“This shot of Jimi was taken during a soundcheck at the Monterey Pop Festival, 1967. Jimi was playing to an empty arena — or, more accurately, to himself. I was one of the official photographers and, for some reason, everyone was at dinner except Al Kooper, Jimi’s band and crew, and some of the other stage hands. I approached Jimi and told him my name was Jim Marshall — that I was one of the photographers. He made some comment like, ‘Far out, man, maybe this shit is supposed to be,’ and I asked what he meant. He said the dude who made his amps was named Jim Marshall, and smart-ass me says, ‘Yeah, I know that.’ But then he said, ‘What you don’t know is that my middle name is Marshall.’ We were all pretty stoned (the amp Marshall wasn’t there), but there were three Marshalls onstage at once.” - Jim Marshall February 3, 1936 – March 24, 2010

Depends on Who You Ask.

“……Take your favorite artist, the one you look up to and see as the perfect specimen of talent, values, output, whatever the case may be – and someone else has a reason why they’re not worth even a passing glance. Is “Bob Dylan: Don’t Look Back” the documentary of a genius iconoclast or was he a self absorbed pseudo-intellectual bully? It depends on who you ask. Is Jay-Z the reigning king of hip hop or is he “all business” now? It depends on who you ask. I bring up both names because if you ask me, I put them at the top of my list of people who can do very little if no wrong at all, but it won’t take long to read someone’s opposing point of view. If you’re not sure of what you love, that means you can be talked out of it, and that’s a slippery slope……” - JM One Forty Plus

RIP Remix Manifesto is a documentary I saw a few weeks ago about the current copyright issues in the entertainment industry, more info here. You can watch it here for free. It’s pretty cool, if you’re interested in music and how things are regarding illegal sharing ect. it’ll be worth watching

I re-did the rotating background theme and made this mix of the old and new style. The backgrounds were way too distracting, taking the attention away from the actual posted pictures and such.

Trip: “A going from one place to another; a journey. / An intense, stimulating, or exciting experience: a power trip”

Trip will be this recurring title, just like ‘Hobo of the week’ once was (2010-come-back…Maus!?), it will contain cool stuff found on the interweb like pictures, videos, music, sites, the usual stuff. Just like people do on Tumblr and Stumbleupon … but then over here.

“We live in a country that seems to be in this massive state of delusion, where the idea of what you are is more important than you actually being that. And it actually works as long as everybody’s winking at the same time. And then if one person stops winking, you just beat the crap out of that person and then they either start winking or they go somewhere else.” Branford Marsalis – Before The Music Dies

Bill Frissell – Little Girl from the album ‘Disfarmer‘. Beautiful record with songs inspired by photographer Michael Disfarmer, it’s amazing how some have a Philip Glass like immensity to them.

The Sixty One named after highway 61, is a website were artists can show and sell their music with the intention to get around the record-deal like payments, making more profit on their sales. Besides that it’s got quite a fancy interface for browsing the music on there.
