Yea the new stuff is heavier, the first album seemed a bit more out there.

Seems like I'd prefer the first album even more, but for now I think i'm going to stick with "Boing, We'll Do It Live" for a while.

Personally I like the second album more, "Bad Asteroid" is such a monster song though.

I still haven't filed this live album away yet.

I guess the problem is finding out where to file it. Rock?  Jazz?  Avant Garde? I keep trying to sort out a fusion section, but that always ends up being more trouble than its worth and I put everything back the way it was due to questioning if its really fusion or does it just have elements of fusion.

I kind of have to pull out King Crimson at that point because it's really its own entity and then I get myself into trouble with the Levin, Bruford, Belew, Fripp and Wetton solo albums.

It never ends well.

I try to keep things simple when I tag up my albums so I put the first album as simply rock, I don't like getting into too many sub-genre's

You better go see them! I don't know how much the tickets are (mine were $20 a piece) but they are well worth the time and money to see them.

$15 each. Problem is it's on a Sunday, doors at 10PM, show at 11PM. I'm too old for shows like that with work the next day.   :censored

In case anyone was interested, here is an interview I did with Marco Minnemann last Friday in St. Paul

Lots of Aristocrats and LMR talk:

My sub-genres are Rock, Jazz, Advant-Garde, Classical, Soundtracks, Blues, Country, Various Artists and 60's,70's 80's 90's.

Eighty percent of what I have goes in the first three catagories so in one way it's pretty simple and in another it really isn't.

I definately will.  I saw 2/3s with Satriani and now can actually see Govan.

As much as I like Satch (seeing him a few times) Guthrie is just a different animal all together, his tone is unbelievable.

Still not a huge fan of Govan, but I appreciate him a lot more in this context.

I heard one song by them and I hated it. It was like listening to 3 kids at a jam night each showing off on their own and completely not listening to what anyone else is playing.

What song did you listen to?

Usually the easiest songs to get into are either "Bad Asteroid" or "Flatlands"

That's a pretty good track.  I can see how the aristocrats are for everyone. Check those two songs out if you have time, if you like it, you like it.

I've only heard a song or two by these guys, but I just found out they're coming to town soon... and playing at an awesome little bar just a few blocks away from me. I loved seeing Minnemann and Govan play with SW, and I'm really excited to see them play such a small venue.

Its cool. They're doing a chance to have donuts with them at an undisclosed location.  You get one entry by signing up and it doubles if you find 4 posters that are posted all around town, I found two so far.

the clever part was agreeing with Reaper that they are for everyone. well, 'cept for one, i guess.

anyway, just wanted to point out that even though there's obviously more improvisation than your average collection of songs, there's a crazy amount of composition going on (also far more than your average tuneage) and a TON of interplay (particularly evident live).

I might go check then out when they play in Bristol. I've been a fan of gg ever since I first picked up the guitar and was given a copy of "guitar techniques" which he used to contribute loads of stuff in.

I just looked at the dates and sadly they are only playing south England on Monday and Tuesday night! Massive bummer, you would have thought they would do a London show on the weekend...
