  1. It would appear that's exactly when they'll start playing new tunes.
  2. I don't get the impression that they're playing SW straight through anymore. More like you'll hear a lot of it mixed with their 8 other albums. Not a bad scene, I wish I could come.
  3. The most important thing to remember is they're prone to change. Maybe not as erratically after the primaries but a lot can happen. If Trump can keep opening his dumb mouth no one will pay attention to another bunch of Hillary's boring emails.
  4. Yeah, actually the map I posted was a few days old. Georgia leans blue now and SC is looking like a swing state.
  5. Arizona and North Carolina are still touch and go, and as polling has shown in the last few months, polls change a lot from time to time. That said, if the map comes out close to this in November we won't have much to worry about.
  6. Now if someone would just post the second night on youtube.....
  7. Thanks for sharing. Good to hear those new ones lo-fi and solo. I can only imagine what the Wilcos will do with them.
  8. I saw he played another Schmilco song. Any impression of what it's like?
  9. He's not a Cubs guy, is he? I suppose growing up in Belleville the Cardinals are where it's at. The Brewers are just a charmingly humble, humble institution (lovable losers?).
  10. Wait, you're conservative right (?). Come back! We need perspective on the future of the right!
  11. Both Locator and If I Ever Was a Child have more of a focus than the more dadaist Random Name Generator or More.
  12. So far the strategy of standing back and watching him shoot himself in the foot repeatedly had worked well. So far he's insulted the family of a fallen soldier, a well regarded fire marshal and a baby.
  13. I always thought it was a moon too.
  14. I'm embarrassed to admit how much I enjoy the Counting Crows cover of this.
  15. Yeah, the conversation quickly became obsolete when HRC clearly had more regular delegates anyways. I suppose if the GOP used super delegates they may have sidestepped the whole Trump conundrum. There's no avoiding the fact that both the DNC's super delegates and the GOP's winner take all states are further tempering an already indirect form of democracy. Still, somehow both parties nominated unpopular candidates... it's bizarre. I wont retread it fully, but I'm still vexed that our fellow citizens couldn't sustain an interest in some more balanced candidates on both sides of the aisle.
  16. I'm kind of a skeptic about the old format wars, I like vinyl because it's nostalgic, interactive and mechanical. All of that said Sky, Blue, Sky just sounds better on vinyl. Most notably the bass. I didn't realize how elegant John's playing on that album was until I heard the wax.
  17. Yeah, I think many on here have astutely recognized that a certain core of his supporters haven't wavered in spite of him saying things that disqualify him in an intellectual, moral and leadership capacity. The good news is polling has started to turn. With any luck he peaked at the beginning of July and sanity is prevailing with moderates who don't admire Russia, support out troops, think foreign policy is nuanced, and wouldn't publicly badmouth a fire marshal after he rescues them from a stalled elevator. ** This just in, Clinton just tipped the scales back in her favor in the battlegro
  18. Oh man. Not only are people wrong, but they're interpreting an album they haven't heard.
  19. On that front you are subjectively wrong, but in the overall intention of this thread you are definitevely, objectively incorrect.
  20. I thought Hix was voting for Johnson. At any rate, the guy is a) smart, not insane, and c) right leaning. Most folks who fill all of those categories have been pretty quiet since Drumpf became the nominee.
