Damn I'm looking forward to seeing him in San Fran on friday...I saw him at Slim's with Canyon, but Mark Spencer should be a totally different experience.

I voted in this election (the first election I was old enough to do so in).

I ended up driving 200 miles to swear before a judge about my voting status just so I can cast my ballot...so don't complain when I bitch, damnit.

My personal favorite is Bryter Layter, actually.

But yes, they're all good albums.

*ignores the comments about socialism* As much as I hate Bush (and god knows I hate him and everything his administration stands for more than damn near anything else) I find this to be an absolutely ridiculous idea...the idea is to protest Bush by not spending money on inaugration day, thus causing...

There's something about the clarity of CDs that really appeals to me...LPs do sound "warmer", but they sound more muddled to me.

They're both good though, supposing the music is good.

Jodel...the first time I listened to it, I thought "Holy hell! A psychadelic harmonica solo...who else could've ever thought of that!?"

You're way ahead of me, but then again I don't know what you mean by "young".

I'm 18 and have about 130 albums...I'd count, but I'm not at home now. It's something like that.

Dead Man's Clothes...I just always thought of it as a really cool song. In fact, I found it indicative of WST in general and the direction that SV was going before they broke up.

Any Nick Drake fans here?

I finally broke down and bought all of Nick Drake's albums yesterday (after putting it off for awhile) and I've been enjoying it a lot, and I realized a couple things while I was listening: 1) This is the kind of music that I would expect lots of Farrar fans to like 2) I've never heard Nick Drake me...

Jeff Tweedy. He's got all the necessary weirdness that any good songwriter is supposed to have while being a really cool, down-to-earth guy. Much respect for him.

Radiohead in San Jose, CA for the Amnesiac tour. Found out about the concert two hours after tickets sold out.

Wait, now you're hating on Kid A!? Kid A is simply the best Radiohead album ever...it is an EXPERIENCE to listen to that cannot be likened to anything, AGIB included.
