Sure it's a different scenario, but in his open letter post he doesn't say the bragging is the only problem. He puts the ethics aside "for a moment" to address it, that's all. As to his own piracy, I don't see how he implies he paid for it eventually…all he says is that now that he doesn't need those plug-ins anymore,…

I mean, another turn of the screw, of course, not the worm turns.

The worm turns…the dude the YACHT dude stole from, who slams him for both pirating and admitting it, also admits to pirating software himself, on the same blog! http://www.analogindustries…. It's a giant spiral of irony…

Yeah, sorry, I was joking. The Clap record was too much of a lesser knock off of Byrne's style for me to be able to really dig it, though I tried…

Great, now every time I hear Beach House I will be thinking of Julee Cruise.

um, maybe you would like the Talking Heads…

I also like "Wilco the Song" and "Speak into the Rose" (although it's just standard Krautrock, but very well done) and also "You Never Know" (although it's just a big Harrison nod and ditto) and I'm sure there are a few peppier things scattered throughout the catalog that I would like fine. I hear them at work and…

Went to the premiere of this in NY and afterwards we all came out of the theater to find Tweedy sitting slouched outside against the wall in misery.
Anyway I came out thinking that I loved their music, but was disappointed when I listened to the record and found that my previous take on them as kind of bland and boring…

You guys are recycling material now, even?
I was just thinking of this today, actually. I actually bought a print of this movie based on the last article, and I was thinking today maybe I should finally watch it this weekend. Maybe this article was just meant for me. I hadn't forgotten it, honest!

Nice, energy to burn here! Like angry Rock-a-Teens.

Ok, first content-less shoutout "articles" to random songs and movies, and now this. It must be a bummer to try and make this site a going financial proposition, but that doesn't mean we want to feel the nauseau as it circles the drain…maybe they should start a nytimes style paywall. I would pay five bucks to have all…

Wait, we're supposed to get paid too?

Is it just me, or is AVClub becoming a bit of a facebook post? "Oh, here's a crappy song I remembered today…Here's a middling movie I remembered watching on VHS…Here's what I ate for lunch—holy shit, am I getting paid for this?

You'll dance to anything…

I think it's pretty good, too. I have a 16mm scope print of it bc I liked it when I saw it at Film Forum.

I went to one a few years ago, it  was great. He came runnign out after the movie and didn't realize the stage was so short and fell and gave himself a headache, but  carried on like a trooper. It was interesting to dislike the movie and question the point and then hear his reasons for doing everything he did (like…

Just pause it occasionally and stare out the window and whisper to yourself.
(I did really like it, btw, I'm just a little soured on the whole thing after having recently seen The New World)

I was going to say a nice copy of Imamura's Profound Desires of the Gods, but apparently that's on R2 DVD now. Then I was gonna say The Anthem, a short film by Weerasethakul that I saw projected twice and have been obsessed with ever since, habitually checking the Internet to see if it's turned up. It has now, on…

Todd VanDerWerff—
I have what you want. Sons and Daughters. The whole thing—even the unaired episode, which I dubbed onto a VCR from a friend's Tivo and then onto DVD (looks like shit, but hey!). If you want me to send you some DVRs, I'd be happy to. Cause that show is the best.
Vadim Rizov—
The script is out there, at…

Yo, did I miss the RIP for Donald Byrd, or is he getting dissed?
