Bow Down

Is gmail running real slow for everyone else today?

Jesus, I almost had a heart attack last night. The Sox snatched victory from the jaws of defeat from the jaws of victory. Let’s just agree to get this all out of our system now fellas.

Get you old school adidas desktop wallpaper.

Super Furry Gruff to release a solo record, sung in Welsh and produced by Gorwell Owen! Muy bueno.

Also, does the OC suck a little less since they put a SFA track on one of their Mix CD's? No, but the effort is appreciated.

Check out the the cover art for the forthcoming Greatest Hits cd/DVD as well as the SFA schedule for the next month or so.

I can’t believe I missed Jon Stewart on the O’Reilly Factor. I can’t believe Stewart put up with this shit..

O'REILLY: But it is. It's true. I mean, you've got stoned slackers watching your dopey show every night, OK, and they can vote.
STEWART: Yeah.
O'REILLY: You can't stop them.
STEWART: Yeah, I just don't know how motivated they would be, these stoned slackers.
O'REILLY: Yeah, it just depends if they have to go out that day.
STEWART: What am I, a Cheech and Chong movie? Stoned slackers?
O'REILLY: Come on, you do the research, you know the research on your program.
STEWART: No, we don't.
O'REILLY: Eighty-seven percent are intoxicated when they watch it. You didn't see that?
STEWART: No, I didn't realize that.
O'REILLY: Yeah, we have that there.
STEWART: We come on right after, I believe, puppets that make crank calls...
O'REILLY: Yeah.
STEWART: ... so we are, I think, the appropriate follow up...

I have no reason for posting this pic of Andrei Kirilienko other than it’s scary as hell.

Are the Expos coming to DC? I hope so. I want to tell Peter Angelos to suck it. What will the new team name be? The mind races at the possibilities.

Looks like I’m gonna miss out on seeing The Director's Cut of Donnie Darko. I knew I should have gone last weekend! Argh.

If anyone wants to come have a drink with a few C list bloggers in the name of a good cause, which I think, is something like DRINK UNTIL WE FIND A CURE FOR CANCER or something like that, then by all means stop by tonight. This is where I’ll be.

Speaking of, this weekend Catherine passed the grueling interview with flying colours to become the official concert buddy of information leafblower. On Saturday night we sat through the Zutons (Ok, not great) and The Thrills (booooooring), but still had a good time. Her write up pretty much says it all. The night is notable, however, because I successfully drove from downtonwn DC back to the crib without getting lost! Yay me.

Greedo never fired!

T-Muffle, RIP

The Moz camp on the KROQ cancellation.Furthermore, an anonymous reader sent in the following info regarding “that lawsuit”.
Ian Brown refused to go on unless the announcement was held until the end of his set, because he was afraid people would leave. So the station was in a pretty crazy bind. If you can't sue Creed for sucking, you can't sue over this either.

Exactly one week until Morrissey in DC!
