sorry, i couldn't find a smaller image.

staying w/ the local theme and Wilco's occasional penchant for outlier/fringe musicians, this would be a perfect time to get Ben Chasny and Dredd Foole on stage. or better yet, also include Rangda! Corsano was roaming around at least two of these already, and Glenn specifically gave him a shout out at the drum installation at SSF 1 when he was in the room. Rick Bishop's already played one, and Chasny is local too (at least i think he still lives in Western MA). a Rangda set would be intense. do it, please, Wilco!

Lucius is big enough to headline at T5? damn, when did that happen?

Mascis is a natural local pick. Malkmus would rule. How about Mission of Burma? or going back to the Tweedy video w/ the cameo of Steve in it, a Shellac set would be awesome.

i would love Ribot playing a Cubanos Postizos set.

Black Mirror is great. two shows to go.

not in the top 10! http://wallstcheatsheet.com/personal-finance/top-10-states-with-the-highest-taxes.html/?a=viewall NH has no state income nor sales tax, but their property tax is very high to make up for that shortfall. and a pretty sizable portion of people who live in Southern NH end up working in MA so they end up paying the 5.2% income tax anyway.

I would love to see a No Blanket/Chair zone like at Newport FF

semi-related, but i don't feel like starting a new thread on it (at least not yet)... does anyone have an extra spot, lodging-wise? the timing of SSF is when we drop our kids off to summer camp, so my wife can't make it but i got the green light to go.

spoiled w/ the 1st two SSFs. it was definitely way more crowded for #3 (esp around the courtyard stage that the balcony overlooks...the one where The Blisters played) and i was pretty bummed that even my press pass wouldn't get me into the Hunter to catch even a minute of the Cline/Lage show. but was the event truly sold out?

yeah i can't sink the time into going to rummage sales and the like; as it is, i barely make it to the local shops a few times a year. discogs is becoming increasingly my go to site for used stuff.

Ain't nobody got time for that. at least not anymore, since the advent of ebay and discogs.

not discovering the band per se, but the song for sure: Red Temple Spirits - The Nile Song (Pink Floyd) Spacemen 3 - Rollercoaster (13th Floor Elevators)

except, of course, for J Geils.

https://twitter.com/lisabloom the prosecution was a joke.

55 pages. really, did you count how often you had to page down? what about the font size and the embedded images and videos? as for essential reading, this is the politics thread right, not the michael brown thread? it basically talks about the underlying tension and intimidation that occurs on a daily basis. what about the manually rigged red light, you are OK w/ that too? how about judges and prosecutors playing multiple roles? but i must commend you on acquiescing to my demand to read that article. well done.

this is a good question, but one that taxes my failing memory. i think the Damned's cover of "Alone Again Or" was my first exposure to Love. sad to say, but i am also pretty sure that Blake Babies' cover of "Loose" was my first Stooges experience. Sonic Youth's cover of "Hotwire My Heart" was certainly the first time I heard Crime. and CVB's cover of "I Love Her All The Time" may or may not have pre-dated when I first heard Bad Moon Rising.

it's a piece about how the way StL's surrounding towns are divvied up, geographically, and how their town govt's and courts are designed to basically live off poor people via draconian traffic violation enforcement. sounds gripping, right? it's pretty eye-opening and depressing. and call it an assumption, but if all Hixter felt worth mentioning was the travails of the first women profiled in the piece, he certainly didn't get half way through it.

it was a joke. but i've got work to do and am not VC's cliff notes function. "painfully long" is an interesting way to look at it. unfortunately, sound bites dominate our media. read it tonight if you need some time.

sorry tl;dr your post

i think it's probably more like 15% of the way through. it's a pretty long article w/ a lot more content.

Keep reading, mr lawful.

Essential reading. I'd be pissed as fucking hell too. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-watch/wp/2014/09/03/how-st-louis-county-missouri-profits-from-poverty/

Canceled my order at the collectors choice shyster site and drove to Bull Moose for a copy. Also picked up the new Shellac, YOB, and a Boards of Canada 12". Looks and sounds superb so far.
