I'm off today and had to drop a few items off at the storage space, so it was convenient to make a quick video.
The midseason may be including a video (likely without many physical items).
The React to Songs list, a video? I don't know how long (winded) going over it would be. Perhaps an abridged/summary video could work. Again, of course time permitting.
Update:
Kindo concert in St. Paul, MN

Joey Eppard (Three/Solo) Q and A (Summer 2017)
Facebook Link
I'm posting this with the hope that it's completely available to the public.
This Q and A that Joey did on Facebook on Saturday afternoon was per the Alien Angels 3 Fan Group.
Just to summarize, he talks about the solo record he is working on and working on new Three music. The solo album ("Word to the Wise") would likely come out before the next Three album. But there's some new Three music being worked on as well.
And he has written many songs, but many are not finished (either writing or just the recording of them).
No real projection on the timing of his solo album. But he gets only like 1 hour a day to work on his music, whereas he used to have a lot more time, etc.
2018?
The songs from the 2014 1-song per month thing may come out in on Three album in the future (not necessarily their next studio record).
Ani Di Franco, John Lennon, Stevie Wonder, Opeth, Dream Theater, Victor Wooten, and Elliot Smith among other names he talked about as being a fan of, or inspired by, etc.
Also there was a Comic for Paint By Number that was never really finished. But the artwork is taken from part of that. And I guess the album is out of print and hard to come by now. I thankfully have a copy for myself.
I wish someone might have asked him about Vinyl (Three albums), but maybe another time soon.
Also the next Three album might be helped by crowd-funding (the question mentioned Kickstarter, but I would suggest Pledgemusic I guess).
Oh and cool to learn that Dug Pinnick of King's X is a fan and saw Three with Porcupine Tree when they toured together and hit Houston. I'm surprised Three and King's X never tried to tour together after that, but maybe they could? Porcupine Tree and King's X I know toured together at 1 point as well. I wonder if that was a result of Dug having seen PT live at that show?
edit: just googling, the King's X PT tour was in 2009, and I recall Three opened for PT before Progressive Nation in 2008, so perhaps.

Random Artist Feature: King's X (24 min Video)
Like the Vinyl Update video, my apologies for my voice sounding overly nasal per the cold/congestion I was/am battling when I made this video.
Also lack of physical copies of many albums. I own them all, but other than the actual discs, it would probably require a fair amount of time hunting them down. And/or the extended amount of time inserting images and converting the edited video with Premiere Elements, etc.

King's X (or "Sneak Preview") - "Linda" (from 1983)
Wow. I had never heard nor seen this video or song before. Not a bad, catchy tune. As much as I love King's X. I have not heard all that much of the music they made before their debut album Out of the Silent Planet, from 1988. But of course I know of their history, which dates nearly a decade before that record (1979 I believe is when Dug Pinnick and Ty Tabor met).
But the hardcore and longtime fans know a lot about this stuff, especially if they lived in Springfield, MO where Sneak Preview and the other names they went by (The Edge I recall being another).
I wonder if those folks have uploaded many other videos from these periods, as I'd be curious to see or hear more. I do have a bootleg or 2 of them playing a few covers like Roxanne by The Police. And I know they would play covers frequently. I even remember hearing about them covering Rush ("Tom Sawyer" I recall).

