the studio and their hotel rooms would have to be completely padded with no sharp or breakable objects. but i'd love to see what they could come up with together.

great

Thanks for posting!

I would die-ie-ie. My god. I'm sure we all would die. Touring with BN? It's like the wet dream of the millenia.

Thank god one of those bitches is smart. lol.

But I can see how it would be hard to remain on good terms. LB is kind of a...difficult and temperamental and exacting spirit with his music, and SN, though probably better at getting along, but has more vanity and political (labelwise, moneywise) shiznitt surrounding her entity, which has probably made her more cocky and inflexible about her "music". Man, they are like a rat and a boa. *rolls eyes vehemently*. Although I think Stevie is the most likely concilatator.

Besides whatever is surrounding them, I think the two still have difficulty getting along. Even if there were no "people" and "obligations" and "money".

I can only hope that both of them recognize how brill BN is, and just take that **** out. They are brilliant singers and writers, does it all have to be so planned?!

Have some fricking rehearsals, coalesce the music, and take it out! Minus the BS. As if. Oh, and as if Stevie could still sing it. Could she?

Probably, if adjusted. *crosses fingers* Still, everything isn't as hard as those two make it. If they would just leave each other alone...then sing together...

And I love how Linds seems to have come full circle, gotten over things, and recognized where the great music is no matter the rest. That is my true pure vision of the perfect Linds, the Linds broken down to his true being - the one without jealousy and bull****, the one who only cares about the music. That is Linds's happy spirit, his true self. The one that will set him free.

You are never free if you are begrudging someone else their success, and you are most free when you celebrate others successes.
He's so smart, but couldn't figure that out/accept it emotionally, before.
He's so brill but lhas let it get caught up in some stupid sh*t that doesn't matter. I know, it's hard, truly I know.

So, I'm so very, very happy that he seems free now.
Stevie is Stevie, Linds is Linds, and apart they are brill, and together they are brill, and none should detract from the other, and when they are together, they should only be the best and add expotentially to the other's brill. Everyone's brill is different, and sometimes you have to wait for the recognition, and sometime the recognition will be different for you than it is for someone else - because you are you, you are not them, you have your own special stuff to be recognized for. And the kudos for others never, ever, takes away from your talent. It is just that you were meant for different kudos, kudos not like Stevie's kudos. And the more you work against the flow, the harder it will be. Whoever else makes you sound great is a blessing. Which is, oddly, a lesson I think Stevie understood early, but that Linds had a hard time grasping. She worked with everyone, and knew she was best with a group, knew her strengths.
Linds was a loner, which is fine - but just b/c you want all your stuff to sound how you want it doesn't mean everyone else's stuff is crappy. You can make a whole album by yourself, and it can kick ass, but that doesn't mean you have to disparage what other artists do, and be petty and not sign that copy of Belladonna. lol.

The more bad energy you reap, the more you sow.

To put it simply in real life: All my friends are beautiful, talented, and accomplished (or some combo) - And I may not be beautiful or talented or accomplished in the same ways - but that doesn't make me resent them - it makes me celebrate! I could be jealous, but why bother, because I will never be them, they will never have my strengths and I will never have theirs. Sure, it's hard sometimes - but it's never logical to resent someone's success just because it wasn't you . And theirin lies LB's whole lesson. It is hard though, I might have been pissed if I was LB - but not for that long. I would've just been like:

"yeah, she's more famous and beautiful and blah, which sucks ass, but I'm the one who arranged all that ****, and girl can't play guitar or piano, and I can - I made up all the rest of those kick ass songs after the melody - and yes, it would be nice to get mass acknowledgment for my production on Rumours and everything else - but the point is that I did produce it, I accomplished that, and everyone in this band, and me, knows it. I have that skill, that others don't have! I kick ass, my talent is undeniable"

Is what I would have said if I was Linds. And I still might have been jealous or pouty, but I would have gotten over it way sooner, and realized that those feelings are holding me back from my art and my life.

