This is great! An all-time classic and a must own.

Booche, let's hope they are saving the DVD for the greatest New Year's show (I remember cameras. There has to be footage)

Deadly Snakes are in London Tonight. Should I check it out?

Freakshow - Bulletboys

Ugly Kid Joe

but the worst of the worst

This looks great but myself and my computer don't recognize the formats. How do you play this things?

Nice. Thanks for a little Sunday morning treat.

Wow, I missed this earlier in the week. My birthday show this year just switched from Phil to this!! WOOOOHOOOOO!

Wow! This one hits home for sure. When I was in Korea, I had a friend get chased by immigration into my apartment. They made the mistake of taking 5 minutes to go grab an officer to arrest her and she dumped all her stuff on me and ran into the mountains behind my apt. Actually I had two run-ins with immigration there. The second was over my band being an illegial second job.

As well, I was there during the IMF crisis in 1997-98. Trust me. If the climate is changing back to the anti way-guk-saram (or mi-guk) then it is going to be a rough ride. I got spit on in a subway during this time. And it was the complete opposite when I arrived. This sounds scary as I'd say 75% of teachers in the country teach privates and the like.

Be safe all you Canada-sarams!

This is not your mama's MMJ....

Having given it the full three listens, I'm willing to classify this as a success for the band. I worship "At Dawn" and "It Still Moves" but recognize that between that feeling for musicians to evolve and the replacement of two core members of the band with new guys, the sound was never going to go back to the sweet codiene paced country the boys have offered up before. I saw that Pitchfork was calling this MMJ's OK Computer. While the comparasion is little much, the sentiment rings somewhat true.

Personally, I like the record but feel that I'll still be reaching for the old ones to fill the corner of my musical soul as only they could. The new stuff should kill live.

Pllleeeeeeeeeeeease?

Can't find the mug shot but....

1. Find a hot Japanese girl

HAHAHAHA!

But seriously,

1. Finish my book, currently titled Local

2. Quit teaching for a year and travel with Diane

3. Quit teaching for a year and tour on my smash indie single

4. Guess I better record smash indie single first

5. Be somebody's daddy.

YES!!!!!

Woo hoo! I loved this show!

I care.

Sort of in the way you still care about a friend who used to be your best friend. But then he got into heavy drugs and stopped being as sharp as he used to be. Then began to push away other really good friends, who you know will never be the same again.

You care, but you can't be bothered to expend the energy to love anymore.

Here's mine.

The one, the only, five disc rotation returns althugh in this, the Ipod/digital listening age, I barely put anything in my home stereo anymore. Nonetheless, you know the rules.

Iron and Wine/Calexico - He Lays In Ruins - I worship this EP - what a great combo

Neil Young - Praire Wind - A great Neil album. Top shelf

Comes A Time/Jerry Tribute 9/24/05 - Jesus why not? Look at the guest list

Pearl Jam 9/12/05 - One of my top five shows of the yesr

-Antony and The Johnstons - I am a Bird Now - This guy's voice is simply one of a kind, addictive only getting better and better

Honourable mentions go to Sufjan Stevens- Illinoise, Bob Dylan Bootleg 1 1966, Spoon - Gimme Fiction, Sigur Ros - Takk

Esau, once again I bow to your superior wisdom and hard work. I have a Perfect Echo and it is great. Rev, hope he answered your questions.

Rodeo - I got your disc anytime. Maybe Saturday?

As for Praire Wind, it is so good upon multiple listens. Texture, thought, peace and calm. Worth it.

Nice! My girlfriend lives in Buffalo AND I just found out we have tickets to Leafs/Buffalo the next night. Who knew I could learn to love the Buff for a weekend?

You are telling me! Did you see the preview for next week too? Amy, ankle, ouch.

I decided to employ the "these people will never make it but usually somehow win these fucking shows" theory.

How many of you Rafe pickers wish you could take that one back after his "I have fallen and can't get up" routine. Wilderness guide my ass.

I got smoked in the head with the blunt side of an axe at 15. One more rotation however....

And the obvious, the whole thyroid cancer experience. But to quote Esau and the late Joe Strummer, I fought the lump and I won!See

Sunshine's post for further details as well.

TIME IS RUNNING OUT - 13 Contestants and counting

Who's in the for the 1 disc of music prize package?

Picks are flowing in. I am going to have to close this off by 7:00pm EST Thursday. To address those that perhaps want a sumplementary (sp) draft at the mid point, I'll reserve a decision until the such time as most if not all picks are eliminated from the first draft, in fairness. I will also, in fairness, send my picks by 7:00pm to Basher to ensure I have not cheated.

REMINDER:

All picks have to be in before 8:00pm Thursday.

NO, you may not have one more week. Dig the randomness and use the force.
