Not sure where this is relevant, but the new webpage layout is absolutely terrible.

Which is why it is so great when he discovers the shallow self-involved jerk hiding beneath that supposedly benelvolent facade. It was a really accurate depiction of naive crushes, and how reality destroys all your best wishes and dreams for a girl/boyfriend. Especially in high school Brutal way to learn that you

Will take what I can get, and like it! I look forward to it! Much appreciated!

Lightning Bolt. I saw stuffed animals savagely treated at a LB warehouse show in Philly. There were also torches. I am not kidding. It was one of the best nights of my life. And it was, like, 120 degrees in that place.

Help!
Heller, I think you are the man for this -

I never have been quick with the sarcasm. Apologies on the dull bulb. Little touchy, obviously. Though you might be surprised at just how common that perspective is amongst a lot of people, mainstream or counter culture. It is discouraging.

My guess is that you will get plenty of Wild Flag interviews once tehy cut the record. And oh man, am I stoked for that record!!! Mary Timony, CB, and someone from Unwound (and someone else, I guess)??? Yes, yes, yes, and sure!!!

Uh, what?
"It's about the nebulously defined idea of "Science And Society" (toss a "vs." in there instead of an "and," and you might have something)…"

Just want to throw in another voice of support to continue this series beyond 10 entries. It has been a lot of fun to rehash the past, especially since in this era of instant access to all pop culture, so many of us have rewritten our 90s' experiences and what we are into. It's nice I like Bikini Kill and Fugazi and

The only thing I have to add to the sundress+Docs combo is super-short hair. Preferably dyed some insane color. Yep, that does it. Of course, I never had the balls to talk to any of those girls, even though we were the same damn age. Youth… Stupid damn youth.

From someone who was obsessed with Nirvana for the better part of 5 years: Grohl was always clearly good, and obviously better than Chad Channing, but I never though he was amazing until QOTSA. Seriously - he never did anything like Song For the Dead with Nirvana (or Foo Fighters). For me, his praise these days is a

I will back that up. It is a weird piece of work that stands the test of time - one of the few grunge records that doesn't sound out of place amongst my other records (despite over reliance of the crash cymbal by the drummer - seriously, WTF Seattle? You guys didn't need to wail on that tiny piece of metal EVERY

To be fair, the whale tail phenomenon was - if memory serves - almost completely the responsibility of Gwen Stefani and Eve in the "Let Me Blow Your Mind" video. Because they looked fucking hot. Bartender at the college bar on a Saturday night? Let's just say that, in some ways, baggy sweaters were generally more

Does anyone else have a fond place in their history for this band? Cantaloupe blew my mind when I heard it in 8th grade… in my Algebra teacher's classroom. Yeah, she was cool. Heavily medicated, but cool. But still, what ever happened after Pass The Torch? It's not as if there aren't a gajillion awesome jazz

Back that up. Taught me some of the best Yo Mama jokes I know. And "Passin' Me By"??? Aw Shit!

Oh
These assholes again. You still need Zach G. to be funny.

And you can get all of the Beatles' appearances on a box set for like $20. It's the 4 episodes, not just the 4 appearances, so it shows you exactly what pop cultural setting they were erupting into. Like opera and bad comedy acts. Also Ella Fitzgerald, though. Anyway, it is stark and shocking how *different* they

Richard Pryor/Gil-Scott Heron show exactly what the show COULD have been, had Lorne let the subsequent casts be and allowed Paul Schaeffer to pick all of the musical guests. But, no, apparently Lorne is funnier than all of his writers, which is why we are blessed with the show we have now. That I haven't watched in

As in I didn't go. Dammit! Almost as bad as missing The White Stripes at a dive bar on the White Blood Cells tour for $5 .

So is "Liquor Store" by Less Than Jake. You know it is true.
