I read somewhere the writers were pushing for some kind of romance and Capaldi absolutely (and wisely) put his foot down and said no way. Even with Tennant and Smith the romance thing just does not work for me so glad to see Capaldi pushing back.

Nice to hear somebody say that. I really liked Greendale but it seems to get more negative than positive reviews. I'll have to give this one a listen.

I just spent the last 5 months unemployed. It was a strange and humbling experience. I interviewed in Seattle, Pennsylvania, San Francisco, Oceanside and ended up finding a job about 2 miles from where I used to work. I will actually be working about 50 feet from Boulder Beer which could be dangerous. I start Monday. I just assumed I would be moving to California so I sold my piano, my lawnmower, got rid of 10 boxes of books, etc... thinking I would need to downsize. Now it turns out I'm staying. I'm a happy man. Hang in there, it can be a slow and painful process, especially the netwo

Drink lots of Odells, stay away from Ft. Collins Brewery. Not sure who will be there but Liquid Mechanics, Vindication, and Bootstrap are worth checking out. I have been meaning to check this place out, it just opened: http://www.dungeonsanddrafts.com/ Other than that, Ft. Collins is a great city that is worth exploring. If you get a chance, head up to the Mish. Robert Randolph is playing up there this weekend. It's an amazing venue up in the mountains. You can take a bus from Ft. Collins so no issues with driving drunk. The scenery is amazing. http://www.themishawaka.com/

Good question. I helped can beer awhile ago and it was very manual with a ton of beer loss. Constant cans getting jammed, caps not put on right, overfills, underfills, etc... so there has to be far more loss than a growler. My guess is that it comes down to the fact that there is no competition when filling growlers. The cans have to sit on a shelf and compete with a ton of other beers for your money so they have to lower the price. Maybe I'll ask my buddies at the brewery since I'm heading over in 20 minutes.

Hmmm. Maybe I should just add some sort of Amp to the system.

Rather than start a new thread, this one seems like it will work. I couldn't find an "audiophile" thread. Anyways, I'm looking at getting some new Stereo speakers but don't really understand power requirements and things. Basically I have: Denon DRA-545R Receiver which looks to have a power rating of 60 watts per channel into 8 ohms The speakers I was thinking about getting are the B&W 684 S2 (although I'm open to other suggestions) that list for recommended amplifier power as: 25-150 Watt into 8 ohms This would be just for my turntable, CD player, Cassette, no home theater requir

That Chastity Belt album is really good.

Just finished season 1 of True Detective. Amazing. Loved Mcconaughey's acting throughout. And Woody was really good too. Looking forward to actually watching season 2 as it happens.

Love reading peoples thoughts on this. I have to say my love of music has not really changed. I buy more now than I ever did (because i can) and I still get incredibly excited when I find something I love. I look forward to putting the headphones on and listening to something in bed with the lights off as I drift off. What has changed is my emotional connection. I can still be very moved but nothing like when I was Sixteen and I have to assume that is normal. I just don't have the hormones coursing through me like I did then. But as I get older (47) I do find I have a capacity for a deeper

Wow. Is that at all Targets? Am I too late? Will be checking tomorrow.

This might be my favorite Nick Cave. I find myself returning to it more than any other lately.

I won't lie, I find free jazz pretty unlistenable but he was certainly an artist and pushed the boundaries.

Yes but what are your 5 favorite Garcia songs?

Didn't know what thread to use but this one is as good as any, my Days of Dungeon and Dragons are long gone. This cracked me up:

This is the next one I want to read. Fagan recently did some writing for Rolling Stone on a festival Steely Dan played at and it was hilarious. Has that cynical, grouchy old man persona.

http://viachicago.org/topic/48851-dawes-stories-dont-end/?fromsearch= Well there is that this one. I don't know, the last few have kind of bored me. They put on a great live show but the last few records just seem so AOR easy listening. Love the first album.

Great song. Sorry for your loss A-man.

Got a Barnes and Noble gift certificate so I'm thinking of picking up the Neil Young Biography Shakey. In perusing this thread it seems like that one holds up as maybe the best Book about Neil Young? Or has something else come along that would be a better purchase?

In the last issue of MOJO they mentioned this as an essential recording. The wording is "Highlighted by the platonic rendition of the ebullient Scarlet Begonias/Fire on the Mountain pairing, from the heart of an action-packed and well-practiced tour as equally revered as Europe '72, this never-released show is a cornerstone in any Dead collection." Not all the clear on what a platonic rendition is exactly...Either way, I'm listening to it now and it does sound pretty damn good. Next up for me is 9/11/74, or as MOJO put it "Some of the band's most dizzying on-stage avant-garde improv, th
