Hmm. I'm not sure if you are referring to the songs that were played or not. If you are referring to the setlist then I would have to disagree with you. Over the course of 2 years this tour has been changed and rearranged. Some new, unreleased songs were played. Some rarely played songs were dusted off. A lot of the songs off the new album went into the retirement home early. BUT U2 does a very nice job on this specific leg thus far to keep everything well balanced. I think every album was represented (there was a Discotheque snippet in I'll Go Crazy Tonight). And it just wasn't the hits. Yo

Enjoy! Thanks to social media.

^ Yeah, I'd agree with your theory. I know of Harmon and my dad either has or had his autographed baseball. He collected all of the 500 Club. I never saw him play being only 32, so I feel a bit fake to put something in that thread. I still obviously feel bad that he died the way that he did, but there's no real connection there for me. I probably felt a smidgen of a bit more for someone like Liz Taylor who I feel that I know through films.

I found these the other night at my Newbury Comics. I'm assuming a lot of local "indie" record stores should have these over the next month. They even had a nice poster on the front door. It's a nice cardboard glossy material. It's pretty big, so much so that some of it got clipped off. Pardon my white t-shirt (it's May). It's tough to get light here, since we haven't had any sun for well over a week. At the bottom is a pic of Jeff in The Dunk Booth, Glenn doing his exhibit, and Nels doing his. I also like the lineup and the blurbs about each act on the back. It's pretty nice and a wel

I wouldn't worry about it now. Macho Man Randy Savage sacrificed himself, so that he could elbow drop Jesus to prevent The Rapture tomorrow. Proceed as you normally would.

Savage suffered a heart attack around 10AM today on a highway in Tampa, Florida before losing control of the vehicle and crashing. It was later confirmed by Savage's brother, Lanny Poffo (also known as The Genius). According to the Florida Highway Patrol, Savage was driving a 2009 Jeep Wrangler when he "veered across a concrete median ... through oncoming traffic ... and "collided head-on with a tree." His wife Lynn was a passenger but survived with "minor injuries". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53hiHAkK6KA "Snap into a Slim Jim!!"

Yes. Season 1 ends on June 19, 2011. Season 2 comes back in April 2012.

This would either make a great obit or a nice tombstone.

Some more candidates:

The bugger is onto us. We should make it and turn it into a charitable cause.

Here is a current list of the t.v. shows that have been cancelled as of this past week and today. NBC: The Event (glad to see you go) Outsourced (actually enjoyed it toward the end) Law & Order: L.A. Perfect Couples (cancelled in early April) The Paul Reiser Show (cancelled in April after only 2 episodes aired) ABC: V (ABC really failed by only giving this a 10 episode 2nd season. Why bother?) No Ordinary Family Mr. Sunshine Off The Map Better With You Detroit 187 Brothers & Sisters FOX: The Chicago Code Lie To Me Breaking In Human Target Traffic Light Yet somehow Two &

Speaking of which, the next time we're in that in-between period where Wilco hasn't put out an album let's all band together and create a Tweedy compilation of his banter. Unless if it already exists.

I disagree a little bit. As I stated, I think the joke refers to people living in a very heavy sports town having a favorite sport (or sports team) to root for. I'm assuming you are from Chicago ( I seem to recall you root for the White Sox). Imagine the commercial set in Chicago where they argue over White Sox vs. Cubs, Blackhawks and the Bears and Bulls. It'd be like saying someone else is the best in Chicago besides Michael Jordan (as an example). It'd ultimately show the depth of talent in that city, much like this commercial tries to accomplish by mentioning Esposito over Ted Williams (wh

Well, there seems to be an in joke referring to the amount of sandwiches (4) that have capocollo. Nashua Garden menu I guess they take a long way to get to the punchline by one guy saying that capocollo is the best and so must be Phil Esposito who has it in his sandwich. Also, Larry Bird and Rico Petrocelli have capocollo in their sandwich as well which is where maybe the in joke lies. The deli guy must be a Bruins fan to say that he's the best over someone like Larry Bird. Or he's being sarcastic. See how amazing 30 seconds can be?

The Angels never spelled his name right when they signed him and his name never had an "S" on his contract and he was too nice of a guy to tell them. Then this season he reinstated the "S". Happy Ending?!

Well, as I mentioned "Almost" all of the sandwiches are named after Boston sports legends. I think the narrative in this commercial mentions naming a new sandwich after Dustin Pedroia (maybe call it The Laser Show which is what he called his string of consecutive home runs last summer) and what to put on it. The sandwich that the guy comes up with is pretty much The Papi which was named after David Ortiz. Also, the owner looks exactly like Dave Matthews with grey hair which is surprising because anything DMB related keeps me away from any place, but the sandwiches are too dod damn amazing to

I would also use that, if I taught. (speaking of which a job like yours just opened up around here, although there's more focus on the production side of things.) That was the main thing/theme running through my head when I watched that. It makes/made me wonder how Affleck's character would have found fame in that time. Would making the paper in his town be enough for him? I mean, he can't go out and buy every single paper back then. He would assume that people would know who shot Jessie James and that this would be immortalized. And if I recall correctly that's how the film portrays him in th

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgVzJzfnyrg&feature=related I never knew that this performance existed. The late Peter Allen who died from A.I.D.S. around the same time as Freddie Mercury some 20 years ago. Pretty faithful to the original in terms of sound(s). This is the guy that Hugh Jackman played on Broadway in The Boy From Oz.

Dan Gallagher doesn't think so....

I refuse to listen to any of these guys out of fear of getting Lyme Disease.

Very nice to see the band again. It makes me long for some new material which looks like it will inevitably happen at Solid Sound 1st. Just found Denton's setlist from tonight on Twitter and still no new material. A bit surprising. Oh well. Set: Handshake Drugs One Wing A Shot In The Arm Impossible Germany Jesus, Etc. Arcade Fire now and a night cap with Tina Fey on SNL. Arcade Fire's set for those of you that are fans and not the 6 people that are watching this thread and webcast : The Suburbs (kind of surprised to see this)/The Suburbs (continued) Month Of May Modern Man (another s
