Nothing. 5 minutes before the show of them driving to the venue. That's it.

Most of my favorite songwriters describe their writing process in that way, or something similar, Bob and Neil being the earliest examples. ...but if Bobby D or Neil Y says this it gets taken at face value, whereas when JF described SV as a "vehicle" he caught holy hell from his own fans [some, any...

i heard it's 'mindblowingly' good. i'm trying to see it this weekend. It's not THAT good. It's a beautifully shot concert film...But that's it...And it's a concert of an album I couldn't really get into. Does anyone else think PRAIRIE WIND was overrated? I have every album Neil has ever done, but t...

Awwww... Shooter's ok. I dig that single he had "4th of July". I bought his album on vinyl for $2. It was worth it. I was, however, put off that he would adopt not only the flying "W" of his dad on the record, but use the font from HONKY TONK HEROES as his album font AND do a cover of ARE YOU READY ...

They're aound $110-120, but they are belt drive. chris Why's that bad? Almost all high end turntables are belt drive. They are said to be more consistant and true to the sound (ie: magnetic drives create a rumble in their motor that the stylus can pick up and put out through your speakers). The onl...

I wish someone would put ANODYNE out on vinyl. Every UT album was released on vinyl except that one.

Hello? Sundazed? Are you listening?

Howdy and Man Made are rated just fine the way they are, if you ask me. HOWDY has half good songs, half filler, and Man Made is super-uninspired and is maybe a quarter strong.

Love the boys, but the last two records don't come close to what came before.

[ If you see them live, you will go home wanting either practice your guitar 12 hours a day, or smash it in nihilistic contempt for the talent that Doug, and Doug alone, posseses. It's funny. I've been a fan since THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH LOVE (still my favorite). Have every album they've put out...

My only dissappointment with seeing Dj live was that they only played songs from Bug and before... I think they've started throwing THE WAGON in there, too... Dino's great live, though I find all the hooplah surrounding the reunion a little bizzare...You could go see J MASCIS AND THE FOG over the l...

I can't believe you guys took the bait on this and actually replied to this guy.

It's a joke...Why would someone come here and say that? it's like walking into a church and asking if you can hang out, even though you hate Jesus.

Don't reply anymore...It's only makes him happy.

Sharon told me the vinyl has been cancelled. They couldn't get a vinyl master they were happy with.

I was one of the lucky few who ordered fast enough to get one. So folks don't have to spend $100 on ebay to hear these songs, I've uploaded them to my band's website. if someone in the Farrar camp is uncool with that, I'll take them down,though I can't imagine they'd prefer the fans to break the ban...

The teacher in my has to point out that he could've said that big dick or that big white dick but he didn't.
