  1. Hermanos Gutierrez is also amazing. When I saw them last summer I could see that every woman in the venue was ready to get it on. Pure sexy time music.
  2. If you've finished The Stone Roses album try the Moon album by Motrik. Its pretty fucking good. The band all came out it black jumpsuits with red light glasses.
  3. my favorite out of that scene is The Charlatans UK. I got kicked out of the Black Angels/Daiistar show here in Portland a few months ago. I was an idiot and polished off the last of a cider as I walked in the door and threw away the empty can. Door guy was like, "we can't let you in. You're not allowed to bring an alcoholic beverage into the venue." I pled my case. "I walked in and threw the can away." No dice. He was on a power trip and wanted to be a dick. Seems like most door guys would have been like "you can't bring that in here. Don't do it again." Prick. My gf stayed for the show (and loved Daiistar) and I bounced to see The Mystery Lights and another venue.
  4. I don't know the answer to that question. I wish I had seen the Stone Roses after their first album came out. One of my favorite of all time. Gonna go put it on now. Thanks for reminding me.
  5. I had a great weekend of live music. A friend of mine recommended a show on Friday and I'm so glad he did. Both the headliner and opener were f'n awesome. Serpentfoot opened. I immediately noticed that they were heavily influenced by the Osees. So I was in - big time. By the end of their set the room was bouncing. Then Motrik hit the stage. They were blasting fog through traffic cones - apparently an homage to Devo. Hell Yes! Then we got an hour of heavy driven bass led krautrock. So good. Saturday night was a night of excellent psych rock. Elephant Stone was the headliner. I had seen them a few years before but this was by far the better performance. Amazing performance. The openers were Meteorite #4 and Sun Atom. Both were excellent but I really liked Sun Atom. They pulled me out of the bar area to the front of the stage with their music. I loved the whole night. I was also fortunate enough to grab posters for both shows to put up in my Barage.
  6. How disappointing. Plenty of rub'n'tugs around. Go to one of those.
  7. @Prepuce of Doom This feels like a future Doomlet test.
  8. Beautifully written, Brisket. Thank you for sharing. I have tears in my eyes knowing that I'll be feeling this soon. It won't be too long before my father passes, too.
  9. There was a picture posted a few weeks ago of Alfred Collins standing next to Justus Terry. The difference in size was pretty substantial. Terry might play some snaps but he's got some growing to do before he really starts making noise on the line.
  10. Elephant Stone on Saturday @ The Get Down in Portland. Might be my favorite venue in Portland since The Doug Fir closed last year.
  11. I loved Catherine Rampell's challenge to Scott Jennings for downplaying the Nazi salute in the video posted above. "Why don't you do it on the air right now?" Did he? No, because he's a chickenshit. Anyone that tries to downplay or explain away Musk's nazi salute should face the same challenge. "Why don't you do it right now?" Capture that shit with your phone. Cowards won't do it.
  12. Saw Death From Above 1979 last night in Portland. Awesome show! The music was tight but they were loose, relaxed, and fun. Opener was a band out of SF called Spiritual Cramp. They had a couple of decent songs but overall- meh.
  13. I guess I was picturing something more like this - I would still like to see video of the actual transition from floor to countertop though. Good for a few laughs.
  14. Johntay needs to get his shit together or he'll go pro in something other than freedom.
  15. Can you post video evidence of a basset hound getting up on the counter?
  16. Huge fan of Calvin & Hobbes. In fact, I have one of the books by my shitter. I'm curious how @Willfully Horn came across a 10 year old blog and has Watterson done anything since?
  17. The comma musta thrown me off.
  18. How did you arrive at that number? 55.479 per day.
  19. As far as thread derails go - I could get behind this one.
  20. Gonna see Spoon Benders on NYE here in Portland. They're a local punk band. Should make for an interesting NYE.
  21. Took Willow out for a hike this weekend. It was a slop fest but that's her happy place.
