Oh yeah, I forgot the Decemberists on my list.

Very few albums grab me on the first listen so I do need to step back and try to live with an album for awhile but it's so hard to do. I have a subscription to MOJO and they have about 50 new albums reviewed every issue and a large number of them sound interesting. I definitely get more music than I end up listening to. This board is very helpful in helping me wade through the huge amount of music so I do listen to people's opinions about what is good. Really enjoying the new Califone which is a direct result of what I have heard here. It is tough to not listen to something once and then

Not to mention the music was probably deeply offensive to their religious sensibilities.

Those look fantastic. I have a framed poster from the Red Rocks show in 2003 but I like yours better. Very cool.

Link?

Now that's funny. Actually I really do have the CD and went out and bought the first album as well so I have a clear conscience. It will always be Seven mile island to me though.

I thought it was fantastic and will be checking them out again. Amazing how well they pulled it off. They announced at the end that it was a show from 5/11/80. Great atmosphere with everyone around me trying to guess what show it was, very friendly crowd, everyone dancing and having a good time. The Fillmore was actually packed and that is not a small place. Overall, highly recommended for anyone that likes the Dead. Thanks for asking!

QFT I sure hope I won't be disappointed about this one. With that rhythm section I would sound good playing guitar.

I knew what you meant.

Head cheese jello

I'm thinking there is going to be a rash of "Balloon boy" costumes this year.

Certainly it's an oppurtunity for these artists to weigh in with their moral outrage and that's why they are doing it, but I see a big difference between torture and strip clubs or some of the other examples. Are we incapable of drawing the line somewhere anymore? I don't know if it should be a law or anything but certainly the artists have the right to be outraged. It's torture for god's sake.

I like Turtles!

Yesterday by the Beatles would be a great cover! Edit: Ok, bad joke.

You have just confirmed my opinion that I have no desire to see that movie.

I actually had that poster in my dorm room back in the 80's.

So true.

I get so excited with threads like this. Can't wait to hear this one!

I did not iron my name on either although I was thinking of ironing on "the shit hits" (the fan) if I ever get around to it.

This is tough, top 5 in no order: 1. Wilco (the album) 2. Jason Isbell - Seven Mile Island 3. Farm - Dinosaur Jr. 4. The Cribs - Ignore the ignorant 5. Son Volt - American Central Dust I don't know, these are off the top of my head. I have not heard the new Califone (but will very soon).

Streamed "The Mission of Burma Story: Not a Photograph" on Netflix the other night. Recommended

That Mould looks amazing, what a great picture. I can almost see what pedals he is using. He is in my top 5 list of people I have never seen live that I really want to see.

As good as the Red album? That's probably the first new metal album I have really enjoyed in a long time.

That is quite ugly.

Interesting, they are playing Uncle Tupelo on my Pandora Robert Pollard station.
