QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jan 25, 2006 -> 01:23 PM) Jim D. comes off as arrogant quite often. I like the guy kind of (is he a "short person, BTW?), but he pisses me off at other times and uses "band or style. I wrote to him once and mentioned my (at the time) fave band Marillion. He slammed them by saying that they hadn't done anything worthwhile since their original vocalist had left. When in reality the band had just recently put out their most "critically" and fan praised album in their careers and had just finished a very successful US tour. He can be rude with no reason at times. The Stones though I am passing on. They are so far removed from what I believe RnR to being anymore. They may have once been the greatest (I will argue the case to a degree) RnR band ever, but they are no longer what it is about. They are a machine now and an act. I could never pay that much money for that. But for the fans who can afford it, I expect that the Stones deliver EXACTLY what the fans are hoping for. I can't imagine them actually being a disappointment to their fans. slams" to cover up his lack of knowledge at times, instead of just admitting he is unfamiliar with a band" A lot of people, not just critics do that about all art, not just music. They are either unfamilar with or don't understand it, so they take an extreme stance on it. They'll say they love it or hate it. Good point KG.

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Jan 25, 2006 -> 01:12 PM) Damn, and what does that say about his age group? I think that Sean Penn is incredibly dull, but maybe it's just me. He was okay in the 80s, I suppose. Nah, I don't think you're dull at all HHJ.

Anyone seeing The Stones on this leg of the tour? Jim D says stay home. http://www.suntimes.com/output/entertainme...r-stones25.html

where do I get my season tix? http://www.majorleaguelacrosse.com/news/?id=3219 I think the name is pretty kick ass.

Sean Penn is the most talented actor in his age group.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Jan 25, 2006 -> 11:10 AM) Getting back to the topic, I was thinking if I was to lecture on what "Classic Rock" was and try to explain why hundreds of millions of albums were sold of that genre, these would be, with maybe one or two changes, the albums I would play for people that never heard "classic rock". Mainstream, popular, selections. If you were trying to lecture on the best works, of the pinnacle of artistry, there are better examples. I think the guy made it clear that's the list he compiled.

QUOTE(CanOfCorn @ Jan 25, 2006 -> 11:25 AM) No offense, but that movie...SUCKED!!! *whispering* "Deceiver." PBTHTBTHTHTHTBTHTHTH... None taken, I didn't make the film. Besides, I commented on Penn's performance, not the film as a whole.

QUOTE(bmags @ Jan 25, 2006 -> 12:13 AM) :headshake kim gordon is sexy and you know it. I haven't seen her lately, but back in the day, HELL YEAH she was. She brought back the Marcia Brady super mini skirt dress.

His best work was in 'Deceiver" with Tim Roth, anyone seen it? RIP.

QUOTE(bmags @ Jan 24, 2006 -> 09:13 PM) its funny cause i think i have a large collection being that i have every sonic youth album/ep...and that's like 1/8 of the zappa catalogue Sonic Who??

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Jan 24, 2006 -> 12:13 AM) sounds like PR spin to me I knew you weren't calling me out. I have a cousin who was nominated for an Oscar and I try to steal his glory all the time Who cares, it's frickin Jared we're talking about. Actually, last I heard he's getting paid to speak to groups of young kids on health and weight issues. Sure he's making cash, but at least he seems to be using his experiences and fame for some good.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jan 24, 2006 -> 02:20 PM) Well I hope the rest of it is tasteful, because Ozzie just looks slutty in that plaid skirt. Oops, was that a personal attack? Not only a personal attack, but what if a slut should happen to join us here on Sox talk? How do you think that is gonna make her feel Kyle? Jeesus.

I'm surprised it's never happened before.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 08:39 PM) They do it sometimes by selecting the questions and questioners ahead of time. Sure, but if the questioner decides to ambush and ask something different at the last minute, there's not much anyone can do.

Expected back in May. Cheap, safe gamble, why not?

Where are all these pics of a drunk Orton?

QUOTE(Texsox @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 08:19 PM) I bet the person responsible for screening the questions has some explaining to do. There is really no way to keep that from happening.

I bet the Secret Service took her out back and gave her a beating.

QUOTE(sox4lifeinPA @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 11:00 AM) then what happened? It's 100% true he had his stomach stapled. I had a friend who went to U of I and bloomington and allegedly there's an apartment complex right next to the subway that Jared went to all the time because it was the closest thing to him to eat. I have a lot of 1st cousins that don't know jack about me, but if you have proof, then I will admit I heard wrong. I don't have any proof other than I worked with his cousin who said all the stories floating around are not true. Take it FWIW. By they way, I don't doubt that you were told those things, I'm not calling you a liar, but they are just rumors.

No better way to ask for an ass kicking. http://cgi.ebay.com/vintage-1982-GENESIS-a...bayphotohosting

QUOTE(bmags @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 03:05 PM) very good point...my brother saw one of reunion shows...he liked it ... although he said (much like the pixies reunion) that its kind of like watching the chuck e cheese animatronics on stage... and referring to losmediasblancos... i'm starting to feel maybe "classic rock" = english blues? I mean it seems most of the bands on there and on "classic rock" stations derived from that... in that case almost my whole list is not classic rock "...although he said (much like the pixies reunion) that its kind of like watching the chuck e cheese animatronics on stage..." LOL, I thought the same thing when I saw them.

QUOTE(bmags @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 02:24 PM) what fascinates me about the Velvet underground is that their popularity is probably 100x higher now than what they were when they broke up. As seen by VU in 87 outselling all 4 of their LPs combined i think it was another interesting thing i find is that Velvet Underground is a pretty common name to people, but most can't name a song by them due to them not really having a single. All tomorrow's parties probably being closest i'd imagine? but they are definitely one of the originators of alternative rock...them and the stooges IMO Yeah, talk about being ahead of your time. They seem to get rediscovered by every generation which is a good thing. Loouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Are they classic though? What is classic? Is it a style? Someone mentioned U2, I remember when U2 was considered alternative and underground. Does a certain amount of time need to pass before a record is considered a classic? Sorry to take the thread in another direction. Actually, I'm really not sorry :finger

Oh No No, it's TODAY!
