yeah, it's a source of great pride and fulfillment

Bunny, no one here judges you on that basis. We judge you on your taste in music.

more likely because I am a loser

Between the "kept" and the "never heard anyone use 'ask' as a noun," you are actually quite the winner.

I can't say "never" with certainty but it's gotta be pert near close to never

A related pet peeve of mine is people not using the on-ramp to get up to speed of traffic. They try to merge onto the interstate going 55-60, when they had all the time in the world to get up to 70+. 1,000 time YES. Makes me crazy. The other thing people do when merging is COME TO A COMPLETE FUCKIN...

People who think a 4-way stop sign intersection is a bakery or a butcher shop. You're supposed to go in clockwise order…not in the order in which you got to the intersection. On a similar note, people who have the right of way at stop signs, but wave you through to be nice. It just throws off the w...

I don't think psychedelia has aged particularly well, but some of the songs are classics and hold up just fine. Most of them are posted in this thread already, though.

The American Library Association is re-issuing this 1987 poster. I remember this, and decided to order one this time around. https://bowiesattva.wordpress.com/2012/01/02/bowie-the-american-library-association-and-the-idiot/ https://i2.wp.com/sidewalkhustle.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/picture-3.png

This month blows. And not in the good way.

Rush third down on the Ted Nugent bill!

I loved this Bill Graham Presents ad:

I would assume that the band will make some, though I am not 100% sure.

That's a shame for those of us who can't afford a vinyl habit.

Will downloads be available other than with the LP?

I think the sadness people are expressing about recent losses and looking ahead to the future is not about the musicians. It's about ourselves. Every time a Levon Helm or David Bowie or (your favorite here) dies, we lose a piece of our history. I was devastated at Bowie's death. I felt virtually no...

NO WAI

You look* like such a kid



Happy happy, darling.





*and act!

4 of my favorite live bands these days. Just an amazing lineup and too good to pass up.

Will be my first trip to Dallas. Alice.

Lower your expectations. Though it is entirely possible you will meet littlemamma.

he was on the cover of their magazine recently. I mean, I heard he was.

Thanks for setting that up! It was really fun last time.


I hope dogstar remembers to pace himself this year....

As a riff on what Iowan said, he's the first of the really big time guys (with all respect to Lou Reed) to die without drugs or guns being a factor. So just for sake of clarification: are you guys saying that George Harrison isn't a big time guy on the level of Bowie and Lou Reed, or was he just ov...

from PonyGirl's beautiful tribute: Not all has resonated with me, but that doesn't matter. I've never cared. He was an artist in the truest form, ultimately creative, constantly evolving and a courageous risk taker. I think bubba and several others of you said the same thing in your own words, and I...

I don't think I can live in a universe where any album by the Smiths outranks London Calling.

Austin Lucas (possibly)

You must go see Austin. He's got Adam Faucett opening for him. It will be good. Tell him to get his butt out to San Francisco soon.

Just call it what it is: terrorism they are already being called Y'allQueda and they are waging YeeHawd, which is both 100% apropos and hilarious! No, not "terrorism" : (The labels “Y’allQueda” and “YeeHahdists” being used to describe the perpetrators of the latest Oregon fracas reflects both the v...

This is one of my favorite Jason songs. Why? Because it makes me feel something. I always saw the teenage girl as the narrator's mother, and never once, until this thread, considered that the narrator might be a woman. That's probably just because of who is singing it. I'd like to hear a woman do th...

The obvious question is "How far is Carrboro from Charlotte?"

As TC and lotus said, it's playful banter and, remember, folks, just because he's making her a drink doesn't mean she's actually drinking it. They are playing some lovely adult reindeer games. Taking it out of the context of its time could make it creepy, but no one would be that literal, right? Rig...
