Just Announced Commentary

The Police are one huge waste of time. Morrissey on the other hand… I'm thinking tickets will be around $50?

wolftrap IS metro accessible…there's a very reliable bus that runs from West Falls Church metro to the Trap on show nights

Typically, lawn seats are cheaper than that. And the lawn at Wolftrap is much more fun that the seats anyway.

It is wearing a bit thin. We know, we know: you're having a kid. Your wife is not the first woman to ever have a baby.

Don't you know? He's Adam, she's Eve….

Someday maybe you'll find a man who wants to have a baby with you. Then again, probably not.

would a week day wolf trap show end early enough that i could catch the red line even if i stay till the end?

Check the schedule of shows - when the time is right just cut that sucker out.

I did, I said no, he wasn't good enough. And yet not nearly as annoying as you. I'm LUCKY lucky lucky!!!

Have they pulled off one of the planned All Tomorrows Parties festivals they keep talking about bring to the US? now thats my kinda of festival…

Charlie, that was WAY out of line and completely incomprehensible since Bags is a fantastic, warm, wonderful person. I think an apology is in order.

I think you are wrong. She is the one who has repeatedly insulted me (with the same repeated insult), and I finally felt goaded into a response. If anyone is owed an apology, it is me. Though I certainly don't expect one. Thanks for your opinion though.

I am excited that I have a child on the way. It's by far the single most important thing in my life right now. Yes, it does influence every decision I make, including what concerts I can go to. And thus, I should be able to express my joy, as well as my thoughts regarding the massive effects that having a child will have on my life, without being mocked and derided. Just like someone who blathers on about how important V-fest is to their lives doesn't deserve to get mocked or derided.

Her REPEATED jabs on this topic reek of jealousy and immaturity.

You tell 'em!

A child IS a choice!

My last comments on the issue.

- I did not mock or deride you. I said you were annoying with the constant references (note I didn't even say you're an annoying person, but that the constant baby references are annoying). I think that's not quite as mean as you insinuate, but if you believe I was actually nasty, I apologize. I'm not a nasty person. Nor immature and absolutely positively not jealous. I've got a niece on the way (ineveitably within weeks of your progeny), my first, and I think that's absolutely perfect. Somehow haven't mentioned it yet, even though it's HUGE in our family and I will likely be missing many many shows (and I actually see many many shows) to see and take care of her.

- I do lose patience sometimes, and you've got a special knack.

- The constant references are quite annoying and out of place – this is a music board, and yet you bring up at what stage of gestation your child is or how old it will be nearly constantly – for shows you don't give a shit about. Just more chances to mention the baby.

- Many of the longest standing board members have kids, mention them occasionally – we love to hear about them, especially the birth announcements. But they discuss other things, mostly music, on the board. Yes, it's a phenomenal event in a life. Does a board of music fans need to hear about EVERY show you can't make because of the one week old, the month old, the 7 month pregnant wife, the 8 month pregnant wife….? You don't even go to many shows 'pre baby Rhett'.

- Try this. I think you need an outlet.

- It's true, my fault. After a couple years of just ignoring your rants and incendiary comments, you got me. I gave you the attention from strangers you appear to so badly need. Won't comment again.
- Sorry to the rest of the board as well for bringing a 'feud' that we haven't seen much of late.

And now, Lollapolooza or V-fest?!?!?!?!

Word.

Dude, videotape the birth. I'm sure O'Mankie will watch it! :D

This is kinda fun, doing your best to not 'comment' on the JA thread. So, in doing –

I'm bummed I'm going to miss the Peter Bjorn and John show. They got great buzz at SxSW. I tried to fit them in, but their venue was too far from where I was before and wanted to be after. Their show certainly comes highly recommended by many hardcore music fans, though…

PS, thanks Kurosawa. It's been ages!! Big important jobs must be taking you away from the 'scene' a bit!! Hope to see you soon…. After few shows for about 6 months, looks like I've got a lot coming up.
