A friend of my is repairing Moogs piano which was given to him by Yamaha ( I think) Its a really cool piano and I played one note on it! Holy brush with greatness! I'd like to check out the DVD sometime.

It's excellent!!What should be my next purchase?? And after that, and so on. Well it's been 3 months since my first purchase. I now have all the albums and DVDs'. What an unbelievable band. I found some of it hard going at first, but perseverance pays off. The documentaries on the DVDs' gave me a great insight into the band, it's workings and personalities. Product wise, they really spoil us, don't they? Got the triple cd Live Scenes last week to complete the collection. Great live album. The definitive version of A Change Of Seasons, IMHO. Cannot wait for Systematic Chaos, cannot wait to see them live. Thanks to all TRFers' for the advice regarding next purchases. YOU WERE ALL CORRECT! And the naysayers? Meh! wait till you see them live ! Yes, DT must play Galway this tour! Theres few things better than discovering a new favorite musical group.

I am heading out to Summit County CO in April for a week. I might get some powder then. I think I am going to try hit Alta next winter.

I'll make some turns for you tomorrow, Tang. Killer! Let us know how it was.......... It was good, but not great. Got tracked out pretty quick, but I managed some good powder turns in the steep. Mott Canyon was good. But tomorrow is a mid-week day off with another huge dump of snow. Hoping for the first truly epic day of the season. Sounds good to me. Hope you catch a good one tomorrow.

Yeah, Travis posted that the response for the entire set was much greater than expected.

That is by far the coolest art work of the 3 that I have seen. I wonder how many total sets he will issue?

I'm curious about that too. I saw at the TDRS forum that there is a list at the TK site? The review of the "I" disc there sounded real postive. It was a lot of cash but I had to have it.

QUOTE (ReRushed @ Feb 24 2007, 11:39 PM) When it comes to rap I always go back to It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back - it's one of the most brilliantly produced albums of all time. There's nothing simple about it, nothing sounded like it before it was released and everything sounded like it after it was released. Rap may not be everyone's cup of tea but anyone serious about music has to at least acknowledge some of the innovations and expressions it introduced as a genre. Rap is here to stay. Get use to it. +1 One of the greatest discs of all time and I caught that tour.

QUOTE (third hand grace @ Feb 23 2007, 03:42 PM) I'll be in FLA at the end of March, and I'll be drinking it down there on tap, as well as bringing a stash back for summer. I still maintain my original stance, in that the Yingies from FLA is inferior to that from PA. Let me know if you can tell the difference. Wish I could go to FLA in march, probably gonna go in June, though. I've never tried their porter or anything else they make. I think i will go crack open the 1st yingie of the day now ! Frequently Asked Questions How is Yuengling pronounced? Yuengling is German meaning 'Young Man'. It is pronounced "Ying-Ling'. Why can't I find Yuengling nationwide? The Yuengling Brewery is a regional brewer that has manufacturing plants in Pottsville, PA and Tampa, FL. Currently we distribute our products over a ten state area along the eastern seaboard. While there is significant interest for our products nationwide, unfortunately we do not have the manufacturing capabilities to service customers across the United States. As a result, our focus and efforts continues to be on our loyal customers and markets that are logistically feasible to our production facilities. What are your plans for expansion? Over the past few years Yuengling's expansion into new markets has been limited. Our future plans for expansion are based upon our production capabilities and our ability to properly introduce and service retailers and customers in any new market. Such decisions are based on a market by market basis. Where does the brewery distribute beer? The brewery currently distributes its products in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, Delaware, Maryland, Washington D.C., Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, South Carolina & Alabama. We have been reopening markets and opening new territories to distribute Yuengling beers. Stay in touch for further market openings in your area. See our Distributor List to find your nearest source of Yuengling fine beers. Does Yuengling ship beer anywhere? As a United States brewer, Yuengling is only allowed to ship to our assigned distributors. Due to various State and Federal laws, we are not permitted to ship beer directly to retailers and consumers. Can I buy stock in Yuengling? No, Yuengling is a privately held corporation and does not offer stock to the public. Nor do we issue financial and annual reports. When were Black & Tan, Lager, and Light introduced? Black & Tan was originally introduced by combining our Porter and Chesterfield Ale. This was called Half and Half. Around 1986 our Brewmaster felt that 60% Porter and 40% Premium was a much better blend and started producing Black & Tan. Lager, an old recipe that we have re-introduced, was re-produced in 1987. Yuengling Light was first brewed in 1986. What makes Yuengling Light a light beer? Light beers are held longer in the Mash Tun during the brewing process so that the enzymes in the malt have more conversion time of the starches into fermentable sugars. This leaves fewer unfermentable sugars in the mash that would equate to more calories. The fermentable sugars are then converted to alcohol during fermentation; thus, resulting in fewer calories in the final product. Where in Germany did the Yuengling family come from? David G. Yuengling emigrated from Aldingen, Germany. It is a town in Wurttemberg, near Stuttgart and Ludwigsburg, Germany which is in the southwestern part of the country. How did David G. Yuengling know how to make beer? David G. Yuengling was making beer in his home in Germany before he came to America. When was the bar in the brewery built? The bar in the brewery, commonly known as the Rathskeller, was built in 1936. How do you become a brewmaster? To become a brewmaster you must successfully complete 10-12 weeks of very intense training as well as a 5-10 years of an apprenticeship. There are two in the United States that we are aware of: The Davis Institute in California and the Siebel Institute in Chicago, Illinois. What does a brewmaster do? A brewmaster is basically in charge of and oversees all of the operations of the brewery. What did Yuengling do during Prohibition? During Prohibition Yuengling made near-beer which was .5% alcohol, much like the non-alcoholic beers are today. The brewery also opened a dairy called the Yuengling Dairy. Here they made ice cream and other dairy products. Why did the Yuengling Dairy close? The Yuengling Ice Cream and Dairy Plant closed in 1981. The family that ran the dairy had different interests causing the demise of that portion of the business. There is a Yuengling Spring House. Why is that not used for the water supply anymore? The Yuengling Spring House is located approximately 5 blocks from the brewery. Up until the last decade this was the main supply of water for the plant. With business growing and the demand so high, the Spring House could not supply the amount of water to operate daily. Currently, Yuengling uses approximately 300,000 gallons of water per day. What time are the tours? Please see Tour Info for scheduled tour times. Is there any charge for the tours? There is no charge for the tours unless you have a group of 20 or more. In this case please call ahead for special arrangements: - Pottsville 570-628-4890 - Tampa 813-972-8529

QUOTE (ReRushed @ Feb 23 2007, 03:19 PM) I think the criticism is not that Zeppelin is underrated, it's that they "did not give credit where credit is due." To say the least, Zep does owe a considereable debt to all those great blues artists (not to mention Jeff Beck). With that said, they are a phenomenal band. I love every album, but as for their latter stuff I've always has a soft spot for In Through the Out Door/I]. "Carouselambra" is one of my favorite Zep songs. Right on! They did rip off a lot of music. That said they are a great band however I must consider them greatly overrated. Presence, Houses, III in that order.

QUOTE (Drunk Pirate Robert @ Feb 16 2007, 11:56 PM) For a change of pace in this forum, a really serious topic: what is "alcoholism"? Do you know, or have you known in the past, anybody personally you would describe as an "alcoholic"? If so, what about them makes you describe them as an "alcoholic"? What is the difference between being an "alcoholic" and somebody who likes to drink lots of alcohol? Is there a difference? An alcoholic is anyone who drinks more than you do.

Its all good. No time to hate anything.......... its a waste of time.

Make sure you read the last sentence...........
