it is my pleasure to annouce slidingpast.com which is now the official archive of I D A H O. there's still a lot of stuff to be added. a LOT. there are a lot of blank spaces that i hope fans can fill in, such as photos, tour dates, set lists, audio, reviews, etc. anything related to I D A H O, please contact me. an infinite amount of thanks to Jeff for his support and trust. enjoy.
thank you, that's some great information and photos. hey jeff, the recording pictures from -94. are they taken at your house? if so, that's quite a house you've got there.
Looks good.
It's better than this site! : ) Now all it needs is reviews of the last few albums and even more pictures. Great job, Brian.
that was my folks house in brentwood....my dad's an architect.
Nice Job, the site looks real good
Brian - The site looks great . I have a bunch of photos of the Seattle (Graceland and Sonic Boom in-store) and Portland shows from 2002 tour. I just sent ya an e-mail.
thank you to everyone so far for the emails and support. i was truly hoping everyone would want to contribute what they could and when possible. i have updated the site again tonight and will be adding items almost everyday. it's truly amazing how much information and history will be available now. the guitars and equipment will come with time as will the tablature. if anyone has any questions, comments, suggestions, contributions or problems, please let me know. thanks again.
I have live audio that I can upload if it's cool with Jeff.
only if its "good"...im not a big fan of live recordings......just put up the cream of the crop as it were
Jeff, to give people something to compare to, do you consider the show in the other thread ("Levitate", "Lately", "To Be The One", "Parting Ways", etc.) good?
seriously...sorry Jeff, but it's all good
they have some nice moments...from what i remember
i love the german interview! very strange.
Hey Brian, are you going to put up any video clips? That would be great.
Andrew, i am hoping to include audio & video at some point on slidingpast.com. i do have all the videos that Jeff has posted on idahomusic.com. the only video i don't have, that at one time was available online, is the FUEL video. i believe there are at least 2 versions (maybe 3) that included more/less film footage from FLOUNDERING and/or more/less of Jeff.
for the life of me i cant figure out how to navigate around this site.....where the heck is the german interview for instance?...i once stumbled across a press page but cannot find it again....the site needs better navigational links .....its really great otherwise
the navigation will change eventually to have links to go wherever from the start. i like it for now though. sorry for any problems. i've linked the sections in order of the way i've worked on them. releases. tours. photos. press. all anyone has to do is to click on the slidingpast.com banner at the top of each page to go to another section (since that banner keeps changing appearance page to page).
maybe i haven't dug deep enough in brians site, but i can't seem to find smt on the score Jeff did of some festival film a few years back. the tunes were in a sample he had put up once. maybe Jeff can come up with a full song or two, as i remember it to be beautiful. can't remember the title of it though. also a long long time ago there was an mp3 of a live performance on a party, (alive again?) that was neat enough to put up maybe?
Do you have the lyrics on the site for the Hearts of Palm & We Were Young.....????
No, they're not up yet.
Michel - the film is called How To Make The Cruelest Month. Jeff posted 2 different collections of music from the score. One was FORKIP which was 4:24 while the other (after requests for more) was FILMSAMPLER and is 12:29. hopefully one day all the songs will be available in some form, as well as the movie. and as far as lyrics for Hearts & We Were Young, they will be available soon.
What's with so many of the Year After Year reviewers confusing John with Jeff? Was there a misprint in the original press info or something?
Brian, maybe you're aware of this, but the reviews for Hearts of Palm aren't coming up. There's an error of some sort.
Alex, thanks for letting me know. you apparently caught the site while i was updating various sections. all is working now.
all of the press reviews on slidingpast.com are scanned/formatted from the original articles or reviews as-is. there are several mistakes, which just shows how much attention a lot of writers had about the subject at hand. it must be said though that the majority of the errors are from indie zines and a few college papers.
an interesting update i've been working on and finally just put up (with more to come, hopefully) '92-'93 record company correspondence
thanks for that! i was truly enjoyed reading it. i gotta tip my friends.
I see why Jeff doesn't want to mess with labels anymore. It also further solidifies my opinion of them in general.
this is upsetting but it isnt that surprising, to be realistic, unfortunatly the music industry is an "industry" and they need to sell records so their employees can afford to pay their mortgages and feed and cloth their families, also idaho arnt the most commercial sounding of bands. i suppose to summarise i could write "this doesnt excuse their actions, but at least now i feel we understand them a little better" It is distressing though to read this sort of stuff, but i do think if anyone else reading this is upset, then they get up off their asses and set up their own record company to distribute music the way they feel it should be done. especially musicians who want to distibute their own music, maybe this internet thing could be handy! post more of these letters brian, i would like to know what happened next to this band "idaho"
Reading the '92-'93 correspondence this afternoon compelled me to insert 'Year After Year' into my player and it has yet to cease. I so love hearing Jeff sing with his lower register! I am pleased to reconfirm YAY's place among my favorite albums. -To be quite superficial, after viewing the '93 photographs I must state that Mr. Martin had the most remarkable hair. :)
Yeah, I kinda wish Jeff would go back to singing in his lower register once in a while. It would give Idaho CDs even more variety.
