Wasn't Harry Kim kept as an ensign because the actor had gotten caught smoking pot, so that was how they punished him? That seems like passive aggressive lovely middle management, but it was the team making Voyager so probably.

Was thinking about newer treks vs. the older ones and definitely getting diminishing #s of core cast members that I wouldn't replace. -Voyager: keep Janeway, Tuvok, Doctor, Seven -Enterprise: keep Phlox -Discovery: keep Saru and Hugh -Picard: none

I just got back into town from seeing Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra, me and a buddy beamed in from Bukkake 7 to see the show, and we had a great time! I've seen Darmok and Jalad play much better before, but the show was an interesting experience. It didn't seem very rehearsed which was kind of cool to see. No big introductions from Darmok for any of the songs, and sometimes it seemed like he didn't exactly know what he wanted to say and would stumble a bit. The crowd seemed a bit dead at times but the place was pretty packed (I'd say about 90%). Here's a song-by-song rundown of the interesting moments from the show (some of which I haven't seen mentioned in any other reviews). Intro Film - very cool, almost the highlight of the show hearing songs like Shaka When The Walls Fell and Sokath, His Eyes Uncovered pumped through the PA. Shine On You Crimson Forcefield - predictable opener, I was hoping for Interstellar Warp Drive or Ferengi Of Love, but this song sounded pretty good. Uzani, his army with fists closed - pretty standard performance, nothing special. Zinda, his eyes red - Jalad was messing up towards the end, Darmok walked back and stood right in front of the drum set guiding him until he had to come to the front of the stage for the signature "Picard Move". Shut The gently caress Up Wesley - I've seen Darmok and Jalad I don't know how many times over the years and no matter how hosed up Picard is, I've seen session musicians fill in for him because he's so loaded, but when it comes to this song, sober as a Vulcan, or more hosed up than a Klingon after a winning battle, they can carry him on the stage, and then carry him off the stage after and he ALWAYS NAILS THIS ONE!! Tonight was no exception. He was made for this song. Kira at Bashi - much better than I expected, tons of pyro which was really cool. Astronomical Dominator - nothing too special, Darmok can't seem to remember what notes he's supposed to hit on the backing vocals. When Jalad turned the mic over to Dathon to introduce the song, he instead just said "hit it Picard" Mirab, with sails unfurled - Jalad went off during this song with some seriously funky cowbell during the guitar solo. During this song Darmok's mic quit working, a roadie came out and tried to fix it, it still didn't work, Darmok started looking a bit pissed and then knocked the mic over and walked to another one. pretty funny stuff! Deflectors - pretty decent performance although Dathon was overdoing it a bit during the spoken part at the end of the song. He also sang one of the verses twice (you really like rock and roll....) and seemed like he was forgetting other parts as well (letting the crowd sing). Corporal Klagg - I knew this would be the last song they played before midnight, and I like most everyone else spent half the time watching the big clock in the stadium. Darmok and Jalad seemed to be watching the clock themselves during the song, and seemed to go off a bit more during the middle solo to stretch the song out to midnight. The song finished up just past 11:59, but there was no countdown, Darmok and Jalad along with everybody else was staring at the big clock at the back of the stadium, Darmok said something like "I'm not sure what's going to happen but the new year is going to ROOOCK". A big 2391 sign popped up on the screens before the clock hit 12:00 then Dathon asked for a countdown and right after that the big clock hit 12:00 and everyone started cheering and a few fireworks went off. Resistance Is Futile - I was so glad they played this song, it was definitely the highlight of the night for me. It was also probably the only song that was performed well enough to go on Alive IV undoctored. (maybe Romulus and Fire Phasers). Picard went into his solo and was really sloppy, probably the worst solo I've heard him do, he realized this too and said "I hope I'm not putting you to sleep there. To hell with it, let's blow some stuff up." I was totally caught off guard by the 3rd rocket which Picard shot out over the crowd, very very cool. Kiteo, his eyes closed - this song was pretty sloppy. Dathon at this point started to play less and less guitar, just hitting chords here and there, and Picard was still battling with a serious case of sloppy guitar playing. After the song, Dathon very sarcastically said "that was so musical." guess he's been hanging out on Risa for too long. Darmok Of Thunder - more like Darmok Of Blunder. Darmok flew up sort of slowly and when he landed on his little stage, it started swinging back and forth. Darmok was holding on for dear life to the mic stand and it looked like he was having a heart attack up there. Picard came into the solo a full beat late and never got back in time with the band. They were all just kind of playing and looking at each other like "how are we going to get out of this one"? Darmok was so busy making sure Dathon and Picard came into the last part of the song right that he forgot to sing the first line of the demonic growl part (I am the lord of the Neutral Zone) and hurried back to the mic to finish the part. They looked very relieved at the end of the song that they made it through! Impulse Speed - Dathon announced that "we're going to play a song that we've never played before, and hopefully it won't