im sure Douchebag is, he loves rocking out at the Chicago Theater

Is there any music venue, restaurant, viewpoint of anything, grocery store that isn't shit on at this place?

Too late to have Spoon play there instead?

Anything that isn't an arena, Chicago Theatre, or Congress Theatre is ok in my book. House of Blues is on notice though.

It was a fantastic performance. i don't know their material that well, but they are really good live.

I've seen them live 3 times and they are really good. They are playing the Aragon in December which would be
an alright place to see them.

I should have said they were good live based on that performance. Never seen them. Loved the energy.

Have to disagree with you here Maestro.

Can't believe JORR hasn't lost his shit over this one.

That’s not very rock & roll of you, Bagels.

This is so choice:

Anyone listen to Tweedy's new album? I have a 4-hour drive this afternoon. Was thinking about using this as a soundtrack.

CAN is one of those bands whose name I've seen in countless music magazines since I was a kid.
Never heard any of their music until just this afternoon.
It's really fucking good, and WAY more accessible than I would've ever thought.
I give it a thumbs up.

Can is really damn good -- strong arguments can be made for Jaki Liebezeit being the best rock drummer of all time -- but I'm not sure I'd call Tago Mago accessible. I'm not sure I'd consider any 14-minute jam culminating in a homeless Japanese man screaming "I'M GONNA KILL YOU!!!!" over a 300-bpm drum machine "accessible." Ege Bamyasi and Future Days are much easier to digest.

That's a different cover than the one I'm familiar with, which has a head with a speech bubble made of the same swirly material as his brain so that he is "speaking his mind."
