That would be me. But I'm no gentleman.

I thought the sound was good. It was a little weird to see Cooley on the right but the voice coming from the left. I noticed that Jay was back to his normal SG (the one I call his Badfinger guitar) and didn't have that unusual P90 mid 70s one he got after he got freaked out when Patterson broke his ...

Traffic downtown is heavy starting about 3:30 - 4 pm. Hits its peak around 5 - 5:30. Plan accordingly.

Ooops, meant to hit edit, not quote. User error. The reply is the edited version. Read it, not the original.

As far as parking goes, if you get downtown around 5, you can park on the street by feeding an hour's worth of quarters into the meter because it's free parking after 6pm. We have Uber here so you aren't limited to cabs. If you have a lot of coin to drop, you might find the band eating pre-show at ...

After Lexington, I decided that get togethers weren't something that people were all that into. But for those who want to, here's a primer. First of all, parking is at a premium downtown. For those arriving early by car, unless you are staying downtown, which is highly unlikely considering the cost ...

I saw that yesterday and was going to post it.

Hard to believe that this was written for Blue Oyster Cult.

This is a fun romp by Nashville artist Pujol.

No, not THAT Stewart Copeland (if you read the notes attached to the vid).

I feel like such an enabler here.

In a good way.

I was wondering what Aimee Mann's role was going to be. As much as I like Aimee (and that's A LOT), I was skeptical about how she would have fit in.

I shouldn't have worried.

Skyler and Ken doing Dream Lover from the LA Big Star tribute the other night. More to come. Shot by the writer Chris Willman. More to come. Any sound issues were present at the gig according to Chris.

Some of my favorite songs of the year. Not necessarily ranked, but not necessarily NOT ranked either. Intervention - Old 97's Everything's Gone - Lydia Loveless All I got and Gone - Cory Branan Every Precious Day - Edward O'Connell Baby It's Too Late - The Reigning Sound Late Bloomer - Jenny Lewis A...

As to the second point, I think that sometimes, learning about it after the fact can give an objectivity that can be more useful because, by removing the "in the moment" emotional aspect, it can put a better value on the parts of the whole. This is the old "sounds dated" concept...

You can't discount the "sea change" aspect of '77 - '81. Every month (sometimes every week) brought another revelation and built on the last one. This is part of the "helps to have been there" aspect. No question that's true but I think it was immediately followed by another one...

You can't discount the "sea change" aspect of '77 - '81. Every month (sometimes every week) brought another revelation and built on the last one. This is part of the "helps to have been there" aspect. There's a distance and a different objectivity when you discover something afte...

Both the Dolls and the Stooges had released their major albums and broken up before the Clash released anything. To me the mystery is why the Ramones didn't get to ride the wave created by the Clash - like Big Star among many others, the Ramones didn't become big until years later and even then it ...

On the next album, this was the lead track. Despite Sandy Perlman's attempt to turn them into Blue Oyster Cult, the energy was still there. Frankly, they still sound fresher to this day than The Ramones do on their early albums (somehow, they seem just a little sluggish than their later efforts and ...

I think it helps to have been there at the sea change. Even though the Ramones were there first, they weren't very well known in the beginning. The Clash, along with the Sex Pistols, really changed the game at the beginning. Their sound was like a hurricane and nobody had ever heard anything like it...

I have a hard time doing this. It's like explaining that it's dark at night.

For now. Not the first time.

Got my fingers crossed Tyler. It does appear to be on a continuous loop. I wonder how much longer it will be up? I can't get over how crystal clear the video is. The mix was really good as well, Cooley's vocals and Jay's guitar especially (and bass and drums were just about perfect). The last time ...

It does appear to be on a continuous loop. I wonder how much longer it will be up? As I posted in the thread for the show, according to Yahoo, it will replay for 24 hours. I believe it went live last night at 8 pm Pacific, 11 pm Eastern. Right. That's why I suggested that the mods kill this thread ...

Wish I could be there in my hometown tonight. I'll have to settle for the Ryman next month, and also play Grand Canyon on my radio show, Pop Top, this afternoon/evening and give the Memphis show a mention. If you want to listen, go here at 5pm CDT. It's a two hour show and DBT will probably be in th...

Maybe it was in honor of the Scottish vote.

Oh wait...

Meant mid-tour not in the strictest sense. But yes, it was odd, not only because of the announcement of two more shows but because there weren't that many shows left. Weird indeed. I was looking forward to seeing them at Mercy Lounge, which is a pretty small place. I'm just glad I saw them a couple ...

Yahoo is still streaming last night's show for the rest of the day here. Mods can probably kill this tomorrow.
