John Mayer is the Dylan of his generation. I'm speaking of Jakob Dylan, of course.

Makes sense. I'd still love to see what he could do the source material. Not many directors could nail down that Lovecraft vibe but I think he could.

I thought the whole movie was pretty terrible but the real sticking point for me was the guy who played Veidt. That character is supposed to be this brilliant, charismatic pinnacle of humanity and the actor had the emotional range of a hat rack. Every scene with him took me out of what was already a fairly lousy…

I still hold out hope that someday a studio exec will be drunk or high enough to give him the budget to make At The Mountains of Madness the way it should be done.

Everyone tries to pretend that never happened and are right to do so.

It's the band that did the song I Want Candy.

Every time I see Jacques Renault on there, I can only think of him as the cable guy that Kramer torments.

I don't know if he qualifies as "popular" but the local radio station keeps playing a song by Passenger and the vocals make me want to set fire to the singer.

I've seen SLF a few times and the crowd seemed way more into hearing Alternative Ulster and Suspect Device, which they saved for the end.

No Rosalita, no dice.

I've been eagerly awaiting Richard Dent's follow-up record for 31 years.

I heard 2 inches of rain on Sunday. The last couple months have been utterly depressing and the very few nice days we've gotten somehow make the returns to grey, cold, and rainy all the more difficult to endure.

The world needs more Beat Happening. And fast.

I love Box Elder. By far my favorite of the real early Pavement stuff.

I dunno. Some turtles can live for a couple hundred years.

And then Tommy made that album of standards sung in the voice of an Italian-American lawyer. They were right to whack him after that.

You're about 6 bawling children short of realism.

Renton's gonna come out the other end of the toilet and end up in Storyville. Then it is on.

Just jump ahead to the final episode. You won't miss anything beyond the neverending adventures of James Hurley, Traveling Man and Windom Earle, Flute Enthusiast.
