I'm originally from Pennsyltucky. I'm glad I don't live there any more.

im glad you found a place where your kind is accepted.

Jimmy Buffet is profoundly terrible.

So true that I'm surprised it isn't hidden in bible code somewhere.

I think I officially can't handle Robert Plant ever again thanks to this damn thing.

I don't know if I ever thought before, "would Led Zeppelin be better without Robert Plant?"
The answer is maybe, when listening to all the songs that sound like this, in terms of "I'm singing so Bluesy!"

[Turbo Ninja]

They're from Minneapolis.  We still fuck*ng RULE the alt-rock and indie world after 25 years.  Owl City, Solid Gold, Jeremy Messersmith, Haley Bonar, Bon Iver, Har Mar Superstar, Atmosphere, it's all good.

I am sorry that I had to revoke a tiny can for your inclusion of Owl City in the list of acts that "rule the alt-rock and indie world," but I'm afraid it's the only way you'll learn.

"Would Led Zeppelin be better without Robert Plant?"

The question as far as I'm concerned is "Would Led Zeppelin have been good without Robert Plant?" And my answer would be "Probably." Page walks a pretty thin line, but I think they'd be OK. Anyway, it's all academic. Plant took what would probably have been a good if not great band and turned them into something that I will forever loathe.

I noticed right away I'd been decanned...at least I know why now. (no I don't; what was wrong with including OwlCity??) (pleeeze don't take away another can)

I knew you seemed alright.

Sorry if you feel sad due to punishment.  Maybe you could get a thousand hugs from ten thousand lightning bugs to cheer you up. 

Or maybe a pretty sparkly pony, catching dreams on a rainbow lollipop, could give you a butterfly kiss and a handmade coupon for maximum cuddles.

I hate that particular Owl City song the most because I think it's a pandering caricature of twee electropop.  The can was removed because Har Mar, Bon Iver, Atmosphere et al. are deserving examples of Mpls' stature as a ROCK CITY.  Including Owl City in that list is like including Rachael Ray on a list of great TV chefs with Bourdain, Ramsey and Colicchio.  One of these things is not like the other.

[AugustWest]

great TV chefs with Bourdain,

This is a sort of a tangent, but is Bourdain really a TV chef?  I mean, he's clearly a chef who is on TV, but he has a travel show, not a cooking show.

Which reminds me that I need to get caught up on this season's shows.

That could be said of all three. I like them and everything (though I've never seen evidence that Colicchio can so much as fry an egg), but I have to assume that Alton Brown could cook them all under the table. The man is a scientist.

Where do you live?  (I ask only because I'm coming to your house to get my can back.)  (Or the handmade coupon for maximum cuddles, whichever you give me first.)  (Goddamn it.)

True, now that you mention it...

I have to assume that Alton Brown could cook them all under the table. The man is a scientist.

I don't know.  I love Alton a whole lot and he has influenced my cooking more than anybody other than my mother and grandmother, but he's never been a professional chef.  Didn't he go to cooking school just so he could make Good Eats?
