The Boz Scaggs concert I attended was maybe the best I ever saw, entirely because the opening act was the MC5.

Matt, in Wisconsin?

Boz Scaggs and Steve Miller both went to St. Marks School Of Texas here in Dallas.

I was looking for this Ty last week

Wait. I just realized you weren't talking about Boz Scaggs in reference to Boz SKAggs. Never miiiind the bullocks, here's Ty Segall! Gabba gabba hey hey hey everybody skank!

Sir Douglas Sahm, always good party rock.

Useless trivia: Future Byrds bassist John York (Easy Rider era) was an original member of the Sir Douglas Quintet and is on cover of their first album.

Matt from Springfield:

Whoa! Is this Bobby Darin in his social justice/folky phase?! This one's pretty good!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:59am
Matt from Springfield:

@KP: McGuinn was the only constant one, so many other musicians have passed through the Byrds.
  1:01am
KP:

Ok a Byrds stretch from Bobby Darin. When he went folkie, he added Jim McGuinn as his accompanist/arranger. That was the future Roger's last gig before going (inventing) folk/rock
  1:01am
Maxx Tuneage:

Trivial Pursuedesuit: Bobby Darin's love for the ol' chess board was only rivaled by his love of the Bobby Skarin Rude Boy Skatet.
  1:03am
KP:

Yes Matt. The latter-day country Byrds have many fans, including meself and just about everybody I know
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:05am

Knew it! "Sir Robert Darin Sings the Standards!", if he had lived to the present day...

Mogwai released an album a couple of years ago called "Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will."
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:13am

That's the kind of self-aware punk/metal meta-fan-reference we like, BGZ.
  1:16am
KP:

Mogwai's next release will apparently be called Come On Die Young.
I sense a theme.
Avatar 1:16am
BadGuyZero:

Those Mogwai guys display their sharp wit in their song titles.
Avatar 1:18am
BadGuyZero:

They re-released a deluxe version of "Come On Die Young" for its fifteenth anniversary. "Rave Tapes" is Mogwai's most recent album.
  1:18am
KP:

They're one of the many bands that when I bring home the cd I realize I have it, snd of course suspected that
  1:23am
KP:

White Hills/Gnod as first heard here is the best thing I bought since moving to NYC. Great driving music
Avatar 1:30am
BadGuyZero:

I'm giving up hope that the 4-LP version of "Come On Die Young" is going to get released in the U.S. The shipping cost alone from overseas is in the $35-$50 range; the box set costs around $100. Why do I have to be a completist nerd?
  1:34am
P-90:

@BGZ: because what's more fun than being a completist nerd?
  1:38am

Do it before you have somebody checking on everything that comes into the house.

FXX.

EVERY. SIMPSONS. EVER. I myself have wasted much of my weekend doing just that!!

And YES! they show the GD Hanes kitten T-shirt commercial too much! BUT--I think they're showing the pre-syndication 23 MIN episodes! So great, they have those little clips I missed over years of 1 minute syndication edits!
Avatar 1:45am
BadGuyZero:

Is that the one where Homer eats the ghost pepper?
Avatar 1:47am
BadGuyZero:

@Matt: Yes, the episodes are uncut. They will air the cut-for-syndication versions afterwards. They said they will air the uncut episodes on special occasions.

And more geography teaching in the U.S.!! I'm a geographer, so don't make me open your brains and cram geography into it!!! ...The More You Know!

Early this afternoon I reached the point where I started to remember the original airings of the episodes and the little bits I haven't seen since original broadcast.

Therese, did you record the Mtv VMAs? Quite moving
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:49am
Matt from Springfield:

@BGZ: Heeeheeeheeeheee, sweet! :)

If there was an every-[soap opera]-ever marathon, I think they should run every Days Of Our Lives, because of the awful continuity story problems over the years. Characters killed off, brought back and recycled, that show is a train wreck.

The DVDs of the early Simpsons seasons are $15-$20 per season on Amazon.

I was scanning the cover of Hank IV's "Depravity's Rainbow" single last night. I miss you and Mike hanging out on-air. Those shows often made me anxious as Mike would plumb the darker corners of the human psyche much to your unease.
