Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: Big Mick Date: 28 Feb 04 - 01:30 PM Thanks to our beloved Jeff, otherwise known as Pene Azul, the pictures taken by Tinker and I are in the photo section HERE. Thanks, Jeff for the hard work getting them up. I have some name corrections to make, such as Goldberg instead of Golden, but I must tell you that when one describes Eve's voice the appropriate adjective would be "golden". Wonderful singer. All the best, Mick |
Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: Backstage Manager(inactive) Date: 28 Feb 04 - 03:29 PM Nice pictures. But one of them is incorrectly captioned as "Poet, Hawkes Hood." The man's name is Holmes Hooke. |

Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: Tinker Date: 28 Feb 04 - 05:58 PM Okay the "techie guys" from CIUT ( honest they told me that's what Engineers are called these days... ) In the Dark Blue shirt, Sam Petite and in the Yellow shirt Fred Spek. These two guys just kept quietly going about their business of solving problems with amazing speed. They got things going and then kept things running smoothly during the show. I don't know if many folks caught the reference, but when Rick first joined the show over the phone, they had three different problems which were solved in under five minutes to make that hook up work. They deserve huge thanks for helping to bring this concept to reality. And besides they are just all around nice guys. Tinker |

Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: catspaw49 Date: 29 Feb 04 - 12:57 AM Hey Bro......Thanks for the pics of one of the strangest nights I have had in many and many a year. Someday I hope to write about it and what I had going on then, just as soon as I can figure out what it was and the words needed to express it...........Until then though, it's wonderful reading the experiences of others both there and listening in and even grander to see so many good pictures of great folks. I especially liked Tink's boots. Heather looks really wonderful as always and PT looks as though he had gas.........And Mick...that tire changing crap is gonna' cost you your position with the firm if you're not careful. Spaw |

Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: Paul Mills Date: 01 Mar 04 - 12:31 AM Say What Mick? Just to let you all know, Peter T and I will be hosting Acoustic Workshop again tomorrow night. The streaming link seems to be working now - at least it did when I tried it today. Hope you can listen in. Cheers, Paul |
Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: Jeri Date: 01 Mar 04 - 06:46 AM Thanks, picture senders Mick and Tinker, and putter-upper Jeff. It's good to feel like I have have some sort of connection to the event. Paul, if I can listen, I will. |
Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: Tinker Date: 01 Mar 04 - 05:47 PM Lane, Fielding, Paterson and Swan Lay-Abouts- at- Large Ohio Division Attention: Mr. Catspaw Paterson Dear Mr. 'Spaw: I read your post with considerable concern, and it is with a large degree of reluctant rectitude that I disregard my previous restraint and set down here, for your review, the activities of February 16th. I had attempted to exercise restraint in the telling of the tire tale, but after careful deliberation with my husband, we have agreed that 'tis better to tell the True Tale than to chance loosing the "L" in L,F,P&S: FAA. Now you may not be aware of the fact that I am not a morning person. In fact, it often takes gentle handling to arouse me early in the morning, but on that particular Toronto morning your colleague, Mr. Lane, promised a "rare treat in fine company". Imagine my emotional roller coaster as one thing lead to another and soon in true Lay-about fashion Mr. Lane was flat on his back. ( Exhibit Page 5, Photo 5) ) and I found myself with a handful of Icy Nuts !!! As I am sure you are aware, in the frigid Toronto morning, cold contractions of exposed nuts can make it difficult to get them off. Previously Mr. Big Mick had implied that I might someday be eligible for consideration of provisional Layabout status--- I thought this might be some form of field testing situation, so with great reluctance, I slowly and gently removed the nuts from the palm of my hand and let him resolve the situation personally. At no time that morning ( or elsewise during the weekend) did Mr. Lane even break a sweat. I can unequivocally testify that Mr. Lane's Lay-about-status was never endangered. Sincerely, Ms. Tinker |
Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: balladeer Date: 02 Mar 04 - 12:32 PM Paul: Thanks so much for playing my song on the air last night. I didn't hear it, or what you and Peter T said about it, because I was in the middle of a band practice, but thoughtful friends let me know. Balladeer |
Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: Arnie Naiman Date: 02 Mar 04 - 03:18 PM I just got the station last night when you played a cut by Paul Odegaard. I really enjoy the creative and inventive arrangements and beautiful quality of banjo playing and tunes on that CD. Mudcatters take note - get "Banjo Suite" for an enjoyable banjo listening experience - not your average run of the milll banjo CD. Arnie |
Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: GUEST,Brien Pepperdine Date: 03 Mar 04 - 02:43 PM Let us try this again. Yes I liked Paul Odegaard's music too on the March 1 Acoustic Workshop and I thank Arnie Naiman for mentioning it and spelling out the fellow's name. Otherwise I would have had to call Paul Mills for info after driving myself crazy hunting for info on "Paulo Degard" (hey, that's they way I heard it, I think I wanted the guy to seem more exotic!). (some day a playlist or mail-list of music heard on Acoustic Workshop would be nice...) Anyhow, being the equal of any kindergarden pupil I can use Google and found: http://members.rogers.com/paulodegaard/order.html So if anyone is so inclined (like me) they can get a copy of that fine music.

Subject: RE: Rick Fielding's 'Virtual' CD Release From: Jeri Date: 13 Mar 04 - 01:48 PM I'm bringing this up again because I just got the CD last week. Borealis sent it out rather quickly, it went air mail, and it took two weeks to get here. I think pigeons could probably manage in at least half that time! It was, indeed, worth the wait. As I said somewhere before, it's the most Rick-like recording he's made. It has some heavy-duty picking songs on it, 'Houston Special' and 'Step It Up and Go'. It's got Hangman's Reel, so evocative that one can almost hear the squeak of a heavily-weighted rope swaying back and forth at the end. (If one has one's stereo cranked up pretty loud, that is.) It's got songs to make you wet both your cheeks AND your pants, and...am I the only one who thinks the recording of 'Cuckoo' is an incredibly innovative linking of the old-time American version back to its British roots? This music, as his home, is one big 'Acoustic Workshop' and I'm grateful for both...or perhaps they're one and the same. In my own mind, I'm there, and I will be, whenever I listen, and hear, and lose myself in that wonderful music. Thank you. |
