Yet in Jann Wenner's world, that doesn't make you a viable member of Fleetwood Mac.

This is only related to this thread via the last few posts but, as I have stated before in other threads, what is the problem with being forthcoming in this message board? I don't understand the aliases and lack of details in profiles. It would be difficult enough to have a real conversation via via chicago (har har), or any cyber pub, if we were being honest and open. It is arguably pointless to do so when people are disguised, dishonest and disingenuous. If I knew how to do it, my photo would be in my avatar space. Read my profile. Why have a profile area if you aren't going to make a profil

A friend sent me this:

I read this 1998 article a few days ago and doing so made me angry. The RandR HOF is inane. http://blog.cleveland.com/pdextra/2012/06/rock_and_roll_hall_of_fame_snu.html

Woth. I am unfamiliar with this term. Is it English?

I honestly have never given a fuck what songs mean. I put no time into thinking about it. When the lyrics are obvious as to meaning, okay. When the lyrics are not obvious, okay. I just enjoy the song or I don't. I never really think about it. I probably don't enjoy music as much as others. Oh well.

The following was in the comment section in a story about the WI recall at npr.org. Wow. Comment sections can have a very high amusement factor. I just completed my 26th year of teaching high school. It warms my heart knowing that I am highly respected by a fellow citizen. Many more fine citizens have clicked "recommend". Thanks, ya'll. Hugh Everett (evangel-of-self-reliance) wrote: There are many more of us taxpayers than there are of you government employees. You work for us, and we can no longer afford you, so you're fired.

To each his or her own but when I think of what I could spend $250-$300 on ($500-$600 really because my wife and I do things together) 2 or even 3 hours of live music, no matter the artist, would never make the cut. Cue Tevye singing.

I am trying to remember logic class from 30 years ago... something about syllogisms seems to apply here but i can't quite get it. Damn.

This "businesses are job creators" canard is testament to our nation's collective lack of critical thinking ability. The only true job creators are consumers. If demand doesn't increase, supply won't be increased. The only reason a business hires more workers is to produce more of their product to meet the increased demand. Businesses don't want to hire more workers because paying more wages means less profits for the stockholders. They are only going to do so if the higher demand (sales) allows higher profits in spite of increasing wages. Of course the businesses do the actual hiring but only

For jaded, I look to Eazy-E. "Fuck a bitch and then get high".

This is exactly what I was thinking when I first posted the review. Thank you for articulating it.

I know that the show was 2 weeks ago but I didn't come across this local review until today. My response to it is cliched but apt, "was I at the same show?" I am interested to know other attendees reactions. It isn't too long of a read. Thanks. http://cltampa.com/tampa/concert-review-wilco-at-the-straz-center-for-the-performing-arts-tampa/Content?oid=2958002#.T8JpBWt5mK0

Ha ha! It certainly sounded like the rhyming, lilting cadence of Jesse Jackson.

Is this simply an honest failure to cite a source or are you claiming the Reverend Jackson's words as your own?

Most leprechauns are bisexual.

Allsome.

Just remember that we heard it here first.

Allsome.

The Black Bloc(k).

I'm not saying they shouldn't play together but I think that it is so unlikely, I will kiss your allsome ass if they do it.

So which is it? No love for Erasure or no love for me?

It should only happen if Jeff Tweedy and Jay Farrar simply cover 'Reunion', with stoic, stone-faced Jay taking Vince Clarke's place on keyboards and Jeff singing and prancing about ala Andy Bell while wearing a tutu.

Ha! I love that show, dog.

Definitley as excellent as Tampa. The only reason why I'd say it was better is because we were in the 1st row instead of the 9th. I didn't notice any sound problems but I am not an audiophile. All of the instruments and vocals were prominent to us directly in front of Pat. Another great crowd with the band in a fine energetic mood again. We were on our feet all night. Another excellent set list, Poor Places to open and doubly good for us as 10 of the songs were not played in Tampa. Pot Kettle Black and Box Full of Letters! I expected the same Monday/Outtasite encore since they were alternating
