There are many years where there are no albums like that. And there are more and more years like that, the older I get.

I am loving this Yuck album. maybe it's nostalgia, but this is just wonderful.

Just a couple of songs in and, yeah, these kids are dedicated to that sound! Still, I am digging the hell out of this, because it's the sound that I came of age to, also. And they do it really well. Plus, so far, the songs are good. Dig it.

I just entered to win tix to see him at Symphony Center via XRT. We'll see if my lucky streak continues. Oh, and no word that I've heard about the MCA.

That Yuck album just arrived in my inbox. From what I've been hearing on the boards and in the press, this may wind up shifting around my top 10 or even top 5? Gonna give it a first listen soon.

That's okay, he'll probably play 6 or 7 in Chicago.

A little bit surprised about that one, although I probably shouldn't be.

So far, so awesome. Black Flag come off as insufferable assholes -- at least Ginn and Rollins do. The Minutemen -- I still want to hang out with them, Mission of Burma, too.

I gotta ask: who's on your guitar?

This is true for the following reasons: I can have cookies whenever I want. I will never have Scarlett Johansen.

Damn, that man could play! Rest in peace.

IT'S DECEMBER, PEOPLE!

Have my parents babysit and have a week in Italy alone with my wife.

Except maybe for the chocolate-dipped ones:

Whose show is it? (It originates from WBEZ in Chicago.)
