Still haven’t received shipping notification for my super deluxe set! It’s killing me.

I did not mind the CC repeats. I was actually hoping for a repeat of Many Worlds.

Seconding this! Thought for sure we’d get Many Worlds once it was established we’d hear a few repeats off of CC

I too was won over by Morby by his set at SS. Even caught his pop up there.  Been a fan ever since.  I've listened to the stream of his new one a few times and I'm really loving it.  Waiting for my VinylMePlease pressing to arrive (just got the shipping notice today) I will post the pretty colors when it arrives!

My box arrived yesterday (Monday) and my tracking # email arrived today (Tuesday).  Lol

Looks like Rough Trade here in New York has some for sale online.

Hey is anyone looking for two tickets to Jeff's book thing tonight at Murmrr in Brooklyn? My buddy and I are going but our two other friends bailed so we have two extras. Looking for face value $45. The tickets are in the balcony  DM if interested.

Listening to mine now!  Glad to have this on vinyl finally!

I voted too!

Thanks for the heads up, I just ordered it as well!

I snagged a copy of Down by the Old Mainstream on Discogs a couple of months back for $40 bucks and was quite happy about it.

Still need Another Fine Day but its still kind of pricey.

Friday night = Mermaid show feat. Billy Bragg

While i would love a Mermaid Avenue set for Firday, I was listening to the AM and Being There reissues today and it occurred to me that an awesome Friday set would just be non-album and b-sides set.  Between these new reissues and Alpha Mike Foxtrot there would be plenty of amazing setlists that they could come up with.  Perhaps we might even get another reissue with additional tracks before then.

Luna at Brooklyn Steel!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs tonight at Kings Theatre in Brooklyn!

The new live album just rips! I'm not always the biggest fan of live albums but the sound on this is pristine and the band sounds ferocious.  Highlights include the band jumping into a teetering version of Answering Machine taking it from a near miss to one of the highlights of the set.

Oh, if you can't tell from my nickname, I'm a bit of a Replacements/Westerberg/Stinson fan.

 

Why do you guys think the title is "Together at Last"?

Perhaps all it means is Jeff was planning on doing something like this for a while and finally got these recordings "together at last"

My wife and I will be down in the orch2 row F. Lucked out on the presale too.  Can't wait!

Tommy Stinson's Bash & Pop at Mercury Lounge!  It will be the first show I'm attending this year and I can't wait.  Friday Night is Killing Me is perhaps my favorite post Replacements release from either Tommy or Paul.

Best news in the past week!

That's a good point. We'll never know who'd actually win every 4 years if every eligible voter actually voted.

Quit saying "majority of american voters" Both candidates got about 25% from American Voters. 

 

Majority of votes? Yes. Majority of voters? No. Half the voters did not vote. 

Actually it is the "majority of american voters" because it was those who voted.  It would be incorrect to say the "majority of eligible american voters".  Sadly we will never ever know what all eligible voters think because somehow not every single person thinks it is important to vote but I think this entire election cycle has proven that everyone who can, should vote. Perhaps if all eligible voters had gotten out during the primaries we would have been presented with two more relatable candidates. But the point is it is a fact that of all those who voted which is all that maters, the majority of voters voted for Hilary Clinton and that is an undeniable fact and anyone who says that not winning the popular vote constitutes a "dominant victory" seems out of tune with math and statistics.  I would say what constitutes a "dominant victory" would be winning both the popular vote AND the electoral college count but perhaps that is just my opinion. But that most certainly did not occur.

If you don't vote, you're not a voter.  Clinton got the majority of votes from the voters in this election.  That is a fact.  

Damn you beat me to it as i was writing my long winded version of the same thing.

I'm hoping for another source as well. Sorry to have missed this.

Saw Love and Mercy last night. Fantastic though I of course would have preferred to be listening to the pitchfork stream but what can you do.

Might be the first to hear a Star Wars track while out! Out to dinner with my wife yesterday in Brooklyn and heard "More..."

So far so so so GOOD!

Another possible act that would have been nice was Mac from Superchunk who has his first solo album coming out. But again anything on top of 2 nights of Wilco and a Tweedy performance was icing on an already awesome cake.
