Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Well, as I said before, the music has to on a computer before you can put it on an iPod. If, once you've "sync'd" the tunes on your computer and iPod you disonnected your iPod and then wiped all the tunes off your computer, the tracks would still stay on the iPod, but the next time you con...

Point to MrFoyle as Joe Meek was the slightly trickier part of the question. Continue....

It was "As We Go Along" - a song worth checking out.

Easier:
Which famous music persons died on Feb 3 1959? And which famous music person commited suicide on the same date eight years later?

DrJ

No. Don't you love those Nesmith songs where the title has nothing to do with the song? Tapioca Tundra, Nine Times Blue, Carlisle Wheeling, Daily Nightly...

I'll give it a few more hours. Here be the clues:

Sung by Dolenz

Ron's playing Dublin in Sept http://www.ticketmaster.ie/cgi/asp_events/byid.asp?event_id=180038D5E613B997&category=CONCERTS Yeah I was happy when I heard this, then I realised I wont be living in Dublin in Septemebr. This is happening a lot: re gigs by The Hives and The White Stripes/New York D...

D'oh. Missed it.

DrJ

Er, no. It's an obscure one, but tis one of their most beautiful tracks.

DrJ

This is true, but when you stick a CD into iTunes just go to the "Advanced" menu and choose "Get CD Track Names" and it goes online and fills all that out for you.

DrJ

Do you have all your music burnes to your pc then DrJ? I imagine that must have taken an age, and then to burn it to the pod as well! :shock: Yeah I bought a 250Gb external hard drive for my iMac about two months ago with the idea of ripping all my CDs. I also thought it'd be useful as I'm moving f...

No. I refer the right honourable gentleman to the answer I gave some moments ago. The music you want to put on your iPod has to already be on a computer either "ripped" from a cd of stolen/borrowed off the net. So think twice if you're going to buy a 40Gb iPod and your computer only has a ...

nope

drj

Woo.

Neil Young and Ry Cooder play together on which Monkees track?

DrJ

I'm going to step up to the plate as an Apple fan and all purpose nerd. I bought an iPod just after they came out in November 2001 and although my model is just a 5Gb original (holding, at a push 1,200 songs) it has been the most worthwhile gizmo I've ever bought (and I've bought a lot of gizmos). N...

Points for everyone!!! Because winning's important. Tim(E)'s questions stands, and I'll guess Chilli Willi and the Red Hot Peppers, purely coz of the name clue.

DrJ

It was a casino in Montreaux, but I don't know the name. Off hand I can't remember what caused the fire.

DrJ

Rudolph Hess in a tutu.

It's worth looking at http://www.b3ta.com every friday for the latest in this kind of thing. Can I recommend these two:

I want to know where Dr. J's sig comes from.... and I think it's time to change mine. It's an onamatapoeic rendering of the noise at the end of the music used on Countdown. And I thinks it's time to change it too. I used to use "Crying wont bring your dog back, unless your tears smell of dog f...

I see. The "Who's-In-Town-and-we'll-them-the-award" Awards. Although I'm in a Ray Davies space these days. Look what's out over the weekend...

My Love? But I think Gilli could be right.

DrJ

That's very magnanimous but you got it right Martin, as the question looked for the name of the band.

Such gentlemanly conduct, why can't we act like a normal message board:
Y wuz emme kikd out of teh bb house, she wuz da best!!!!!11111 etc.etc.

DrJ

I believe that's right: WALHFMF was called Bad Finger Boogie at one point.

DrJ

The thread must not die...

DrJ

Well done you.

Off you go...

DrJ

Flattery will get you everywhere...

OK...

Here are the original names of five pretty well known acts, name their current monikers (all of them are still releasing records)...

HalfNelson
The Hype
Seymour
Rain
The Dust Brothers
