No, but i just got the new album about a week ago, and it's all that i've
been listening to lately. I didn't think they could make an album better than
"in an expression..." but this is just fucking incredible. Consequently, i
would very much like to see them live, so if anyone has any tour inf
I think that i saw the mad wookiees once a couple of years ago in memphis. I
was pretty drunk though, so i don't really remember if it was them or someone
else. I just remember the singer/guitar player beating the shit out of his
guitar with this chain at the end of the show. Good times.

Okay, I've noticed that within the past few months on this list, there have
been two major topical discussions that got people fairly passionate and
riled up...the Fetal Alcohol Syndrom thread and the Led Zepplin thread, both
of which, I noticed, were started by Amy. MY question is, Why bother?
Okay, so everyone needs to check out

No one is above sophomoric adjectives like pretentious. Not even god. I still
say that, if you want brilliance in literature, read some Renaissance to
Romantic era British people that aren't Shakespeare.

No, fuck Ulysses because i had to devote a whole semester solely to that book
as a requirement for my English minor. It's a bunch of pretentious bullshit.
Go read some Marlowe or Eliot. Hell, read some Goethe or Moliere, they're all
better than James Joyce.

So I got the new Cursive album the other day. It's so fucking amazing.
Everyone needs to own this album. I've bought so many fucking albums this
year, and this is probably second only to Fevers & Mirrors. If you like
Bright Eyes, buy Cursive's Domestica. If you don't like Bright Eyes, buy

Ok, so this is totally off-topic, but everyone needs to go see Shaft. Yeah,
the plot is thin, and it's really not that cool of a movie, but this is the
role that Samuel L. Jackson was born to play. Seriously. With the exception
of Isaac, everything out of his mout in that movie is infintismally
So, I know someone on this list mentioned that they live in Columbus, OH. I
also noticed that both Bright Eyes and Cursive are supposed to be playing at
"ColumbusFest" and was wondering if I could get some info about this.
Thanks

So, the one decent music store here finally got in the new Bright Eyes, which
is my favorite album right now. Does anyone besides me think that "The
Calendar Hung Itself" is possibly the greatest song ever? Maybe I'm just more
bitter and cynical than usual...

While this topic has already been debated to death, I feel inclined to add my
two cents to this, because moshing annoys the fuck out of me at shows. Don't
get me wrong, i love dancing, screaming along, and having a good time, but
you don't have to knock around anyone else to do this. I've hones
It's weird...when i saw modest mouse, i didn't even notice Isaac's lisp until
one of my friend's pointed it out. I used to always notice it on the albums,
especially teeth like god's shoeshine, but i guess that, after a while, i
just got so used to it that it was no longer a speech impediment.
Hopefully you're right, and I'm just overreacting. Fuck Epic anyway.

I'm totally with you on the modest mouse obsessions. I saw them a week ago,

wow..i think jon stewart summed this whole thing up pretty accurately
tonight. I'm not sure, but i think the exact words were, "the music industry
has won its crusade against poor college students and fun"
yeah, it kinda loses something when you write it down, but i thought it was
damn funny.
I got really excited one time, so i took off running. Everyone that saw me
thought I looked like a fucking idiot, which, I'm sure i did. Needless to
