you ever seen a ghost?

wait...Harry Dean Stanton, i didn't realize that was another one. who were you on the Dylanpool? -justin

Wilco: hey guys...umm...where the fuck is that other album? i thought you said it was gonna be soon. it's been a fucking year already. what the fuck gives? -justin

>Go shove the blu-ray discs up your ass Neil. brilliant! -justin

a sample: Besides Timrod, for instance, Modern Times taps into the Bible (Genesis, Exodus, Samuel, John, and Luke, among others), Robert Johnson, Memphis Minnie, Kokomo Arnold, Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson, Blind Lemon Jefferson, the Stanley Brothers, Merle Haggard, Hoagy Carmichael, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, and standards popularized by Jeanette MacDonald, Bing Crosby, and Frank Sinatra, as well as vintage folk songs such as

>Well, your money is certainly where your mouth is. my user name is a line from "Spirit On The Water." i suggest any of you interested Dylan fans read this excellent article: http://www.poetryfoundation.org/archive/fe....html?id=178703 what's fascinating to me are the literally hundreds of quotes/references to literature, film and music of the past couple hundred years. there's something awe-inspiring to me in the way he juxtaposes those lyrics with all these antiquated phrases and the like. for example, the line with "Dark Town" in it from "Sugar Baby" has no less than three refe

>What's your top 5? no particular order: 1. "Love & Theft" 2. Blonde On Blonde 3. The Bootleg Series, Volume 4: Live 1966: The "Royal Albert Hall" Concert 4. Modern Times 5. Highway 61 Revisited -justin

had pit tickets so i ended up getting there around 4, when the heavy rain started. stood in a downpour for 2 hours before running the quarter mile to the pit...absolutely soaked. started to dry off some, though still freezing cold. when the show was over at 11, back into the downpour. we lost the car, so then spent a good 45 minutes wandering around in ankle-deep mud and newly-formed streams until we found it. way home was flooded, so i didn't make it back to Richmond until about 3 AM. this was my first RH show and despite all, it was awesome. i'm dying to get a lossless copy of the sho

i like you. -justin

it most certainly does not. while some publications made it a point to fashion a trilogy from those three albums, when asked about it in the 2006 Rolling Stone interview, Bob said, if there were to be a trilogy, it would start with "Love & Theft." this only makes sense, as Bob produced L&T/MT and all of the original one-offs since "Things Have Changed" in 1998 under the pseudonym Jack Frost. also, "L&T" and MT share many, many subtle similarities that TOOM has no part of. -justin

>calm down i will not calm down. the trilogy that will be L&T/MT/next album will be considered alongside his best work and another artistic peak in years to come. -justin

the lack of love here for "Love & Theft" and Modern Times is astonishing. it's making me sick. -justin

zuh? -justin

Need to get rid of this before/on Sunday, 5/11. -justin

so fucking at the Black Cat show. i didn't go before b/c i was waiting until they came around touring as the main attraction. -justin

my ranking: 1. In Rainbows 2. Amnesiac 3. Kid A 4. Hail To The Thief 5. OK Computer 6. The Bends 7. I don't even own Pablo Honey b/c it's stupid. -justin

yeah, umm...i never heard Wilco at any frat parties when i was in college. mostly just crunk and Fall-Out Boy. they're giving the Greeks way too much credit. -justin

still my favorite RH album and therefore one of my top 5 albums of all time. it's fantastic and should only be remembered as such. -justin

you know it! froggie is too, but i'm sure you've already recognized him. -justin

i kinda like the less restrained ones that they started playing when they debuted the song...where the last verse would come after. -justin

i was pretty sure some recent articles had talked about the band getting back in the studio... -justin

i thought you were going to be saying O'Rourke was insignificant. i was ready to give you a piece of mind! -justin

"Smokin' From Shootin'" and "Touch Me I'm Going To Scream Part 2" do kick major, major ass though. -justin

i feel the need to speak up on this one. i've been a rabid fan of the band for a number of years and, in regard to the trajectory of their career, i was just thinking the other day that, one day, i may be one of those people that says they like "early My Morning Jacket." maybe it's because i'm originally from the country myself, but i'm in love with the hazy, psychedelic vibe of The Tennessee Fire, At Dawn and It Still Moves. now, as far as Z goes, i think a great deal of the tracks are just excellent, but it lost the abandoned grain silo feel of the first three records, probably due in part t

>Philip Seymour Hoffman would be great to play Jay Bennett in holy shit! you're right! -justin

i'd love a link too...the mediafire one is dead. perhaps someone can re-upload it? it's not on waffles.fm...i'm thinking that's because it's reportedly 128 kbps... any help would be much appreciated. -justin
