Wow. Somebody's bitter.

 

Bitter might be a bit of an understatement.

 

Fleetwood Mac - Rhiannon

 

Didn't really know about them. But now I sort of do, thanks to uh, Bill Simmons.

Honestly, I'd like to see just a night with Wilco sometime, but in my ideal world a Pavement+Wilco show would be motherfuckin' epic.

To me it's the same argument as "I'm all for gays marryin', they just gotta marry someone of the opposite sex." I honestly believe someone can believe they like and respect people to whom they would willingly deny rights.

 

I suppose we agree to disagree on that. If you aren't willing to grant full rights, then you aren't respecting them or liking them at all. I consider that on the level of "acknowledgement of existence," which is exactly what it sounds like. You aren't willing to accept them, but you obviously know they exist. Maybe I'm being too idealistic, but whatever.

Incorrect. "I'm not an _________, I just don't agree in giving you the same rights as others. But you can use my bathroom, along with piles and piles of the rest of you people."

 

Do you honestly believe that someone who won't give the rights that people deserve to them respects or even likes those people? I suppose that was my point. Seems like it's some pretty thinly veiled dislike to me.

"I'm not a(n) ___________, I just don't like you."

How would one go about getting your avatar? I'm not going to steal it for viachicago, but id like to see if I could use it in AIM

 

Anyways, back to the quotes...

 

"There is always money in the banana stand..."

 

If you Wikipedia "Arrested Development" and go to the TV show, scroll down a bunch and where they talk about show "characteristics," it's there.

 

"So...this is how you repay me for how I repay you?!?"

I super dig this record. The whole sinister stuff is awesome.

I'm sorry, I just proved you wrong. I don't necessary like them a whole lot but to consider them a bunch of clowns is fucking foolish.

 

Confession: I do like this album better than This Year's Model. Oops.

 

Not really bothering with the extended stuff, as per usual.

1. Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea

2. Pavement - Slanted & Enchanted

3. The Flaming Lips - The Soft Bulletin

4. Radiohead - OK Computer

5. My Bloody Valentine - Loveless

6. Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked Rain

7. Wilco - Being There

8. Uncle Tupelo - Anodyne

9. Wilco - Summerteeth

10. Pavement - Wowee Zowee

 

As you can see, a lot of Pavement

"OH MY GOD IT'S A FIRE....sale."

I mean, they had to exist in some way during the 90s and have not sucked for the greater duration of the decade. Really there's not a lot of criteria besides who was the best. Your opinion, I suppose, but I mean, given the certain set of musical tastes here, it's going to revolve around a few groups. I would usually recognize that they needed a good deal of critical acclaim, but there are dudes who slip under even their keen/blind eyes (depending on your view).

 

I'm surprised and disappointed that there haven't been any fisticuffs thrown over this thread, though.

Back to the original topic (sorta), Gibson deserves a boatload of ridicule for these monstrosities:

 

the "zoot suit"

 

Hideous!!

 

You gotta admit, they're trippy as shit though.

Just thought about this a little earlier. Curious to see what others think.

 

Pavement?

Radiohead?

Neutral Milk Hotel?

the Flaming Lips?

My Bloody Valentine?

Nirvana?

Beastie Boys?

Wilco?

REM?

Red Hot Chili Peppers?

Uncle Tupelo?

 

Let's hear it, folks. I'm def forgetting some bands. I personally am voting for Pavement. But my vote could change, I guess.

It was a great show, in terms of pure muscle it beat out all the previous Wilco shows I've went to. But it's not "I Am Your Face," it's "You Are My Face," and Liam Finn did some cowbell work on Hoodoo Voodoo, if I remember correctly.

Yeah, I don't really understand why that would make him say what he did. Sounds pretty judgmental to me.

 

Well, can you really enjoy a show when you're really that fucking drunk? You're probably getting more fun out of being drunk than from actually being at the show, and in some weird way it is disrespectful to the artist. It obviously shouldn't really be too big of a deal, but I can see how Tweedy can take it personally.
