Who the hell is Pete Doherty?

yes
I didn't even realize this was coming out. Face the Truth was awesome.

Also, I liked the movie, which I saw for the first time yesterday. And hello, anyone who's reading this. Love you.

Wow
That Steely Dan thing from the first page of comments is genius.

Many of the songs don't work.

NIC CAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow
The Carson Daly show has writers? Huh. That's really something.

Seconding, "Who the hell is Bai Ling?"

Youth
Does anyone else find it amazing that the Davies brothers were only in their early 20s through most of the "Golden Age?" By Muswell Hillbillies they were still only 27 and 24.

Between my typing that post and my posting it, the cat got in my lap and changed "Neil" to "Neal." This is a major breakthrough in feline studies.

So the stupefication of America continues. We still have to poop.

Oh Shit
Neal Young is really going to feel bad when he realizes that "science and physics and spirituality" make even less impact than music.

Beck and Pavement are aptly linked, via Ashbery.
