Does anyone in the UK have his new release "Baby I'm Bored" yet? This, of course, if anyone here likes the Lemonheads to begin with?

Just curious since it won't be released in the states until the 22nd!

I read some great reviews on it, one in particular saying it was back on the same track as "It's a Shame about Ray", which sounds as though it might be rather good then, imho.

I just listened to it on his website BCoD - http://www.evandando.com
Can't say that I'm especially sold on it (uh oh, was that negative?) and I've liked a lot of his previous stuff including the Lemonheads. I'd have to give the indie guy with the guitar award to Beck for Sea Change.

At least Evan Dando is hot, I don't know that I can say the same for Jeff Lynne. LOL!

Yeah but Jeff Lynne never got up onstage with Oasis, AFAIK.

Then again, Evan Dando had nothing to do with the Travelling Willburys.

And I still want to beat him for being so physically close to Juliana Hatfield. Dude! Back off! Can't you see she's here with me!!

Hey, I know there are a lot of people here that are into different styles of music, infact that's like saying that Voivod are just strictly metal..they're obviously not!

Hey I know you've got to be one of the most "open-minded" people in the world when it comes to music!

Besides the Lemonheads, the only others on that list worth mentioning would be The Breeders, Janes Addiction, and the Violent Femmes. Although I've got to admit that I've never heard of "Angel Rat" before, are they good?

Hey 'Corpse - when can I get to hear these riffs you speak of? It sounds like you have a similar method to your madness as I do! Are you writing / recording at the moment?

'quality death metal riffs' that should be a sticker on any material you release, corpse.

ianc, say hi to juliana for me. lol

We were talking about this in the chat, how there are people here who like so many different kinds of music that I have to agree with BCoD, asking a question about ED here isn't out of the realm of reason at all.

Look girls, I'm not saying I disagree on any level with discussing non-Voivod, even non-metal bands ever with anybody.

We all go through that "look at how open minded I am about music" phase when we look at our music collections and see things together that don't necessarily have anything to do with each other.

I just wasn't sure how likely it would be that anyone else here would be into Evan Dando.

And if we're going to try to out-weird each other with our musical tastes and influences, maybe we should make it a seperate thread? I'm sure it's already been beaten to death at some point in the past.

I'll tell Julianna you said hi, Noitall. One thing I can say about her - she certainly eats a lot of Stew. I just hope she doesn't find out about my girlfriend Cathy Dennis.

Ianc, I think a lot of people in the chat are past the "look at how open minded I am about music" phase. Most are either close to, or have passed the age of 30. Not that age has anything to do with musical taste by any means. I just found your comment amusing, because it's somewhat typical of the kind of remark you would find on other 'metal' forums and not very indicative of the core group of people here. That's all.

I remember seeing the Lemonheads(aka the 'Evan Dando' band) the last time in '96, and I was really happy to see them "downgraded" to playing a bar (the Crocodile Cafe in Seattle) it was up close in personal for a change.

Also it was nice to not see all of the "teeny-boppers" for a change, as it wasn't a huge all-ages show, but instead, it was a small 21+ show. Of course, I'm sure that all of the "so-called" teeny-boppers back then were probably still the same ones in back in '96, only a little older now.

I remember saying "hi" to Evan as he was leaving the bar, going straight for his bus outside. He was very friendly, but he didn't waste anytime getting to the bus, infact as soon as their set was over, he "practically" stage-dove into the crowd to beat everyone out the door.

Of course once he got to it...there were a whole bunch of teeny-boppers waiting for him!

Naw, I missed it!

Does he seem to be "more sober" than usual these days?

(btw, thanks for the link to hear the album...obviously I didn't look hard enough ..it didn't sound too horrible, and on the flipside...nothing spectacular either
