^ holy shit, awesome

OSCAR PREDICTIONS VERSUS OSCAR DESIRED WINS, GO.

3/5/2010 3:03:43 AM

i'm too tired for this

the one that really sticks out to me if we're talking about those two ideas, though

is that i'm almost positive that UP will win best animated on the strength of its first half hour, which is absolutely brilliant

but i far preferred fantastic mr. fox as a whole

if you're ever in a chilled out mood, you should check out some of Bill Laswell's dub material, and Scientist is another one of my favorite dub artists

3/5/2010 3:16:49 AM

one of my DJ friends is way into dub, i need to get some stuff from him

it might be a matter of being in the right frame of mind to appreciate it

i've never really gotten into the go! team, but we were testing out the new sound system at jp tonight and were listening to fuck buttons for like an hour

then i got in my car and the go! team came on

and it finally clicked

hmm

The opening sequence in Up is so fucking good. The third act borders on downright silly.

Fantastic Mr. Fox is so fucking good.

3/5/2010 3:22:49 AM

I like Fuck Buttons

[Edited on March 5, 2010 at 3:26 AM. Reason : new system at JP???]

3/5/2010 3:25:32 AM

we got new cabinets while ours get fixed

sounds good...not great, but a million times better than it has for the past couple months

we tested everything and it sounded awesome, and as soon as the guy who helped us set it up leaves, of course the speaker in the middle room stops working completely

but whatever

main room sounds really good

Shut your mouth, heathen. It is progressive, and it's a masterpiece at heart.

It's definitely worth actually listening to, and you don't have to be on drugs either.

i'm bored and picking out records for tomorrow night

hit me

3/5/2010 9:19:59 PM

^^see, i dont get it, ill give you that its far more interesting than any of their later stuff

but it feels so disjointed and just over the top, ive never understood the love this record gets, and ive TRIED

3/5/2010 9:46:05 PM

^^ MOTOWN

MOTOWN

MOTOWN

3/5/2010 9:49:05 PM

do you like stevie wonder?

3/5/2010 9:56:29 PM

i love stevie wonder

i don't trust people who don't

3/5/2010 9:59:30 PM

best jamiroquai album?

3/5/2010 10:00:58 PM

no clue

3/5/2010 10:03:09 PM

something something something Iron Maiden's 1982 release for post #666

3/5/2010 10:04:04 PM

stevie wonder love but no jamiroquai love? does not compute

3/5/2010 10:04:30 PM

^^^ i'm probably going to bonnaroo again this year and feel like i should be more familiar with his catalog since he'll be one of the headliners. which albums would you recommend? i'm generally opposed to greatest hits even though that'd probably be my best bet given the fact that his catalog is quite large and festivals seem to encourage artists of his stature to play the more well known songs. then again, 3 of pearl jam's first 5 songs in 2008 were b-sides, but i guess that's neither here nor there.

3/5/2010 10:06:34 PM

i mean, i like the jamiroquai records i've heard and all

but i don't know what's what

and i know i haven't heard a jamiroquai song that makes me feel like "all day sucker"

3/5/2010 10:06:44 PM

oh yeah

I don't know why I promoted Motown for tomorrow night

we're having a Galifianakis party over here tomorrow

3/5/2010 10:07:02 PM

the important stevie albums are the big four:

songs in the key of life
fulfillingness' first finale
talking book
innervisions

3/5/2010 10:09:40 PM

"alright" is a pretty good start, but almost everything he's done is gold to me

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXyB12Okt68

this song just gets it going, course thats just my opinion

3/5/2010 10:13:54 PM

that's a little straight ahead for me, but not bad

i like them, and jay kay is a cool dude

i'll look into it

3/5/2010 10:19:35 PM

ya definitely went for easily accessible as opposed to interesting (not that theyre mutually exclusive or anything but you get my drift)

but you'd dig it

[Edited on March 5, 2010 at 10:24 PM. Reason : /]

3/5/2010 10:23:52 PM

ya this is a lil bit more interesting, but theres more you cant find on youtube

but this jam is good

3/6/2010 2:00:30 AM

one of my friends had been pestering me to watch wet hot american summer for weeks because it was so fucking hilarious, so i did earlier tonight and didn't think it was as funny as everyone said. i heard other people fellate this movie while i was in college. is there something wrong with me, or was this just a case of a quality movie being overhyped?

