Hi all!

I've uploaded the entire Skydiggers show from the Bathurst St. Theatre, here in Toronto from Dec. 6, 1992. It is an FM Broadcast so sound is great. Also, Gord Downie was at this show, and sang backup vocals on "I Will Give You Everything". I was at this show that evening, and met Gord after he sang, getting him to sign my Tragically Hip ticket for the upcoming Hip show at Massey Hall (happened to have that ticket in my wallet that night!!!)

Anyway, it's a great show with acoustic & full band performances. Probably my favourite Skydiggers recording to listen to.

Enjoy!

The other day I was looking around for Rory Young's website, the one with his massive tape list that had a G.D. quote for each show... anyone know if that list is kicking around anywhere?

Hi all,

First off, an apology to those I have bumped off the server the past few weeks...

I have been doing more and more work from home, and I could just not get stuff done efficiently with 0 bandwidth. So, I had to shut the server down numerous times the past month.

So, I am going to set the server on a timer that will allow connections Monday - Friday 12AM - 5PM, closed Saturday and Sunday.

Sorry to have to do this, but connecting to work is painfully slow when users are connected and downloading.

Also, I will be moving (hopefully) sometime in June. I plan to get the server up and running as soon as I can, but I won't know how long I'll be without Road Runner.

I'll reply to this post when the server will be going down for the move - and again when it goes back online.

Hope you are still enjoying the site.

Talk to you later,

Jerremy

The museum now has 91 songs and over 180 references on display from all 10 albums.

The folks around here have been invaluable in both spreading the word and helping with content, a debt I'll try to replay by not making anymore shamless plugs after this one.

Thanks again to Chris, Wendy, Casey, Shannon, Lance, Scott, Ope's, Cfern, Sfissel, Gibby, LB, Jenna, Stroud... and everybody else I'm forgetting.

Canadian Press

4/26/2005

NEW YORK (AP) - Alex Rodriguez's teammates made him wait until the fans worked themselves into a frenzy worthy of a three-homer night. They clapped to the music and chanted ''A-Rod! A-Rod!'' until he finally stepped onto the top step of the dugout and raised both hands over his head.

Rodriguez's biggest night with the New York Yankees was over a year in the making, and everybody at Yankee Stadium was in a celebratory mood.

Rodriguez hit three home runs in his first three at-bats and became only the 11th major league player with 10 or more RBIs in a game, leading New York over the Los Angeles Angels 12-4 Tuesday night.

''Definitely tonight was one of those magical nights,'' Rodriguez said. ''I've hit three home runs twice before, but nothing feels as special as this, doing it in New York, doing it in the pinstripes.''

The marquee matchup might have been across town at Shea Stadium, where the Mets' Pedro Martinez lost to Atlanta's John Smoltz, but it was A-Rod who put on the biggest show in New York.

Each of his home runs came with two outs against Bartolo Colon (3-2) in the first four innings and drew rousing ovations from the Yankees' fans, who have been reluctant to embrace the $252 million US star since he was acquired before the 2004 season.

''He hasn't lived up to what he's capable of doing,'' manager Joe Torre said. ''I think this is why it takes time. When he does something like this, he wants to duplicate it. Sometimes he expects too much of himself.''

He added a run-scoring single in the sixth off Kevin Gregg and finished one RBI shy of the AL record of 11 set by the Yankees' Tony Lazzeri in 1936. The major league record of 12 is shared by the St. Louis Cardinals' Jim Bottomley (1924) and Mark Whiten (1993).

Nomar Garciaparra had been the last player with 10 RBIs in a game, accomplishing the feat for Boston against Seattle on May 10, 1999.

''Right after I hit that last base hit up the middle, it felt like I was in the clouds - you just don't want it to end,'' said Rodriguez, the first player to have 10 RBIs in a game at Yankee Stadium.

Rodriguez hit the 11th grand slam of his career in the fourth inning after hitting a three-run shot in the first and a two-run homer in the third, all two-out drives. Coming in, he had been 2-for-13 (.154) this year with runners in scoring position and two outs.

''I never really find Bartolo Colon very hittable,'' said Rodriguez, who increased his RBIs total to 25 and is tied with Boston's Manny Ramirez and Baltimore's Miguel Tejada for the major league lead.

His homer in the first, which followed two walks, landed over the 399-foot marker in left-centre. When his long fly in the third landed in the Angels' bullpen in left field, the crowd of 36,328 stood and cheered until Rodriguez appeared out of the dugout one pitch into the next at-bat.

The fans stood throughout his at-bat in the fourth and camera strobes flashed. Torre said ''everybody in the dugout became a fan.''

Rodriguez worked the count to 3-2 and fouled off several pitches before hitting a drive off the front of the centre-field bleachers, just beyond the 408-foot sign.

''It was a fun matchup, bases loaded, the fans going crazy,'' Rodriguez said.

While Rodriguez walked to the plate in the eighth inning for his final at-bat, Strauss' Also sprach Zarathustra, played dramatically over the public address system. Rodriguez hit a hard liner to centre and was again greeted with loud applause from the fans, who then began a quick run for the exits with a 12-3 lead. Rodriguez was given the ninth inning off.

Rodriguez's performance overshadowed Carl Pavano's first win in pinstripes. He pitched effectively for seven innings, often falling behind in the count but only getting into real trouble against a potent Angels lineup in the third when he walked two and gave up an RBI single to Vladimir Guerrero and run-scoring grounder to Garret Anderson.

Pavano (2-2), whose previous victory was at Toronto last week, gave up three runs and seven hits.

''When there's runs on the board or not, I've got to make my pitches and stick to my plan,'' said Pavano, who was disappointed by two walks he gave up in the third.

Colon had allowed just one run in 15 innings over two starts. Each of Rodriguez's home runs followed bouts of wildness; Colon walked five in 3 2-3 innings and gave up 10 runs - five earned. Giving up the longball has always been a problem for Colon, but he had allowed just one in 27 2-3 innings through his first four starts this season.

''I made mistakes,'' Colon said. ''As good a hitter as he is, he took advantage of those mistakes. He was not chasing. He was sitting on my fastball very well.''

Bernie Williams had an RBI grounder on one of Chone Figgins' two errors in the fourth and Jorge Posada added an RBI groundout for New York.

Notes: Rodriguez now has 388 homers, good for 46th place. ... After stealing two bases Tuesday, the Angels have 11 stolen bases in last five games. ... The Mets-Braves game drew 31,511. ... Colter Bean made his major league debut in relief of Pavano. ... Rodriguez hit two home runs and had six RBIs on April 18.
