Well, they say write what you know. So…

if only they had an extra comma and a space laying around. "Fun, comfortable" is something I could support.

I like to think that at the end of the interview, the reporter silently hands Lucas a dictionary with Anti-hero underlined and then walks out of the room.

Seems like he's found himself in a lonely place.

Non Plus Ultra is also recommended listening. Pretty solid catalog throughout.

I thought the story was that Kurt Cobain was buried in Mr. Roger's Lynyrd Skynyrd shirt that was given to him by Ronnie Van Zandt, who was buried in a Neil Young shirt given to him by Kurt Cobain, while Neil continues to wear the cardigan that Mr Rogers gave him because it gets chilly around the ranch this time of…

Rad! I was in the right time and place to watch Milemarker transform from a good-but-somewhat-standard-issue "angular" post-hardcore band playing house shows into something else entirely, and dug all of it. The only question is whether there be an accompanying Burn Collector to obliquely talk about what it was like…

Even if it comes with a union card and a wedding coat?

I actually liked the Zwan record, but not nearly as much as I thought I'd like a band with the more-talented half of Smashing Pumpkins, the guy from Chavez on guitar, and David Pajo on bass. For a certain segment of record nerds, it was something of a supergroup.

Maybe, but probably not. This is the same person who was briefly bandmates with Tommy Lee.

Oh yeah, "when you apply it to yourself instead of trying to apply it to everybody else, it can be a beautiful thing" is both at the very heart of Christian teaching (QV Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector, as well as the literal Virtue of Humility, y'all), yet specifically at odds with many people who have…

SIX SEASONS AND… let's be cool with that.

Well, given that he was a CCD teacher (AKA Sunday School for the non-Catholics out there) and his personal history, that's not too surprising. I'm sort of envious of people who find comfort in a strong faith.

If we're being serious (not exactly the AV Club's milieu), then I'm not sure what's difficult to understand. But I'll lay it out for you.

Wait, what? Did he mean celestial-being-angel-of-God-my-guardian-dear guardian angels, or red-beret-with-lots-of-flair guardian angels?

I think Colbert's trick, which seems to be hard to pull off, is that he's able to show a great deal of heart and sincerity without coming off as schmaltzy, and a healthy dose of skepticism without seeming cynical or bitter.

John Oliver: The last sane person on television.

Yeah, but the Smiths and the Beatles broke up. With someone like the Who, it's more of a Ship of Theseus situation. I agree that something like Townsend & Daltrey would look more dignified on a marquee at this point, but that implies that they would be doing something other than Who songs as the Who. Also, they don't…

The rhythm section must be substitutes for some other folks. They sound pretty good but they're not Moon and Ox. The simple things you hear are all complicated. They look pretty old but they're just post-dated, yeah.

It can't rain all the time, but if you're in Denver tonight, grab a jacket.
