If you guys enjoy this stuff, check out a series of albums called "pickin on" There are probably around a hundred or so albums of nothing but bluegrass covers. Some of my favorites include
Pickin on classic rock
Pickin on green day
Pickin on AC/DC
Pickin on the White stripes
Pickin on widespread panic
Pickin on the Grateful Dead

The cover of Southern Cross by Crosby Stills and Nash on pickin on classic rock 2 is incredible..

In fact, I think I'll sift a live version of the original, damn that's an amazing song
update edit: http://videosift.com/video/Southern-Cross-live-by-Crosby-Stills-and-Nash

you can preview the pickin on version on amazon but that's the best I could find

hey bud.
i figured i would run this by you first considering this your site.
now that i am ruby and can make a channel i dont want to make some redundant channel but one that will actually be used.
i am thinking electronica for a few reasons:
1.we dont have one
2.while it is a sub-genre of music it does give the ability to specify WHAT kind of music.
3.electronica covers a broad range of music and if we consider that synthesizers started in the late 50's and early sixties the channel will have a pretty large potential to actually be used.
examples:
steve miller band-fly like an eagle-electronica/classic rock
flock of seagulls-i ran-electronica/new wave
pink flowd-several different species of furry animals gathered together in a cave grooving with a pic-electronica/acid rock
NIN-wish-electronica/industrial/punk
sasha and digweed-remake of enjoy the silence-electronica/techno/trance

i could really go on forever but any music that uses a synthesizer,samples,loops,digitized media to create music with or without organic instruments would fall under this category.considering that farhad,myself,stingray,eklek and volumptuous all have a pretty large archive of electronica i dont feel the channel would be empty by any stretch.
i noticed you have a vote up for the community to vote on possible channels.that is a good idea.i will be voting yes but i still would like to hear your thoughts on my suggestion.
thanks in advance.
till next time.
namaste.

*edit* ok..blankie changed my mind.i voted no he is spot on.

I upvote even though my initial reaction was 'oh, not bloody Schapelle again'.

I would like to see a reputable source back up the facts stated on the site you linked to... if those things (regarding the drugs in particular, because that's the crux of it really, did she have them or not) are true, then yeah, the media did a huge disservice to her.

I can't say this track is any good though.

Oh, and you could probably call this a dupe of this one, although they have different images with them.

I thought you had misspelled Siouxsie Sioux there . Nice song, I liked it. As you've probably guessed from my avatar, I'm very fond of Dylan. Vintage rock, especially late 60s and the 70s, is what I love the most. Also a big fan of early hiphop, delta blues, classical music and LOTS of other stuff

and tim burton?
i have gotten better at assigning channels,i noticed i didnt assign rock-n-roll for some when i should have.
im not that versed in hip-hop.breakbeats/progressive house/trance..but hip hop?not so much.
now delta blues?
buddy..have i got some treats for YOU!
classical?pretty versed there also.
ill send ya a shout when i post some newer rock that i think you may enjoy,considering you already are pretty knowledgable on classic rock.
till then.
namaste.

I liked it

Hooray! Free Aquavit and elk sausage all around! And keep the classic rock coming! I know you also has a little place in you heart for Steely Dan, which is all I need to make me happy. That, and the fact that you now are halfway to a crown! Woohoo!

>> ^NetRunner:
Okay, a lesson about the objectification of women.
Done right: This is clearly a woman with tremendous passion for music, creatively blending a very unorthodox classical instrument with a powerful piece of classic rock music. You can see her perfect posture, the graceful movement of her hands across the instrument. You can see that faraway, wistful look on her beautiful face as she revels in the enjoyment of the piece...what man could resist her?
Done wrong: Dude, she's hot. I'd love to climb her Stairway to Heaven.


And if both apply? Though, she looks young enough for me to think it to be a felony.

Welcome! I highly recommend you start with Videosift's FAQs, as most of your questions can be answered there.

http://www.videosift.com/faq-en.php

The thing about videosift is that it is difficult to get your own personal videos onto the site unless you persuade some other sifter to post them for you - the concept of "no self-linking" (not posting videos you made or have on your own YouTube or similar account) prevents Videosift from becoming inundated with people self-linking to themselves and artificially increasing their own stats, as well as preventing nonsensical home movies from flooding the site.

The rating system is other VideoSift members voting (up or down) on your video. You need 10 votes on a video to get it published to the front page, otherwise it sits in the "Unsifted" pile and if it runs out of time there and it will go into your "Personal Queue."

Hopefully that answers some of your questions... if you have any more I'd be happy to try and help you out.

In reply to this comment by Hooghoudt:
Hi, I'm kind of new in this site. Where can I find tips on how and were to post nice video's and about the rating? I have a few more nice classical/rock video's I would like to share and get commented on.
Your reply will be highly appreciated.

Rgds,
Peter

I was looking forward to seeing them live but after their latest album I don't know anymore. Friends saw them recently and all the epic and awesomeness of old days is gone and replaced by this crappy sound they did on the new album. When I heard they were gonna use more guitars and go more "classic rock" (like not post-rock, not like Deep Purple) I expected something completely different. So if you like he new album, have fun. Otherwise don't expect them to play too many of the older songs (Untitled #8 is just wicked).