Okay, Done, Lindsey Stevie speech over.

^^ what she said.

i think stevie could still do her BN shiz. i don't think those songs really cover a wide range, do they? if they were lowered, i bet she'd be fine. omg, can you imagine her doing crystal? i'd die. or don't let me down again? that one's my favorite. i was just listening to a live version from the king biscuit flower hour they did on 5/3/75, and it was awesome. why they ever dropped that song, i'll never know. it's up there with blue letter and i don't wanna know as far as great BN harmonies for me. dude, that show was great. as soon as i get home next week, i should post my favorite tracks.

Thanks, girl, missed you - but actually I think BN does cover a wide range. I still marvel at the harmonies. We've heard Crystal, haven't we?

But - I think her new voice has good fluidity, it would all just have to be done in lower keys.

It's not like she can't sing now, it's just different. She still can fluid around some notes like I never seen - they're just really low notes.

I love DLMDA, and can you send me the King Biscuit?

Because I would die. Oh, okay, next week when you get home.

I think Stevie would love that show, the BN one, too - she likes to show her vocal chops, and there's no denying her chops have been at maximum chop form, lately. The bad part is that she seems to get so crabby when playing with Linds.

I'm pretty sure he's a secret a-hole. I don't want it to be so, but Stevie is fairly easy going, for her to have that face during the second leg of SYW is frightening - I don't want to see that face again. Ah, if only TP could sing the BN tracks with her.

(I'm kidding, everyone, don't spaz out).

P.S. Carrie - "OOOWEEE! LISTEN TO ME! MY SECRET LOVE SECRETLY DIED!!!"

i've missed chatting with you

... i kinda ducked out of here for a while.

yeah dude, i'll totally send you king biscuit, because you will LOVE it!! i actually was going to, but i am at a hotel, and the connection is SO slow. but seriously, the sound quality is so good. and her voice ... it is my favorite early landslide. it's all so good.

maybe BN does cover a larger range ... i guess i don't notice because she never sounds strained. but like you said, her voice has a fluidity now that is really stunning.

oh, and the TP thing -

... only because i know some people will flip at that.

oh, and crystal - have we heard her do it live?

i can't tell that your voice died, though ... so your secret voice must have secretly died?

you're right, my version will be up as soon as i get home.

I know, it's not as throaty today. 2 days ago, though - no singy, anything. I think the throaty adds some kind of normal thing to my vocals.

Less not have your version be too perfect - everything Stevie should sound like improv, just like Stevie does!

Ooo, Ooo, Ooo....now, you need some rest, my darlin it's best...Ooo, Ooo, Ooo!

i'll try to make it sound improv-y. but it's hard for me because i am totally a perfectionist ... i do have a bottle of jager that might help me with this challenge, though.

estranged4life · #12 10-07-2006, 12:20 AM

to have LB & SN tour behind the B&N album. I know alot of people would be interested in the odd chance that such a tour could occur.

I know, and your voice is all pure and even and good.

So lame.

(JK, obviously)

It does seem like it would be hard for you to sing improvisationally....

i'm really good at mimicking others' performances. improv is way outside my comfort zone, but, as i said, i'll give it a shot.

it's such a burden to have the voice of an angel ...

Totally... how many years has the fan base fantasized about a BN tour? There's definitely someone in his/their camp who reads fan-ernet sites. I'm just glad they're "listening" and (seem to) care about what we want.

Stevie and Lindsey? Well... that combination will NEVER have the proper PH. They're too much alike. Yes... you heard me... ALIKE. Stubborn, egotistical and extremely creative. And we're so happy the end result is some fantastical music for US.

I have faith in their higher reasoning that they absolutely could pull off a BN tour. And can't wait until it happens.

My not so brilliant guess is they will remaster and reissue the CD around that same time.

BRING IT ON!!
