Unsurprisingly, Steven Wilson's To The Bone is missing from this list. I'm loving what I've heard so far.

The most ridiculous thing is that Veep got two noms for writing. There were some strengths this season, but the writing was awful.

I could be wrong, but I believe in that case he would have been prompted with a 'be more specific'. I believe once first names are 'introduced', so to speak, any follow-up responses need the first name.

Odd connections here. #1 and #4 well-known for both starring on Firefly, and #2 and #3 well-known for both starring in Prison Break.

It's amazing to me that so many people who get on Jeopardy don't actually appear to want to win, given those wagers.

I haven't played Hold 'em in a while. What happened?

I absolutely love Coheed but I've actually never seen them, sadly. They're a brilliant mix of prog and pop sensibilities.

Incubus…doesn't sound anything like Linkin Park, really. I'm not sure where that comparison comes from. They haven't rapped since SCIENCE/Make Yourself, and they actually have people who can play their instruments.

I'm not sure Incubus really belongs with nu-metal. Tool was another band that got lumped into nu-metal sometimes for no apparent reason. The two main nu-metal bands that people defend as respectable and talented are System of a Down and Deftones, I think.

I'm not going to say you're wrong, but if you've only heard the radio songs you haven't heard some of the more interesting stuff they've done.

Oh, I posted in the wrong topic to discuss Incubus (even though that podcast summary didn't). They're one of the few bands from my youth that I still really like. S.C.I.E.N.C.E. and Morning View are great all the way through, Make Yourself is mostly great, and every other album still has a least a few good songs.

Even though they apparently weren't actually the band in this episode, I'll stand by Incubus. They have some really, really fucking good songs, and S.C.I.E.N.C.E. ("Summer Romance, "Deep Inside") and Morning View ("Just a Phase", "11 AM") are pretty much great from back to front.

Nice, wasn't expecting to see Steven Wilson so high up. My favorite is "Shesmovedon" (from Lightbulb Sun, not Deadwing), but if we're going to pick a Guthrie Govan solo I'd have to go with "Drive Home".

Porcupine Tree's "Shesmovedon". The original from Lightbulb Sun, not the remake on Deadwing.

Lateralus is so damn good.

Still listening to the new Ayreon. Like it a lot.

I watched Tottenham beat Arsenal and it was great.

The new Ayreon is certainly Ayreon. Much better than the last release, that's for sure.

I continued recovering from the appendectomy I had last Monday. I do not recommend having your appendix burst. It is not pleasant.

The aforementioned Chris Long is white. They also have a bunch of other white players, so we'll see if any more of the white players decline.
