I wonder if WikiLeaks gets their hands on it, if they would release it.

Great to see Tortoise on the bill.

Great piece by Oteil. I need to dive into Kofi's music. For some, reason I have not spent much time with the Tedeschi Trucks Band, either. https://oteilburbridge.com/in-memory-of-my-big-brother/

Yeah, at first I didn't want the Sox to sign Machado, but then I wanted them to sign him. Oh well - it is a lot of dough. Go, White Sox!

So far I have just been hitting record stores -- my old neighbor hood has one - it was within walking distance, now it's about 1/2 hour drive without traffic. Been hitting the Reckless that is downtown (Chicago), too. Still have never hit Dusty Groove in Chicago - though I have friends who have been going there for many years and they always have great things to say about it. So far I with worldrecordplayer - I need to look and browse through records, esp used ones. Was happy when I bought a used copy of 1st Iron Maiden record this weekend and checked it out when I got it home, it was $

Just finished it up last night. I really enjoyed the last episode. Pretty cool concept for show. I wonder if there are talks of a 2nd season. Perhaps, they will go with a whole different set of characters and keep the same concept.

Love when shows pop up, after trips are booked and you a going to be in the area...Enjoy!

Talked about the whole Adams and 14 year girl thing, then said it was yet another example of a white musician doing something that black musician did first - then the showed a picture of R Kelly. It was pretty funny.

True. I wonder what the liner notes say, I don't have them handy.

They may have got their information from wiki, the below is on the wiki page.

That was a message to Jim DeRogatis - I have listened to that a few times for laughs. God - seriously, it doesn't get any better than that. I don't know crap about Adams - but, I am a huge fan Neal Casal and I guess he was in the Cardinals. No wonder he is able to put up with Chris Robinson - Chris must seem like a saint compared to Adams.

The Stones have wore their logo quite a bit over the years, esp. Mick. Charlie got in the action, too. Though, when you have a such an iconic logo/symbol you may as well display it. I don't think the rhinestone tank that Charlie is sporting was ever sold at the front of the house. Mick wore the same designed shirt that I bought in 89 while on stage.

That's cool. At breakfast at a Perkins in Fargo, once ---- it was horrible...

Listening to 2/14/69 -- not sure if I have listened to this show before - usually go to the 2/14/68 or 2/14/70 shows for Valentine's Day. Did Bear ever remember to turn on/up the monitors - 'god love 'em.' song 2: Gd69-02-14T02 LadiesAndGentlemenThatsBear.flac

2 episodes into Russian Doll - it is a hoot.

I think the biggest indoor venue I saw them play was the two UIC Pavilion shows in Chicago, 2009 --- it was a bit weird. I was on the floor, so it sounded ok, but it was weird being in an arena seeing them perform -- it was even more weird seeing Tortoise, who opened, play in arena. I think they played arena venues at various points -- that NYE gig at Madison Square Garden springs to mind. I don't foresee any line up change -- which is both good and bad.

Finally gotten around to watch that "Abducted in Plain Sight" doc - the person who irked me the most was the brother of that B dude -- he was just so flippant in the whole thing. I can't say I would protect any my siblings in the same way.

Yeah, it is bit depressing how much records are going for now-a-days - esp. new ones. $400 for Lawn Boy made for a great return for you! I bought many of mine at flea markets in the 80's. It was always a tough decision for me if I was gonna spend my money on baseball cards or records. Happy to say, after bringing them all from my p's house to my house recently - they all still play well, so far.

Just went to the Reverb site and noticed that I can buy records form The Official Jay Farrar Of Son Volt Reverb LP Shop ---- I read that he was unloaded some instruments/recording equipment, but didn't hear about records.

Never really thought of Ebay - must admit I never purchased anything from there.

Anybody care to share which websites are best for buying used records. I know of discogs --- but it seems many of the sellers are in Europe - which is fine, but I don't really don't want to deal with higher shipping costs all the time. Thx.

Yeah he did. Seeing him smile while on stage was always something special, too. I guess that goes for anyone performing --- seeing a person happy or seeing a some type of nod after a great solo or something is what makes seeing shows worth while. Every now and then Dylan lets out a look or smile after something and it's a treat. Tweedy is another one who when you watch makes an expression of 'hey that was pretty great'.

I started to read this thinking you were going to write the lady passed away...

Perhaps, since Dead Set was an intro to my Dead listening when I was a kid - I have always be fond of Minglewood. Always enjoyed the 'I was born in a desert, Raised in a loin's den' line.

The bong thread regarding She's a Jar in the Just a Fan forum - yet another poor attempt of humor on my part, though I do find think the thread is an amusing bit. I am not feeling a Blackhawk playoff run, which is a bummer - also, Lammy is right - the Hawks are still bottom feeders.
