Jay Farrar

I sort of feel this suggestion has been posted before so I don't know who to credit (Maybe that DICKHEAD Jay's Goatee), but here's a really good one for the old schoolers:

"From whence shall we expect the approach of danger? Shall some transatlantic giant step the earth and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe and Asia could not, by force, take a drink from the Ohio River or set a track on the Blue Ridge in the trial of a thousand years. If destruction ...

Hi Dr. Zapatos, I'm glad you gave me the head's up about Lean On Pete because I read Northline the day after finishing The Motel Life. I read Northline for the first time in one marathon. Then I re-read three-quarters of it over the next few days, and man, I gotta tell you, it wore me out. Very real...

Just finishing up Steinbeck's the Red Pony. It's a nice quick read for Steinbeck. It's one of his more obscure pieces, but definitely worth checking out. Hi John, Welcome to the Jay Farrar Message Board! I'm back for now because the twins are sound asleep. Really, The Red Pony is a Steinbeck obscur...

Fairly certain Jay finished writing Trace down there in Crescent City. He slept on Alex Chilton's couch as far as we know.

On the third episode of Treme , third season, calling out around the world, here's a brand new fraud to speak: They reference Wilco's AM as some sort of benchmark... Annie references Shannon McNally's first cd, and then the SLEAZY AGENT says something about Shannon and Wilco ... You know Shannon san...

WHOOT!!! Here's a link to the Sun Kil Moon performance on Jimmy's show. Hard to believe Mark hasn't been on TV before: http://www.latenightwithjimmyfallon.com/blogs/2012/10/sun-kil-moon-plays-two-songs-with-the-roots-on-late-night/ Goes to show how independent minds think and know, Love, Grifterwith...

Apparently, Jules, a Mitt Romney-esque character who uses the family business profits to fund Tweedy house concerts and Crow Daddy Magnus, a Jiminy Cricket-esque character who believes that the day the music died was when his beloved Boss went teleprompter, are quite revered and have lots of juice....

Mr. Brent ought to cover the cost of me and Baby Doll's, not to mention a whole bunch of other fans', investment in his solo "kitchen rekkid." Dumbest Paypal I ever did come to think of it in retrospect. I could have had another couple of percent since then on forty dollars. I'm sure it is tough fin...

The Motel Life , Willy Vlautin I got to tell ya, I've been putting off reading this book for quite some time for no other reason than I was reading other things and kept putting it off. It's been on my radar for quite some time but you know how it goes ... Other books appear in the way :-) I read i...

Oh my goodness, listen to what the dimwit girl by the recorder says at the beginning of Damn Shame ... The VOLT brings the thunder in response, or just because their thunder is prospect. The band is perfect for this moment and so nuanced beyond ye old songs we have ever heard. Can't wait for the new...

Our favorite band sounds mighty fine so far. I love the hold back on the harp on The Picture and then the grand entrance of teh bobo.

About to splode some dynamite!

Love Son Volt,

"Blind But Now I See: The Biography of Music Legend Doc Watson" by Kent Gustavson, PhD ... Wonderful, maybe because I lived around there and was blind to anything in 1989 onwards. Wishful thoughts about how I could uh been. Also, Appetite for Self Destruction ... it was okay with some interesting po...

Not the folkfest, but don't forget the Amoeba one:

On top of all things Woody, check out 9:05, Will singing V.D. City and Jay blowin' harp ...

Love you,
