What are you listening to right now!?

Just came back from a Deep Purple gig. Oh my good god! What was that?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Opened with Pictures of Home, then Things I've never said, Livin' Wreck, Fireball, Rapture of the Deep, Wrong Man, guitar solo including some Beatles, Guns n' Roses, Led Zeppelin and classical pieces. After that came When a blind man cries, Lazy (the best arranged version I've ever listened), Highway Star, Perfect Strangers, Space Truckin', awesome organ solo, including Brasileirinho, the 2001 theme, the Star Wars theme and more. Then Smoke on the Water and Deep Purple went away. We kept asking for Black Night moaning it. They came back in after two or so minutes and played not only Black Night, but Hush as well, and an outstanding bass solo.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm blown away. So is my right ear.

Frank Zappa - JOE'S GARAGE!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A boring old garage in a residential area with a teenage

 

 

 

band rehearsing in it. JOE (the main character in the CENTRAL

 

 

 

SCRUTINIZER'S Special Presentation) sings to us of the trials

 

 

 

and tribulations of garage- band husbandry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

JOE:

 

 

 

It wasn't very large

 

 

 

There was just enough room to cram the drums

 

 

 

In the corner over by the Dodge

 

 

 

It was a fifty-four

 

 

 

With a mashed up door

 

 

 

And ÃÆÃâÃâà cheesy little amp

 

 

 

With a sign on the front said

 

 

 

"Fender Champ"

 

 

 

And a second-hand guitar

 

 

 

It was a Stratocaster with a whammy bar

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At this point, LARRY(a guy who will eventually give up music

 

 

 

and earn a respectable living as a roadie for a group called Toad-O)

 

 

 

joins in the song...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

LARRY:

 

 

 

We could jam in Joe's Garage

 

 

 

His mama was screamin'

 

 

 

His dad was mad

 

 

 

We was playin' the same old song

 

 

 

In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would

 

 

 

Play it all night long

 

 

 

It was all we knew, 'n' easy too

 

 

 

So we wouldn't get it wrong

 

 

 

All we did was bend the string like...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hey!

 

 

 

Down in Joe's Garage

 

 

 

We didn't have no dope or LSD

 

 

 

But a coupla quartsa beer

 

 

 

Would fix it so the intonation

 

 

 

Would not offend yer ear

 

 

 

And the same old chords goin' over 'n' over

 

 

 

Became a symphony

 

 

 

We would play it again 'n' again 'n' again

 

 

 

'Cause it sounded good to me

 

 

 

ONE MORE TIME!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We could jam in Joe's Garage

 

 

 

His mama was screamin', "TURN IT DOWN!"

 

 

 

We was playin' the same old song

 

 

 

In the afternoon 'n' sometimes we would

 

 

 

Play it all night long

 

 

 

It was all we knew, and easy too

 

 

 

So we wouldn't get it wrong

 

 

 

Even if you played it on a saxophone

 

 

 

We thought we was pretty good

 

 

 

We talked about keepin' the band together

 

 

 

'N' we figured that we should

 

 

 

'Cause about this time we was gettin' the eye

 

 

 

From the girls in the neighborhood

 

 

 

They'd all come over 'n' dance around like...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Twenty teen-age girls dash in and go STOMP-CLAP, STOMP-CLAP-CLAP...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So we picked out ÃÆÃâÃâà stupid name

 

 

 

Had some cards printed up for a coupla bucks

 

 

 

'N' we was on our way to fame

 

 

 

Got matching suits

 

 

 

'N' Beatle Boots

 

 

 

'N' a sign on the back of the car

 

 

 

'N' we was ready to work in a GO-GO Bar

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ONE TWO THREE FOUR

 

 

 

LET'S SEE IF YOU GOT SOME MORE!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

People seemed to like our song

 

 

 

They got up 'n' danced 'n made a lotta noise

 

 

 

An' it wasn't 'fore very long

 

 

 

A guy from a company we can't name

 

 

 

Said we oughta take his pen

 

 

 

'N' sign on the line for a real good time

 

 

 

But he didn't tell us when

 

 

 

These "good times" would be somethin'

 

 

 

That was really happenin

 

 

 

So the band broke up

 

 

 

An' it looks like

 

 

 

We will never play again...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

JOE:

 

 

 

Guess you only get one chance in life

 

 

 

To play a song that goes like...

 

 

 

And, as the band plays their little song,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MRS. BORG (who keeps her son, SY, in the closet with the vacuum cleaner)

 

 

 

screams out the window...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MRS. BORG:

 

 

 

Turn it down! Turn it DOWN! I have children sleeping here...

 

 

 

Don't you boys know any nice songs?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

JOE:

 

 

 

(Speculating on the future)

 

 

 

Well the years was rollin' by

 

 

 

Heavy Metal 'n Glitter Rock

 

 

 

Had caught the public eye

 

 

 

Snotty boys with lipstick on

 

 

 

Was really flyin' high

 

 

 

'N' then they got that Disco thing

 

 

 

'N' New Wave came along

 

 

 

'N' all of a sudden I thought the time

 

 

 

Had come for that old song

 

 

 

We used to play in "Joe's Garage"

 

 

 

And if I am not wrong

 

 

 

You will soon be dancin to...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER:

 

 

 

The WHITE ZONE is for loading and unloading only. If you gotta load or

 

 

 

unload, go to the WHITE ZONE. You'll love it...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

JOE:

 

 

 

Well the years was rollin' by (etc.)...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MRS. BORG:

 

 

 

I'm calling THE POLICE!

 

 

 

There! I did it! They'll be here...shortly!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OFFICER BUTZIS:

 

 

 

This is the Police...

 

 

 

We have the garage surrounded

 

 

 

If you come out with your hands up

 

 

 

We guarantee you won't be harmed

 

 

 

Or hurt, neither (SWAT Team 4, move in!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MRS. BORG:

 

 

 

He used to cut my grass... He was a very nice boy...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER:

 

 

 

This is the CENTRAL SCRUTINIZER...

 

 

 

That was Joe's first confrontation with The Law.

 

 

 

Naturally, we were easy on him.

 

 

 

One of our friendly counselors gave him

 

 

 

A do-nut... and told him to

 

 

 

Stick closer to church-oriented social activities.

dEUS, little arithmethics.

 

 

 

dEUS is my favourite Belgian band, and there's a lot of good music from merry old Belgium. If any of you rock fanatics do not know them, be sure to check them out. They're praised by all good rock artists as one of the best current bands even though they're not particulary famous outside Belgium.
