I used to watch a raggedy VHS copy of this movie while sitting in a dark apartment, sound on the TV off, listening to the first four King Crimson records on vinyl, and in a "mental state" on a fairly regular basis my junior year in college.

I went to the North American premiere of Senna at SXSW a few years ago. No one knew that Roger was coming, but when he arrived, it was literally an explosion of whispering. No standing ovation or anything silly like that, just craning necks and pointing. 
After the film I was transporting Asif Kapadia to another event,…

I hate to be that guy, but I knew a kid in the 9th grade who only played guitar by tapping. We encouraged it. Every performance required at least one whammy bar divebomb and an entire phrase of pinch harmonics, too. After a few months we got tired of him, his neon yellow Ibanez RG550 and his stale bag of tricks and…

Entwistle was the indistincive singing voice in The Who, really. Well, other than Boris the Spider, I suppose. Good singer, but the bass was his true voice. 
(edit: falsetto in A Quick One… all Ox)

Because Bob Pollard.

This ep sat unwatched on our DVR for a week, largely due to the ominous preview offered here as part of the second episode review. We finally got around to watching it last night. 
We laughed more during this episode then either of the first two.
I guess that makes us simpletons?

Ironically, no dates in Texas. Texans are the reason, I'm sure.

Some things need to go away…

Don't stop believing. 
And fade to black…

The best thing Disney could do for the fans is give us the original, unmolested theatrical cuts on BluRay with 5.1 audio. That's what I want my kids to see.

I'm out.

I'm out.

My wife, at the conclusion of the episode, "When is this goddamn How I Met Your Fucking Dumbass Cocksucking Mother bullshit going to end? Fuck!"
Indeed.
If it goes to season and 9, I'm out.

Watt has been an obsessed Mac geek since they were introduced in '84. Just sayin'.

My senior year in college ('97), I interviewed Watt for my student paper. This was for the Engine Room tour, I think. I met the Sony rep at the Galaxy Club in Deep Ellum, and she walked me and my two buddies back to Watt. What I thought would be a cursory 5 minutes Q&A ended up being a 90 minute discussion, in his van…

My wife and I want to like this show, and it is watchable, if not up to the bar set by Parks & Rec or Community, but as the parents of a 9-month old girl, we find ourselves asking the TV rhetorically and incredulously, "Where the hell is your baby?" Seriously, for a show  centered around parenthood, there's very…

Least funny episode so far. Still, with a baby approximately the same age as Amy, we routinely spend a solid hour or so looking for NBC's bugging devices in our lamps and under tables. Seriously, it's freaking uncanny… Ah, the universality of parenthood.
