That is a pretty awesome setlist, and I'm glad to see You'll Never Know making its way into the shows. I'm pretty sure this will be a kick-your-ass-tour for the band and the fans. I'm a little surprised to see such a non W(TA) focused setlist thus far, but at the same time I understand that they want to wait til the album officially comes out.

New Conor Oberst "solo" record -- "Outer South"
okp greg replied to redpillbox's topic in Someone Else's Song
Which forum is decent for Conor? The Saddle Creek one? I've never found a decent one, but based on Bright Eyes' history I don't recall seeing many soundboards or fm broadcasts. If they're torrents you can just download the txt file and see if it includes lineage. -

2009 Newport Folk Festival (50th anniversary!)
okp greg replied to spacepanda's topic in Someone Else's Song
I've heard rumors as well that they've had financial issues for the past 5 or so years. I guess that's why the sponsors always seem to change as well. I agree that I'd rather them do whatever they have to do to keep the festival alive. -
2009 Newport Folk Festival (50th anniversary!)
okp greg replied to spacepanda's topic in Someone Else's Song
Yeah, but I kinda like how it's always been split up into two easier days. Sure it makes it more expensive, but getting two shorter days of bands in a small park is worth it in my opinion. They really can't squeeze any more stages into the area they have as it is, and I'd hate to see it be somewhere else. I usually just go camping nearby with friends. Makes for quite the enjoyable and relaxed weekend. -
2009 Newport Folk Festival (50th anniversary!)
okp greg replied to spacepanda's topic in Someone Else's Song
The line-up is really weird. I thought they'd divide the indie/newer/whatever bands (decemberists, FF, I&W) between the days, but it almost looks like they're trying to segregate crowd types by age or something. SATURDAY, AUGUST 1 ~ 11:30 am – 7:00 pm Fort Adams State Park, Harrison Avenue Pete Seeger, The Decemberists, Fleet Foxes, Gillian Welch, The Avett Brothers, Billy Bragg, Iron & Wine, Mavis Staples, Tom Morello: The Nightwatchman, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Ben Kweller, The Low Anthem, Brett Dennen, Tift Merritt, Tao Rodriguez Seeger, Langho -
See I disagree with that. Just because they can't change the past doesn't necessarily mean they don't have free will. If they went back to present time, then they very well may have the will to do what ever they'd like.

Eligible for a new phone from Verizon
okp greg replied to Mrs. Peel's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
Haha yeah! I'm just so used to T9 that it's second nature at this point. I even know when I have to hit next & how many times to get to certain more common words. I'm deathly afraid of touchscreen or full keyboards because with my thumb on the 5 i know where every key I need to hit is without looking. -

That looks like such a great setlist.

But at the same time, honestly?!? Phantom chain flew by and wrapped itself around you in such terrible knots that Kate and Sawyer combined couldn't out-match it?

Eligible for a new phone from Verizon
okp greg replied to Mrs. Peel's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
That's honestly how I feel. I have the original V, and it does what I need perfectly. I actually wish it didn't even have the keyboard because I don't use the internet on it, and can text faster/one-handed with t9 on the outside. So when I look at upgrading I see a bunch of phones that are smart phones/blackberries & would require an internet plan or are touch screen, and none of that does anything for me. -

okp greg replied to Mrs. Peel's topic in Tongue-Tied Lightning
I'll admit a bias against touchscreens, but it doesn't change the fact that the Blackberry Storm simply sucks so I would cross that off your list. The software was slow in my experience, and the screen just didn't feel right. Plus it felt like it was a cheap phone as well. I know several people with the EnV2, and they all are fairly happy. Also one friend has the LG Dare (a touchscreen) and she likes it a lot as well. I have verizon too and I've been eligible for a new phone for like 2 years, but honestly just haven't seen one that's worth getting :-/ I'm still using the very first LG V -
Yeah there was a dude who was doing the whole "i'm drunk and need 30 square feet to dance" thing. Then Jeff told him that he's being an ass, and needed to calm down or he was on a path that's heading straight to Satan's kingdom. It was one of his funnier banter moments in my opinion.

"Isn't that ironic?" I'm looking at you Alanis!! -
Wow. I don't know how difficult it'd be for you to try to use user classes to limit it like some people on the ipb boards were suggesting but that sucks. Hopefully you won't have to wait for 3.0, I wonder why it seems to be only invision boards though. The only solution I could think of based on what I was reading is either the user classes, or if they implemented captcha's for pm's or for at least the first dozen or so from an account.
