Yeah, but how many St. Louis Cardinal shirts has Chuck Berry sold? Loving McGwire, while being historically less significant, is more fiscally significant...damn this capitalist system!

I'm listening to Mermaid Avenue and a Woody Guthrie collection...I've been reading Woody's biography and wanted a soundtrack.

If they ever decide to hit Houston, I will definitely go see them. I dig a lot of their stuff. The new album is a bit on the lame side, but overall, Jeff has created some nice songs...nothing too deep, but who can beat pop songs about killing girlfriends, etc. Fun stuff.

Am I the only person on Earth that found their music to be boring and their lyrics to be completely lame? I don't like to spread negativity, but there were so many better bands in that era.

I agree with Brian on this one...Chuck Berry is an amazing musician. Hell, my office mate and I were listening to him last Friday. Chuck Berry is Rock n' Roll. I find the whole weird voyuerism thing to make him more human, it gives me hope that maybe I can make something as amazing, or relatively am...

Yeah, I dug it...the price was nice as well...must have been some legal issues with WB or something that made the UT and SV stuff have to come out on a separate EP.

The pop products are easier to deal with. Jazz and classical artists are too needy. They want the acoustics right, they want their instruments to sound a certain way, they need all this set up. This is impossible to pull off in the quick change techniques used at the awards shows. Changing set ups a...

Hopefully Lucinda will be a bit more sober than she was on tour with Neil Young...The Bottle Rockets deserve the break though, I hope they blow her off the stage.

Thanks to Glenwood for putting up the Albini link...For some reason I thought I read that Heidorn became a teacher, but now the printing press job seems right. As for the other stuff, I've read interviews discussing that his wife nudged him into joining Jay for Son Volt...so, whatever. I realize tha...

Not to be rude on a first post, but unless you've spent any time on tour with a band or been in a band, you make baseless claims. A) The Boquists are currently doing plenty of session work and acting as touring musicians. This is what they did before, during and now after Son Volt. Son Volt was just...
