deanokat — Sun, 27 May 2012 21:51:24 GMT

A friend of mine has a new book about Ryan Adams and Whiskeytown coming out in September. It's called Ryan Adams: Losering, A Story of Whiskeytown and it's being published by University of Texas Press. Here's a link to the book's page on the UT Press website. There you'll find more information about the book, including the Table of Contents and an excerpt.

Let me be the first to say it...I think.

I now speculate that the repeating setlists on the most recent touring were for filming a concert DVD compilation of live footage, similar to the Jeff Tweedy Solo Acoustic DVD.

You heard it here first.

Okay, tour's over.

Anyone want to bet how soon wolfhunter will return to RAA? Do you think he will return there? I thought he seemed to be having fun last time.
Wait, has he returned since the 'internet crazies' incident? I guess my memory is a little hazy.

Do you think he'll begin a new project? Start a family? All speculation welcome.

I'm gonna lose this bet and go with something crazy. I say he'll start acting. Then he will have covered pretty much every medium of art, right?

Sugar - Discography Reissue on Merge (July 24)

:banana:upyours:guitarsolo (if there were a "fap" emoticon, I'd put it here... I'd use The Jack-O-emoticon but this is no wank...)

Having the Sugar catalog with really loud mastering seems both appropriate and necessary. I rarely pick up reissues, but these... yup.

Those B sides are mostly gems too. Plus one full live gig I haven't heard from the Copper Blue era.

Man, between the auto bio, the Copper Blue shows, the big tribute gig, and signing to Merge.... he's ramping it up for guys in his 50s.

Thread worthy.

It's totally OK to listen to Cracked Rear View and Fairweather Johnson again.

female hotties thread?

when was the last time we did this?

Saw my first JTE concert last night

RAfan121212 — Fri, 18 May 2012 16:36:13 GMT

Very disapointed. Far worse than any of the 15 RA shows I've seen. Even with repeat setlists..

No one seemed to care, the band was lifeless. The guitar player was awful, never played riffs at the proper times and constantly screwed things up. I don't think JTE looked at him once the entire show.

Rest in peace, Donna.

She was a class act.

The MEXICAN Drug Wars

JackStark211 — Mon, 14 May 2012 15:59:46 GMT

This is a great website for anyone that wants to keep up with the full coverage of what is going on with the drug trade in Mexico. Some bloody shit that the media does not often cover. Sucks. I remember being in high school and day tripping down to Mexico for food, drinks, and gifts. Now I wouldn't do it for money it's become so dangerous. I really wish this country would put more focus on this issue. Being down here in Texas you really get to hear some fucked up shit.
