really hoping it's not ringo. he wasn't that great. the beatles will die with paul.
sorry to inform you the beatles are dead. john and george have long since passed away and the "rumor" that "paul is dead" fills in here nicely for the death of the beatles. paul is paul now, a former beatle at best.
Frank Zappa: That's right, you have to be suspicious of the information. That's why it says, "Information is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom".
Bob Marshall: What is "Information"
Frank Zappa: Any data that comes in. Somebody presents you with something. Like, I walk up to you and say, "Two and two is eleven". That's some information. It's bad information, but it's information. O.K. Now, if somebody comes up to you and says "Two and two is eleven", and they have the Presidential Seal on their coat, and they got bunting waving in the background, and balloons go up, you might consider it for a minute. So, that's information. Information is not knowledge. Knowledge is the point at which you know something, O.K. Now, wisdom is the idea that you have a bank of facts. To behave wisely, you have to deploy those facts in some way. You can deploy them stupidly or you can deploy them wisely. So, information is not knowledge. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is not truth. You can take all the sorted pieces of information which gives you a knowledge base. You can act in what you believe is a wise procedure, but that is not necessarily any ultimate truth. And just because something is an ultimate truth doesn't mean it's beautiful. And just because something is beautiful certainly doesn't mean you have to love it. Because there's lots of ugly stuff that you could love, too. I mean, I love my dog. Not a particularly attractive dog, but that's a wonderful dog.

SDPD is Smokin dave and the Primo Dopes we had gotten that well before the clue.
i thought this was the key guys. he said if we solved the first anagram and got a clue it would hep us solve the 2nd anagram easier which would lead to the big prize. if the sdpd anagram was the first anagram....does anyone remember the 2nd anagram?
I really think we need to focus on this plus the dancing clues.
Todd Steed = Toddzilla of "Apelife" and his bar band is called "Opposable Thumbs"
When encountering a work by Knoxville's finest example of Musical Multiple Personality Syndrome, Todd Steed, a.k.a. Smokin' Dave when he plays with the Premo Dopes and as Toddzilla when he performs with Apelife (see our previous review of Apelife's "Natural Selections"), you need to bring both your head and your body. Or we could just keep it simple and say your sense of humor, your dancing shoes, a couple of twelve-packs, a dozen bottles of Boone's Farm and any left-handed cigarettes that just happen to be lying around the home front....
Information is not knowledge, knowledge is not wisdom, and wisdom is not foresight.
"But it is vital to remember that information – in the sense of raw data – is not knowledge; that knowledge is not wisdom; and that wisdom is not foresight. But information is the first essential step to all of these." - Arthur C. Clarke
Information is not knowledge, Knowledge is not wisdom, Wisdom is not truth, Truth is not beauty, Beauty is not love, Love is not music and Music is THE BEST." -- Frank Zappa

Great find bw! You think we should pay more attention to this? Because it is talking about bad information being given to us. I mean depending on who gives us the info is how likely we are to believe it.....So should we be cautious about what we are believing?
"Steed is accompanied by fellow Disgracelanders bassist Paul Noe and drummer David Jenkins, both former members of Knoxville's Judybats and longtime musicians and engineers associated with many Knoxville projects. As might be expected, they both demonstrate a lot of savvy musicianship on "Chicks Ahoy," making this three-man unit sound very big indeed"
i dont know if any of that means anything but it talks about other knoxville projects

i think following the sd pd anagram would be the best thing for us to do cause thats what djjd was trying to get us to figure out for days...then we kind of got lost. i know he posted two anagrams at same time though and the sd pd one was just one of them. does anyone remember the other one or can find it?
Post 18 listen to radio bonnaroo for more informational information that i hope is informative. other thread on this board already has the clue and doesn't know it!
Post 19 who else was in 200 motels? Ahh, never mind that. --- chew on dis pd sd pndo fr het prgou neocni hpsree llvie (First anagram)
post 20 How much money would you put on this bet? Flo and Eddie guess from above was amusing. Ca va?? le podes ukleawpur tac 4 med uygs (second anagram)
Post 21 SORRY-- ukleawpur should be kelu parwmu
Post 22 Ooooooooh- somebody is getting close ot gnvlos taw hte ak-shual uelk zi. once they get that- it's where the real work begins. Farmhand is impressed.
Post 23 solve the first anagram and you'll be a lot closer to getting the second one and the grand prize, too.