sound like we've never played it before", in obvious reference to the big Darmok Of Thunder screw-up. Picard and Darmok were cracking up on stage. They performed this song great, and Picard did a cool extended solo that will hopefully be included on Alive IV (after he does it a couple more times in the studio!!) Q!! - Dathon started saying this was the last song they did in makeup, Darmok actually spoke and said "what are you talking about, we're in makeup!", and then Dathon started laughing at Darmok, this was definitely something I had never seen at a Darmok and Jalad show before. This song was tight as well, it was obvious that they worked hard on rehearsing the 80's songs (but not much else.) Borgs - standard peformance, I've heard them play it better, I've heard them play it worse. cool pyro, as always during this song. Ten Forward - Dathon did a quick intro and was about to fly out on his harness when Darmok brought to his attention that Picard wasn't on stage. Dathon actually got on the mic and said "paging Captain Picard could you please come to the stage" Picard either danced or stumbled onto the stage depending on how you view it (I personally think he was starting his new year's eve celebration before the show was over, sip, sip). Picard got lost during the solo and pretty much made up a new one on the spot, which was cool to hear. Latinum - no long guitar intro from Darmok, but I guess Picard didn't know they had cut that from the show because once again he was not on stage when the song was ready to start, so Dathon did the intro again. Darmok kept staring offstage and Picard kinda snuck up onto one of the side stages and stayed there for awhile. Jalad's vocal mic wasn't turned on until the 2nd verse, throughout the show it seemed like the crew was totally unrehearsed, which made the fact that the band didn't rehearse much even more glaring. ---encore--- the W-A-R-P deejay brought out the guy who paid 3000 bars of Gold Pressed Latinum to countdown the millenium with D&J but instead he got to walk out onstage with a W-A-R-P deejay. what a bummer! Vulcan Meadows - pretty good performance, good pyro as usual, Picard missed the count for the beginning of the song and had to jump in a little bit late. Arnock at the race of Natara - at the end of "ARN", Picard got up from the drums to sing VASH, He got started with the first couple lines "Vash, I hear you calling, but I can't beam home right now, Me and the boys are on an away mission....." but Darmok ran back and told him to get behind the drums, I guess Picard forgot that they were doing Into The Null Space as an encore, it certainly threw me for a loop! Dathon announced the song as being from Pakled Circus and said, almost sarcastically "ya'll are all into Pakled Circus aren't you?" to which the crowd gave a lukewarm response. Dathon turned the mic over to Picard and he dedicated the song to the Darmok and Jalad Army "without you NOTHING would be going on right now" it sounded like he was going to say the "fuckin Darmok and Jalad army" but right as he was was about to Dathon ran up to the mic as if to stop him, and Picard said "I was going to say it but I didn't." The background vocals were awful, and Darmok and Dathon were almost laughing about the fact that they couldn't hit the right notes. Dathon finally gave up on trying to harmonize with Darmok so throughout the choruses you would hear this loud off-key demon singing "INTO THE NUUUULLLL SPAAAACCCCEEEEE". I felt bad for Picard it almost seemed like they were tanking his song on purpose. The fact that Dathon was more concerned with shaking his butt than playing guitar also was a big factor during this song. I can almost see it now: Darmok - "I'm sorry Picard but Into The Null Space didn't turn out too good, we're going to have it to leave it off Alive IV." Picard - "we're overdubbing everything else on this album why can't we fix my song!" Romulus and Remus - Jalad sang this song great, probably the best I've ever heard him sing it. Pakled Smasher - Everyone got up and danced to this one. Even the band seemed to want to break it down. I guess they were anxious to get the show over with so they could take the Latinum and run. Probably to Quarks so they can spend it on meth and dabo girls. I'm sure we've all heard the rumours of the orgies they have in the holosuites. Them dabo girls are said to get pretty freaky. Supposedly back in the 70s one of them was caught with a Denebian Slime Devil in her clavusconus during a D&J after party. Later in that tour of couse, Jalad got so hosed up he drove a rented shuttle craft into the pool at the resort on Risa that they were staying at. And of course the wrecked holosuites etc... One Of These Stardates - tons of confetti, finally we see some risers, and another ending to another highly entertaining, eventful Darmok and Jalad show. It was extremely rough around the edges and I wish they had brought the Klingon battle chorus to do a few songs from akhtu and mehlota but overall it was a good time. I feel like at least the technical problems were as a result of the ferengi promoters hiring nausicans for stagehands, rather than the unoinized zakdorns because the nausicans work cheaper. but it was otherwise lots of fun, and there's nowhere else I would have wanted to spend New Year's Eve 2391. wesleywillis fucked around with this message at 03:50 on Sep 3, 2021 |

I mean... the only reason Neelix joined the Voyager crew was because his planet had just been destroyed and he was literally about to be killed. He doesn’t want to have to be on Voyager. He just accepts that he doesn’t have any other choice but to be there because he literally has no where else to go. O’Brien voluntarily keeps coming to work everyday and isn’t stranded in the Delta Quadrant.
