Hi folks, as the title says, why did Dave stop working with Steve Lillywhite as a producer? I know that Steve produced another DMB down the road, but what was the reason for the original split? I have read some stuff that said the label forced it, Carter said the band wasn't "feeling it", etc. I'm wondering if anyone here has any real insight.

Not trying to start a debate, but I always felt those original DMB albums really benefitted from Lillywhite's production, and then you get Everyday, which...I'm not a fan...and then you get Busted Stuff (originally produced by Steve Lillywhite), and it's a friggin' masterpiece as well, but then they never worked together again after that (for awhile anyway). Seems like Steve was a big part of that band early on.

Any info appreciated! Thanks!

Always been a fan of Guster and DMB, especially their albums produced by Steve Lillywhite. I remember reading that if you like albums made by a particular producer, see what else they've been a part of.

Here are some albums produced by Steve Lillywhite. If I like Lost and Gone Forever, and Before These Crowded streets, any other albums from that page I should look into?

I'm just really curious about all the stuff Ev worked on with Steve Lillywhite. Has there been any tracks from that session ever heard? Even like a 30 sec clip.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Perhaps it is because this past weekend was Thanksgiving in Canada. Perhaps it is because I’m feeling in a Prog Rock kinda mood. Maybe it is because Limelight was on the radio the other day. Maybe I’m just missing Neil Peart.

Whatever the reason, this week we are going to look at another quintessential Canadian band. They had one of the greatest drummers and lyricists of all time, paired with an amazing guitarist and maybe the most caucasian dude ever on a killer bass and vocals.

Yup. Time to Fly By Night. This week we look at RUSH.

About them

Rush are totally from Toronto, Canada - the neighborhood of Willowdale, to be exact. In the late 60’s, guitarist Alex Lifeson was looking to form a band. He and his buddy John Rutsey had been tight for years. They added bassist Jeff Jones to the mix and the three of them formed a band. They even had a gig in a church basement. They needed a name and Rutsey’s brother Bill suggested Rush. It stuck.

That first gig led to a second. But just hours before Rush were to perform, Jones dipped to go to a party instead. So Lifeson and Rutsey had a choice: cancel the gig, or get someone else.

So they cancelled the gig and Rush fell apart. The End.

Oh wait. They didn’t do that. Instead, Lifeson asked another friend, Gary Weinrib, to step in to play bass and sing lead. Weinrib agreed. Jones just straight up quit/was not invited to return, so Weinrib became the front man. He also decided that Gary Weinrib was not a real Rock Star name. So he adopted the stage name Geddy Lee.

I’d love to be able to tell you that it was a simple progression from there to the trio we all know today, but that would not be the truth. Let’s just say that there were multiple lineup changes and a shit-ton of nonsense before that happened. After three years of new members, expanding the band, collapsing the band, name changes and general dicking around, in 1971 they settled on a power trio of Lifeson, Lee, and Rutsey.

It was this power trio that played everything from [Hig

Do your worst!

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

Because she wanted to see the task manager.

Heard they've been doing some shady business.

BamBOO!

They’re on standbi

Pilot on me!!

Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.

This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.

If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.

Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.

Or would that be too forward thinking?

music touched by super producer Steve Lillywhite

Yup. We’ve reached BOTW #69.

Nice.

Well, if you can’t be classy, at least be classic. Time for us to check out another monster band. This week we look at U2.

About them

I know a Rock Star name when I hear it. And nothing screams Rock more than the name Lawrence Joseph Mullen Jr. Rolls right off the tongue.

But U2 fans know that without Larry, there is no band.

He was born in Dublin, Ireland in 1961. He grew up playing drums in marching bands (because only the coolest drummers are in marching bands) and developed a distinctive, martial style of playing. But when he was attending Mount Temple Comprehensive School in 1976, he decided that he wanted to give up the glitz and glamor of playing at Football matches and instead fill massive stadiums with rabid fans.

So he did the only sane thing he could: he put up a poster on a message board to recruit some people to play in a band. And when I say message board, I mean one made of cork. On a wall. None of your fancy ones-and-zeros electronica here. This was old school. Quite literally, since he posted it on a board in an old school.

Six people responded to the poster. So, better than Kijiji, with 100% less stalkers.

One of those who showed up to join the Larry Mullen band was Paul Hewson. Hewson was also a Dubliner, born there in 1960. He was the second son of a mixed Irish family. Mixed, in this context, meaning that his dad was Catholic and his mom was not. Remember that in Ireland they had decade after decade of religious and political strife.

Hewson’s mother died in 1974. So when Mullen Jr. posted his flyer, he got an angry, wounded, political young man who was still in mourning for his lost mom. That’s some genuine portrait-of-the-artist-as-a-young-man stuff right there. He had something to say, and something to prove. Plus the dude could sing.

Fun fact: Hewson was in a gang. Yup. He was a banger. Just remember that in Ireland, a banger is a sausage, so it may not have been as tough as it sounds. Part of the initiation into this gang was getting a nickname. The one that stuck on him, beca