i've added the rest of the correspondence that i have had access to so far. including the most interesting ones from the publicity agency at the time, Susan Blond Inc. with two mentioning a possible tour that would have been great to see and MAY have drawn more attention to I D A H O at the time. there are quite a few updates from this agency regarding press coverage during a 3-4 month campaign, but most are pretty repetitive in detailing which publication may or may not cover the band so i didn't include them all.
it was really interesting to be able to compile these pieces to see what it was like for new/unknown bands in the post-Nirvana frenzy. check out the timeline from Caroline as example. i'll continue to add whenever possible. thanks.
blah blah verbose bullshit blah blah blah I'm full of myself blah blah blah aren't I annoying blah blah
You certainly are...
hehe
Jesus Christ! $7.50 for 30 copies of Year After Year. CD retail prices are even more jacked up than I thought. Unbelievable...
i've added the last of the correspondance, including a couple from '97 from Buzz Records about the Forbidden EP. i also added 7 more tabs that are in traditional tab format and are pretty easy to follow. if anyone has anything that isn't included on www.slidingpast.com and wants to contribute, please let me know. thanks.
The numbers in those tabs are impossible to read. So is the scan of the second correspondence from '97.
I do not agree.
I'm with Andrew. They're impossible to make out on my screen, which is pretty large.
impossible to read? sounds like the images are being automatically resized to your screen sizes. you need to maximize the images to full size (cursor over the image and click the icon that pops up or adjust your browser settings to NOT resize images). should be able to read them since all the scans are at 300dpi and are 1000 pixels in height.
I have no problem reading them, and my computer sucks.
i've put all the video clips up that were previously available.
The 2000 Tour Footage in the U.S. is completely distorted and unviewable. Is it just me?
sheesh Alex, don't you have anything better to do?!?
Not when I'm at school. Don't you have anything better to do? I'm sure there's something out there that would be more productive than bothering me about every single thing I post.
it's you Alex or the school comps. i downloaded everything again to check. would probably help to be using the current version of Quicktime which is linked from the video page.
I found a new an article which I do not think is on your site Brian. Sorry if I didn't look hard enough...
Also, The Paris set list from 2002
A pass from the Cafe de la Danse gig, 2002
A ticket from the London gig, 2002.
If you want better scans, just let me know.
how'd you get ahold of the setlist?
he probalby asked the band for it, dipshit.
whoa, sorry i asked. i just thought there might be a fun story behind it or something.
yea, seriously. no need to be nasty. here, have this pebble i found.
I'll have a beer.
i've added a great photo of Jeff from 10.05.93 at the Casbah in San Diego along with a journal entry confirming the date. also a few updates in the press areas. more to come soon.
another mp3 is back up. this one is HOLLOW, live at the Bottom Of The Hill, 07.05.00. and i also updated some tour dates.
i finally added the merchandise section. i still have to get a good photo of the Three Sheets poster up and a better one of the YAY poster would do it more justice. i think there's at least one more shirt out there as well. images of anything missing will be appreciated.
http://www.slidingpast.com/merch/ i also updated some tour dates/info and added a compilation called "Lost Songs" to the discography that came out in December '03 in Europe on Little Records that features Shoulder Back. thanks. vieux carre` - 09.04
i finally found info on the compilation that featured SPIRAL on it from 2000 that was released in Canada. Jeff mentioned on here once before. emoragei magazine: coagulation i also am now hosting the German interview Jeff did in 2002 for the FSK Sunday Service radio program since it was taken offline at their site. it is available in real audio or quicktime.
Any headway in posting the KEXP performance I sent you? I noticed you posted the songs played and the time. The KEXP web site says they hold the copywright to in-studio recordings, but they did not post this one in their archives. Do you want me to try to help you get permission? I know a few people there.
finally after 5 days the site is back up. updates to come. Seth, all music postings need Jeff's approval first of course and then can try KEXP. it's a great set of songs so early in the morning. maybe someday. thanks again.
i've updated the releases with Vieux Carre, To Be The One single, the Low tribute, and 7 more compilations through the years. i need artwork for a lot of those still if anyone has them, let me know. i have the tracklistings.
Caroline: Fall '93 Sampler thanks.
That's cool that "Rope" is on Vieux Carre. I was just about to waste my money on the Low comp...
Oh, so was I. LOL
Here are 3 links to Reviews in the german Intro Magazine: http://www.intro.de/index.php?nav=22&con=/platten/kritiken&einreview=1029858293& http://www.intro.de/index.php?nav=22&con=/platten/kritiken&einreview=843351433& http://www.intro.de/index.php?nav=22&con=/platten/kritiken&einreview=805471773& In the hearts of palm review she also taks about levitat and We were...since these records have been a bit ognored by german press.
