So, while you get "cool kid" points for making the Blackcat show…realize that not everyone can be as cool (some of us were on their honeymoon…). Asshat.

asshat…what a great word! that's up there with dicklick and ayatollah assaholah (my personal favorite)

Am I the only one that can't really get into this album? It's not bad at all, but not great either.

I find Arcade Fire to be pretty boring.

I think you're also missing the fact that if they weren't popular and you were the only person at the show, they wouldn't be playing anywhere.

People like good music.

Get the fuck over it.

Don't worry, I'm sure he yells at his neighbors for gentrifying the city.

How was that Kasabian show?

I hadn't heard of them yet. Don't worry, you can stand in the front and proudly proclaim in front of everyone that you knew about them before anyone else did.

Excuse me, but Isn't that what everyone on this board does? I knew the Ramones before they got big, I knew Nirvana before they sold out, we knew all these cool indie/alternative bands before WHFS started playing them and now they are not so cool anymore….and so on, and so on, and so on….

Without the scumbag comments of course. :)

I dont think so. sorry you feel that way.

if you really think we all act like that, why are you here?

I'm happy to say that I got into Oasis from way back then and love them more with every passing day…

it is sad that rob feels that way…i don't think we're like that either. unfortunately, rhett just recently started a pissing contest over on the wilco thread that tends to support rob's assertion.

maybe Rob would like the board better if everytime someone voiced an opinion, everyone replied with. "i disagree, but i see your point."

would be kinda boring tho

Rob's role on the board here is to point out what he perceives as our hypocrisy, and he is good at it

All I said was that the 1995 Wilco show was, to me, a much better rock and roll show than the 2005 incarnation of Wilco. If you choose to argue my point, you are the one (not me) starting a "pissing contest" if you want to call it that. I generally think of such exchanges as "discussions".

Yeah, and right now the Red Sox are still ranked ahead of the Yankees in pre season polls. :mad:

please refer to them as the "World Series Champion Boston Red Sox" from now on.


thanks

Sonic…I am now a fan of you! Anyone who is a Sox fan is good in my book. Rob I wait with glee for the day that Randy "what I am only 400 years old" Johnson's arm falls off. My wife is a freaking Yankmee fan as well and she did not speak to me for a week after the GREATEST C-H-O-K-E of our lifetime.

Pitchers and Catchers report one month from today!!! :D

actually, rhett, you said something like…"i paid $8 to see wilco in 19-something-and-five and i'm sure it was a lot better than the bloated $30 show you'll see in february". i didn't even bother respond to that particular post. only when you started squealing about the list of "other" bands you're interested in seeing did i decide to poke fun. 'tis you my man who began the pissing contest with your 'i'm so over that band' attitude.
