I've seen where Monsters of Folk, The National and Band of Horses will be on this season as well.

Most definitely "Decoration Day" by Drive By Truckers. A song about two feuding families knocking each other off. It’s Decoration Day. And I’ve a mind to roll a stone on his grave. But what would he say. “Keeping me down, boy, won’t keep me away”. It’s Decoration Day. And I knew the Hill Boys would put us away, but my Daddy wasn’t afraid. He said “We’ll fight till the last Lawson’s last living day” I never knew how it all got started a problem with Holland before we were born and I don’t know the name of that boy we tied down and beat till he just couldn’t walk anymore. But I know

New song!!! This really bodes well for the new album. I'm one that really didn't like the middle of Evil Urges either.

All this arguing between The National and Arcade Fire will prove to be pointless when a certain album comes out in October and kicks both of their asses for album of the year!! http://www.billboard.com/news/kings-of-leon-announce-new-album-come-around-1004107585.story#/news/kings-of-leon-announce-new-album-come-around-1004107585.story I can't wait for the marketing push on this one. Just love their drinking stories in every interview and award acceptance they do. You would think they were underagers that had never drank before. Do you think they stack their empty cups under the full

I won't hear Suburbs until next Tuesday, but I totally understand your feelings. I felt the same way about Fleet Foxes when both critics and fans went nuts. I liked it okay, but didn't understand the overflowing praise. I feel the same thing getting ready to happen with Mumford and Sons as they get more popular (from a fan standpoint, not critic). That being said, I can't wait to hear The Suburbs, as AF has only grown on me over time.

I know there are some Liam Finn fans on here so I thought I'd post this announcement that came through email today. Seeing his opening set for Wilco in Iowa City last year was definitely one of the highlights of my concert-going history. http://www.reverbnation.com/c./fr5/artist_51491?eid=4708925_20367527&fid=20367527&fsc=e0c75581045 The mutant love child of southern hemisphere it-kids Liam Finn, Lawrence Arabia, Eliza-Jane Barnes, Connan Mockasin and Seamus Ebbs, BARB is what happens when five passionately creative friends lock themselves in a world-class studio for a month with

Definitely "Star Spangled Banner" from Woodstock by Hendrix. "Freedom" by Hendrix as well. I love me some Explosions in the Sky, specifically the album "The Earth is not a Cold Dead Place" during fireworks shows.

My wife is sick of me saying "wow, what a great show" after every episode. The last few have been very moving. Billy Riggins has been cracking me up lately. First, when he was threatening the funeral director and this week when he was reliving the glory days. He captures that character so well. Also loved the pacing of the final scene last night when Tim Riggins told the girl to "shut up" and then calmly swigged his beer in silence. So many heartfelt scenes, especially with the Taylor family, and always great music. Someday I must own all of these DVD's.

Cool story. I'd say if she bails again, it's...

My wife and I have a deal where we like to take weekend trips to local cities in the midwest. We base it around a concert I want to see and then she gets to shop the rest of the weekend. It's not that she hates the bands I want to see, she's just usually indifferent. However, she is a pretty big Arcade Fire fan and I'm using this to try to talk her into an anniversary trip to Chicago with a Sunday at Lolla to see Arcade Fire. Supposedly The National, Frightened Rabbit, Mumford and Sons, Antlers and Soundgarden are on the same day.

I'd have to add the lead singer of Wilderness to this list.

Does your wife actually like Arcade Fire, or is this like Homer Simpson buying Marge a bowling ball with "Homer" on it for Marge's birthday?

This list is more about vibe and rhythms than it is lyrics. Hope this gives you some ideas.

I put together a good playlist for a cruise to the Bahamas last summer. I don't have my ipod on me, but I'll try to report back later. For now, here are a few I remember: Goin' To Acapulco - Jim James and Calexico (I'm Not There Soundtrack) Off The Record - MMJ Phone Went West - MMJ Island In The Sun - Weezer Islands on the Coast - Band of Horses Goin' Home - Dan Auerbach Lovesong of the Buzzard - Iron and Wine

I was just fine with the finale. What they have accomplished with this show over six years and 121 hours is staggering. People get emotionally invested and want it to end their way, but you have to respect the degree of difficulty here. With, the depth of the characters that has been developed and the many layers of the story, what they have done is next to impossible.

If you want to know the surprise, look here and decide for yourself whether it's worth purchasing. It's 7.99 at Best Buy this week. I know it's not indie, but hard to pass up at that price.

Anyone get the physical cd yet? What a cool surprise!! In the thousands of discs I've handled in my life I have never seen this done before.

CCR - Who'll Stop the Rain Zep - When the Levee Breaks SRV - Texas Flood

Only on my second time through, but I think "Runaway" is my new "Start a War", beautiful.

The problem here is that the babies are defenseless to make that choice for themselves......oh wait, that's an argument to another topic.

About symbolism in last night's episode.

Make sure you also check out Dan Auerbach's solo album, "Keep It Hid", one of my absolute favorites of 2009. The song "Real Desire" rips my guts out every time. I'm holding off on "Brothers" until it comes out on the 18th, but reading all this stuff is killing me.

Super excited about this one. I've read it is more along the lines of the Auerbach solo album, which was one of my favorites of 2010. Auerbach might be my favorite right now, so much soul. I am also glad that they are trying new things in the studio, things were getting a little stale by the time Magic Potion came out. However, I think their preference is still to keep it stripped down and raw for the live show. Here is some info posted on another forum that is from an interview with Mark Neill, a guy involved with the recording. I dare you to read this and not get even more pumped for t

How much are ticket prices these days? Other than Lolla, I haven't seen them since the Riot Act tour.
