You know what? Good for them. I’ve got no personal connection to this subculture. No interest in the music. But peacefully organizing over shared interests (including Faygo, whatever that is; I don’t think that’s a thing where I live) and standing up to the powers that be? — those seem to me to be praiseworthy things.

Hate to rain on all your parades, but now that this asshole is coming to my neck of the woods, watch him start LOVING his life.

You think that’s bad? Try listening to Gone. At least it wasn’t a freight train crash.

That’s very sad, but my celebrity give-a-shit is all used up because Don Williams died today.

Just to emphasize how big that upset of Brooks & Dunn was, they had won Vocal Duo of the Year from 1991 to 2006. Just an absurd run.

Looks like the Gawker-esque format change has liberated the AV Club writers into getting out their personal burn books. Speaking as someone here for the rage and chaos, I approve.

So I’m definitely going to check out Marijata. There is this album I love called Soul of Angola; it’s a bunch of music from the 70's, I think, and it’s just so cool and funky. It’s an anthology or compilation or something, so a bunch of different artists.

Um, no, and now I MUST.

UGH I saw that he was doing that, and I didn’t get it either night. So there was a bit of disappointment. But he did play Elephant on Saturday, so that was cool.

Is Isbell still encoring with Whipping Post? Dude can fucking run a slide alongside Duane Allman anyday.

I finally listened to the new Aimee Mann, and wow is it great. I kind of have to be in the mood for her, because she basically has just one speed, but when I am, she really hits a sweet spot.

Jessica Hernandez and the Deltas - Telephone / Telefono.
Hernandez took her Winehouse-ish big voiced soul / disco / garage punk fusion and made a new record, then translated it in spanish. The lyrics and instrumentation and overall feel differ on each album. Good stuff.

Both Flair and my dad are alcoholic absent fathers but my dad didn’t wrestle 3 classic matches against Steamboat in 1989 so I love Flair more.

The night before, his agent had sent me his phone number, suggesting that we meet at either his place or mine. A couple of hours later, Rodgers texted me and told me he’d come here.

He seems like a really good dude. And I hate being a Bears fan feeling that way about a great Packers QB.

Is that Aaron Rodgers or Jim from The Office impersonating Aaron Rodgers?

I love their ownership structure. I mean, the shares might as well be completely worthless, but when they wanted to refurbish Lambeau, all they had to do was conduct a stock offering and people were more than willing to line up and fund it!

He must be honored to receive such a blessing from an owner!
