Now I remember why I haven’t played this one through in a long ass time. I remembered hating Highly Suspicious and it has unsurprisingly not aged well. But I completely forgot the schmaltz of “Thank You Too!” Ugh.
I can't remember the last time I listened to this in its entirety front to back. Gonna have to remedy that on the patio this evening. If nothing else, it will be worth the anticipation of getting to that final one two punch.
Caught most of the FJM stream earlier. That band he's touring with really adds some punch to the new stuff. Hangout at the Gallows especially stood out.
This song was on some early 90's compilation I had on cassette called "Rap's Greatest Hits Volume 3." There were some jams on it. "My Mic Sound Nice" by Salt n Pepa, "Nobody Beats the Biz," "My Adidas," "I Know You Got Soul." Ahhh....memories.
Saw them there for both The Suburbs and Reflektor. I loathe that venue (mainly the drive from Clear Lake and back home) but they were awesome both times.
Say what you want about Everything Now (and it's only half bad), I wish they were coming to Houston. Not many bands I don't miss when they come around but AF remain one of them. This song always reminded me of Neil Young on the EP, btw.
I missed at the few theaters it actually played in near me for a very limited run. But I'm with you on In Bruges. I LOVE that film. For a such a dark comedy with some fairly questionable content it's a truly beautiful film. And fucking hilarious.
Not to turn this into a TP fanboy thread, but how great are the Mitchum bros? They are just down for whatever "Dougie" wants. What? Plane to Spokane? Not only are we down, but we and the girls are coming with. What's that? You're not Dougie Jones but an FBI agent who has been missing for 25 years? We're still down. Never thought I'd love Jim Belushi in anything. I was wrong.
I've seen this man and his fucking impeccable band about five(?) times since he toured with Paul Simon for Time Out of Mind. If Dylan comes to my town and I'm not there it means he outlived me.
This comes the closest to how I reacted out of anything I've read here.
Kept texting my friends about how I wasn't sure how I felt about using a political character to sing about a third of Hallelujah as some sort of tribute to both the genius of Cohen and somehow bring solace to people terrified of the next four years. I think it came from a good place, but was a bit off the mark for me to get the reaction they were going for, and it bordered on and possibly breached into the realm of bad taste. Goddamn Tribe was great.
He said he hadn't heard back from Joe Perry and a journalist from Billboard asked Steven Tyler if he'd be participating in their farewell tour? What an asshole that person is. I don't care how you feel about Aerosmith, that shit is real life. Have some integrity and empathy.
Dude, I just replied to someone else's comment with pretty much the same reaction. I mean, I had an older sister who was way into hair metal in the 80's so I was indoctrinated on Bon Jovi and Motley Crue, but I kinda figured that song was so iconic that basically everyone who has ever turned on a radio in their life knows the chorus to that song.
Super excited to get this delivered tomorrow. That album kicks so much ass but the mix made it sound like its being played in a room down the hall or something.
