Just had some of their beer at the West Loop Craft Beer Fest over the weekend. Good stuff.

It's definitely mine.

How you like it?

Wow. I thought that he died long ago. RIP to a true giant.

Well, this was the first one that came to mind when I saw the thread title, but I didn't post it because Miles isn't really "rock and roll" now, is he? But I guess that, for this thread, he's close enough. Read it at the beach on my honeymoon and it was fantastic. Some great stories and insights about most of the biggest names in 20th century jazz. Entertaining, insightful, and a just plain great read. Highly recommended. How's that one, Louie? You read it?

Likewise, I was disappointed with the Richard Hell book. I mean, some of it was interesting, but most of it came off as a lot of bitching, self-aggrandizing, and sour grapes. I'll think of a favorite sometime soon, though.

I'm not as into NEWER bands as I used to be, although I still search them out because there are always a few that get me excited. But, overall… I live music every bit as much as I always have. Still obsessed.

I had my iPod on "Shuffle" in my car, and one of my own songs came on and I was like, "Damn, this is a pretty goddamn good song!" I love it when that happens.
