To be fair, they're only "from" there on paper. Only Will and the drummer were high school friends and used the same "band" name then in NH, but never released anything. The actual group who made all the music we've heard was formed and is from Austin. It's like calling U2 an English band because of Adam.



And I want a MC 900 ft. Jesus thread.

god damn, the lead singer is sooo-ooo ugly...

How ugly is he?

He's so ugly he looks like he fell out of the ugly tree and hit all the branches on the way down.

I watched the coolest thing on DVD last night. All You Need Is Love, a British documentary from the '70s on the history of the gamut of modern popular music.

The introduction alone was fascinating, and got me all a-twitter to watch the rest of it. It looks as if it's going to be fairly American centric, with jazz/country/blues, but considering the influence those forms had on rock, it shouldn't be a bad thing.

But it's going to look at everything from Tin Pan Alley, ragtime, musicals, country, you name it and claims to look at how the various forms influenced each other.

It just came out a few months ago:

Amazon.com: All You Need Is Love: Various Artists: Movies & TV

Ohhhhhh, that's pretty funny. I had Osmond kids living in the apt. under me through college, so the circle is complete!

Yeah, it is nice that U2 at least comes through now, but if I have to hear Bono talk about how great Orin Hatch is again.....

No. I don't like to rent films, because anything I enjoy I prefer to own. And usually can for only a few bucks more than a rental.

Well, don't worry. I'll continue to talk about their awesomeness (or lack thereof) nad you can live vicariously through me.
