A couple years ago I looked through an old box of cassettes that I used for driving back & forth to college and in my home stereo's tape deck... some of them made me feel sorry for the old me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-16065587262419128762011-02-20T14:04:39.776-05:002011-02-20T14:04:39.776-05:00I saw the New World tour at Ontario Theater and th...I saw the New World tour at Ontario Theater and they tore the fucking house down. Tore the fucking house down. Never saw or heard anything like it before or since. Those rare nights when you catch a band when everything and everyone is clicking. Kaboom!<br /><br />But the music just hasn't aged well for me. I remember it being fresh and urgent - it's like it had an expiration date. No doubt this is entirely on me.<br /><br />And I just might use the Chris Walken of rock and roll line, with full attribution, of course.<br /><br />And Alex Mooney, who I've met - accidentally, at a cocktail party of an acquaintance at Hilltop - is a motherfucking fat pig, and he's motherfucking proud of it.BDRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06557941385560728052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-22966383027825906752011-02-20T13:55:46.265-05:002011-02-20T13:55:46.265-05:00Oh Sasha, you know that there are 3 parties in Mar...Oh Sasha, you know that there are 3 parties in Maryland: Democratic (big), Republican (small) and Miller (decisive). If Senator Forever's finger isn't in the dike, its because the developers don't care about that dike. And, yes, that last sentence is ripe for punning, but Sasha started it.<br /><br />As for X --, what a band. Doh still has one of the best voices in rock and though they aren't what they once were, neither am I. So I do what I do with myself. I accept. Was it about 10 years ago that they came around on a reunion sort of thing? My wife said "let's go" and I said I can't watch another great memory explode in one of these tours. I went to bed. She came home ecstatic. I didn't miss the next one and I'm not sorry I went, stayed out 4 hours past mean bedtime and couldn't hear for 3 days. Yeah, this isn't 1980, but X is still better than most of it. And Billy Zoom is still the Chris Walken of rock and roll.<br /><br />dripAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-87732742049350066722011-02-20T12:43:48.396-05:002011-02-20T12:43:48.396-05:00Having spent much time lobbying and working on beh...Having spent much time lobbying and working on behalf of State Senators who support 'same sex' marriage (or just marriage for those of us who aren't homophobes) I'm pleased that it took the GOP so long to get around to griping.

It's their most mature album. Wild Gift and LA are period-pieces, what's after UTBBS gets a bit poppy and has that Knitters influence which isn't bad but to me isn't really X.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-46143646809318959342011-02-20T10:24:35.278-05:002011-02-20T10:24:35.278-05:00Yeah MST3K!
