Celebration Rock with Steven Hyden (PJ Audio History)

[Tuolumne]

it is kinda tiresome...specially the whole last names stuff...just talk about Jeff or Dave. Please.

The last name stuff kills me. I age about 5 years every time he starts purposely fumbling through Abbruzzese. I think I planned a whole vacation while he was going " Dave Abbruzow ... Abbuzessay .. Abbrruzesyaii .... Abburzesalamiomi ... Abburzessalazookipooki ...". Shut up already.

It's pronounced Abbru-zeese, right? It's not that hard

And every time he says the same.

I guarantee that Jessica can pronounce Ament AND Abbruzzese.

Oh shit, Jessica Letkemann? She was one of the original folks behind Five Horizons. Last I knew, she was writing for Billboard.

You're thinking Caryn Rose. Jessica wrote/writes for TwoFeetThick.

si.

These were the old Five Horizons authors: Caryn Rose, Jean Bruns, Andrew Dunn, Carl Sylvester, Chris Mansfield.

I know Rose wrote for Backstreets for a while. I wonder if any of them are still PJ fans.

I finished the Vitalogy episode, it was fun to listen to these guys talking about this album, the band and those days...I think i liked it more than the Vs episode though i loved how much they discussed Jeff´s powerful presence around that time in that one. I been into a huge PJ kick these days, listening to the studio albums and boots from that era...

I love PJ.


Should we make a conversation with rmers about their relationship with the band?

I would love to this.

Hmm, we could definitely put something together.

Huh. I legit did not know that. I thought it was Abbru-zee-zee. Though, I have heard people say Abbur-zee-zee, too. But come on. That's clearly dyslexic.

Lets do this.

Episode 6 is up. Binaural and Riot Act.

this was really good - letkemann obviously knows her shit. had some great stuff to say about riot act towards the end.

I liked this episode. But as an uber Riot Act fan I felt a tad hollow by the end. Far too much time was spent talking about their live shows an the bootlegs for my taste. It's, I think, the longest episode of the series so far, but you could cut down time spent on Binaural and Riot Act to about 30 minutes.

She did offer some great insights toward the end, for sure. But I really wanted more talk about the records. Also, though, I understand that the band became a "touring" band around this time and all the stuff they tackle with Roskilde is so important to the shape and future of the band. I get why they focused so much on that stuff. But I'm one of the few who really likes PJ's studio work. I don't think every song is better live or is reinvented or fully realized live on stage.

[evenslow]

agreed

[Farmer John]

This guy's got to be trolling with the way he pronounces things.

BIN-aural? That's not how you say it, is it?

And how do you say Roskilde?

He says Roskilde correctly. AND he says Binaural correctly when he's talking to Jessica. She says it correctly and he does too. But he says it in such a weird and stupid way every time he says it when he's not talking to her. It's so weird.
