Post 1 of 22
Well gang, its been a while........

What the hell is up the those damn Titans? I guess its nice cause i'm not missing anything when I sleep in on Sunday now...A great film: "Wonderland" by Micael Winterbottom who did "24 Hour Party People", this was his 1999 release, its fantastic and well worth tracking down...I was not impressed with Bright Eyes...Spoon played one of the best shows i've ever seen at the Earl last Friday...No War in Iraq!...for my money, gang, the best record of the year is still Yoshimi...The Exit/In sucked anyway...Guess how many emo bands there are in Murfreesboro! I Dare Ya!...Neuboy is gone and forgotten...is it Smyrna or Suh-Myrna?...if you haven't seen The Lone Official, you haven't seen greatness... I support Gore 2004...I don't care what anyone says, The Design is the best new Features song...isn't October the greatest month of the year?...Ok, so is Reese Witherspoon cool or a bitch in person? i've heard both. Of course, I don't really care...Sorry, Blue Sky Court is NOT the next cool venue...Glossary is very, very underappreciated (I want to join)...O'Reilly is a pompous bastard...I am a secret admirer of a particular blonde female who has been known to frequent Features shows (we've only officially met once)...Guido's is cool all of a sudden now, and i think that's great...What the hell is Scorcese thinking? I mean DiCaprio?...Still waiting for that Joe, Marc's Brother reunion...WRVU is pretty good but its been better...Does anyone care about baseball?...CNN is the only reason to watch TV...The New York Times is the only reason to read newspapers...Idaho Palace has been quiet lately. Ladies, you can take care of that...For my money, gang, Tower is the best place to rent movies....As always, L.A. Sucks...The Mellow Mushroom has good food but the service is to be desired...This month's most evil necessity: Mars Music...Possumpalooza: fantastic idea...Fuck Adams...for christs sakes, vote for Bredesen, Hilleary makes Dubya look like Einstein...The Vines? Couldn't care less...Until next time, Wes Anderson is god.........

Freakin' A! It's roadie! Welcome back! I haven't even seen you at shows lately. Are you that busy?

Titans suck, Vols suck, baseball's always sucked... but who cares? Hockey starts next week!

And I wasn't that interested in Glossary until I saw Sam Baker play with them. That raised their "cool points" with me.

How great it is that a message board legend such as Roadie can exist with 39 total posts, super. Idaho has disappointed of late for sure, not residents, just activities. Man, I wish I was blonde so Roadie's crush was on me.
An open frame in the 10th, I WAS ROBBED!

Roadie, there was more bullshit in that post than I've seen in one place in a long time. Gore in 2004? The Exit/In sucked? CNN? I do agree with the following:

No War in Iraq!
Me too. Check this out:

Former Sen. James Abourezk, who visited Iraq in mid-September, said today: "We've arrived at a very scary state in this country where people opposed to the administration are accused of not being patriotic. The real act of patriotism is not to fall into line behind a president who is desperately trying to get us into a war -- but to raise questions to save lives and our national morality."

Hey Roadie, I have a question. The last time you posted on this messageboard, did it have a "General" section for topics about the band and a "Misc" section for random ramblings? Just so you know... it does now.

welcom back.

in response to some of your rant....
i agree about the blue sky court. i was not a fan and it almost ruined a great features show for me. and that was aside from the chick that was charging us $4 for a fucking beer and the guy that was only charging us $3.
i have alot of love for bingham, but none for glossary...live. sorry.
i'm loving guido's. or maybe it's the blonde that resembles vincent gallo who frequents the place. it's no lie, i love boys.
wrvu would be ok if someone didn't think I Am The World Trade Center was good enough to play every fucking day. someone should tell them they suck. and someone should tell the chick in the band that her boyfriend is gay, really.
and CNN is great and not just because i'm now working for ted turner. guess how much bison meat i've eaten in the past month. way too much but it's ok, bison is better for you than any other meat. teddy jr told me it's the only animal that doesn't get cancer. fyi.

and roadie, dear, i gave the lucky guns another try. even with the absence of paul (don't touch me, boy), i was still disappointed. sorry.

WOW! That's weird, cause the blonde I was referring to also frequents guido's! You're not her, are you? I'm not a blond though...

Man, this is all going to come back and bite me in the ass, and i'll have no chance with this girl.

You know, I have noticed a lot of blondes at the shows lately. I'm sure I have seen her once or twice. If anyone wants to keep playing this match-making game, they can just email me. I have a photographic memory, and chances are that I have talked to whoever you are referring to. I am the messageboard socialite, after all. I am still waiting for the opportunity to meet a few more members of this board whose presence I haven't been graced with yet.

no

no offense, but i wouldn't be caught dead with blonde hair. yellow and associated colours are ug, at least on me.

i thought you knew who i was anyway. that may have been someone else.

Oh, that's not true. I have liked everyone that I have met (however briefly for some) thus far. I admit that I am quite a talker when I get started, so maybe that makes a difference.

And, you, TF...You aren't much of a social degenerate when meeting people. (At least that's the impression that I have always had.) Then again, maybe it's because I know you so well.