3/6/2010 2:18:41 AM

it's a very funny movie

but it's not an all-time american comedy classic or anything

3/6/2010 9:32:05 AM

maybe watching it by myself didn't help. comedies are generally funnier with other people around. i try to tell myself the same thing regarding it's always sunny in philadelphia because i watched seasons 1 and 2 and part of season 3 by myself and didn't think it was nearly as good as people said.

I did a deconstructive literary analysis of the album's "text" (I included its many album pictures, the lyrics, and some of the stage performances which are extremely elaborate)--maybe I'll send it your way to understand it better. The story it tells is amazing, and each song is an extremely detailed and trippy journey in that story.

3/6/2010 1:12:32 PM

how under appreciated are the Evens?

[Edited on March 11, 2010 at 4:17 PM. Reason : that's better]

3/11/2010 4:14:31 PM

how under appreciated is fellating your own choice is music?

[Edited on March 11, 2010 at 4:23 PM. Reason : that's better]

3/11/2010 4:23:23 PM

^^ meh

^ is that a sentence?

3/11/2010 4:30:32 PM

I just feel like me and my MacKaye-obsessed friend are the only people who have ever talked about them

[Edited on March 11, 2010 at 4:35 PM. Reason : more MacKaye than Fugazi]

3/11/2010 4:33:18 PM

is akhnaten the best work of phillip glass?

3/11/2010 4:37:58 PM

i like the evens more than fugazi

but i think it's pretty clear that they're more my speed than fugazi

3/11/2010 4:37:59 PM

Favorite song on the new Joanna Gruesome


for me its either "You And Me, Bess", "Easy" or "Have One On Me", though i haven't listened to the 3rd cd very much just because i usually get tired of listening to her by then

I'm AstralAdvent and i approved this message.

[Edited on March 11, 2010 at 4:38 PM. Reason : lets say top 3 since i listed III]

3/11/2010 4:38:31 PM

"Good Intentions Paving Company"

3/11/2010 4:44:31 PM

haha thats def my least favorite song.

harmonies sound melodyned

I'm AstralAdvent and i approved this message.

[Edited on March 11, 2010 at 4:45 PM. Reason : though pretty much everything by anyone is melodyned anyways...]

3/11/2010 4:45:21 PM

that is the correct answer

3/11/2010 4:45:32 PM

What's your favorite so-bad-it's-good movie?

3/11/2010 4:46:12 PM

^^^ i really like the way they use the synths on it

and there are plenty of people who don't use melodyne

^ currently, it's the room

3/11/2010 4:48:40 PM

i didnt puke on vinylbandit the last time i went to jackpot so hes not going to respond to me

3/11/2010 4:54:42 PM

sorry, missed that one in the ghost edit spree

i never got into philip glass

3/11/2010 4:57:03 PM

which is worse

311 fans

or phish fans

show your work

3/11/2010 4:58:51 PM

overzealous phish fans are probably worse on the whole

but 311 fans are just obnoxious

even someone who's only a casual fan of 311 annoys me, because they're fucking terrible

at least a burnout has an excuse to go to phish shows: get stoned, get laid, twirl around

no such excuses for listening to a 311 record

3/11/2010 5:01:00 PM

i hate being lumped in with the wooks

3/11/2010 5:03:23 PM

i have learned to differentiate over the years

there was a wook at jp last night

he kept yelling "HEY BLONDIE" at my friend, and got really angry when i told him that "cherish" isn't my favorite song by the association because "that's the song i'm getting married to, man"

3/11/2010 5:06:01 PM

i can't find any reason why the avett brothers are really worth a shit, but some of my friends fellate them. am i missing something? and does that one guy even play any particular style of banjo, or is it just a waste of the instrument?

3/11/2010 10:26:19 PM

there are a few good avett brothers songs

they are nothing special at all
