  1. They had non-existent album sales in the US and did well domestically in Canada. They should have been huge. It's sad. Ride Like Hell is a bonafide garage blues masterpiece.
  2. new Theme: Songs by bands that should have been huge but weren't 1. Spirit - Mr. Skin 2. 54-40 - One Gun 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. edit to clarify: it is the band, in your opinion, that should have been hugely successful but never seemed to get there
  3. Let's hope Luke Jackson finally can shake his injuries and gain some confidence.
  4. If you think Cole and Neale are bad, if TSN/CTV got the HNIC gig, do you think you could handle listening to the worst Canadian hockey broadcasting team: Joe Bowen and Harry Neale.

    Bonnaroo....

    My Morning Jacket and The Stooges. MMJ are in the studio, making their participation highly unlikely.
  6. Thanks! I get paid to multi-task, but it's an unforgiving business at times. Who cares? I love The Office.
  7. So much for the Raptors not being able to beat good teams. They are laying an ass-kicking on Denver tonight. I hope Bosh is ok.
  8. That is so damn true. I get so much more uncomfortable from David Brents actions than I do from Michael Scotts but a few recent episodes in the US version seem to indicate they may be starting to expose that side of his character. Which they do not do at all with Tim in the US version. Gareth fucking kills! Michael is definitely going for the cringe this season... and I love it. I believe you mean Jim in the US version and Dwight is the Gareth character. I actually like the Jim characer' date=' even though he looks exactly like Martin Freeman.

  9. The UK version is one of my favourite comedies in recent memory - same goes with Arrested Development. The US Office is good, but I don't like it nearly as much after watching most of this year and some from last season. Season I is unwatchable if you like the UK version. I must say that the UK Office comedy is an uneasy laugh where the US is just funny.
  10. After my stag last year I'd bet that my piss was still 80 proof.
  11. This makes the mammoth and ill-advised new Liberal-endorsed hyro plant being built on Toronto's waterfront all the more pathetic and infuriating.
  12. So he says. Rematch?
  13. Great report. I have a feeling The Stooges ticket was impossible to get. I would have sold Chameleon's first born to get that ticket.
  14. I really like the Brent Dead years. His musical contributions and band chemistry helped anchor and fuel the Dead's latter career renaissance, similar to what Warren Haynes and Allen Woody instilled in the rebirh of the Allmans in the late 80's.
  15. I remember sports writer and TV media types writing off Joe in the first two months of the season as a Hart candidate. This isn't the same man who fought Giggles in the minors. Joe is a notorious slow starter. Look out Sindy indeed.

    American Idol

    yes and simons cute remarks' date=' all set up anyway lost interest when simon said the sort of handicapp las shold live in the woods because of the way he looked like some animal or something like that very heartless and was not called for [/quote'] I kinda laughed at that in an Office sort of uncomfortable way only because the kid was convinced, like all the other rejects, that he should win.
  17. I believe this rather fresh Smoking Gun report answers your quesion: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/years/2007/0319071winehouse1.html
  18. Actually, C'Mon and Superstack play out of Toronto, so a Hamilton gig wouldn't be a big trip. Hey Whitey, what about Simply Saucer, a band Booche would fucking eat up.
  19. Their first album came out in 1968 and remains their most famous. Most people know their monster hit remake of Eddie Cochran's Summertime Blues. Here's a video of the song. This band helped put Acid Rock on the market: http://youtube.com/watch?v=t-kFe4l_W30

    American Idol

    I have no idea. And that fucking smile needs to be physically removed.
  21. Superstack would be suitable too.
  22. I actually prefer Blue Cheer's version of Summertime Blues over the overrated live Who version from Live At Leeds.
  23. Peter Green from Fleetwood Mac fits that description. Now he's finally mentally fit, if not in need of a diet.
  24. Try to get C'Mon to open.

    What is Jazz?

    Jazz is far older than rock... but I think rock does have close to as many. It's just that some categories are small or sub-genres.
