Pearl Jam postponed the spring tour this morning due to some kind of flu or virus or something.

I pulled 2nd draft position in my fantasy league. Ill end up with Trout, Acuna or Yelich. I tried to make a case for Betts and or Bellinger being in that tier but I just don't think they are there. I want to think Acuna can match what he did last year but those are really lofty expectations. Regardless I am getting a great player. Fantasy talk says Yelich will be stealing less due to the knee injury.

I was 14 and 15 when Definitely Maybe and Morning Glory came out and smoking a prolific amount of pot....needless to say I loved and still love those two albums and they hold a special place in the timeline of my youth. I think they have held up just fine. Great story...they were from Manchester and wanted to be the Beatles and did a really good job of sounding like them for a few albums. They sold a shit ton of albums. I'm still a fan.

This is it...its the Reds year. I feel bad for anyone who stands in their way. 3-1 odds to win the central yet somehow picked to finish third. 14-1 to win the NL. 30-1 to win the Series. Best odds we've had in quite a while. I will trade my first born for a Reds World Series

I got two pretty nice seats in Nashville. Only show I went after due to a vacation the next week we already had planned. I am in the fan club...pretty much only way to but tickets to a PJ show anymore. Their ticket situation is a mess but I feel like they are doing the best they can. People get frustrated but you can't be mad at the band for being able to sell out multiple arenas in a matter of minutes. There will be a "2nd leg"...I would recommend if you want to score seats for three figures or less you drop the $20 on the membership. If you play your card right and request best available you

This was on the tv as I laid in bed because my wife likes "to see what everyone is wearing". I watched pretty much the entire broadcast. I thought almost the entire three hours was more awkward and poorly performed than my already low expectations. The Prince tribute was pretty well done and while I've heard of Tyler the Creator I had no idea what he sounded like and although its not exactly my cup of tea I thought his performance was really creative and captivating. First time hearing Demi Lovato sing and I thought her voice was impressive. Besides that the Aerosmith performance was sad, lik

If you'd have told me 20 years ago this Same Old Song and Dance would still be together n in 2020 I'd have told you Dream On, you're Crazy. These Dudes have been Living on the Edge of demise since the mid 80's. I'll show myself out. #dadjokes

I have said it before on here that its the best live show(s) I've ever seen. The energy is tangible. I was not a Lightning Bolt fan but respect it now more than I did when it came out. I am excited for the new album but prepared to be underwhelmed. That being said I put in for Nashville tickets via fan club and plan to see them at least one more time in 2020 after that.Curious to see how this Ticketmaster Verified Fan system works out. Seems like whatever bands do the bots always win!

Got an email from Ten Club today and a Nugs one year membership is $20 for Ten Club members. No brainer for Pearl Jam and Wilco fans.

Schitt's Creek. Hilarious...great characters.

Let us not forgot John's jumping spread leg bass kick during "I Got You".

By my most likely inaccurate math this was my 19th Wilco show, quite a feat in some circles but on this board it probably falls into the less than pedestrian level of fandom. That being said its amazing how I can walk away and still be surprised how tight and proficient this band is. Glenn really steals the show on a lot of this setlist. His kit is now starting to resemble some kind of mad scientists torture device. There are pedals serving homemade "attachments" that are like five feet away. I think the band genuinely appreciated that crowd last night. They almost seemed surprised, there were

From what I can see from the link it is most likely a whitewashed birch plywood maybe laid over a manufactured wood core. If you are wanting to maintain the whitewash look you are pretty limited. I would guess wax might be your best bet for protecting that without changing the appearance. Any kind of stain or polish is almost definitely going to change the look so be prepared for that. You might be able to lightly sand(hand with paper) a sample spot on the bottom and try a product or two and see what your results are. I'm not a huge fan of waxing. We had a butcher block counter section that

Got my hard copy today. In perfect condition and also came with a pencil and a $10 off at the merch table coupon. Both very pleasant surprises but the coupon to the merch table I think is a very, very cool gesture. I buy a poster for each Wilco show and I have tickets to two shows in November so I thought that was a very thoughtful and clever idea.

Been through it twice. I think its a pleasant album, I also think its pretty much a Tweedy record with a souped up band but I think that is what Wilco is right now so its all good. I think this album will translate well to live shows. I can't exactly place it but personally I think tempo is what I am pining for on these last couple of albums but its not the early 2000's and thats not where the band is.I am off today, working in the yard with a new Wilco album in my ear all day. I am grateful my favorite band still putting out albums!

Whispering Beard Folk Festival. They have made the leap. After over a decade at a campground with music seen and heard from your tent and BYOB they are now smack dab in the middle of downtown Cincinnati. Great vibes, more like a reunion than a festival.

John Lennon and George Harrison....probably won't ever happen though.

This. No roadcase show touches KT in my opinion. Quality sound and editing. The setlist and tempo are second to none. It's my favorite album of all time by anyone.

Pearl Jam's non-studio track catalog to me is the best, or at least most fun. Not technically all B-sides but its pretty massive. (thread derailed)^

Dave Grohl's thing at the end of Monkeywrench is pretty epic.

Son Volt and Isbell. Tweedy and Jay 4 days apart. I’m calling it the “Closest I’ll Ever Get To Seeing Uncle Tupelo Tour”.

I want to echo this! I go t to meet bbop at the Cincinnati show Wednesday night and as it turns out I was sitting a row in front of him. I have been reading and appreciating his reviews for years. I always assumed he was a guitar tech or someone working for the band as the only way to explain the logistics of being at these shows. I really enjoyed looking over my shoulder after one of Jeff's trademark deadpan "zingers", dad jokes or backhanded compliments to see bbop vigorously jotting notes and grinning. I kinda felt like I got to look behind the curtain for an evening. Thanks to bbop for pr

Very cool to see this link on VC. This store is about a half hour from me. I've been there a couple times but don't frequent. Guy that owns it is sharp and realistic. I talked to him for about 20 minutes one day. They have a great stock on hand but he also embraces competitive online pricing and I think has garnered a loyal customer base that would love to pay him $4 more than they do Amazon. He also has a label called Colemine Records that offers a pretty awesome collection of quality artists you've likely never heard of. I swear I'm not getting paid for this! I didn't venture out into the m

What instigated the post was the Brandi Carlile video someone posted last week. Several months ago I heard she was $120K...that blew my mind. But now judging from that Grammy's video it looks like a good deal!
