http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/22/us/politics/22palin.html Sometimes, I'm scared by the fact that I live in a country where people associate common sense with Sarah Palin. Some of the quotes in this article just scare me. You may like Sarah Palin, but those horribly vague reasons mentioned above do not stand. Am I just horribly wrong or do I actually not know any of my neighbors? Are some of these people actually,... dumb?

Did Masahiro Sakurai work on this soundtrack? I'm personally a fan of Mario Galaxy's stunningly and beautifully orchestrated soundtrack, but that's another topic, and not the work of Sakurai.

And I didn't even have to go to 4chan today. Wow.

The Fiery Furnaces - Take Me Round Again [EP] It's the album where the Friedbergers cover themselves. It's on Thrill Jockey right now. EDIT/UPDATED:

Are you referring to the supposedly rigged votes that Just A Kid received which Jeff acknowledged?

via NYT through Metafilter What a horrible turn.

I hear they're playing Red Mosquito on an almost daily basis again, and All Those Yesterdays is finally in set lists, and not acoustic!

I know, that's why that icon is rapidly blinking its eyes. The Ashes Of American Flags and Bull Black Nova comment does not refer to the quote.

Ashes Of American Flags has always been excellent and Bull Black Nova sounds awesome live, especially if you can actually feel the tug between Pat and Nels.

That cover is pretty neat.

I don't know if I've professed enough love for this song,... Sunken Treasure (non-harmonica version). I love a harmonica, but that is not the arrangement for self-doubt and self-loathing, and possibly redemption.

I was partly thinking of what your girlfriend said and thinking aloud what she was thinking, haha. I was one row behind and one seat to your left.

So you were the guy trying to talk to Liam Finn and requesting Cinnamon Girl.

Ba, ba da, ba ba ba ba, ba bra, ba ba ba ba...

Have you been watching season 5? The answer to that question is also the answer to "what the hell is Ilana carrying around in that giant rectangular crate?"

Yes, Wilco should always play uptempo positive mood songs, until the end. No more Via Chicago, Misunderstood, and She's A Jar please.

I had second row seats, and Cryptique is sort of on the spot: I didn't feel much of the energy from the crowd. Many of the first row attendees didn't know what to do at a Wilco show, except a few. Jeff made a note of this after Jesus, Etc. when he said that some in the front didn't know the lyrics and wouldn't make eye contact with him, hahaha. I was also pretty disappointed by the lack of Summerteeth. We have more A.M. tunes (2) than Summerteeth tunes (0)! If you kicked out The Late Greats and Hate It Here from the encore and replaced them with other songs, you'd probably have energy &g

Now I'm in the attic...

Since when did we ever give merit to some Stereogum lurker ranting? Was (s)he saying something?

Finally received my copy! Now to make five hours of time for Coltrane. Thanks!
