearly Crimson-esque in the business of the riffs. My girlfriend said it was “too much information”. This coming from a girl who can actually stay in the room when I play “Trout Mask Replica”!
Greets,
Thomas
Weird that all of you have it already. I thought the release-date was feb. 22.
No complaints, just weird for me and lucky for you guys!
Greets,
Thomas
@ clencypu & all concerned: When I asked that question, Stickman said they would be getting some copies definitely, but could not say when. Good news: they accept international banktransfer.
Greetings,
Thomas
Got nervous about missing it, so I ordered with Rune. Sorry Jeannette, I cheated on you!
grtz,

No, from that small country next to Germany: The Netherlands.
Thank you for trying anyway!
