  1. http://www.popeater.com/2011/01/05/lost-numbers-lottery/ Crazy stuff!
  2. Wow and I thought I went to a ton of shows this year... My top shows in no order Editors-Terminal 5 Wilco- Wellmont nights 1 and 2 Nada Surf (Performing Let Go and Weight as a Gift)-Bell House, Bowery Echo and The Bunnymen- Kenswick Theater Jonsi-Terminal 5 Arcade Fire-MSG The Charlatans UK-Maxwells LCD Soundsystem-Wellmont Foals-Music Hall of Williamsburg Jeff Tweedy-Bowery
  3. Call me crazy but Pop I feel is very underated. I love Pop..just bought on LP in fact this month. It is a fun late night driving album. It is my 3rd fav after Achtung and Unforgettable Fire...Pop has unusual songs not replicated since by U2...I kind of lost interets with U2 after that but POP really stuck with me as it was a real grower and it was also the first time I saw U2 live and something just clicked!
  4. All depends on airplay which is non existant these days....I guess that means the same one who bought Accelerate will buy this album...REM's popularity really has fallen off a cliff since 96-98 and I guess that is ok with me as long as they keep making albums and touring. Of course I wish them success but it would shock me if anyone notices the new album.
  5. Everyone..."Listen, listen to the Auctioneer"! Can't wait...if you couldn't tell by my screen name!
  6. Ahh that would make sense...in NJ now used to shop in Newbury when up in Mass..now use the.com...
  7. Love Newbury! How does the sale work...is there a code or does it automatically come of at checkout? Thanks!
  8. REM Radiohead Cure Blur/Gorillaz Charlatans UK Beck Medeski, Martin and Wood Cracker Springsteen Yay New Order! I would also give later Duran Duran a chance Astronaught and Pop Trash were good albums!
  9. Yeah I am already used to reading labels for most of my life. The thing that always upset me is I love asian food but they use alot of fish oil, sesame oil and other mysterous fish. I have to be so careful when I eat asian foods. Also every time I buy products at the asian grocery stories I have to read the long laundry list of ingrediants because there usually would be the warning made in a plant that processes fish or sesame was used. Hopefully it will make my life easier in this aspect as I can now disregard some of the ingrediant checking... The biggest challenge with the fish allergy (a
  10. So for the 3rd time in my life I went to visit an allergist. My whole life I have been "allergic" to all seafood/shellfish in addition to coconut, seasame seeds and penacilin. I was told when I was very young it could be potentially life threatening if I ever ate fish especially shellfish. With that dire warning I avoided it my whole life (now age 30). Aproximatley 5 years ago I went to an allergist and he confirmed I was allergic to all fish. We are switching insurance plans at the end of the year to a less diserable one so my wife insisted maybe I should visit the allergist once again. La
  11. Wilco outside of Manhattan is better..Wellmont and Brooklyn were both phenominal...
  12. That sounds like some brush, brush...sometimes venues don't handle these situations well and it is up to us the concert goer to self police.
  13. I am really starting to think that Jeff doesn't like NY. Short shows and lack of shows in Manhattan are a good indicator. Since 2000 Jeff has played 4 solo shows NYC. I don't get it...
  14. WOW 3 Tupelo songs in 1 show..Figures as it was the show I was not at..You guys are lucky and I am jealous! On a side note Tarrytown NY gets 17 songs VA gets 23? Wonder what was different between the 2?
  15. They had good songs but there music is way to mellow for me ala James Taylor...
  16. I doubt most venues/artist ever consider peoples transit options on if they keep playing or not.
  17. I was in row 2 right next to the One Wing wistler. He was really drunk if you couldn't tell and yelled "NICE" every 3 minutes! Highlight for me Was What's the World Got in Store which over 15 Wilco and 7 Jeff shows I never heard live! Just need Say You Miss Me and I heard all of Being There The show seemed to end abruptly after California Stars? Another thing which I enjoyed was no Spiders, Im the Man and Shot..room needs to be made for other songs. It was a good mix between Tarrytown and Bowery. The sound was outstanding at both shows! Jeff's banter is also priceless
  18. Wish he played Gun at Bowery..seen him solo 7 times and still missing out on gun live! Hopefully tonight then!
  19. Ehh I don't think so..it is still a concert. I saw Bruce Springsteen 7 times in 6 weeks back in 03 all at Giants Stadium I paid $100 total for all 7 shows. Some shows i paid as little as $5 to get in all in all it was fun but I started to get burnt out!
  20. I am in the middle of a 4 concert run...I am at concerts Thur, Fri, Sat and Monday. The older I get the less desireable it is but I am a glutton for punishment and I curse when the 6am alarm rings on those work mornings after a concert! Anyway what is the most concerts in a row you saw? My record was 8 concerts in 6 days back in 2000..I was a walking zombie by day 3 and I fell asleep at one of them I don't remember! My record for one month was 14 I think? In case you are wondering this week for me it is Walkmen Peter Hook Jeff X 2
  21. Santa's Beard-They Might Be Giants No Christmas While I am Talking-Walkmen These are the only Christmas related songs I can stand now. Reason being my office is playing non-stop christmas music from Nov 15-Dec31st with the same 20 or so songs repeating. Crazy thing is I don't work in retail I work in an office building so there is no excuse! Someone save me! Sorry to not have the spirit for holiday music!
  22. Just checked my front gate ticket status..They sent them out overnight yesterday should be here today!
