That's the one where they segue into Train in Vain, right? It is indeed good.

I have now seen this movie. A C+ was charitable. It feels like it's 4 hours long.

The 1-2 punch of Another Radio Song and No Key, No Plan makes the Black Sheep Boy Appendix just as vital or moreso than the album proper.  It's a shame that even many OR fans don't know those two, and they're rarely performed at concerts.

Pitchfork also can't stand anything that doesn't sound like today's hippest hottest electrofunk indie underground hip hop collective.  Or whatever is hot this week.  Everything else is so dated.

A/V Club could also have featured Alec Eiffel on this list.  A pioneer of aerodynamics!  He thought big and they called it a phallus.

I saw EITS open for Fugazi in an empty furniture warehouse in Houston in 2001.  Nobody quite knew what to make of them, especially since most of the audience was underage punks.  I recall them being loud, in a very good way.  Saw EITS again opening for Arcade Fire in Austin in 2011.  They put on a sedentary but

This is a pointless comment that nobody will read, but I wanted to share that my college roommate had the threesome scene from this movie saved on his computer in his MP3 folder under the title "Collective Soul Three Way Accoustic."  

"Take Our Test" is one of the best songs of all time.  That's all I came here to say.  Bye now.

I want a Bob Ross original.  How awesome would it be to have your own Happy Little Trees and fluffy clouds above a majestic mountain lake?

No, that's perfectly allowable.  The beauty of her talent just enhances her physical beauty.

Asleep at the…Widespread…wings on…guh?

Just amazing.  It's heartbreaking to watch this now, but I'm glad I have.  The cover of Big Star's "Nighttime" is one I've never heard Smith do before.  And their performance of Happiness is just…I mean…

Everyone knows Big Star…it's just you have to explain to them first that the theme song to That Seventies Show is a Big Star song, which they didn't know.  In conclusion, outside of your effete little music world, nobody knows Big Star.  But they should.

And Wilco, and Teenage Fanclub, and the Lemonheads!

Cenac is going the movie route.  He just filmed a lead in Growing Up (And Other Lies), coming out next year.

It's fascinating and ironic that "The Principal and the Pauper" was critically panned as a sign of the beginning of the end of the Simpsons, a satire/parody show.  But Mad Men's Don Draper origin story is astonishingly similar, and yet as a serious drama the show is almost impossible to criticize.

Mother Night.  A great summation of part of Vonnegut's worldview.
