this thread rules. i may not see eye to eye w/ Hixter on political issues, but i would definitely have a beer w/ him.

during Thurston's set.

i thought that Two Hearted was overrated. would like to try some Three Floyds stuff at some point.

Jealous of you west coasters with access to Deschutes. Sierra Nevada Torpedo is great too. For local IPAs, Slumbrew's Flagraiser is a great one. And Smuttynose is unfairly taken for granted.

i don't think it is, but you never know.

any gay people wanting to cater their wedding w/ pizzas is gonna have to look elsewhere: http://www.abc57.com/story/28681598/rfra-first-business-to-publicly-deny-same-sex-service but they can eat it in the store:

unless the weather plays havoc. on the 2nd one, the wind and rain kinda messed w/ the sound a bit, nothing you can do about that.... the hazards of an open air PA.

dredging up 3 weeks' of memory, the Pliny was a lot drier whereas the Deschutes seemed to have a much rounder, fuller profile. bah, it's hard to describe what things taste like.

hey, there's always Ted Nugent, Charlie Daniels, and Kid Rock.

you'll have to wait for the new issue of The Big Takeover to come out, probably late April or so. i'll have some live shots though. they were super friendly. i recognized one of the touring members as a guy who also played w/ Teenage Fanclub when i did a shoot w/ them a while back (Dave something or other). Stuart also took my request of Fox In The Snow and played it.

Belle & Sebastian. Just did a photo shoot with them. Proper Scots!

i should have tried the Blind Pig when i was at the Toronado.... i had the Elder, a Deschutes Fresh Squeezed, and a Moonlight Boat to Bombay. the difference between the Pliny and the FS was shocking.

i finally got to try Pliny the Elder (btw is it pronounced like Plinny? or Pliney?) when i was in SF two weeks ago. Coit Liquors had some but you had to ask, they didn't have it in the display case. on my third trip there (limit of 2 per person per day), there were two women from Boston in front of me, buying some for friends back home. woman - "I'd like to buy six Plinys, please." store clerk - "Sorry, I can only sell you one or two bottles." woman - "Is it that good?" store clerk - "It's that popular"

right on.

better than "Carnage Visors"

obviously my comparison was meant as hyperbole, but every journey begins with a step. do you recall when the Taliban first appeared on the world's radar screen? or at least mine? it wasn't by a public be-heading or stoning. it was when they toppled and destroyed some ancient artifacts that didn't fit their outlook.

agree 100%. it's a fairly recent (ie, last half century or so) development: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jeff-schweitzer/founding-fathers-we-are-n_b_6761840.html

play him some Cannibal Ox and ask who its derived from.

it all starts w/ religious zealots. or maybe bombing abortion clinics is a step up from stoning people?

i'd go but i'll be at a festival.

i like her style. some of her songs could use a bit more variation (which is weird, coming from someone who likes The Fall). saw her last year w/ Benjamin Booker at the Sinclair, and now they both have sold out shows there soon.

hey, look! the US has it's own Taliban. and they can make laws.
