"Convinient" This is a cool thread, but really, it's maddening to see that there every time I look at this folder's front page.

That was actually upsetting.

The Walkmen and the Bravery aren't much alike. I don't like the Walkmen, either, save "The Rat." They should rip off the Afghan Whigs more often.

Czech is still five years behind the times when it comes to the Strokes.

See what I did there?

I'll give credit to AWK for trying something different, but this is kind of boring. Hey, he's doing a reasonable Mike Patton on "Pushing Drugs."

I always pegged CWM for the guy who thought being on the honor roll meant you were on a roll. You forgot to log into the Rondo account.

I feel you, Ben. I just hope you feel me, too.

Rando hasn't strayed from the wrestling folders in at least a couple of years, so none of the newer regulars would get this. That said, I only enjoyed the first few posts. The rest....

The friend of mine that I gave that London Calling to also has the deluxe Weezer, but he lifted it from Wal Mart. To be fair, it sounds better than the original release, which has comparatively thin sound.

Looks like I was confusing Columbia's Legacy line with Universal's Deluxe line. Christmas 2004, I got a good friend of mine that Legacy, two disc, one dvd edition of London Calling. It was pretty swank; the remastering on the proper album surpasses that of the '99 version, which I thought was tops to start.

The Legacy collection. For when you really need overpriced, double disc reissues of classic-era Moody Blues albums.

What, those 30th anniversary things? I bought the Ziggy one when it came out; the packaging is neat at first, but the pages within the book started coming loose from the spine within a couple of months. And I never listen to the second disc. The Beatles haven't been reissued to death, really. The cd versions of all their proper albums are from the same master when they were first released on compact disc in 1987. I'd say the current leader in endless reissuing is Elvis Costello: first, in the early 90s, his Columbia recordings (from 1977-1986) were rereleased on Rykodisc. Then, starting around 2000/2001, Rhino reissued those albums yet again, plus Costello's Warner Bros.-era (1989-1996) recordings. Now, I've read that Universal has the rights to all those albums and will begin reissuing them ONE MORE FUCKING TIME within the next year or two (meaning this will be the third time within 15 years that a great deal of Costello's albums have been rereleased). What's ultimately exasperating about this is that Costello has always owned the rights to his music, so this shameless plundering of his back catalogue is his own doing and not the cash-grubbing of some greedy record execs. What a fuck.

I still get a little jittery now and then when driving, and it's been two months.

Edwin posted a zip file of Close Calls With Brick Walls in some other thread here about a month ago. Get with the times, TOFFEE-FILLED KANE.

I, however, really did get into a wreck the very day that Milky story was born. I ended up okay, though.

Milky did not get into a car accident a couple of months ago and did not have one of his hands broken. It started as some off-the-cuff comment made by me, in response to someone asking why he hadn't posted here in awhile. Milky decided to play along. Anyway, everyone at the other place knew it was a gag, as did Vyce and tekcop. (Because Milky really likes those dudes and thought they deserved the truth.) But yeah, he doesn't post here anymore because he hates this place. Sorry, Sensei John Kreese.

So we're still running with that gimmick? I thought someone already in some thread here that that was a load of hooey. Which, well, it was.

Operation Shylock, but you should go with Sabbath's Theater.

That thread was from 2004, so I probably said a bunch of mean stuff to him after he made some stupid posts/threads. I had a lot of rage back then.

I saw the thread where he talks about our childhood tryst, but I didn't post in it. So, who was this guy? I don't remember him.

subby once told me that he and his brother went to a wrestling show in New York, wherein his brother—aka The Upright Man—spotted Bob Barron in the crowd and proceeded to act like a big ol' goony bird with excitement, because really, who wouldn't get a little spazzy if they ever saw Bob in person.

It was subby's real-life brother, actually.

I still have the pm's to prove subby was banders. And the aim convos, too!

Gene made it plenty clear he was gonna delete any thread pinned to this folder, other than the one he started.
