Better in what way? It all comes down to personal taste, so it's impossible to say who is better. Now for MY tastes, Radiohead is better. Ten years from now, no one will talk about Arcade Fire, make that 5 years from now.

Try bookingbuddy.com. It makes searching a lot faster. Just put in your specs and it searches a bunch of travel sites for you.

QUOTE(MSHAWKS @ Feb 26, 2007 -> 04:48 AM) How does an average actor like Forrest Whitaker win an Oscar, yet a legend like Peter O'Toole never does? Agree with you on Raging Bull and Goodfellas over Ordinary People and Dances With Wolves, but I liked Braveheart better than Casino in 1995. Timing has a lot to do with it. Although he is very good in the role, the competition for Whitaker was not very tough this year. It's also not a lifetime achievement award.

Forest Whitaker won best actor, that's pretty cool.

Most of these arrests occured in the same areas, Near 47th and Cicero and then further north near Armitage and Cicero. IIRC those areas were for years always crawling with hookers. How hard is it really to clamp down in those areas and scatter all the prostitutes??

OMG, I missed this. He was always in the shadows of Bird and McHale, but he made that squad GO.

QUOTE(bmags @ Feb 24, 2007 -> 07:51 PM) well, i mean like them or not, them and the strokes have defined the 00's sound as far as the music i listen to. Everyone wants to be the arcade fire now, and they've had some real kickass songs i think. ....speaking of The Strokes, Casablancas, Trent Reznor and Mark Lanegan will be on the next QOTSA disc. Here is a um preview, note the 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' riff. I hope they're up to something big.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 24, 2007 -> 11:37 PM) I fear it will be overdone. Miami 911 is jsut like the show...some hillarious parts...lots of absolutely stupid parts. My recommendation is to wait to rent it. I thought I heard '300' will be playing at I-Max theaters as well. Man, talk about a treat for the eyes.

QUOTE(bmags @ Feb 24, 2007 -> 05:20 PM) i love em. And i've stopped saying 'hype' with indie bands because i realized the hype is for like .9% of americans. Hype would be better designated for chinese democracy What if 99% of that .9% are hyped over it?

By the way, I believe Arcade Fire is the muscial guest on SNL tonight. I don't understand the hypeat all, but if you like em', go nuts.

Just added, Sat. June 23rd, Dodger Stadium, The Police with opening act, none other than.... The Fighters Of Foo . Two days before my B-day, I'm GEEKED......now I just have to bend over for tickets.

Ok, I'll say it, when the Cubs are having a bad season, yeah Wrigley is a beer garden. BUT when the Cubs are playing well, it is an intense place to watch a game. The fans sit on every pitch, every game. I can't say the same for the Cell. Sorry.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 24, 2007 -> 12:44 AM) That would be awesome if it were against the Yankees. Is that game in NY? It's going to be a fun season following him. The media coverage is gonna be interesting. Every station around the country and probably other parts of the world is gonna cut to his at bats once he's within one HR of breaking the record.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Feb 23, 2007 -> 01:52 PM) Yeah, he is kind of typecast, but I think it's because he does it so damn well, and is always so likeable. I've never seen that documentary. The other night I finally saw a movie most people are shocked to hear I have never seen. I finally saw The Goonies. It was a decent movie, and my daughter loved it, but I don't feel like I have missed out on anything. Heard of it, but I've never seen it either

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Feb 23, 2007 -> 08:39 AM) Why are we asking if he has ever played an American? I like Hugh, always have. I used ti like Barrymore. Now I pretty much can't stand her. But...as much as I hate to say it...I kind of want to see that movie. I can wait until DVD though. It is just an observation about Grant, that's all. To me, he seems like the same guy in every film, kinda typecast. Has anyone seen that documentary about a guy trying to get a date with Drew Barrymore?

Has Hugh Grant ever played an American in a film?

Two thoughts: I thought he hit the ground, so I'm not as impressed. Are there any bar owners or bartenders who aren't active or recovering alcoholics?

If he has more court dates coming up, he must not be 100% in the clear yet. right?

That's funny, celeb news take over newscasts. She's gonna have a moment of clarity sometime and think; Oh my God, I SHAVED MY HEAD!

Next time, get a b**** dog and name her after your least favorite ex girlfriend. Mine was 'Bridget'.

QUOTE(MHizzle85 @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 12:03 PM) I'd say go to the apple website and try some of the troubleshooting tips if you haven't already. I had a friend who's ipod did the same thing and after using some of the suggestions on the site it came back on. Yeah, step #1 is to hook it up to the laptop...and mine is not reading that the device has been hooked up. How do I reset it??

QUOTE(knightni @ Feb 20, 2007 -> 10:57 PM) The Van Halen brothers are jerks and DLR is an asshole. They'll never get back together. true true and THANK GOD!

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 11:41 AM) It's not like anybody ever sings the praises of major labels ya know. They all suck, and she is the "artist". The labels are also the badguys, we all know that. I blame the general public too. If it continues to buy crap, don't blame the labels for signing crap and selling crap or the artists for making crap. And..um, crap.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 11:39 AM) Have you called tech support yet? That's usually a 45 minuute phone call that results in them telling me to take it into a center. I seem to recall a thread on I Pod issues, so I thought I'd try here 1st.
