Quit smoking and lose weight at the same time. Good luck!!

Back in 1993 I went to an incredible cajun restaurant called Bros. If you like Cajun, it appears to still be open. http://www.broscajuncuisine.com/

9:07 CST and this is the first post of 2012? Huh.

Not Jay Farrar. Unless acting miserable counts.

Neil Young has been copied so much that I think you'd find yourself wrong guessing him sometimes. Monk? Hell yes. Maybe the single most unique composer and performer -- who maintained a shred of tonality -- in American music.

What about rap artists? Will Smith, LL Cool J, Ice T, Ice Cube, eminem (barely), lots o' others. Also, you know what movie Bowie had a great, bit piece in? Into the Night with Michelle Pfeiffer and Jeff Goldblum. A great sleeper (more accurately, insomniac) movie directed by John Landis.

In 1986, when I was 15, my parents showed me that movie. I think it was the 1st time I realized my parents had the potential for coolness.

Bob Mould - 70ish% - Pretty much everything from 83-98 is pure gold. His first solo CD, Workbook, has been my personal favorite from the moment I heard it in 1989. Not much even good since '98. Not sure I could compile a 45 min. playlist of listenable music since then. Bowie - 50-60% - Hunky Dory through Tonight is pretty damn good. Let's Dance and Tonight have some clunkers, but some gems too. Tin Machine's first is mostly great, then lots of hit and miss. Wilco - 95% - W(TA) is mediocre, AM is a band figuring out who they are. The rest is phenomenal. Iggy Pop Lou Reed - Around

You should hire her!

I hope Havel kicks him in the nutsack!

I figured it went w/o saying that I was checking here... Didn't know about bootsdaily, but will add it to my rotation. Thanks!

I'm checking etree and dime about every 12 hours...

^ I'll be over in 5 mintues

If I didn't know they had a slew of dates in 2012 I'd say this run of shows could be their swan song.

That's because you're Jules and he saw your wallet

And cover Hootenanny by the Replacements

I (well, most, I suspect) knew it was too good be true. You're never done, are you?

Nevermind, I didn't notice it as a separate encore below the 2nd set of dotted lines.

Surprised they dumped Cruel To Be Kind from the encore. Glad I got to saw it at Val Air.

This thread is about to become NSFW

It's pretty funny that the crowd wanted such a raucous show, and we did. We were an old bunch. I'm 41 and saw as many people who looked my age or older as those who looked younger. Hardly anyone looked under 30.

Just watched that online. Blew me away! 48:00 in, Bob Mould's Black Sheet of Rain. Wow, just wow!

Yeah, my plan was to sit up at the tables during Nick Lowe, but decided right away that there would be no way to hear the show from there. Kind of a disappointing reception for him. But I think he knows what the deal is when you're an opener.
