which is in twenty eleven and they have their web site black cat habitat dot com a right we're almost there tommy and that's kind of where i was the we were still struggling and you might not knowing and here's the thing about this  oh wow peter's they play there almost every other month or something august twenty sixth they're going to be at john peters again is that a sunday or saturday sunday sunday afternoon all right thank you very much blackout habitat home because you're probably watching at home anyway and the show is basically me as a puppet and my friend doug as a puppet and we're talking about our own selves in our own lives in our own damn music and we play it and that's what the that's what the show is we've been doing mark is a long time princeton resident here thank you mark former local wine shop owner of cool amateur songwriter and they're at least talented guitar hack or so he says as i was coming up here after that very thick been before me mind of a moment on the woodstock recording of crosby stills nash and young where they just played america should express and the audience is jumping around dancing and then neil young walks up and he sets up as i am and he says here's a song that's guaranteed to bring you right down it's called don't let it bring you down and so i'm just i'm thinkin that that's the with where the energy going to go a little bit here but i'm going to try to i'm going to try to keep it going my my set and i titled my set who stole my electric guitar because all of this music is done on acoustic but none of it was written on acoustic it was performed on acoustic before but i find it interesting to to translate some of those electric songs into music and see how it goes so this first one is from an old album nine hundred seventy one a song that nobody seems to really know what it's about but the energy of the from a james bond movie the seventh movie i believe it was and and originally the song that was written as the theme song was denied by the producer harry saltzman because he thought the lyrics were too racy they can stimulate tease me i can see every you next song is from a couple years later nine hundred seventy three and it was written by roger waters when he turned twenty eight which interestingly is the year that psychologists say is where we stop wishing that we were older and start wishing that we were younger it's sort of that inflection point in life and this is a song that he wrote about the passing of time sun then show you the way all right one more for you and this is the least acoustic of all of them it's a song that kind of just starts a little story about a guy named axel and a guy named slash you can probably figure out what band it is and slash was just around the guitar playing something he called his circus riff he thought it sounded like a circus calliope and the band liked it so they started making a song from it slash never really liked it that much was kind of hoping that they would just let it go go away but it turned out to be one of their biggest just started saying where do we go where do we go from here and i think you'll know what i mean when i get to that part  because we have the incredible talker pickel here and mary watched talk about to do so so come on up tucker and tucker is a twenty year old singer songwriter guitarist set to attend berklee college of music this  fall yeah incorporating elements of blues and jazz into his songwriting tucker mixes the vibes of all that gins like bill withers with new artists like jack johnson and john mayer into his unique sound and he has a sound me i don't think i need to introduce myself again although my last name has become but it's all it's been put out no no no no no no no no it's all it's honestly it's all right it's been mispronounced so many times i might as well change it at this point so i could write all the originals in the world and be happy but i couldn't do anything without some of my influences and i like country music a little bit to chris table to country music for nothing else and i mean i just want to i want to try this this is i love you much how much time to be a left out of curiosity stuff on it pretty soon and either way it'll get some new stuff by the time i get to boston in september and yeah i hope you're enjoying this is another original tune called different up here so we'll have another set up moment here but it's definitely going to be worth it the blurry minds we are this is t b m the blurry minds we are a factory of daydreams and nightmares footsoldiers to protect and advance the vision of our own clarity by blurring the lines between conscious thought and tangible movement the echoing words or describe truths we need to output in fear of disappearing we want to make the word world a more livable place for our expanding and we are the foot soldiers we are tommy the foot soldiers who mines for those of you who don't remember this is their third time here in the border mine says it was like last year they didn't we did the worm which was one of my favorite gong show song
