Wow, that's most lopsided lineup I've ever heard.

As a teenager I went to my local alternative rock radio station's big summer festival in 1996 basically just to see Beck—who despite just releasing Odelay was performing mid-day while No Doubt headlined. The whole lineup of that day just reads like a whos-who of the dregs of the mid-90s though. 311, Seven Mary

I saw Dylan a few years back and Mark Knopfler opened for him—and while I'm not really a big fan of Knopfler/Dire Straits, he put on a great show—he mixed in a lot of English and Irish folk-influenced stuff, good solid band, nice choice of songs. People were in good spirits and having fun.

I think when they played the SF Bay Area show at Shoreline for that tour the Roots had replaced Wu Tang(and I think that one or two members of Wu Tan played some songs with the Roots). I remember hearing the crowd was confused by Atari Teenage Riot.

And that earnestness is really from Pearl Jam circa "Ten". Most of the other "grunge" bands like Nirvana or Soundgarden had at least some moments of mocking humor or cynicism.

As in Helsinki, Sweden.

You need a Master's Degree at minimum.

Ha ha, take that Jurgen Habermas!

Who is the Game of Thrones equivalent of the Tudors though?

The show has way too much to actually do with history to be on the History Channel at this point. I thought most of their shows were about pawn shops and backwoods hillbillies and swamp folk at this point.

He played Robbie Krieger in The Doors and killed Jimmy Hoffa in Hoffa!

Adam Goldberg is waiting for the call.

Looks like everything is coming up Novoselic!

I love this story because I picture this tiny, pudgy Brett Ratner driving away with a giant muffaletta sandwich in the passenger seat.

Don't worry she doesn't go for scruffy looking nerf-herders…

Well, at least it won our hearts…

Either that or Guillermo del Toro will make a film about a handicapped person with mental illness. No film could beat that combo at the Oscars.

It has a shot, because after the "Oscars is too white" backlash last year, Furious 7 is probably one of the most diverse casts of any film out this year(and an Asian director). That's the sort of reactionary move the Oscars are known for.

No, no, no. Everyone knows Con Air should have won all the Oscars in 1997 though. That's the Nic Cage flick that had it all.

Jefferson Airplane had a great version of "Somebody to Loathe" from a performance at the Fillmore in 1969.
