Well this is just a great fucking idea. I have never ever turned that station on and NOT had it play “Jumper” within an hour.

As anyone who worked festivals in the 90s will tell you, Stephen Jenkins is only a distant third in the Alt-Rock Asshole Olympics.

Dude, Sugar Ray and 3EB have a good 10-12 songs everyone knows....that makes them FAR from one-hit wonders. If anything the Toadies are one-hit wonders...that not a fucking soul knows the name of the song!

On the Sirius 90’s channel - we had a game called Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, or Smashing Pumpkins. Pick a band and put $5 in the pot. Whichever one comes on next wins. Guaranteed you’d have a winner at least once every half hour.

My close group of friends and I had a game we’d play at most parties/gatherings/nights of Quarters:

You made my day with this article. I am a late 80’s kid, and Third Eye Blind has been one of the few musical staples that hasn’t changed for me. I think their music started getting a little on the softer side of alt-rock with Ursa Major, but that’s to be expected as they themselves get older, and to me, it’s not the…

I wish you would step back from that hot take, my friend.

I still maintain that Jenkins is a great writer because he lacks all self awareness. So many of their hits are these great songs where the narrator is so unaware that he’s a complete douchebag. It’s amazing. “Why can’t you be” cited above is a good example as is “10 Days late,” because what’s more self indulgent than…

These guys came to my school for our spring concert in 2010. It was....AWESOME. There were about 50 people in total in the gym. This number may include the band and everyone associated with them. And me. Just me.

What is “No Way In Hell” Alex?

First off, thanks for the all caps and for the lesson. Much appreciated.

I love the screen name. I’ve been a Chicago team hating Chicago resident before.

Nice try moron. You can see that I made no distinction about political affiliation. So take your Tea Party persecution complex or whatever it is this week that you are whining about and move on.

Which doesn’t change the fact that the Bucks have a negligible-at-best impact on the economy of the region. The corporate money that would get spent on the Bucks would get spent elsewhere (Brewers, Admirals, cocaine dealers). The ticket dollars that would go to the Bucks would get spent elsewhere (Brewers, Packers…

You post is so riddled with factual and conceptual errors that it deserves some kind of award for overall wrongness.

The Bucks may be the main tenant to Bradley Center, but on average, Marquette draws more fans. Losing the Bucks wouldn’t ruin the Milwaukee economy. The Milwaukee City Budget is 1.5 BILLION dollars. The Milwaukee County Budget? 1.3 BILLION. The Bucks are, quite literally, a drop in the bucket of the overall economies…

Hey,

The lack of facts in your comment are usefully instructive as to why scams like this can get passed.

Will it exceed that? This thing is going to cost the state $400 million counting interest. Currently the NBA jock tax nets the state about $6 million a year. It should go up over time, but at best you’re realistically just shoveling money in a circle. The players get taxed to build their own arena while the owners get…

Ohhhh friend you came to the right place. I am an evangelist for this shit.
