hasn't yr copy of _Alien Lanes_ come in the mail yet?

yes, it's very ambiguous if you think that 'did the most' means the same thing as 'had the most impact,' esp when using the term 'prolific' as a descriptor.

they could do it like the Melvins (for Houdini) or Thurston Moore (for Psychic Hearts) did, and play the songs in a different order

the Pollard content helps it rise above the stupid level.

or my impression now, blimps go 90, quality of armor, choking tara, do the earth, club molluska, time machines, etc. pollard has written so many good songs

laptop, luckily. that 'captcha' had more typing than i'd planned though.

no freaking way. not even close! it's kinda sad that Pollard is mired in obscurity...i know that Hardwood Floor has done his best to proselytize. the other prolific artists from the decade that come to mind are: James Ferraro matt valentine and erika elder (aka mv+ee) jandek sun city girls

the contest is cool, though. i spent most of last night devising my entry for the 'creative tracklisting' part of the contest.

i just checked and there was an orchestra right single left (row QQ)

i had to sneakily buy tickets while in my boss's staff meeting...thank god for wireless networks

i didn't notice that...kinda lame but clearly the consumer is in no position to complain... i got row R center section. not bad, about 15 rows back. i tried boston first...i wonder what seats i could have had if i'd tried concord first.

i think the demand is high...Wilco hasn't played a proper Boston date (ie, in the city) in a while. wasn't the last one outside @ the Bank of America Pavilion in '06?

i had no luck w/ boston either. got two tickets for concord.

that's a problem. if you like creative songwriting, you should be familiar w/ at least some of his stuff.

anyone? Bueller? i've not done the presale before either...what are the mechanics of how it's supposed to work?

that could be my plan.

they should do a tour w/ Mudhoney, TAD, Melvins and Screaming Trees.

Mudhoney and the Melvins are better bands.

dave matthews gives me virulent gonorrhea. that vid was ace.

aside from Skeletonwitch, did you check out any other bands who were playing inside? Converge was crazy, Trash Talk was fun, i dug the intricate riffing of Krallice, and 1349 were cool. the small stage upstairs (purgatory?) was always too jammed, but i did see Harvey Milk for a song or two.

since i saw over 220 band sets this year (the most this year was Mastodon, w/ 3) it's hard to trim the list down...here's a top 20, with no particular order other than the top 5, w/ some honorable mentions tossed in. 1 - Mark Burgess @ Hennessey's incredible show, coming together most improbably. mark pressed local band curtain society into service as his backing band and played a ton of old chameleon songs, along with a couple of covers. to make the evening even more improbably, marty willson-piper of the church drove up from NYC and took the stage to join in for 'splitting in two.' amazi

wow! two fantastic choices.

PopTodd, thank you!