Michael Nesmith in St.Paul 4/5/13
4/6/13 9:30PM
Edit: Here's a bunch of live videos from the show.
Thanks to Shayla (on Facebook) aka "MichaelNesmith4Ever" on Youtube, for filming these and sharing them.
4/6/13 12:34PM
Here's the setlist, which seems to be the standard for this tour. He tells the stories before most of the songs, which honestly is very cool and adds much to the perspective of each song. Although having heard a bootleg from last Fall, obviously the stories were told more or less the same way.
Papa Gene's Blues
(The Monkees song)
Propinquity (I've Just Begun To Care)
Tomorrow and Me
Different Drum
Joanne
Silver Moon
Some of Shelly's Blues
Rio
Casablanca Moonlight
Grand Ennui
Cruisin'
Rays
Life the Unsuspecting Captive/Marie's Theme/Lamppost (Closing Theme from The Prison)
Laugh Kills Lonesome
Encore:
Thanx for the Ride
Okay, well to rehash/reiterate, Michael Nesmith is my girlfriend's all-time favorite musician, and she, much like many other long time fans, has been waiting for decades to see the man live. Last Fall it happened finally with The Monkees outside of Southern California, sans for the 1 reunion tour that for Mike ended in Europe in 1997.
But last Fall was THE MONKEES, and this was MIKE himself, which for the most part, his music is a fair amount different.
I did like how involved his backing band was. His guitarist, Chris Scruggs really worked well especially, playing some of the pedal steel and slide guitar that many of Mike's tunes feature. I suppose highlight-wise for me, seeing Rio of course and the suite from The Prison probably stood out the most. But I didn't find any tune he played boring. I suppose had Mike taken my suggestion of "Wax Minute" it might have been even more special, but I also didn't expect him to play that.
And of course my girlfriend, had many tunes, probably from the First National Band LPs, she might have gone even more crazy for, but she was so strung up about seeing and Meeting Mike, that wasn't on her mind much.
I must say, hearing "Crusin'" I believe it was, Kevin Gilbert very easily could have been listening to that tune when he wrote the 1st phrase of "Imagemaker." The cadence and phrasing, and tempo are very similar. And of course Kevin was a big Monkees fan, and Mike's son Christian is a Kevin Gilbert and progressive rock fan (cites Dug Pinnick of King's X as a friend as well). So, it would hardly be surprising if Kevin knew, liked and was influenced by Mike's solo music as well.
A couple of points to bring up, that should not be forgotten:
1) The "Conversations" that Mike announced via Facebook a few weeks ago. Only 25 TOTAL were available for each concert, and they went on sale, unannounced, at 3AM. I unfortunately woke up at 2AM, got an email about them but they were not for sale yet. I went back to sleep, and woke up to my alarms around 5:30AM, and tried to purchase 2 "Conversations" passes via his Videoranch.com Unfortunately, it said they were SOLD OUT (and I should try again), My girlfriend then tried to purchase 1 "Conversation"
and she got 1! So I then tried to get 1 and I kept getting the "Sold Out" over and over again, to the point it eventually just said "Sold Out. No more passes are available for your concert."
It sucked, as I wanted to be there WITH HER when she got to meet the guy she's dreamed of meeting and revered for over 26 years. But when Mike talked about these "Conversations" he wanted them to more like chats, casual, etc, NOT "VIP Meet and Greets" that a lot artists do sometimes before (preferably, to be honest), or after shows.
This was to my guess, to be like the special After show chats for the VIP and the BLACK CARD holders for the Ours shows I should have the ability to see for the next 4 years or so.The 1 time I have used my Black Card, we got in a line and went upstairs into a room and sat in chairs and hung with the band, for mostly an unlimited amount of time.
Well The Fitzgerald Theater did nothing of this sort. The email my girlfriend got said TO WAIT BY OUR SEAT after the show, after more or less all the crowd cleared. Well, instead, she ended up to having to wait in the Fitz's rather small and limited space hallway with the other 24 people. Mike HIMSELF was wondering how or why there wasn't some kind of table for him to sit on.
And of course many of the staff would not let myself and some friends wait in the corridor for my girlfriend. No, they more or less kicked us out. And while it wasn't Siberian-cold weather out last night, it also wasn't all that warm. Maybe 30 degrees (although it had been lightly sleeting earlier in the evening, thankfully it had stopped at the point we were outside).
2) Lack of Promotion: Not surprisingly, but still pathetically, CITYPAGES had absolutely NOTHING about it in their weekly printed edition. They found Shirley Mansion and Garbage were more interesting to write about I guess. Which I don't mind Shirley, maybe more for her work on the TERMINATOR show, than her band, but whatevah. It's not like people have waited DECADES to see her.
All in All, this was about as eventful as any concert this year (or ever for my girlfriend especially). And now, our little battle finally shifts into MY CORNER for BUCKET LIST acts to see live, as she has now seen both Michael Nesmith with The Monkees and SOLO. Her all-time favorite musician. And she MET HIM as well. So, I can finally say, I've waited the longest, as I have never seen LED ZEPPELIN which I have waited nearly 23 years..although she doesn't like to count that since "yeah, but one of the member's be DEAD."
But, I have others as well. Maybe more on that later.
She now has 3 of the 4 Monkees (including Davy) signed to her 7" inch single of "Daydream Believer" only needing Micky now!
Also, a note, since Mike could be back with The Monkees this Summer and/or another Solo leg, if this current tour goes well. I may have more Michael Nesmith concerts to talk about in here soon.

