Agreed.

Stop Making Sense is really good too.  As is Morrissey, Live in Dallas.

I'm just saying.

I've been pretending I'm a lot older than I am, all listening to Over The Edge by The Wipers, Zen Arcade by Husker Du, and Jettison by Naked Raygun.

Oh and The Meadowlands by The Wrens, because that's something I do a lot of regardless of how old I'm feeling.

Without a doubt the most fantastic concert movie ever. Seriously people, watch this. You will be skipping after watching this film.

wow, I hated Stop Making Sense so much. it really upset me to watch it. I couldn't stand it.
dang.

Emmoh-- Yay to your music.

a while ago, I was at a concert where an awesome local band opened for The Wrens. I asked my then-girlfriend if she wanted to stay to see them, and she replied "no, they suck."

I assumed they were just some shitty local band. Damn.

This is important. This means that she's gone and I don't have to insist that you get rid of her.

In fairness, if you listen to the Wrens once, they don't exactly sink their "talons" into you, after a few listens, though, you suddenly realize they're basically the best band ever...or at least out of New Jersey...right now...






Also, I just realized that I was mixing up Stop Making Sense (which I have never seen) and True Stories (which I have), and am no longer thoroughly confused as to what everyone was talking about.

Paul: Clutch's Apostle.

I have indeed Paul. They are an intriguing group, although I haven't listened to them lately. I did hear 'Burning Beard' though, and liked it.

oh goodness, do any of you people like Slint?
because Spiderland is ruling my ass. This album is part of the reason I got such a good impression from Wash U-- I went into a record store. I realized I only had 10 $. I looked at two albums-- a neutral milk hotel album, and Spiderland. I finally chose spiderland. I walked outside, and a girl busking right outside the store was playing "in the aeroplane over the sea".

I know that is a stupid reason to like a college, but that stuck with me. that isn't the main reason, or even one of the major reasons...but it's a good story to tell.

also, my english teacher's highschool friend owns the record store. (I forget the name of it. it's the really cool and awesome one on the Loop, for any of you St. Louis-ians.

Anyway. Slint-- love 'em or hate 'em?

Love 'em.  So does Bozack, if I recall correctly.  Where is he?

Anyway, they rock live, too.

Don't know of 'em.  But I like your story.

Also, "In the Aeroplane over the Sea" is a wonderful song.

I gotta explore this band really soon.  I had never heard of Slint until David Pajo hooked up with Billy Corgan in Zwan.  All the press I read was ridiculously high praise.  After hearing Zwan I was left scratching my head.  Then later I got Joya which has Pajo on it and that album is basically like treasure.  About the same time I got a mixdisc (thank you Bozack) which had Papa M on it.  Again, treasure.  So what the fuck am I waiting on.  Damn, gotta head back to Amazon.com.  So is Spiderland the one to get I take it?

Update re: "Fox Confessor Brings the Flood":

I have started listening to it, and now I can't stop.

Neko Case's voice is remarkable. I think I've said as much before, but it still stands!
