hello Idlewild posse

[lily1]

i disagree. his latest album is pretty mediocre, but take a listen to his debut, a century's end. while perhaps not your music, i think you'll agree that lyrically and emotionally, he's talented.
 
 then again, maybe not.
 
 btw, david gray played in may 2001 and feb 2003, not spring 2002.

Lily, I don't think you understand.
 
 If Rhett says he's crap, then he's crap. End of story.

Markie will now have to go out and buy everything by the legendary Uncle Tupelo.

anyone notice that mogwai has been featured in sex and the city fairly often, late last season and also this season.

Alright, the handful of songs I've heard were crap, so admittedly I haven't heard every song he's ever recorded.
 
    My wife thinks he's crap too.

ah, well, to each their own. i love the guy, but if you don't, that just means one less person clamoring for a ticket when he tours. works for me!

[kosmo vinyl]

not sure what i'll be wearing, but kosmette will be carrying her red purse with monkee's single in it... i'll have copies of my "where the action is" mix cds of 60's garage and soul classics too

Ah, it's what makes the world go round.  I thought it was a splendid spring for shows.  And hell, just this week I've been to five.  
 
 Since March, the last time Fico thought there was a decent show, we're talking The Datsuns (the album blows, but they are great live), Soundtrack of our Lives, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Hot Hot Heat, Cursive, The Notwist, Cheap Trick, Ataris, Longwave, Fountains of Wayne, Pearl Jam w/ Buzzcocks, Guided by Voices, Raveonettes.  Not bad, and there were a bunch I coudn't make it to....Brendan Benson, Ash, The Oranges Band, Bob Mould at Fort Reno.
 
 Granted, not every show was a killer, but all were interesting and worth catching.
 
 So, it's all in the ear of the beholder, I do believe.  As you can glean from the Rhett Miller/Bob Pollard/scientist arguments over 'legends' and decent music.

Are these the kind of copies that I can have one of?

yes you can, will you be at the show tonight?  if it's not too late we may be in the back bar briefly.
 
  and the purse was designed to hold a 45 single on the outside.  right now it's got a Monkee's single because Kosmette digs them.  in the past she's put in a waxwing's single for instance.  it's a very kwel purse if ya ask me  :cool:

 The Datsuns - Horribly average
 Soundtrack of our Lives - Good
 Yeah Yeah Yeahs - utter shite, Hype and nothing else
 Hot Hot Heat, Cursive, The Notwist - Never listened to them
 Cheap Trick - Proper Power Pop
 Ataris - unkwon to me, aren't they mallpunk?
 Longwave, Fountains of Wayne - quite decent, not worth much getting bothered about..
 Pearl Jam w/ Buzzcocks - brilliant (being at Nissan didn't go)
 Guided by Voices - tiresome and average live
 Raveonettes - NME posterchilds, mediocre
 
 Brendan Benson, Ash, The Oranges Band, Bob Mould at Fort Reno. - Only know Ash which I'm upset about missing, the same for Jonny Marr

My band should be taking shape by early autumn, we are going to be the best band in DC by far.
