Moss

I understand the ex wife letter and it's good. But part of me thinks she signed up for it. I don't know the situation but guessing the issues were there before they were married? Did she think he would suddenly get clean and turn his life around once the kids showed up?

REMember - an REM tribute band.

Wow, watched a snippet of video from the auction. Ringo is looking thin and healthy. All that Broccoli he is eating I guess. I need to follow the Beatles/Stones diet plan.

Non-guilty here too. Purple is a fantastic album. Musically they had some complex and unique chords and chord progressions and he had a great voice. We play Plush once in awhile and the crowd always loves it. I have to assume drugs were involved, otherwise I have to live with the possibility that someone my age can just die in their sleep.

Wow, how crazy that Ringo was in line at Tower records and managed to get white album #1?

Seals and Crofts - Summer Breeze Although Olivia Newton John - Have you never been mellow might have preceded it. Aah, the Minnesota State Fair

That documentary is playing next week nearby so I may go see it. Have many fond memories of tower records. Used to attempt the rhino music trivia challenge in the parking lot at tower L.A.

Hunting each other with BB guns. No goggles or pads. I remember getting hit in the side of the head about an inch from my eye and thinking how incredibly stupid it was, and painful. Then right back to the hunt. We actually had a rule of no head shots, then you would just peek over a hill and someone would take a shot.

Those lists are insane. I could never do that. Not even sure I could pull together a top ten.

Promised land sound - For use and delight Kind of like Django Django 2 newer albums I'm digging.

Maybe I'm a little bitter because I had a boss that would play Use your Illusion(s) over and over when we were manufacturing until I could not bear another listen. November rain is just laughably bad. Knockin on heavens door is cringe worthy. Really it's just Axl's voice that grates on me. Musically not a bad band. I realize going into a thread about a band and complaining is pretty lame. I do like some of the first album. Like Slash as a guitar player ok too.

I cracked one off to that video.

Tommy Stinson still in the band?

I can't help but draw a parallel with the new Star Wars movie. Franchise started strong with 2 good movies, then everything after sucked ass. Gn R had one good album, everything else sucked ass. Yet people seem excited. Me? Not so much.

Yeah, the blessed feathers was a pleasant surprise. Didn't care for Four tet so much. Thinking December will be chipmunks on red Vinyl.

Still listening to "From a compound eye" so might be behind. Also spending time on the underrated Bears for lunch GBV.

I have an audio Tehnica. Really want a Rega.

I'm considering going myself but not sure about the acoustic thing. Always preferred the heavier stuff.

Yay. Black Sabbath album for November.

I was happily surprised but like you said, there is great stuff and there is filler. Amazing how consistently good he is considering the output. Just a little bit of self editing would help but then it wouldn't be Pollard. I have not even touched the Circus devils stuff yet. Cripes.

Checking this one out now.

Today I found out Bill Murray is dating Jenny Lewis. Not sure why this shocked me.

You didn't visit the Replacements Let it be house?

Screaming for vengeance is an amazing album. I pretty much love everything through that. Then it gets spotty. People keep saying painkiller is really good but I remember not liking it. May have to try again. But yes, priest and Maiden should be in.

Loved the series but the final book is so awful I hesitate recommending it.
