Re: staples, for my skull?

They used like 50 staples when I had my hip replaced and the first time I looked at it it really freaked me out because I hadn't heard of surgical staples before.

Re: the song with the fattest groove ever.

True, but the poinciana groove wouldn't be what it is without Israel Crosby. Ahmad Jamal "Coast to Coast" compilation remastered on chess is FABULOUS.

Re: Classic recordings that are out of tune

Flute solo on California Dreamin' is still my favorite. I have to brace myself for it everytime it comes on the radio.

Re: If you like the Decemberists, read this.

I only got into them about a month ago, but the leader sure has a distinctive voice, both literally and figuratively.

What album would you get first?

My brother is a hard-core stoner and while rolling joints offered a drag to HL who ignored him. The minions took my brother aside and got him coked up in the room with HL and then le...

Re: Flaming Lips Photo Book

I love wayne, but the lips live were a big disappointment to me musically. Couldn't get with everything being played to a click track; drummer was there though

Liz Phair acoustic opening was great though.
