That's exactly the same setup I have.

Strange. Mine runs really fast, something that it didn't do when I housed everything on my internal HD.

It's not as safe, you're right, but it sure is a lot faster! And if one drive goes bad, I have the backup drive until I can get another 1TB drive for 100 bucks. Actually, I'm going to partition the second drive to also make a bootable backup of my entire system in case my internal hard drive crashes. Of course I've been saying this for a year now. I'm another one who preaches regular backups but rarely does them myself, which is why I also lost 3/4 of my music collection and all my personal photos 4 years ago.

I changed the setting for the folder iTunes reads from to be a folder on the external drive. I think it's in the Preferences menu. You can redirect iTunes to look for the folder somewhere besides its default location. I did this because I have a 250GB internal hard drive and about 230 GB of music files. ITunes bogged down the rest of my system so much that it wasn't good for anything except a music player. Once I moved all of the music to the external drive and freed up all that space the computer is screaming fast again. I'm actually going to buy a second 1 TB drive to back up my ba

You can get a 1TB USB drive for $100. I bought one to transfer all of my iTunes files to, hoping that it wouldn't be too slow. It works seamlessly. No lag time at all. Fantom 1TB drive

Oh, wow, nice score!

Nice! Haven't been since Wilco. I think we'll be attending this year.

It's a regular love fest for Jason in these parts. I have been told I should be his agent based on the amount of people I've turned into Isbell fans.

That is a fantastic song. Have you ever heard the 7" version? It's even better, IMO.

Ashes DVD SY/Beck 7" MMJ 2X10" Flaming Lips/Black Keys 7" Jenny Lewis 7" Decemberists 7" Free RSD Sampler LP A ton of junk: flyers, CD comps, stickers and zines the store was dying to get rid of. So they filled up everyone's bag with their trash, essentially and bought "New Brunswick, New Jersey, Goodbye", a book about the NB hardcore scene. Maybe the biggest niche market book ever. But a band I'm friends with seems to be in every other photo, so I needed to have a copy. My husband got the Booker T. 7" and all three Sharon Jones LPs.

I went in winter too...I think it was 4 years ago. It was a totally unique experience, and I'd do it again in a second if it didn't cost so damn much money. Woodstock is wonderful. I would live there if it weren't so far away from everything.

You're right, not sure why I said soul. Probably because I wasn't paying attention to myself.

Oh yeah, Little Sammy Davis! That guy's a character! When I was there he had the Conan guy too, as well as an awesome female black soul singer. I think her name was Alexis P. Suter. Something like that. And Amy and her band Ollabelle played too. They were part of Levon's ensemble as well.

This is true, but he has gradually been getting stronger, not weaker. He really needed to retrain his vocal cords and his lungs after he beat the cancer. And hey, I just saw Ted Neely in a production of Jesus Christ Superstar a couple weeks ago....he's 66 and hit every rock opera note that he hit in the movie version 35 years ago!!

"I Remember"?

The first time I saw him was an early Ramble and he didn't/couldn't sing at all. The second time he sang a couple songs and let his band do the rest. The last one was about 6 months ago, and he was going strong until close to the end of the night when his voice just lost its strength. I think they take this into account when they plan the setlists though. Larry Campbell, and his daughter Amy share a good deal of the singing duties. It's more like an ensemble than anything.

Has anyone compared the hieroglyphs on the classroom blackboard with the ones that showed up on the countdown clock in the hatch?

Damn, the freaking Star Wars references were killer.

Get "Wrong-Eyed Jesus". Now. Right now.

Thanks so much, Jen!

I thought I heard it before but I would never have remembered where from. Maybe that's why I don't like the guy.

Seems like Mike D maybe didn't like him too much either.

Says you. I never could stand that guy.