Hahahah... man.. I just noticed the 80's idaho recordings. awesome/hilarious. sounds like jeff used to be a comsat angels fan.
what was Jeff doing musically in 1978 you ask?
mp3's coming soon hopefully
that's classic.
I didn't know Jeff plays or played the flute?
today marks the one year anniversary of slidingpast.com. many thanks to Jeff & John for their support and to all of those who have contributed to the site: Ian, Chris & Denise, Seth, Dan T., Marc, Michel, Susan, Alyssa and everyone who's name escapes me at the moment. here are some interesting points: top 15 visiting countries other than the USA: more to come soon. Brian
i've updated the site tonight and i'm trying a new pop up navigation, so if you have them blocked, allow them for slidingpast and somethingmustbreak. lots of updates to come as the tour begins.
cool, brian. very cool. love the fliar.
The poster is cool but now the rest of the site isn't working well. The top 'Sliding Past' banner doesn't go anywhere. And it's not my pop-up blocker. If I go to the updates page, the good 'Sliding Past' banner is there below the new one that doesn't go anywhere and I can navigate from there.
Andrew, you should see 2 windows when you go to the main page, one is the navigation window and the other is about the SMB cd. the top slidingpast banner, when clicked, will only reload the banner and the navigation window if someone has closed it. i'll adjust things over the weekend. a mix of old and new.
ok, so i've changed some stuff again. only one pop up now for the SMB cd. the red banner links are non working as i've just made the site links available at the top of the screen permanent (for now). i'll be adding a search function soon and will be reorganizing some files in the releases, in case something doesn't work when visited. future links: any suggestions?
Looks good.
me likey.
so far so good with changes i've made. anyone notice any problems?
does'nt work very well when using firefox 0.8
details please about firefox. what doesn't work right? anyone else?
i've added 40 photos from Europe, with more to come the live photos will be moved to the individual show pages soon with updates to those accordingly.
there have been photos added to some of the 2004 tour shows, most recently the Ephemere show.
Anyone have a playlist for the Euro shows? Sorry if this is already been covered but I get tired of wading through all the purile shit on this board.
here's JB's setlist for shows. click for full size.
...or sumthin'.
Thanks B
just so everyone knows, slidingpast is changing servers and will not be fully functional untill probably wed, if not sooner. i'll have a lot up again tonight though. thanks.
i added the search function. if anyone has problems, let me know.
I just wanted to let you know that I picked up a copy of the Idaho/Cobolt Split 7" two months ago. It is black vinyl and apparently limited to 400. Ihave 50/400. hope you didnt know that yet. and german or european Idaho fans can order it from www.greenhell.de
Kern, or anyone that has that, can you send me a scan of it?
sorry, I can`t. I don`t have a digital camera. The artwork is the same, it`s just the vinyl colour that is different.
you didn't have that one already? i;ll scan it for you, i got a red and black vinyl.
i just checked the site brian what do you need the black vinyl scan?
yeah right ok the beers i'll send the black vinyl scan thsi weekend stay well michel
i finally have been able to add some pics that Seth took at the 2002 shows in Portland, Seattle, including the in-store appearance. 69 new photos.
a BIG thanks to Seth Howard for all the photos.
if anyone has any additional photos from these shows, or any shows for that matter, please e-mail me. thanks.
damn! jeff and JB have some sweet gear. those 2002 pics are very cool.
a major update will be coming soon courtesy of Mr. Mark Lewis, as he too has contributed part of his personal archive from time spent in I D A H O, to be shared with fans. there will numerours additions to the tour dates from the '90s as well as scans of the actual set lists from just about every show from those tours. it's just amazing. all in due time after SMB gets on it's feet. which i've added to the releases section. as always, if anyone has anything from any year that would be of interest, please e-mail me and let me know. thanks.
here's something, for now, that i found on ebay a few months ago, surprisingly.
are the tour dates from 2000 onwards on slidingpast complete? reason i ask is that by my count, idaho has only done 1 show in LA since 2000. (the derby show in 2002)
wow. that flier is fantastic.
I'm in the middle of a major update over at slidingpast and have posted a few items worth a look.
Thanks
HOLY SHIT BRIAN... THAY FLYER! That show was my first exposure to Idaho. they blew my mind, amd the cranes off the stage... cool flyer! adam
here are a few more updates:
hey Adam, it's always cool to find those flyers and posters from shows you've been too. i know i'm always looking for stuff from all the shows i've been to through the years from all bands i've seen. glad you got to see it. you wouldn't happen to have a ticket stub or anything else from that show, or any others, to be able to add to slidingpast would you? thanks.
