  1. I'm so far behind on Miles Davis boxed sets ... this and the complete Jack Johnson are the ones I lust for the most.
  2. Sorry, Kev. I wasn't thinking.

  4. The show has been off the air for 14 years, it's spoil date has passed . By the way, Rosebud is the sled.
  5. Removed for the sake of anyone who hasn't seen the post already by an idiot who doesn't know how to do spoilers.
  6. That's the thing ... since when has Clinton ever been the most interesting thing about a P-Funk show? It's like going to the circus and complaining you don't see enough of the ringmaster As I said, when I saw them it was hella fun, although granted other shows I've seen on DVD or heard have been more packed with musical highlights.
  7. I saw them live and dug them fine ... maybe not at the level of the classic lineups, but still a lot of fun.
  8. You should check out the installment in the MArtin Scorcese Blues documentary dedicated to the British blues boom (directed by Mike Figgis I believe) ... Tom Jones jams on old blues tunes along with Jeff Beck, Van Morrison and others and his singing just kills.
  9. Nobody with more than half a working brain would ever say that ...
  10. My favorite line from the first season is still : "This is even worse than the time we did that Gilber & Sullivan sketch." (You would need to have wasted your time watching the first few episodes of Studio 60 like I did to get that joke.)
  11. Another non-word that annoys me ... "disorientated".
  12. believe it or not' date=' that's actually not an incorrect pronunciation. a lot of professors and researchers with phd's say it that way and its not at all uncommon within the scientific community. its said to flow from words like molecular. [/quote'] Except is doesn't flow from the word "molecular" , which derives from "molecule". It derives from "nucleus", not "nuculus".
  13. And the one that keeps cropping up on C-Span and said by the head of state of our friends to the south ... "nucular".
  14. "Youse". Also people who spell the word "masterbate". And people who say "justify" when they mean "rationalize".
  15. Devon is a friend of mine, hope he and everyone else are alright.
  16. #327 - Six Degrees of Separation Connect your pick to the one above you in six steps or less, via sit-ins, guest appearances, shared bills, or any other reasonable connection.

  22. i have a feeling this one will be completed quickly. we seem to be better with very specific themes than with wide-open ones. the "pick a song' date=' any song" sorta ones seem to challenge us. [/quote'] Remind me never to underestimate you guys again.
  23. Checked using the same source, and it is the name of a song that is on the b-side of the She Don't Want Nobody Near single, so it is an actual song name. and here is is
  24. 321: Songs with months of the year in the title, in calendar order Special rules : 1) You can pick any month that hasn't already been used, so long as you put it in the right spot. In other words, the next pick doesn't have to be February, but if the next pick is June, it has to be put in at spot #6 2) If the title has a word that is the same as a month but isn't being used as a month in the title's context (eg. May, March, etc.), it is allowable 1. Hunters & Collectors - January Rain 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. Bets on this being a thread killer?
