OT: Watcha Listenin' To? Part VII ["And his hair was perfect"]

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Holy shit, this album is ruthlessly efficient. I don’t think there’s a second of filler; it’s just 30 minutes of awesomeness.







Snail Mail.

I came across them a couple of months ago on the trail of some random dive into something I can't remember. Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good.

 

[Magua]

Yes. This is the way. And you didnt even in include the title track.

I can only link 3 songs.

F*** this album just does it for me.

Definitely in my Top 10 of the Year.

 

[Rebels57]

I come back to this so freaking often.

Arguably one of the top ~10 vocal ranges in pop music history. And a beautiful voice to boot. Very underrated in that regard.

Hadnt seen this yet. Thanks for sharing!

Did you put them in tiers?

 

[Rebels57]

Did you put them in tiers?

No but I will sometime between Christmas Day and New Years Day

From One Hand Clapping (1974)... which is a pretty damn good rockumentary itself.

Though ofc nothing on Get Back. What a series.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I finally gave in and did what I've always tried to avoid. I listened to a Rush album.

It was exactly what I imagined it would be. Oh well.

Was in Angers, France the other weekend. (one of my best friends, who I used to houseshare with, is from there and so became friends with all of her close friends as a result aha.)

My other really good friend from Angers little sister showed me this. Somehow never heard it before.

My wife starts bouncing and singing when this song comes on the radio. She can't control it.

2nd Metallica concert..not bad so far

I went to the Farg on Friday and saw TSO. I forgot how much more impact that music has live.

I tried to get my kids to go, as symphonic metal is my jam, but no luck. One of these years.

I've been meaning to see them for years now and just have never managed to get around to it. Sometime though. I love their music. Old City Bar may be my favorite.

Old City and Music Box Blues are my faves. The staging of Old City Bar this year was probably the best I've seen from them.

This was my fifth time seeing them and it does change yearly.

Then end of Requiem/Sarejevo is an epic try to burn the arena down every year though. Hence the delay at the start of the game to fix an area of ice

This year I missed "Find Our Way Home" I love the video of the train in the mountains.

I went alone. Got a club seat and just let it sink in.

We went to see TSO on Fri afternoon. Great seats, 101 row 8. Listening to their 1st disc shuffled with others today, we noted how the songs seem different now. I never paid much mind to Old City Bar, but see it in a whole new light now. The balls to the walls rock show presentation somewhat surprised me. Lasers, elevating stage elements... was a great show.

 

[Appleyard]

Obsessed with this one the last week or so.

"Give me my waves and give me my babes (not plural for me ahaha),
And then you'll set me free."

Relatable.

Seen them live twice. Such a great show.

Looking forward to finally getting back to see Philly Orchestra sometime soon, too. This concert is always excellent.

I am torturing my coworkers today with the whole Orlando TSO show... I found it on Youtube. It's the West band so different people than Philly gets.

the more I sit and ponder about this Simmons situation the more surreal it seems to me. I feel like we're living in a simulation.

this guy is literally willing to sit out an entire NBA season at the age of 25 because he's scared of his own fanbase and doesn't want to improve his game. has anything like this ever happened in sports?

and I don't see any magic great offers coming by the trade deadline either. I really think this goes into next summer.
