Some new "crooning" by Dylan --- okay song, I guess. Sounds like he is really ready for Vegas stint. "Full Moon & Empty Arms" http://www.bobdylan.com/de/home

Indeed, great version on the Deadicated cd. Great request.

Listening to 6/9/91 - Buckeye Lake Music Center. I had this show on tape shortly after the show and loaned it to to someone a few years later and never gotten it back -- finally downloaded it and it is definitely as good a show as I remembered. Nice He's Gone and Ruben. Solid throughout. Never been to Buckeye - looks like a cool venue from pictures. Also happy with the latest Dave's Pick -- parts of 12/12/69 was in the first batch of tapes that I ever got. It wasn't the best sounding/transfer so it is nice to have a great, clean copy.

Over the last two weeks I have checked out Kill em All, Ride the Lightning, Puppets, and Justice from the library --- I haven't listened to them in probably over 20-25 years --- it was a fun listen --- I even noticed my wife tapping her foot while Justice was blasting in the car. I can probably wait for another 20-25 years to listen to them, again - though.

Pepe: I love you, Papa Homer. Homer: I love you, too, Pepsi.

Well he does brood like that Dylan McKay character - I'll give him that.

Can Bright Eyes be considered a "supposed great band", though?

Radiohead

I swear you must be their manager of something... They seem to never make it down to the South suburbs -- would try to catch them if they did.

Definitely!

I think my favorites are In Dubious Battle, Winter of Our Discontent, and Travels with Charley.

One of the few Steinbeck books that I haven't read, yet. Haven't read any Steinbeck in a long while - need to revisit him, soon.

Thanks, Cold as Gasoline.

I wish they (Jagger/Richards (w/Wood) were writing music -- Wood's 2010 record was pretty good.

Same here --- we are trying broken egg shells and coffee grounds to combat it - the tulip hatin bastards.

I do the same.

Some more Weir praise. http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/culture/2014/04/grateful-for-bob-weir.html?utm_source=tny&utm_campaign=generalsocial&utm_medium=facebook&mbid=social_facebook

I haven't read it in a long while, but isn't there some info in 'The Wilco Book' on AGIB?

Wouldn't mind hearing about the show -- doesn't look like I will making it up there for the show.

I was wondering what California Chrome had to baseball - Curve came in 2nd - so you were close.

Did you place a bet?

Does anybody know why Trevor Dunn replaced Hoff?

Toews and Keith talk like they lost 6 in a row ---- gotta love hockey players. Go Hawks!

Well that was fun. Thanks.

Has anybody seen the Kicking Television footage? (I have not.)
