Did your vinyl come with the 7" "Bonus tracks"? I have a vinyl copy as well, and it did. Too bad it's in storage in my crawlspace with the rest of my vinyl that I can't listen to since my (then) 2-year-old blew out my stereo which I haven't been able to replace yet because I have no money because I've been spending it all on words for run-on sentences like this one.

Amazing greatness. amazing. great.

The Jam - Sound Affects

Speaking of Minneapolis... Prince The Time Seriously... that is some amazing music. Get past the commercial appeal, and listen!!!

They're rerunning an interview with Levon on NPR (Fresh Air), as I type this. Pretty fantastic interview.

A great song is a great song. And this is a great song. Nice post, Louie.

I need a new TV, but I don't think that I'm going with HD. Frankly, I don't really give a shit. As long as the picture is CLEAR, I'm cool.

Anyone yet mention; Glenn Tillbrook (Squeeze) or Elliott Easton (The Cars) ? I don't think that they made my original list, but they are both pretty amazing and probably should have made my list. Listen to "Another Nail For My Heart" or "Best Friend's Girl".

Yeah, I know. Perhaps the reference to my upcoming recording was unnecessary. But, did you listen to the clip? I had nothing to do with that thing. No, I don't think that Tr

Solo in "Chickamauga" kills.

Thought of another couple that I haven't seen here, but who probably should have made my list (that's how forgeotten they are... they're a couple of my favorites and even I forgot him!): Glenn Tilbrook (Squeeze) Listen to the solos in "Is That Love" aor "Another Nail For My Heart" and tell me his isn't a monster! Elliott Easton (The Cars) Try "Best Friend's Girl" on for size.

Squeeze - Singles: 45's and Under Sly & The Family Stone - There's a Riot Goin' On The Decemberists - Castaways and Cutouts Dogbowl - Flan

My friend Tr

And see? I told you it was going to be a firestorm.

Because W agrees 100% with all his advisors. And he never changes his mind either. Shows strength..... or something.

Agreed, but he did have to respond. And the issues behind it all ARE issues.

pardon. I am oversensitive to sarcasm on a relatively new board. Or even to perceived sarcasm.

I believe that his response speaks to the greater issue: not only of what lies behind the Rev's sermons, but what lies behind the way each of us percieves those comments, and how we can begin to bridge that gap.

Hey now.. I admitted that this was self-promoting! And, I don't play out much at all. In fact, I've only played 2 or 3 club shows in the last 2 years. As far as promoting MIXTAPE -- ain't nothing to promote yet! Just the demos (which I'm giving away, anyway). I just like to get heard. So, feel free to slam me for self-promotion. But, it's not like I don't contribute to the conversation here. And, I don't think that I talk about my own band all that often. Do I? [sarcastic self-pity]If I do... leave me alone!!! I forget things!!! I had brain surgery, you know!!![/sarcastic self-pity]
