Would love some insight on how many nothings they decide to throw in on any given night.

Hell Is Chrome

Everybody should take 5 minutes and listen to Moody Blues "Never Comes the Day" and imagine Wilco covering it. By everybody I actually only mean you guys and Jeff though.

This sounds fantastic. One of my favorite R.E.M. tunes. I know this was a Mills gem but did Stipe do the "ba ba ba ba baba" on the album?

I just paid $43 to see Wilco, Jacket, and Bob freakin Dylan. That's a $200 concert ticket if I've ever seen one.

I think this album is a lyrical masterpiece. I fell in love with it after about the third spin. Im a huge Dawes fan. I've seen them numerous times,once at the begining for free and once for $9 so we go way back. I believe im on record somewhere in the VC annals saying North Hills is one of the best debut albums of all time but I thought Nothing Is Wrong was a step back. I love what the guys did here.

Just get married...you'll get two!

I guess as a kid I didn't appreciate chauvinist pompous, abrasive adults. Had I known I'd turn into one things may have been different. For the record I was always kind of a Janet guy too.

When I was a kid I didn't care for John Ritter , I feel guilty about that now.

See Pet Shop Boys "West End Girls".

I've quit a couple things in my life that were not too good for me. Telling people your quitting is a mechanism. Now you have people you don't want to disappoint, it helps.

Gary doesn't look or act like a "hard drugs" guy. I'm goina go with some type of downer. Could be booze...I think that could fall under chemical dependency. Hope he cleans up though. Thats a guy who sings what comes to his mind no matter how revealing, no filter. That takes a lot of balls.

How funny, we got both of these this year as well. My third(first boy) is 6 weeks today, hence my absence. Maybe Wilco baby clothes are in more of a demand then they know. I wish I knew how to post pictures, the little dudes room is decked out in some of my favortie Wilco show posters. Most are cartoonish, 2 of them are the last 2 years benefit shows and would fit right into the hallway decor of a daycare minus the print and autograph. I have two older girls so my wife relinquished "most" creative power to me. I must be honest though, Louris and Olson seem to have his ear so far.

Anyone who's seen My Morning Jacket knows that on the way out of the show your saying "what the hell just happened in there?'(in a good way). Their live shows are notorious, zero credibility for Paste.

This was a hell of a thread.

Why on earth would an election make you think about Jeffery Tambor?

Without a doubt. I feel like I've said this around here before but my iPod is almost always on random and no matter when this song comes on its awkward and not good timing. I love the song and would say was borderline obsessed with it the first time I heard it,listening to it over and over but I almost always skip over it now. Grill out with the family, alone in the car, with buddy's in the garage, unless your abducting teenage boys and burying them alive in your crawl space this song is probably inappropriate.

Another rough day in the life of a Cincinnati sports fan. Colossal meltdown! 0-3 at home with a 2 game lead in a yard where they haven't been swept all year. Tough series for Rollen with a costly error and a K to end the series but he has been great for the Reds and the city, class act.

I've always loved some of the avatars around here. Perhaps that could be a theme someone more artistic than I could incorporate. Just a thought considering the calendar does sort of celebrate Via Chicago .

Brandon Phillips!!! Best defensive second baseman ever? It's hard to say how good Hornsby and Nap Lajoie were with the glove but I cant imagine them being better and would doubt they had the arm strength. I know in baseball when you say a current guy is "best ever" people automatically challenge it but my dad who is a 67 year old baseball fanatic and lifelong Red's fan says he's better than Morgan. He makes plays that are beyond great, they're almost impossible and always plays with a smile. Whatever the case we are very fortunate to have him in our city for the last 8 years.

$200K in greater Cincinnati puts you into pet albino cheetah/his and hers bidets with monogrammed hand towels status.

One thing I've learned being a sports fan all my life is the best place to go for information and analysis isn't ESPN or the internet, it's Vegas. Right now Obama is ahead at every sports book I've looked at, some as much as 2/1. This election is as good as over.

This Week In Baseball hands down. (ok cue the theme song)
