this record is totally amazing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wo7jnGJNx7w

stretching the term 'rock star,' but...

not sure if you are being serious or not, but i couldn't help myself.

there may have been the threat of a Bob Weir visit. you can never be too prepared.

maybe if you're lucky, you can touch it like my friend did

right on, thanks.

jff, just curious as to what band you were playing in. Wurster is hilarious. his facebook/twitter feed is consistently awesome.

i gotta say though that The Paradise sucks as a room when it's sold out. i suppose that is true of most any venue, but once you are in there is no moving. show was solid, though. much better than the Bruins.

the way i learned that Page was coming to Boston was via Haflin's facebook page.

not that i go to a lot of arena shows, but they are the one band that can connect w/ the audience despite the massive size.

well, not sure i'd label him as a hero, but he's certainly got a body of work and access that speaks for itself. i think the only famous photographer i've ever met was Bob Gruen...ran into him during the Stooges set at ATP a few years ago.

Jimmy Page stopped by the In Your Ear shop while he was in town getting an honorary degree. pretty awesome! i took a photo of Mudhoney in that place after I interviewed Mark and Steve last year.

a great paean to another acid-damaged compatriot. the first time i ever saw them (unfortunately, it was after Kathleen had left the band) was one of the most fucked up shows i think i'd ever seen. they really opened my eyes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pa5cRNypJsw

i love this part: http://youtu.be/9lgOo8yEIPs?t=1m46s

the buttholes were an amazing, amazing band. once they left Touch and Go it all went pear-shaped pretty quickly, but holy crap were they an inventive and mind-bending band.

yes. playoff hockey is the only sport where i'll watch games that don't involve the hometown team (well, NFL to an extent, but not to the same extent).

bummer. i kinda want to watch the Bruins game though...i've had show conflicts now for the last 3 games.

yeah that vid is really terrific. let's see more i was so happy when they busted out that Pavement tune. i might have done a little dance in the photo pit. i voted to get "Gold Soundz" as one of the covers and enlisted friends, but was certainly not disappointed w/ "Cut Your Hair."

Kinda pissed I am missing the third straight Bruins game though. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Television.

U like "U Got The Look"? terrible. for people who don't like Metallica, do you like other thrash metal bands, or just dislike the genre?

this song is so awesome. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESFH1gNsARw some of the production on those 80s records is gawdawful.

Black Flag. some small part of me actually thinks Sonic Youth has a chance.
