Thought so, but I haven't gotten used to the various 'voices' on the boards yet.  'Cuz I was under the impression you were the resident anti-hipster down home boy.
 
 Only made worse by y'all changing your Board names in this thread!!

 I'd get your ears checked.   Grandaddy turned in the dullest album this side of Nada Surf.  Oh and SFA, but I mean shit, they've been off their game for a while.

Hipsters must seem anti-hipster, by definition.  Rhett plays the game very well.
 
 Where did Henry Dark go?

This coming from the person who said Stephen Malkmus sounds like the Smashing Pumpkins

 I

so Mjnova I bet you like the latest Radiohead, Blur and White Stripes too?
 
 You seem to have the complete opposite middle age rock tastes to me. I really like rings around the world, I think it is SFA's best.

Malkmus sounds just like Zwan, perhaps Zwan could sue....

Actually you might be correct there. I dont think I have been serious once in my life.
 
 But i think that is GGW's line. He is the one who looks like McEnroe.

why thank you for editing my post.  it's nice to know that i can take my music cues from a student at university of maryland, and someone who is obviously the paragon of music taste and knowledge.  nevertheless, i do find the new grandaddy to be quite good and interesting.  this album is quite a step up from "sophtware slump."

[twangirl]

not sure about albums yet, but my favorite shows so far, in random order, were:
 Mission of Burma
 Supersuckers w/ The Forty-Fives & Throw Rag
 Television
 The Mooney Suzuki
 The Soundtrack of Our Lives
 Joe Jackson
 Drive-By Truckers w/ Immortal Lee County Killers
 The Flaming Lips
 and, I have to admit, David Lee Roth

I should also add the free show Ricky Skaggs did at Towson Borders to my best show list.
