  1. it's gonna have to be better than 'Fix It', that song is not very good
  2. while i disagree with Lou's assessment SOMEWHAT... i think i can safely say that some people have more emotional and personal attachment to music than others, which often means that you put yourself in the shoes of the writer/singer when listening to music. like, and call me condescending for this comment, fine, but i can't imagine someone listening to Lennon's 'Imagine' and truly absorbing the words and meaning, while having a world view that is almost completely the opposite of what Lennon was saying (not saying you or Jules love Imagine, or have a completely opposite world view, even if y
  3. they're playing w/ Blitzen Trapper here next month... can't WAIT Liz, their other record 'Words Are Dead' is really good too
  4. imo it is... the sound is amazing, and it's hard to imagine this was an OPENING set!
  5. amazing release/recording
  6. it's great, but prolly just outside of my top 10 at this point... hard to say
  7. i love Brokaw, great man (met him a few times back in Bozeman, MT where he has a vacation home near), but he wasn't in control last night, that's for sure. it's not so much the candidates job to stay under their time as it is the moderator's job to cut them off and force them to wrap it up asap. that said, what do you want him to retire from? he retired in 2004... he reports on things occasionally these days, and has been the interim host of Meet The Press since Russert's death (and done a decent job, but too old to take over full time), but he's mostly a free agent.
  8. gotta be honest... i'd have probably scored tonight's debate a tie... which means an Obama win in the grand scheme. really really boring stuff, even compared to the first debate. a good portion of it was a complete rehash. let's hope next week's debate is a bit more livlier. regardless, this thing is f'n OVER game. set. match.
  9. haha, i know... but i wanted the giveaway to take precedence (i suppose i could have merged the two and edited the title myself though ) happy now?
  10. http://morecowbell.net/2008/10/07/okobs-fe...icket-giveaway/ Featuring: Ben Harper Death Cab For Cutie Ben Folds M. Ward Ingrid Michaelson Jewel Oct 11th Resch Cener Green Bay, WI http://www.okobos.com/festival/lineupreschcenter.php Ryan is also doing a giveaway: http://www.muzzleofbees.com/2008/10/06/giv...music-festival/
  11. pretty excited to see them in a month and a half... one of the few band from my early youth i've never seen live
  12. should be better now i hope, they just released a security upgrade to combat spam over the weekend
  13. BSP are fab. still one of my fave ROCK albums of '08
  14. back now. didn't know anyone was using it
  15. fuck that album cover is amazing... i suppose i should check it out
  16. Ted is friggin' the SHIT it was surreal seeing them open for Pearl Jam @ MSG after some of the tiny rinky dink shows i've seen 'em do over the years, but they filled that place.
  17. i can safely now say this is my favorite album of the year without question... it just keeps getting better and better too PFM is slacking (tho they gave their last one an 8.5, and this is way better than that, they'll prolly give it some shitty mid-7 score now...)
  18. sad thing is, she talks in there how she's a HILLARY supporter and voted for her in the primary
  19. Rabbit Fur Coat = 8.9 Acid Tongue = 7.8 Fernando is fun, but also pretty lame. i got tired of it after a couple listens.
  20. i heard these over the course of his 3 show run in Mpls last December... they sounded killer then, can't wait!
  21. it won't end... but the US's status in the world and our economy certainly won't be helped...
  22. live show = great first album = pretty good, but simply a collection of their earlier EP's new album = not so good... in fact i'm tempted to sell my ticket to their sold out show next week as a result
  23. i hate the "she's just so normal/likeable" argument... NO SHE'S NOT, SHE'S ANNOYING AS HELL! i don't care if she was on the Dem ticket, i'd still find her personality and accent annoying
