Kurt Cobain Montage Of Heck doc on HBO
(Preview)
what did you guys think of that Kurt C'Bain doc on HBO? I thought it was good but felt like I have to wonder if he really would be happy with his family giving access to his personal diaries, etc for the whole world to see them. I felt a little like I shouldn't be seeing this stuff, this is his personal stuff. I...

Wedding First Dance Songs
(Preview)
So I'm getting married in a bit (and by a bit I mean a year and a half after my future wife finishes getting her Masters degree in painting,) and as such I've been thinking about our First Dance song and all the other various things folks do at weddings. ANYWAY, it got me curious about what other people's fi...

Amazon recently added a Spotify-type streaming service to their Amazon Prime package, & I've been using the hell out of it. Listening to all kinds of stuff I might not have heard before. Anyone else in the same boat?

The "1.99 Bin"

Stumbled into this topic idea while posting on the off-topic board. Are there any records in your collection that you got for next to nothing? I ( and a lot of us, I think ) am old enough to remember the "el' cheapo" bin, where you could find all kinds of records dirt cheap. For me, these were usu...

I don't limit myself to stuff that was released in 2013. I post the 10 best things I HEARD in 2013. I don't see a reason to punish something just because I didn't h...

From 1994-ish until a few years back, I was a HUGE fan of the Supersuckers. Bought all the records, would see them live every time they came thru KC, he...
