I think a piece of brain matter just came out of my nose. -

They get a free concert with Tweedy? Better than books, i'd say. What else do they need? -
Be Kind Rewind. Wasn't as good as Sunshine of the Spotless Mind but definitely was creative. Kind of cute. Mos Def's acting was really good. Jack Black was his usual self. Really good movie if you're into filmmaking or a fan of classic films such as Ghostbusters!

The coverage of the "fist-bump" is horrific. I can't even believe that this is an issue. These people are so dumb. Obama's going to be making his case to young evangelicals soon. He's launching a project called Joshua Generaiton: I think he'll fare well with young evangelicals and ones with decent minds/non-racist. McCain doesn't have much there though, he's willing to sell out. Obama also is going to have a staff dedicated to dispelling internet rumors. I still hear once a week someone say something about Obama being a muslim, swearing in on a Qu'ran, etc. Hopefully, they'll be effective

Thanks. I'm gonna check this out. The internet is such a scary place and then I come to ViaChicago and all is well. Thanks!

I'm working on a laptop project, recording some demos of songs that I've written. I want the demos to be pretty worked up because I'm mainly focusing on arrangements, new background melodies, writing vocal harmonies, etc. So this time around I want to put some emphasis on percussion and don't have a drum kit/don't want to work with drummer (This is a writing project, not performing). Does there exist in this world VST drum sounds that sound halfway realistic? Are there better options such as drum loops? I've found a couple good drum loops but they come in standardized tempos and I already am

Amazing movie. One of the funniest movies I've seen in a while. I also enjoyed this. I like foreign flicks but all the reading does a get a little tiresome. Amazing true story and well made movie.

The reviewer seemed to be focused on the lyrics, which isn't that important to me when it comes to MMJ. (Usually I can't even tell what he's saying). I really like the record. Not as good as Z but pretty damn good and they rocked SNL more than Wilco did. Also, I was watching Californication and MMJ's Rocketman was in it.

btw, I saw the Onion Movie last night. Way better than I thought it would be. Amazing!

I contributed to Wilco and Loose Fur. Just minor details. I don't have the patience or interest in writing a paragraph.

I'll assume you mean that's a goof thing. Thank god. I like the new single but those last 2 were the soundtrack to toolville.

Listening for the first time. That first track goes from Toothbrush style to next centruy in less than a minute. Lovin' it so far.

I like that. but she's a jar (one of my favorites) doesn't touch the lyrical poetic quality of it. She's a jar has really great lyrics but IATTBYH is like modern poetry set to a good melody -
Awesome movie

I'm surprised. Didn't Tony have some deep seated resentment towards Trey after he disbanded the group. Looks like no horns. I miss the Truth in his jumpsuit dancing on stage. I played with Grippo once and everytime I saw him no matter where it was, he was in that black jumpsuit. Then when he showed up to play the show with me he was in one of the nicest suits I've seen in my life.

I have a ball that Steve Avery, Javy Lopez, Mark Lemke, and Ryan Klesko signed. It's unconfirmable, but it was supposedly hit by David Justice in BP. There's a huge mark on it from the bat. I can't believe it could be over for Smoltz. But if he says he's in pain you know it has to be bad. That guy would still pitch if a tiger bit his arm off.

As a Florida democrat I assumed this was the case but actually only 2 people out of both houses voted against moving the date, and they were both Republicans. So that decision was made by both sides of the aisle. If it wasn't moved up, I'm not sure who would have won. Probably still Clinton, but you never know. They didn't campaign here and not many people knew Obama. There was high voter turnout because of a high profile state amendment and I think when it got to the president question, people may have voted for name recognition.

While My Guitar narrowly beat Stairway. I like that.
