Congratulations, missjo. That's a pretty cool ring.

Version 7.1 will be discontinued on Feb. 18th. Upgrade to 7.5 and you'll be able to continue using it for free.

I saw them a couple of years ago with Destroyer. It was a pretty good show, although I didn't know much about them at the time.

Have fun, patsy.

Donovan

Probably because they're there to do thing like push extended warranties and learning about the products they sell isn't a priority. The biggest problem with plasma screens these days is they don't look as good as LCD in a brightly-lit room. My living room doesn't get much sun so my plasma looks ama...

I already did... over a month ago... in this thread.

Excellent choice, James. You're obviously an informed consumer.

I'll try anything. Have you tried converting the aiffs to mp3 using iTunes?

Donovan

Oh yeah, I'm a real pro... No I have never posted my own torrents. Do you have to post torrents or can you just help seed others? It's practically essential to upload your own torrents. There are FAQs on the site that help you do it properly. If you sign up now you won't get the benefit of them not...

I think I gave up waiting for a new XTC album long ago. But as a faithful fan I'll continue to fund Partridge's retirement and buy all the demos and other crap he puts out.

Donovan

If you like Goo you'll also like Dirty. Besides that, Daydream Nation is a great place to start. From there I'd get EVOL and Washing Machine. Murray Street is my favourite of their more recent stuff.

It's too bad Oink doesn't allow discographies anymore or I'd tell ya to get the whole damn catalog.

Donovan

That shouldn't be a problem. What is it?

Donovan

The tracker is getting hammered hard. Good luck downloading anything right about now.

Good record. Glad Girls is in my top 5 of GBV songs.

As much as I hate to defend millionaires (and billionaires) whining that they aren't making enough money, they aren't the true villains here. The RIAA is lobbying to have artist royalties lowered , which is such bullshit because they kept crowing about how downloading was hurting the talent who crea...

I think I have that episode on my PVR. I record it every week but hardly get time to watch. I'll definitely check it out.

Donovan

They play this a lot on Sirius' Left Of Center. It's a catchy tune with quite the inspirational title. :)

Thanks for the link to the video.

Donovan

I've only heard that one song. It sounded like the Trash Can Sinatras or any one of those Madchester era bands.

are you guys familiar with the live set "Dime Store Novels: Live at Ebbets Field"?....Ebbets Field was a Denver bar.....but it's from 1974--somewhere around the Heart of Saturday Night LP. it's pretty sweet. It came out around the time I was really getting into Waits so I grabbed it. It's...

Dins, it wasn't part of a playlist. It came up randomly, which should have been obvious from the thread title. I agree that it's out of place as a single song. That's why I made the comment that it seemed too short.

What was ppanther doing up in Portland or wherever those Burgerville restaurants are? Scoring meth. I tend to avoid fast food when traveling, but I may have to try this Burgerville place the next time I'm in the U&L. I wonder if their sweet potato fries are as good as the ones I get at a local ...

You may have seen this on the Onion AV club. Basically you set your mp3 player to shuffle and post the first ten tracks that come up... and no cheating. If you don't have an mp3 player just throw your 8 tracks up in the air, or something. 1. Fugazi - Break-In My mp3 player must love Fugazi almost as...

They asked for my cc number the first time I called them. I refused to give it them, firstly because I didn't feel I should pay to fix their screwup, and secondly because I never give out my number over the phone. I don't even use my credit card to sign up for Live or buy those stupid points you nee...

Dins is right. A decent plasma will be rated to last over 20 years, and "burn in" is far less of an issue than it used to be. Plasmas also have far better contrast ratios and color than an LCD, although they're usually not as bright, so the lighting in your room should be a factor in what ...

Got my replacement 360 today. I immediately threw in Gears Of War and got up to the difficulty menu where it froze . So, I restarted it and made it to the opening cutscene before it froze again . I tried it again... and again... and again. Yup, kept freezing . The last time it lasted until I was out...

A cool new band for all of the dream-pop fans out there. I'm listening to their new album "I'm Waiting For The Time To Be Right" for the first time right now and I really like it.

I think a Minutemen or Billy Bragg show from 1984 is pretty historic, but I know what you're saying.

They have a few (thousand) concerts over on archive.org as well.

Shit. I'm sorry. He's a regular Jack Benny.

I'm admiring the box art right now.

sometime--maybe about age 47-48 a man's brain undergoes a change -- and one of the important changes results in the realization that you can never know everything and furthermore--maybe that's a good thing !! I figured that out long ago, and I'm over a decade away from being 47. What took you so lo...

Yeah, the people who drive taxis here are largely from East Asia, but many of them have moved on to more lucrative employment, like driving trucks. More and more you see old, semi-retired white guys picking up fares. You need a job, Wolfman?

The Canadian border. We're starving for skilled labour here in Alberta. Hell, we can't even get enough people to drive cabs.
