Mal ,'War Stories'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

God, Hec, did you think we'd take your Music Geek card away...I might admire it, you know, but what would I do with a card with a dragon on it?

What? For changing my mind about the Girl Group box? Nah, I'm the kind of geek that's always re-evaluating. Nobody wants to hang around with a geek who Knows It All. Much more fun to talk to somebody who Knows A Lot, but is open to changing their mind or discovering something new.
Okay, just checking, bunk.The High Fidelity guys might get discouraged, though and spread rumors you like Simple Minds or something.
"Going Against Your Mind": the first new Built To Spill track in FIVE years. Leading up to a new album to be released in April. Hoorah!
The Iggy Pop Biopic starring Elijah Wood seems to be a go. It's all over the internets.
Damn. Wilson Pickett died
I am poking around on iTunes right now and just found "New York House" under exclusives, except no tracks are up. 38 people have taken the time to write "reviews" about the album that wasn't. kinda funny, but also people with too much time. And how does iTunes not fix this or take it down at least.
Nice Richard Thompson interview in today's Guardian.
