Forgot one..Peter Gabriel-Red Rain

Sweet have fun! I am leaving for the show in about an hour and am excited for some good Portugese food (yummm!), I will be right down the street from you...

Cure-Prayers for Rain Guster-Rainy Day From Good Homes-Rain Dance R.E.M.-I'll Take the Rain

Word!

Tickets for pavement in NYC were sold 13 months early! Same with some shows at Carnegie Hall...but in terms of pricing that is nutty at best!

yelp.com will be your friend! Brooklyn as mentioned before is more reasonable and the trains are easy to Manhattan once you get used to it. In terms of fun places to hang out I like the lower east side, koreatown, chinatown (if your adventurous!) and just walking around central park. If you have any more specific questions let me know. Make sure you catch some concerts at Bowery Ballroom! Have fun!

I love it! I'm the Man Who Loves you was a hoot!

Don't like Kraig Johnson I take it... I like those songs but the other songs are stronger..still a great cohesive album in my mind!

What songs can't you stomach?

Niiiice find! Can't wait!

Back from the trip! Minnesota is a nice state Went to 5-8 and Matt's...Matt's is the winner! Anyhoo..I spent time at Mill City (Stone Arch Bridge), Went to a Twins Game (Beautiful Stadium), Mall of America, The Capitol, Ft. Snelling, Walked along the river, Dinkytown, First Ave and more. Minneapolis is a well run city, great mass transit and friendly folks. My only complaint is the drivers seem more clueless then those in NJ and when mergining on a highway drivers slowly hover near highway on ramps instead of stepping on the gas and letting traffic flow (Alas not a major negative)!!!

I salute you..I want to cut the cable the wife doesn't. I think it is liberating. I went a whole year without tv back when I was younger..I read and played a lot of basketball! Was a good time!

My 5 bands I aim to have everything by REM Radiohead Wilco Blur The Cure To a lesser extent Springsteen I think between these 6 bands I have 2500 songs of my 15000 on my ipod!

I am a completist for about 5 bands...after that I will these days try and buy the album on vinyl if it comes with a download so I can have a copy for home listening and road listening. If I can not achieve that I will buy it on cd format first if it is under $10 (Usually week of onsale bestbuy has a good promo $8.99 or so)...if it is not I will just get it on Itunes or Amazon Music. I really am all over the place I know!

Please report back here! Very Jealous! Hopefully with the Bunkhouse Re-release they will unleash some oldies in the show! Woot!

Lucky Minnesota folks Jayhawks First Ave June 19-21!! http://www.jayhawksfanpage.com/tour.html

I'm leaving later this week and am very excited! I have booked tickets to the Twins Vs Tigers game on Monday woot! Other than that planing on visitng the Mill City Museaum,First Ave, The Capitol, Ft. Snelling etc. Also final questions Matt's or 5-8 Club if I only have time for 1 I see two vote for Matt's? Need to get the Ju(i)cy Lucy! Yay!

Ha..I get the sports rivalry..I don't follow sports anymore so I never think of the city in those terms...though I used to go to a ton of Mets games so I get it...

On a slight aside in terms of people from out of the NYC areas feelings towards the city.....I have been to New York at least 1000 times as I have lived within 25 miles of NYC for at least 25 years and have only seen (in terms of unbelivable moments) 1 car accident and 1 person get hit by a car in NYC (Albiet not too badly). I have also been all over NYC and the 5 boro's and have not seen anything that out of the ordinary. NYC is a very well run efficient machine. I don't get all the dislike for NYC or fear it creates. NYC has everything a person can need in addition to very friendly people (O

Are these evening with shows? I wonder if Hi-Rose??? had her baby and was able to make the show!

A traffic free commute! Also I love discovering a new restaurant, band or vacationing to a new destination. That always gets me in a good mood!

I don't know if I am missreading the tickets for this but are they $8 for general admission per day? I see there are two types one is $8 the other is $40?

Cronic Town is usually $15 or less on ebay for the original version so not too rare.. It was..I would have bought it for $75 or so..I asked for it and how much and it was $250 so I didn't even bother to look at it on the shelf!

Maybe I am imagining things but the new version sounds crisper than the older version?
