The very definition of being hip is listening to whatever you like and not giving a shit what others think...

Ok I lied..I'm actually listening to the Polyrythmics a killer afrofunk outfit with jazzy overtones.  But,I do often listen to ms. Musgraves when I having a lousy morning.

mark kozelek has become the most annoying person in music in 2014. his lyrics are already whiney enough to begin with, and now he's pouring it on with a bunch of pointless, entitled stage banter.

I think it's pretty funny he's getting all this attention. He has ALWAYS been cranky, bitter, and confrontational. Entitled? More than Kanye? Please. I think Mr. West takes the award for boring douche.

I saw PG in 2007 or 2008 at Univ of Maryland.

I saw him a few times too. I was surprised that he was not particularly tight on solo piano. I know he is a composer, but I expected that songs he wrote 30 years ago had many years of practice. In any case, I still prefer to see the composer playing than a "cover" artist, as we would say for rock music.

Classical composers are often not very good players of their own works. Mahler wrote some great symphonies but was considered a mediocre conductor of them. After all, much of what they write is for instruments that they themselves cannot play.

Can someone please explain why so many of you want to see the Replacements?  Is it for the nostalgia factor?  I watched their song on Fallon the other night, after a coworker raved on and on about it, and I found it to not be something I would pay money to witness live and barely made it through the one song.

I am not hating, I am just curious as to their (current) appeal.

Yes, absolutely. I never got to see them because I was too young and its a total "imagine what it would've been like to be there way back when" thing.

This doesn't preclude them from being really, really good, btw. (Not implying you're saying that, but lots of people want to paint it as an either-or.)
