Agreed, but you gotta recognize that shaizada's ears have been carpet-bombed by the B-52 for some time now.

Went to my daughter's 8th grade graduation and felt proud. Odd not to be going back to that place after 9 years. Onward and upward.

Obviously.

Steve Earle -- Townes

Awesome Greg. Those speakers really did sound good. Although I think it was the transport/DAC mostly. Congrats and good luck with the Manleys.

I disagree. People don't even see those as headphones. They see them as noise canceling devices for airplanes and such. Not the same.

Actually, he's a known non-douche-nozzle.

Nope, that huge Jaba the Hut guy slurps those all up. Sorry.

Allman(s) really are hot right now with Derek and Warren. dew eet!

I agree, Justin, and I think it would be a mistake to exclude them from the next CanJam. Maybe limit the number of them who get in on each table reserved and set ground rules excluding: (1) giant displays or crap; (2) videotaping/lighting every fucking movement; (3) that really obnoxious guy with the beard; and (4) tell Noel Lee that Segway will be limited to viable areas/rooms.

Yeah, I am not sure either. Now, more new old jazz: Freddie Hubbard -- Without a Song: Live in Europe 1969

Monk -- OJC Six Pack Do you know about these new collections, Chris?

Did Noel Lee cruise you, Greg?

Peter Holsapple and Chris Stamey -- Here and Now Curious what the heart of the dBs produce 20 years later.

Hey Steve, you made a good choice jumping into the deep end. Enjoy the swim.

Sonic Youth -- The Eternal

I can help you out if need be. Does this guy have boxes?

I rarely sell stuff, and the last thing I "sold" didn't seem to net me anything at all.

Obviously. That's very cool, Mike! Congrats.

I kept meaning to respond to this post and lost track. Yes, I bought David's Cicadas and have joined the Team. I have yet to hear them, though, which should be resolved this weekend. Get out here, indeed, but apparently we will be coming your way for CanJam 2010. See you then.

Was: Ray Charles -- Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music Is: Charles Earland -- Black Talk

Must buy! Long wait rewarded!

True dat. Last Friday I went to my *little* girl's 8th Grade play, and they did an incredible modern take on Romeo and Juliet set in SF. I sat there thinking that in the very same auditorium I had *just* seen her give her first kindergarten concert with the teacher showing off their singing and xylophone skills. On Wednesday, she graduates and will be in high school by August. Man, do I feel like she is slipping away. . . For more perspective on the long haul, however, last night my family celebrated my dad's 87th birthday at his favorite Mexican restaurant. The staff came out singing and served him a shot of tequila, which he knocked off in two slugs even though he doesn't really drink at all. My mom, 4 of 6 children, and 8 of 17 grandkids also were in attendance. Things change, but luckily they stay the same too. Oh yeah, and happy first birthday beautiful Lily!
