Day shows pretty much rule - Yard Dog on South Congress has a good vibe with Bloodshot (Friday) and Yep Roc (Saturday) parties. Guitartown party is a good way to kick things off on Wednesday. Cheapo's and Waterloo Records have free day shows that can get pretty crowded. New West has a great party on Thursday at Club Deville, but you need an invite (e-mail Clare at New West Records, you might get lucky).

When you criticize the president's budget, you embolden our enemies. I know you're reading this, Osama.

I'm voting the Benevolent Dictator ticket in '08.

Just clicked on PBS, and there's the "nudge-nudge" sketch!

I recall seeing their set at the ACL Fest the day before the taping in Sept. 04. Tried to maneuver through the dense crowd while they set up, got incredibly claustrophobic and bolted to the wings, followed by the Texas version of Girls of Degrassi Jr. High. It's so cold, I'm typing to keep my hands warm.

So Jolie Holland can sing me to sleep. Is the Bose really all that? Other good choices, or should I just get a sony boombox?
