A Year in the Life, you can't forget A Year in the Life

Bob doesn't even have an e-mail account, actually. I think he stopped using technology invented after like 1980

I'd recommend Lord of the Birdcage as a solid recent solo LP!

Class Clown gets my vote for best, but I haven't listened to Bears as much yet.

Just listen to all of them, really. Spaceships is the best Pollard side project that I'd even rank above a chunk of GBV albums.

I guess all the rumors and stories I've heard have been positive, so YMMV! I'd still want to grab a beer with him and pick his brain.

Well, I'd certainly love to see a OTM with him or Sprout. Pollard seems to have cool stories behind some of his more mysterious lyrics.

I think Pollard ran over his dog, Lobsters.

Tell us how you really feel about Robert Pollard, turtlehead.

Yeah I wasn't blown away, but after a few listens it's got its hooks in me like any other expertly crafted Pollard song.

GBV Inc. I believe

Wait it's on Robert Pollard's official facebook page

i guess it's not officially announced by any media outlets yet, but it's coming don't you worry!

We participate in this shit, yeah that's a hit

Boston Spaceships (until now I guess) have largely been filling the modern day GBV-niche, too. I can't recommend them enough.

The next GBV LP (Class Clown Spots a UFO) is already lined up for May, with a solo album from Pollard inbetween. Good lord the man cranks out music. Cannot wait!

Can't go wrong with Beard or Cubehouse, really. And I wouldn't be surprised to see a new GBV record in the future…

SPOILERS

Yeah, the GBV show I went to was amazing (as far as the show/performances/setlist), but yeah that crowd was horribly annoying and loved moshing to every damn song. Moshing to Awful Bliss is just…wrong.
