  1. Sorry if already posted. But AUD is airing a neat special called “Bourbontuckty”. Nice cross section for newbies and for serious tasters.
  2. Is there any possibility of bringing back the Oilers name? Or was/is there some legalese bullshit that prevents that from happening?
  3. I don’t know if it was just an anomaly, but that Titans defense was fun to watch.
  4. Oh no worries. My observation was more about the marketing people. I appreciate the fact that you tasted it and have an opinion, AND you were willing to share it openly. That to me is far more valuable than some magazine writer or blog that may have a financial interest.
  5. Sort of a McDonald’s vs McDowells thing going with the #8 (vs #7), black label, Jack thing going. But fuck it, I’ll try it. If you think it hits like BT it can’t be bad.
  6. This was always the knock on Cousins. Not the INT as much as no one in the building believes he has the stones to bring the Vikings back.
  7. I’m not the type to feel I must “rank” any musician, or hold them to someone else’s standards. I loved Buddy, doing Buddy stuff, just as I loved Neil doing Neil stuff or Cozy Powell doing Cozy Powell stuff. They were all fucking wonderful, and enriched my life. I thank them for letting me in on a piece of their life. Double up....
  8. I love the Northwest. Travel there as much as I can. Live there? No fucking way.
  9. I would think, at least from a drinkers perspective, that it would be more fun than only scoring 10 points and losing.
  10. These fucking pictures made me buy one of these damn things. You guys should be in sales, and have a check on the way from the manufacturer.
  11. Your 1910 recommendation was spot on. Stuff is righteous.
  12. Pacino has played the same character his entire career. Sometimes it was perfect, sometimes not so much.
  13. Here is a generic review of Blanton’s. If you can taste all of this I’m fucking impressed.. taste profile is sweet, with notes of citrus and oak. The creamy vanilla nose is teased with caramel and butterscotch, all underscored by familiar baking spices such as clove, nutmeg, or cinnamon. I just opened up a bottle of Blanton’s (rick 35, 11/17) and the best I can taste is the oak, and I guess some type of spice. If I don’t add a drop of water I am unable to taste any sugar.. i guess what I’m tryng to rationalize is that why I don’t mind spending big money on a special bottle (Hell I have already done that). I would just like to know my dumb ass can tell the difference.
  14. I’m pretty new to the bourbon craze. But I have a question for you. When I try to taste the flavors of Weller, Stagg, etc. I find the only way I can actually taste things like sugars, charcoal, or fruits. Is to add just a little water. I understand it dilutes it, but it appears I am unable to differentiate any flavor without adding water. What is your method? I would like to educate myself on this so I can actually tell the difference in a blind test.
  15. I thought Culpepper was dead? I don’t think he would be able to participate.
  16. Every time I see this thread title I can’t help but think of Silver Bullet Band live: When you got a headacheA little headache powder will help you When you got a backacheGo down To John R. & Brush and a massage parlor will take care of you.
  17. I saw Frampton add a 3 or so minutes of some serious talent during “Do you feel like we do” around the time Comes Alive hit stores. We all arrived thinking we would hear talk box, fuzz tone (which we did) and some old Humble Pie riffs during that particular song. But his playing the break on the drums opposed to the talk box was actually more enjoyable for me. Probably the highlight of the entire show as it was so unexpected
  18. Thank you for posting that!
  19. Fucking solid. Well done amigo.
  20. This is difficult to find. I really want to try it.
  21. I would think how trends go, you are probably dead on. But, there are a lot of new players in the game that want their bottles. And many just want a special bottle sitting on their bar, and have no interest in opening it, which is a shame. So it may stretch out longer than 4 years.
  22. Because it is a difficult to explain if it fails.
