Naaaah. Usually when that comes on, I just hit the backwards arrow button and listen to track #10 again
I only wonder why "When the Well Runs Dry" wasn't on ABAAC!? C'mon now!

Damn straight, Iowan! Best playoffs ever. Very interesting matchups. I can't stand the Rangers or the Caps, but I'd rather see the Caps take them down big time. Me, being all about Philly am pulling for them to kick Crosby's ass. Should be a heck of a series. Out in the west, I really want to see ho...

I don't care for either of these songs, although I have heard a couple of acoustic versions of Daylight that work to some degree. I'll leave it to others why these didn't work, I just know they didn't. Hurt my appreciation of ABAAC for a long time, then I realized some of my very favorite tracks we...

Good. Let's see if they both can keep going in that direction.

Yes, there was a pretty decent write-up, just like the Philadelphia Inquirer. The word is out. (well, it's been out, but you guys know what I mean)

Damn that turned out to be a great Masters, as usual. That shot Bubba hit on the 2nd playoff hole was unreal. Possibly topples Phils shot or Sergio's at the PGA Championship in 99 at Medinah. Bubba! Yeah, Bubba was great. Phil, on the other hand: the triple bogies hurt him big time. Tiger: oh boy.

Hope everyone is having a great Sunday with good weather and a very happy Easter. The Masters final round today. I have been finding that the older I get, the more I appreciate the Masters every year. Cheering Phil on for that 4th green jacket. Go Phil!

Picked up a copy of the new Alabama Shakes album today. Color me impressed.

Definitely rooting for Tiger. Also rooting for Captain Manboob himself, Phil. The Masters is a great event. As I've gotten older, I've learned to appreciate it more, and I don't golf either.

That'd be the one. Except we know it 'round these parts as the 'dirt mall'. The Walmart experience pales in comparison to the 'dirt mall'. The Twilight Zone, indeed.

Does anyone know if they will make that EP available again (on disc) or is most if not all of it on the new album anyway. I was trying forever to get that in December, but it was sold out. As I mentioned a few posts back, I saw it at Target today but there's three tracks instead of four. Same cover...

I stopped by Vintage Vinyl this afternoon, the largest record store in NJ. The clerk told me they had a bunch of vinyl but sold out around noon. I have to come back on Thursday. Niiiiiiice. I love that place. Me and some friends made a trek over there a couple of years ago. I swear you can get lost...

Uh...Where's the east coast portion?

Well, it's my turn this week (thanks Clams - glad to do this!) to cover the weekly track of the week. I decided to cover a newer tune, "Used to be Cop". Along with "Cartoon Gold", this is my favorite track off of Go-Go Boots. It took me a few listens before I 'got it'. The tempo ...

I know that was meant as a joke. Its a kinda funny joke. I get it.
Still makes me want to punch somthing.

Desperado. Good background music when you are at the dentist, I like to say. Other than that - yuck.

It may have just as much to do with me having an aversion to the Eagles in general and Henley specifically. At least no one has suggested that any of the DBTs cover a song by Train.

Wow. I am really impressed with Patterson's explanation of the process of writing these two songs.

I am in complete agreement with everyone's remarks about Aftermath. I have a better appreciation of ABAAC then I did years ago when I first heard it. I originally didn't like Aftermath when I first heard it, and the same could be said with Space City. Now, Aftermath along with Space City and Gravity...
