He was certainly talented and was a key member involved in their rise away from being the second best alt-country band to form from Uncle Tupelo, but for my own tastes, I preferred Wilco without him. I like their first album (when they were actually alt-country) and their work with Nels Cline. The Bennett years were way too poppy, Beach Boys-ish melodic for me. Shame that such a talented guy died so young though.
I agree with what you say about the use of his voice on the new one, but there was nothing wrong with Modern Times either. The new one is a different sound than his last few, mainly due to the excellent guitar playing of Mike Campbell, and the accordion, but I think it fits in nicely with Love and Theft and Modern Times.
Sorry if it offends, but I'm glad it's gone. I wish they would take it off syndication too; I completely hate that show, especially that curly-haired weiner who makes all the faces. I can't even stand it when I happen to land on when I'm changing channels.
why do they start the season so early? I love baseball, but the season is just too long. It shouldn't start until late April or even May. It's snowing here today, also in Chicago, I think Cincinnati is also getting snow.....just dump the foolish interleague games and cut the season down a bit and it would be almost perfect!
Aw man, don't be. I mean, I dig and respect Brian, but hell, sometimes you just gotta call him on his bullshit, just so he knows that you know, if you know what I mean
That's his name?
I reiterate....
Manga is an extremely popular form of Japanese comics that took off
in Japan just after WWII and caught on in America around the early 80's.

huh. Guess I missed that trend, as I've never heard of it or noticed it's popularity. But if that is what Borders is turning to instead of CDs, then I'm getting off the bus now.
Still getting the Ann Arbor News here every day.
Looks like I spoke too soon. Unbelievable. The home of the University of Michigan without a daily newspaper. I'm stunned.
happened to me 3 times, the last two within 10 days of each other and on different cards. i never could figure out how they got these card numbers since I barely used one and the other i used on reputable web sites. the rep at the card company said maybe when i handed it over for a bill at a restaurant, perhaps, but it was never out of my sight.
