At the Paradise (in Boston).

Benefit for the ACLU with Bill Janovitz, Gravel Pit, Evan Dando, Belly, Juliana Hatfield, and Nada Surf

Wow - that should be awesome. Please report back ...

And apparently Al Kooper is going to sit in for a few songs ... !

Yes! Are you shooting or just enjoying? And it's Hitchcock's birthday too so maybe we can get the crowd to sing happy birthday.

Robyn Hitchcock

I really like the two versions of In Between. The electric rave-up version is them at their VU best.

New Feelies!

It does beg the question: what are other four?

I'm a big fan of that record.

Yup. I remember getting the cassette when I was in high school and thinking there must be lots of filler (or blank space) at the end of the tape and then it ran out (before We Bid You Goodnight came one).

Happy birthday to 2/13/70. Still remains my favorite Dark Star.

Ha! You didn't like it? The person who recommended it to me told me it was bleak but also said season 2 was the best season. I liked Linden and Holder as characters. And after season 1 I had to keep watching to learn what happened!

My wife and I just went through four seasons of The Killing - and enjoyed it. Sure looks rainy in Seattle ...

I felt the same way - except the 2004 ALCS/WS was stress and lack of sleep spread over a ten day period ...

As a New Englander, I am pretty happy with the outcome of yesterday's football game.

Nice list - but Academy Fight Song is one of my favorite songs by any band so I'd have to squeeze that in somewhere.

Jose Canseco's twitter feed - after yesterday's Hall Of Fame announcements - is pretty funny: https://twitter.com/JoseCanseco

I could have written this exact same thing - except I wold say that I love Camper and like Cracker.

What I have seen (but should be confirmed) is that Neko is in for the tour but Dan Bejar is not.