and, i think Todd Steed is absolutely djjd or one of the djjd's. maybe it's been mentioned, but he hosts Studio 865, a sweet local tv/radio show out of UT-Knoxville...
wisdom is not knowledge knowledge is not beauty beauty is not music music is the best
Lyrics to "Packard Goose" from "Joe's Garage"
Joe:
Maybe you thought I was the Packard Goose Or the Ronald MacDonald of the nouveau-abstruse Well f*ck all them people, I don't need no excuse For being what I am Do you hear me, then?
All them rock 'n roll writers is the worst kind of sleaze Selling punk like some new kind of English disease Is that the wave of the future? Aw, spare me please!
Oh no, you gotta go Who do you write for? I wanna know I believe you is the government's whore And keeping peoples dumb (I'm really dumb) Is where you're coming from And keeping peoples dumb (I'm really dumb) Is where you're coming from
F*ck all them writers with the pen in their hand I will be more specific so they might understand They can all kiss my ass But because it's so grand They best just stay away Hey, hey, hey
Hey, Joe, who did you blow? Moe pushed the button boy And you went to the show Better suck a little harder or the shekels won't flow And I don't mean your thumb (Don't mean your thumb) So on your knees you bum Just tell yourself it's yum (Yourself it's yum) And suck it till you're numb
Journalism's kinda scary And of it we should be wary Wonder what became of Mary?
Voice Of Mary's Vision:
Hi! It's me . . . the girl from the bus . . . Remember? The last tour? Well . . . Information is not knowledge Knowledge is not wisdom Wisdom is not truth Truth is not beauty Beauty is not love Love is not music Music is THE BEST . . . Wisdom is the domain of the Wis (which is extinct) Beauty is a French phonetic corruption Of a short cloth neck ornament Currently in resurgence . . .
Joe:
If you're in the audience and like what we do Well, we want you to know that we like you all too But as for the sucker who will write the review If his mind is prehensile (Mind is prehensile) He'll put down his pencil (Put down his pencil) And have himself a squat On the Cosmic Utensil (Cosmic Utensil) Give it all you got On the Cosmic Utensil (Cosmic Utensil) Sit 'n spin until you rot On the Cosmic Utensil (Cosmic Utensil) He really needs to squat On the Cosmic Utensil (Cosmic Utensil) (Cosmic Utensil)
Now that I got that over with I'll just play my imaginary guitar again Hey . . . hah . . . soundin' pretty good there, me! Ah . . . get down . . . UH! Boy, what an imagination! Love myself better than I love myself . . . I think . . . What tone! Sounds like an Elegant Gypsy! What is that? Musk? It's hip!
John: We don't even understand our own music Spider: It doesn't, does it matter whether we understand it? At least it'll give us . . . strength John: I know but maybe we could get into it more if we understood it

kelu parwmu tac 4 med uygs = 2nd anagram
assume we solved the 1st anagram correctly....smokin dave and the primo dopes opend once in sphere ville (knoxville)
2nd anagram = clue - warmup act 4 dem guys
did smokin dave warmup for someone at bonnaroo before? or do we need to figure out who smokin dave opened for in knoxville then take that band and find out who they were a warmup for?
Post by themeyersman on Apr 16, 2008 11:04:02 GMT -5
oh and EMD is an obscure swedish band in case its not really "dem" guys....im a little skeptical that it is the word "dem" why wouldnt he just say "mhet" for them if it was them guys....idk.

He has been using phonetic spelling to make the anagrams harder.
fwiw, Smokin Dave and the Premo Dopes played in the troo music lounge on Thursday night last year. Playing the lounge after them was Langhorne Slim then Dubconscious then the Whigs. SDPD also appeared on the Solar Stage and as part of Bonna Rouge in '07.Not very useful info, I guess...

smokin dave and the primo dopes opened for REM in Knoxville in 1982. this is the solution to the first anagram.
the second anagram seems to mean that a warmup band (opening band) for REM will be part of the announcement. the answer isn't REM themselves. it's someone who opened for them.
in one of my posts yesterday i listed bands that have opened for REM in the past and pointed out that Modest Mouse will be opening for them on their upcoming tour.

yea i like the route we're taking now. another clue i forgot about that could be relevant is the 05-07 clue. he pretty much told us that there was a person who played in the cafe lounge at bonnaroo in 05 and 07 but was with different bands.

check it out and see what you think.
No offence but I think Modest Mouse is a little small for all this fuss. Also it could be whao has REM opened for. Also Smokin Dave is a big local Knoxville band, they have opened for a lot of folks over the tears so I don't know that we should just concentrate on REM.
