I don't do vinyl due to financial reasons & because my hands don't work right from the arthritis so I drop stuff a real lot. CDs take that abuse better. That being said, I picked up the anniversary package of Wish on CD. It's pretty wonderful. Not the extra stuff so much but the remaster of the album is incredible. It sounds like a totally different record. So good it's moving up my list of favorite Cure records. I was in the music biz over 25 years & have seen hundreds of shows. I used to get paid to go & at my peak I was out 3 or 4 nights a week. For years the Cure were my bucket

Songs of a Lost World (might not be exact title) - The Cure Finally!

Anything but Xmas music. Well, almost anything....

For anyone interested you can pre-order the whole upcoming tour for a discount. It's too rich for me but some might enjoy it. If the Seattle show is good like the last one was I'll certainly order that later. I got a cd of the River show I saw & it's real good, still listen to it. Almost 4 hours! Hoping the upcoming tour is as good. We shall see. https://live.brucespringsteen.net/packages/2,1254/Bruce-Springsteen-The-E-Street-Band-mp3-flac-download-2023-US-Tour-Audio-Pre--Order.html?utm_source=livebruce&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20221215-livebruce-tour-audio-preorde

You're hardly impartial & if you bother to read my original post it was totally Wilco related. I wasn't battling with anyone & we actually had a good discussion going on about my original question/observation. It just irked me (& others) that the thread was arbitrarily closed for no apparent reason. So it's ok to have an opinion only if you agree with it? Doesn't seem right. It's kind of one of those who died & made you God questions (1 of my favorite lines!).

all sensitive & OCD

Haven't jumped yet......besides my friend's little grandkids I'm fine with ignoring the whole thing. Safer that way.

Why was the thread regarding the Fred & Wilco shut down? It was a reasonable discussion (BTW I never said hate about anyone. I merely quoted a humorous take from Robert Pollard of Guided by Voices that I witnessed in person) until a party (bro man) from the Head side got all sensitive & OCD. I thought I had a valid question/observation about current Wilco trends.

Now that the European tour is done I'm hoping we get an announcement in January for the North American tour. I've heard several shows from Europe & the shows are fantastic. They've been doing 5 songs from the upcoming album & they're great. Close to 3 hour shows again. They've added Perry Bamonte to the line-up on guitar & keyboards so at times it's the Lynyrd Skynyrd of goth haha. I had fears that they were going to do another nostalgia go round & I'm happy to say I was wrong. I may go to more than one show if I'm able physically & financially. I expect the tickets are goi

I've got this one in my queu. I like Aubrey Plaza.

Nice. I was supposed to see them but wasn't well when they hit town. Hopefully next time.

I liked the Terror also but I thought the book was better.

It's been renewed for another season. Hopefully they will keep the quality up. I liked it so much I ordered the book upon which the series is based on.

I've got to think on this more but I know my favorite record of the year is Particle Kid "Time Capsule". It's a bit overlong but overall it's a stunner. I saw them open for the Flaming Lips a few weeks ago & they definitely bring it live. Micah Nelson is moving up my favorite musician list fast.

surpisingly good

It would be cool if Susan sang a Christine McVie song.

Jealous!

Perhaps I didn't get it on the right thread but wanted to put it out there. I have a lot (too much) going on right now & was being lazy. Glad I pointed it out to you. I don't know why I hesitated on the series at first. Probably because it was described as a comedy by some & I'm not really into comedy right now. Also, I was a little sick of Jeremy Allen White after the trainwreck that was the end of "Shameless". Glad I saw the error of my ways!

1 of the greats. I'm glad I went & saw her on the last tour. https://consequence.net/2022/11/christine-mcvie-fleetwood-mac-dead/

Wow, episode 7 with Spiders (Kidsmoke) the soundtrack to the kitchen chaos was stunning. I hope season 2 is as good as season 1 was & they don't ruin it.

From what I read, the same team responsible for Rogue 1 was in charge of Andor. Rogue 1 is by far my favorite recent Star Wars movie even though it's kind of a WW2 movie redone. Lots of good plot twists, no happy ending (waving ghosts, teddy bear creatures etc).