It’s often been said that three-piece bands are the most expressive and most balanced musical units known to the rock world. Cream, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Rush, The Police, Primus … These legendary acts struck upon the correct ratio of musicianship and progressive songwriting by exploring uncharted musical territories while highlighting the individual talents within their collective ranks.
Now Magna Carta Records unveils Pinnick Gales Pridgen a visionary power trio (emphasis on power) and a supergroup to boot, which is sure to take its rightful place in rock’s hallowed halls.
Pinnick Gales Pridgen show some of their influences with their brilliant version of seminal power trio Cream’s “Sunshine Of Your Love”. Pinnick says, "Our version has a different vibe: it’s tuned down, real low.”
As much as I can't stand, or have lacking supportive thoughts towards Magna Carta, even as many years after the garbage that went down with their people and musicians/bands I liked, it can be sort of water under the bridge at this point.
And as much as I love King's X and Doug, most of his solo (Strum Sum Up, Emotional Animal, Poundhound and sideprojects (Supershine among many others), while often not bad, haven't quite compared to King's X. The sample video above and the samples on the link below I'll admit, have got me pretty intrigued about this album/band/project.
And Thomas Pridgen, who has only played on 2 albums I have heard, from memory, both with The Mars Volta of course. And his work on Octahedron, I honestly, have very little to no memory of. Which leaves The Bedlam in Goliath, which his playing was fine, but the mix was god awful. But the guy obviously has the chops and experience outside of TMV, which for this album, I still wouldn't doubt his ability for this record.
And Eric Gales, the name is familiar but I honestly don't recall hearing any music from, from memory at this point. But in just reading a little about him, I guess his roots are in Jimi Hendrix-style blues rock since the early 1990s.
I don't want to get ahead of myself, but those samples and video do sound rather intriguing about this album. Rather funky/bluesy hard rock of a kind. And the "Power Trio" as it emphasizes, which may suggest it does focus a lot on just songwriting and melodies with groove. Jimi Hendrix? yeah, I'm a fan. They even cover Cream's "Sunshine of Your Love," which of course Jimi was a Cream fan of course.
And the drop date for this album is soon, being on February 12th.

Dug Pinnick - Naked (2013)
http://www.facebook.com/pages/dUg-Pinnick-Fan-Page/267397163682?fref=ts
Not a ton to add, although cool to learn about this along with the Pinnick Gales Pridgen album coming so early in the year. This is dropping on Sunday January 13th of all days. I have never been attached to his solo records, at least completely. Poundhound was interesting, and I found Strum Sum Up had a bunch of good tracks, but just from memory, I can't even recall which ones they were, lol. I just remember thinking it was 1 of his best records outside of King's X.
But my feeling is right now, the PGP thing I have higher hopes for, but this still should be worth hearing. These 2 videos/singles: I am at least assuming the 1st one 'What You Gonna Do?" will be on this album. I do like some of the subtle layering and psych harmonies within those heavy grooves just from hearing it once.
"Holiday" may be on the record, or just a track he made for the holidays, or a bonus song or something given he made it for download on X-Mas.
This album Naked, I suspect will be just digital like those singles. But that along with the details of this record should be put up I'd think any day/hour now (unless it all comes on the 13th).

