holy shit. this is not from The Onion. http://m.chron.com/news/houston-texas/article/Texas-lawmaker-suggests-Asians-adopt-easier-names-1550512.php

Albini was on my write-in ballot.

Behemoth were amazing. CC, not so much

i've seen Jim play twice... once w/ Brise-Glace, and once w/ Sonic Youth. I'd go for a 3rd time.

yes, please.

Behemoth and Cannibal Corpse.

but really.... what's the big story?

you really need me to spell this out for you? why do you think there's a 5 and half fold difference of people who think our president (who's been in the public eye for quite some time now) is Muslim, when broken down by party?

54%. FIFTY-FOUR PERCENT. as to your Scott Walker comment, i suppose holding our elected leaders to a higher level of knowledge is unreasonable.

sigh.

i found out about The Chameleons sometime in college, but can't remember exactly how.... a younger neighbor of a good friend of mine from high school had a copy of the debut record, but i can't recall if i'd already grabbed a copy of _Strange Times_ in the cut-out bin, an unfortunate but familiar place for that outstanding record after Geffen dropped them. anyway, i never saw them in their original phase, and sadly (i really don't know what i was thinking) didn't see their 2000 reunion tour either. i'd moved out of the city and we just had our first kid and i was barely seeing any concerts in

sorry, i can't hear you from my hyperbolic chamber.

wait.... abortions kill healthy babies?!?! when did this start?

Real Estate is a distinct possibility...

were they going for the beej look on purpose, or was that just an accident?

yeah, Page kinda jumpstarted the band back to life in 2004. all ringers, though. not that anyone is mourning the loss of Mengede or Bogdan, but Stanier knows his way around a drum kit. here's a vid i recorded: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3H9O6BIh6Y

sorted, thanks! PEOPLE REALLY DO WIN ON VIA CHICAGO (are there any ex- or current members of Postal Blowfish on here who would get this reference?)

i didn't know who she was so i googled her. i also wasn't aware of the mumblecore film movement. out of the loop.

my wife and i are about halfway through season one of The Americans and it's really entertaining.

i'm flying solo this year, and like an idiot i never got around to booking a room at the places I've stayed before... and the Airbnb places are either too far or more $ than i'd ideally like to spend. so, just putting it out there to see if anyone has room in their particular lodging scheme... my cameras don't take up much space.

HELMET.

i am not sure, but i'm thinking that Molly Hatchet opened with "Gator Country"

i'm pretty confident that the S-K crew is on my side of the Dead camp.

how was it?
