Re: “Tonight: Free Energy at the Bell House”
Oh shit, you're right. God, that one record was so good. And I actually just got the Free Energy full-length in the mail this morning, so I'm gonna listen to that now too. Perhaps I will report back later.
Re: “Taylor Swift Does Saturday Night Live, Kanye Does Not”
Yeah, you know, that one wasn't so bad either. And thanks for the tip.
Re: “Betty Draper and the Other Guy from 10 Things I Hate About You to Host SNL”
I will definitely do all that, in the exact order you suggested. Assuming, of course, I can listen to Fearless over and over the entire time.
Re: “Betty Draper and the Other Guy from 10 Things I Hate About You to Host SNL”
Not sure what you're doing, but I am, yes.
Re: “Notes on Game 2 of the World Series”
"I think the chance of a strike-out throw-out double play was way higher than a regular double play there."
I'd be with you under normal circumstances, but not with Posada behind the plate.
The umpiring was as bad as any I've seen in the whole post-season. Aside from the the two possibly botched double play calls (both of which were so close I can't complain about them too much), whoever did the plate was a mess on balls and strikes all night.
Re: “How Indie Rock Killed the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame”
"X, The Cure, Velvet Underground, Stooges, Cheap Trick."
My goodness, that is sad. I forgot the Velvets weren't in there. And I don't know how you can go REM and U2 but not the Cure. Blah.
Re: “How Indie Rock Killed the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame”
I meant no disrespect to either of them. They're both great -- but if we can't agree that one of the most famous rappers of all time and someone who identifies as the Queen of Disco are not, strictly speaking, rock and roll artists, then I'm not sure what to tell you. I'm with you on Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, but to call rap and disco sub-genres of rock and roll is just inaccurate. There should definitely be a place where the Beatles and LL Cool J can co-exist, but for that place to be called the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is mega lame.
And yes, Pavement and GBV should be in, whatever it's called.
