  1. Art Briles won 2 Big 12 titles with those dudes

  3. Very cool writeup, thanks for posting. I love that bus clip PJ20 where they’re working out that song. Another interesting fact about Daughter is that it ends with “the shades go down..” as in, the shades are being shut and some bad stuff is about to happen. At the end of Rearviewmirror, a song about getting in a car and getting away from something, the lyric is “finally the shades are raised”
  4. Supposedly, the story with this is McCready checked himself into a hospital for exhaustion immediately after this show. It was the last show of the tour. It was step one of his long journey to sobriety.
  5. Supposedly, Rickman crushed it so hard in some scenes, the studio decided to delete them from the final cut to protect their golden boy leading man from being upstaged. Test audiences walked away calling it a Rickman movie. The director was so mad about this, the studio had to lock him out of the edit suite to finish the movie. In Costner's defense, he was on the set of Robin Hood in England just days after wrapping up a years long passion project in Dances With Wolves. It was a fast shoot that saw Costner in New Orleans just ten weeks later to start filming JFK. Robin Hood's production was a tiny blip sandwiched between two of the biggest projects of his career.
  6. He's mentioned before that he started drinking red wine on stage because how much he liked how it coated and numbed his throat for singing.
  7. The Netherlands, I think
  8. This is pretty cool
  9. I think he’s lived a little harder than most and he’s almost 60. Seems to be in good health and still a very active surfer and whatever, but hard to visually hide decades of heavy smoking and drinking. He kinda already had the puffy face thing in the early 90’s MTV era interviews, too. Jeff, Stone, and Matt look great for their age. McCready looks like the last 20+ years of sobriety have treated him well, too.
  10. The stool from ACL years ago made an appearance in that Apple interview 😍 seems like it’s become a permanent item in their awesome clubhouse thing they have
  11. If your memory of Real Genius is that it's a great film or some cinematic achievement, you'll definitely be disappointed on a revisit, but it absolutely holds up as a funny 80's college campus comedy. I think it's aged well because it's not very gimmicky and has legitimately good performances from Val Kilmer and William Atherton. Atherton was a legendary 80's wet blanket villain and his chemistry with Kilmer is hilarious to watch decades later. It's been said that Kilmer is a character actor stuck in a leading man's body, but he's genuinely great as the clear lead in Real Genius. Awesome 80's montage sequences too, including the Tears For Fears popcorn ending.
  12. I caught the two Brooklyn shows that tour. The first night had two openers, starting with Pendulum then seamlessly shifting to Release. So good.... I've seen them 13 times, 15 if you count a couple EV solo shows in 2012. The Wrigley show in 2016 was a very memorable experience/weekend, but I much prefer to see them in an arena.
  13. No Code walked….. so Yield could run. I love that album.
  14. Don’t sleep on Jimmy Reno. He used to fuck guys in prison.
  15. Nope. There’s a lot more of this stuff going on behind the scenes. What’s infuriating is that Feigen left her last school district in Arizona in almost this exact fashion and is the leading candidate to take the same role in a third state.
  16. We live in Humble ISD, daughter is in 7th grade. Feigan is an embarrassment that was hired despite having an already terrible reputation. We only have five more years left, we’ll make it, but the district’s leadership is a constant source of annoyance for everyone.
  17. Propane’s a hell of a drug. RPReplay_Final1713408070.mov
