Giants still hanging tough, scrappin' along and playing decent ball. Something is wrong with Lincecum, 5 or 6 bad starts in a row, but Cain has come on. Posey finally brought up and he's been a hitting machine from his first AB. Not sure if they'll have enough for LA and CO over the long haul, but t...

SSIA. I've got an mp3 and the vinyl, though I can't play the vinyl. So I'm looking for a lossless version, FLAC or SHN, because I'm weird like that. Anybody able to help a brothah out?

Alfred Hitchcock was way ahead of his time. In this rare sound test recording for Hitchcock's 1929 film "Blackmail" he makes the first ever known recording of the joke "that's what she said." Well, his joke is actually the "as the girl said" version, but the joke has ev...

heading up to Bend, OR within the hour and since I can't post later, I'll be enjoying all of these local microbreweries at the source: Deschutes, Bend Brewing, McMennamins (staying at their hotel), Silver Moon, and Cascade Lakes. Seeing Band of Horses/She & Him/Dawes tomorrow. Hope everyone has ...

you gotta laugh to keep from cryin'. It's a cruel motherfuckin' world in which you can get awfully rich for being treated like a joke.

I guess so.... RIP Gary Coleman. Seems like those Drummond kids were cursed

true, but a lot of the songs on that album were pretty solid live. Hell, Go to Heaven was pretty poor overall as well

glad it works for you

I found Shakey to be a major disappointment. McDonough gets unprecedented access to Neil but ends up with a book that at times reads more about him than it does Neil. It's not horrible, but it is a major letdown. That was a one-shot deal and it was blown

word from a solid source says that by the time Neil gets around to playing out west (assuming he does at all, not counting Bridge) he won't be solo. My source didn't know what this meant, but he is reliable, so who the fuck knows? Neil works in mysterious ways http://i.telegraph.co.uk/telegraph/mult...

I bet Johnny Cash is still ashamed of some of those quasi-patriotic pieces-of-crap he released in the early 80s, AKA the nadir of an otherwise stellar career

dime in the gutter wrote:twisting off cortez's trifectas thread.....great bands releasing crap.

neil young/trans

I like Trans better than Everybody's Rockin', though that's not saying much. And the version of Old Ways they released is pretty heinous (though at least one of the unreleased versions is pretty good)
