Jay Farrar

Stay True is the full realization of their original intent of juxtoposition of punk and country without compromizing or belittling either genre. Won't Forget is another example. Slate is quite possibly the most beatiful song ever written(with Still Be Around in the same pantheon). 15 Keys is nothin...

does neil usually make weird setlist decisions?

A really. really "out" take on this thing. It is - how do you say? - off the chain?

Is that Spencer on them creepy, phase-y synth? He knows how to play arty guitar rock on keyboards, apparently. A sensation, I tell you!

water, slowly. last night was a little harsh.

the half-millennium mark. i regret nothing.

we appreciate it, sir.

great thread! is this another topic dcarter hijacked from some other board? seriously, i was confused by the early '08 portland show, during which anders opened for jay and marc, but never actually appeared with them on stage. why was i denied Le Gob? (obviously it was a great show, but i'm confused...

crystal geyser mandarin orange fizzy water... trying to catch a nap before le big debate. 'beers sound good, but i'm pretty sure i had something along the lines of a panic attack last nite, and i'm in kind of a shaky state from escalations on the work and family front ...that prolly means that if i ...

L Train and Carnival Blues. L Train was real growth and totally new ground as a songwriter. And the little piano ditty is too cool I can't explain Carnival Blues. I just like it. does anybody else hear a full-on gbv influence on this album? i have suspected a pollard influence on jay since "voodoo ...

Bump for another Jay thread! No one must listen to or have Chant and Strum. Or at least no favorites. Hundreds of views but only 6 replies. I'd have to agree with Cal. L Train will be a Jay classic. it's weird, as soon as i knew the chant and strum track listing i immediately made an i-tunes playli...

Right Now there'ere at least three-four dogs in the hunt:

Bob Mould, District Line
Walkmen, You & Me
Make Believe, Goin' to the Bone Church
Prisonshake, Dirty Moons

(and let's not forget there's a new Cardinals coming soon...when is the Gob coming our way?)

: the folks that complain about some of the threads here have no idea. Wilco and atheism is at 30 serious pages and counting. more, DCarter! taken at face value, these topics are ludicrous. but understood in the context of yr cutting-and-pasting, i can have a lotta laughs (at the expense of Wilco f...

Probably Houdini Punches.

You?