Jerry Gaskill (King's X) health concerns/HURRICANE SANDY EFFECT
11/1/12 1:05AM
bump.
I know there are so many others going through hell besides Jerry with the effects of this, but among them, Jerry and his wife Julie apparently lost their home due to Hurricane Sandy. The guy, while having a Rollercoaster of a 2012, you'd think Good Karma will eventually find him.
http://www.giveforward.com/jerrygaskill
The friends and fans of Jerry Gaskill- King's X are uniting to raise money to help Jerry and his wife Julie rebuild after hurricane Sandy The friends and fans of Jerry Gaskill of King's X and solo success, are uniting to to raise money to help with the devastating losses he and his wife Julie suffered during Hurricane Sandy. Jerry and Julie lost almost every material possession they owned and are displaced from their home.
I spoke with Jerry and he and Julie are ok, and very optimistic of the future, despite losing every material possession to this dreadful storm. It's been one helluva journey for him this year-cheating death, marrying his soul mate, a successful tour with Kansas, the announcement of a new solo project kicking off next month, and now this....
If you know Jerry, you already know that is it not in his DNA to ask for help....per Jerry's words "It's gonna be Alright"....... For me, Jerry has helped me in so many different way that past 3 years, that there is no real way that I could repay him. I'm going to do what I can, and hope you will join in. If you would like to help as well, my wife and I will match the first $1,000 that can be raised. Any gift you can give will be treated as a gift, and is not tax deductible. 3/12/12 12:24AM
the latest news, although baby steps. Very encouraging.
Update!! Julie when to see Jerry today, she said he was in a chair getting his hair
washed, Hes breathing on his own also. Good news!

Dug Pinnick's Facebook Fan Page
"Julie said Jerry woke up pulling chords out, she says hes fiesty! that's a good sign! thanks everyone for prayers and good vibes! it can only get better now!!!
Update! jerry is the same, heavily sedated and on the ventilator, they are going to try to take the balloon pump out tomorrow, thanks for everyones support!"
2/26/12 5:46PM
"Jerry had a heart attack last night. He was operated on and is in stable condition at the hospital. Were all waiting for more info. I will keep you posted" - dUg
As a longtime fan of King's X and his drumming, and having met/chatted with Jerry many times, my thoughts are totally with him, his family and any other King's X fans/fans of his, like myself.

"Jerry had a heart attack last night. He was operated on and is in stable condition at the hospital. Were all waiting for more info. I will keep you posted" - dUg
As a longtime fan of King's X and his drumming, and having met/chatted with Jerry many times, my thoughts are totally with him, his family and any other King's X fans/fans of his, like myself.

King's X: Dug Pinnick and Ty Tabor short interview
just a short clip shot late last year. Interesting perspective about where Dug and Ty are at. "The New Age" was awesome to hear live if I recall correctly.

King's X - 6/12/91 BURNING DOWN BOSTON (Jerry Gaskill Benefit)
http://molkenmusic.com/store/shop/details.php?id=50
Overview:
** NEW RELEASE - NOW AVAILABLE **
"Burning Down Boston: Live at The Channel 6.12.91" is a special MP3 download-only title. As many of you are aware, King's X drummer Jerry Gaskill suffered a serious heart attack in the early morning hours on Sunday 2.26.12. Many of you have overwhelmingly expressed a desire to help and contribute. We have compiled this exclusive live release from the archives -- and 100% of the proceeds from this release will go directly to Jerry to help offset mounting medical expenses. A big THANK YOU goes out to everyone for the outpouring of concern and love.
This release was edited and mastered from a stereo FOH recording. While the audio is far from perfect sonically, the performance documents yet another magical night on tour while supporting the "Faith Hope Love" album. While many of the song titles are familiar, the band expands many of the cuts featured here, including performances that are blistering ("Moanjam"),heavy and funk-laden ("We Are Finding Who We Are"), beautiful ("The Burning Down"), and truly transcendental ("Over My Head").
A few songs from the show were omitted due to tape damage. However, we have included three bonus tracks (an additional 15 minutes) from the same show that were not presented in the main track listing.
All recordings previously unreleased.
14 songs. 89 minutes.
Dear Friends, in addition to the gift with this download, please let anyone who wants to further make a personal gift to Jerry to help him with his medical bills know that they can send a check made out to Jerry Gaskill. Mail it to: Jerry Gaskill, c/o World Entertainment Inc., P.O. Box 3095, Sea Bright, NJ 07760. 100% of your gift goes to Jerry Gaskill to help him defray his medical bills. Jerry Gaskill is an individual and not a charity. Any funds given to him would be a gift and no further tax deduction for charitable contributions would be coming from him. We appreciate your help.
