Any idea what Bruce will do for the 30th ann of Born In The USA next year? Not that I'm presuming insider knowledge on your part or anything.

Very good of you to say so. I'm just obsessive, that's all. My main iPod has about 19,400 songs on it, and another has about 2000 - that holds my pre 60s rock n roll and blues stuff.

The thing that was dramatic was real-time replies to different threads as more info/rumours came in, but there's no way to capture that as it unfolds. As you say, it would have to be once the threads have all stopped.

Raspberry Beret, Warren Zevon version.

Many Happy Returns. I'm 41 now, but not for much longer.

If any Beatles track can be said to be an overlooked classic, it's that one.

Telephoning Is For Fuckheads?

Seems like a good egg.

All I feel at the minute is the flame of injustice in my chest over this review. But no, not really. It's taken six months to get here, though i think the majority of my comments have come in the last couple of months.

God, no.

What do we think would've been the outcome of Neko intervening in that Honolulu situation?

Nailguns as percussion - could work …

I miss graphic equalisers.

Vince seems to be a fairly cool name in the US. Not so in the UK.

What we need is a full Basement Tapes release. How many times do I have to say it?

With Paul Bettany, no less, and a couple of other faces I can't put names to. It's inessential, but then the book's in my bottom three Amis.

Re Lennon and paradoxes, Lenny Bruce said something about being guilty of all the sins in society he attacked. 
And as for Ob-La-Di … I think his voice is so good on it, it gets you through. Rocky Raccoon, on the other hand …

I doubt he/she spent anywhere near an evening on it.

Comment is superfluous.

And this all happens over at The Dissolve.
