Sometimes Wal-Mart doesn't have what I want!

"Rock" is a catch-all term for any band with a guitar. "Rock and roll" should only be reserved for an act that encompasses elements of 50s/60s rock, ie soul and the blues. The Dirtbombs are one of the few rock and roll bands around, I think.

Downhome likes movies for all the wrong reasons. He thinks because he likes indie films that it makes him special somehow.

Kid's got good childbearing hips.

Whedon fanboys, general lack of good taste in anything, etc.

Sometimes I wanna talk about movies, but the proper folder for it is one of the worst on the board.

The only thing worse than Ashlee Simpson are the people who won't shut up about her. Yes, those people are worse than Hitler.

Matt Young is like the annoying little brother that wants the older brother's approval. I don't want a little brother, either; if I did, I'd just fuck my mother and wait the nine months, ya know?

I'll peruse it next time I'm at Borders or something. Speaking of Big Star, the first two albums are terrific, but the sequencing's a bit off. #1 Record ends with this weird little squibble of a song, which feels more like an interlude than a conclusion. Radio City comes closer to getting it right, but still misses the mark; its "I'm in Love With a Girl"—a brief, spare piece that's just Chilton and a guitar—could pull off its closing position easily if it had followed some epic number (sorta like the calm after the storm), but it doesn't. Instead, it is preceded by another short, but far more forgettable track called "Morpha Too." Weird. At least Third/Sister Lovers gets it right. "Take Care" is a fantastic closer. That the album itself is overrated is another matter.

I listened to Big Star's Radio City four times today.

Wait, what's wrong with Leonard Cohen.

I totally shaved my head again. And I'm hungry, but the only thing left to eat in this place is cheese sticks. Which are good, I guess.

I still do. Quite often.

I registered an account back in December, when I got my iPod. If my ipod is plugged into my comp when I go to the iTunes music store, my name appears, showing I'm logged. So, after some looking around, I find a song (one by Joanna Newsom, for what it's worth). I enter the passcode from the Pepsi cap and click "BUY." Though I was already logged in, I was greeted with a prompt saying that I had to log in again. After doing so, I tried the above again, only to be told that the code I entered was already in use and could not be used again. I suppose if I dicked around for another five or ten minutes, I would've figured out the problem. However, as I said earlier in this thread, the hassle wasn't worth it.

His AIM away message: If you feel old now, wait another three years.

The music industry is the problem; there's nothing wrong with music itself. In fact, music is wonderful.

Jonathan Lethem's The Fortress of Solitude.

I'll explain if anyone asks, just so no one will think I am being flippant.

Stop trying to be clever. But he's right.

genuisMoment, what are the two words.

The intro to that song, "That's the Way," is good, too. There was a period a couple of years back where I played that twofer on my show every week for about a month.

Crossroads came out three years ago. Also, what about her recent albums? Are you under the impression that songs and videos for "I'm a Slave for You" (forgive me for skipping the Prince-esque spelling) and "Toxic" are for children? And don't tell me her music is being marketed towards young people, because all pop music is marketed towards young people.

The Mars Volta sucks, but man the Pfork review of the new album is just as terrible: Holy shit, this guy is just as bad as Cedric Bixler.

Save for "The Briar and the Rose," The Black Rider induces only comas.
