I like “Turtleneck” but every time I hear it or think about it now, I laugh about how it was Noah Hawley’s idea of a punk-rock needle drop in an episode of Legion.

The other night I had “Dark Side of the Gym” pop up on shuffle while I was driving and I thought, for probably the 30th time, “damn this album rules.”

Here are some Truckers opinions: -The RSD “bootleg” from last year is the best live DBT release I’ve encountered, by a significant margin. -I admit that I haven’t spent a lot of time with the pre-Southern Rock Opera records, but setting those aside: Dirty South is their best album. Unraveling...

Anyone heard anything about whether they’re going to go forward with the US summer dates with S/K?

For me, the fact that JW is so high energy is part of the problem with the mix - when you can’t hear the crowd noise to match his energy it sounds real weird.

Land the stylus on the fat side of the lead-in and it plays the SNL track. If you can land it on the other side it plays JW guesting on “New York City Cops” at Radio City in ‘02.

Did anyone else get a 7” that’s pressed hilariously off-center, with pretty much no lead-in on one whole side? I’ve never seen anything like it before; trying to land the stylus (especially on the 45 rpm B side) is terrifying. Also, while the recording isn’t pristine by any means, it’s kind of...

Just did side A last night before going to sleep - didn’t detect any pressing issues but everything bad people have said about the source is correct. How does the recording quality here compare to the Bonnaroo vault? I’ve always had an eye out for that set, but figured this one would be a good...

Got mine today finally - haven’t spun it yet but in adding it to discogs I see that copies opened and spun once are listed in the $60-65 range...not a good sign.

Going to be very strange to live in a world where Ten Club members are no longer constantly complaining about the missing singles.

The fantasy basketball league I play in is the only roto league I do, and I agree with everything said here re: the advantages of head to head. However, the one year I finished second by a point (chasing down the champ who, as it seems happened here and seems to happen pretty much every year...

I once saw The Roots open for Dave Matthews Band. That was a long goddamn time ago. RTJ opening for Jack White was also unexpected but the Roots/DMB one is definitely weirder.

I also got movement for the first time this morning (ETA Tuesday), which at this point was kind of a disappointment insofar as it eliminated the possibility of it just showing up without updated tracking.

Real glad I bumped this thread...

Still at “label created”...

OK, they got me - just reupped my partial season Knicks plan for next season.

I also had Cooperstown tix, and I’m embarrassed to say that a year ago I had hope that it would be my first show back. The thought of going up to Cooperstown with some friends, camping or staying in some B&B, and seeing The National at the Ommegang brewery sounded like a heaven that I definitely...

My wife and I made it to two Euro shows (Rome and Prague) in 2018; we picked those shows because there was a break in between so we spent 5-6 days in each city. A truly great decision, not just because it was a wonderful trip but because if we hadn’t done it, I’d be working on 5 years since my...
