Re: Speaking in Lyrics
Too young to die but too old to survive I’ve spent too long trying to write this song The tune is ok but the words are all wrong Maybe it’s time for a change I’ve lived a life since the day I arrived Building my dreams, grand romantic schemes Now I’m 28 but I’m still in my teens Maybe it’s time for...

Re: Just Hood & Cooley
Well, I guess we hear things differently. I agree that Patterson must be a big country fan. I am not questioning that. The two first DBT albums have a definite alt-country vibe all over them, but imo thats got more to do with the production on Pattersons songs, as I said previously. I think an arti...

Re: Just Hood & Cooley
Hood doing Tom T. Hall and Kraftwerk doing a country song are two totally different things in my opinion. OK, should probably have added smileys after that Kraftwerk comment... That was just an attempt to say that those two songs if you were to play them from the sheet with only the chords and voca...

Re: Just Hood & Cooley
- If you think of music as a linear scale with rock on one end and country on the other, most of their songs land somewhere in that sweet spot between the 2 extremes of pure rock and pure country. Occasionally, they'll release a song that's pretty far to the rock side of the scale (Lookout Mountain...

Excellent write-up. Punk was an essential part of my musical "education". I was born 5-10 years late to experience it when it happened, although I remember being slightly shocked by seeing the local punk-acts on TV when I as very young. Some of those acts continued to dominate the scene ov...

Marr scored The Big Bang. Depending on your tastes, it may be a great bad movie, or just overall terrible. But the cast alone (Sam Elliot! Autumn Reeser! Van Der Beek!) makes it a must watch. http://ia.media-imdb.com/images/M/MV5BMTgzNjI1MTQyMF5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwODgyNDk3NA@@._V1._SY317_.jpg I didn't...

If there hasn't been an announcement yet there is probably a reason for not doing so.
