Amen! Don't get me started on those filthy, vacant-stared, slack-jawed, mumbling little pothead zombies, who barely have the motivation to wipe the Doritos crumbs and drool off their faces, much less to change the channel from the cable access show broadcasting high school graduation videos.

Paigow,

If you dig the Crowes, try out My Morning Jacket and the Kings of Leon. They're both sorta Crowesy in different ways.

If you dig the Crowes' harder edged stuff, try out The Go. Their new recrod is great.

The Crowes needed a hiatus. Lions had some killer moments, but it also had a whole lotta slop on it. They need to come back with another way spaced out disc like Amorica. I think they have the genius double disc in them, if they could only go with their own sound and stop fighting about whether to be the faces or Zeppelin.

SD

PS: I've seen them play live about five times, last time being with Jimmy Page. The Page show was unreal.

Can you do me a favor and let me know when any of these bands might be in the DC area if you follow their tour info, which i suspect you do? I need a show, man.

for you paigow, the world:

My Morning Jacket will be in DC at 9:30 Club on 1/31: http://www.mymorningjacket.com/shows.html

I saw them here a couple of months ago. They are more Allmans-y than Black Crowes, IMO. I would think you would like them.

I think we've established that there's no one around here who uses those types of terms or has that kind of attitude. The only one I can think of that talks about her predestined "one" was DS, and she's very happily married. So why do you persist?

FWIW, were I ever to use the term "The One" to the Mr (outside of a discussion of the merits of the various Highlander and Matrix movies, saying "oooh, you're The One, when did you know I was The One" or anything like that) he'd beat me with a stick. As would I if he tried it. (That's part of how we knew we were The One!) And I don't think it is very much like what these people who go on about finding The One seem to be looking for. It wasn't flowers & fireworks, it was more like "oh, THAT's where my right leg has been all these years." Or like e-mail - you know you didn't have it at some point in the past and apparently survived, but now you just can't imagine how.

Mystic River was one of the best movies I've seen until the last five minutes, when I thought the wife's role was badly overwritten.

I'll agree on the overwritten part, but that didn't spoil the movie for me. Watching Mystic River was like being slugged in the stomach every 10 minutes. Not necessarily and enjoyable movie, but a powerful one.

The Kings of Leon I think are on tour with the Strokes. the Strokes are overhyped and overrated, but that doesn't make their latest record any less brilliant than I happen to think it is. I like it waaay more than their first record, which everyone thought was the bext new rock since Nirvana.

Floyd in True Romance is Brad Pitt's greatest ever role, followed closely by Micky in Snatch.

My favorite stoner sceen stealers still have to be Keanu Reeves and William Hurt in I Love You to Death, though. I still see that and think that maybe, just maybe, there is a chance that Keanu Reeves is secretly a brilliant actor ....

Narc, please. I don't mind 'em. Hell, I dated 'em, though no one who actually drooled. I just don't think Kate Hudson outweighs it in the Why Chris Robinson is A Simp department.

I cannot beleive that the samples and big head todd are coming here. who goes to see these bands? we also have mellissa etheridge coming, and northern missippi allstars and foutnains of wayne. someone touted the last band- is that worht seeing? I plan to go to the Missiippi Allstars.

Nancy Reagan, please.

This is a guy who when on booze, pot, coke and heroin was well-known for legendary battles with his brother.

Not a pussy, he. Until now.

That's your test for not being a pussy? His notorious fighting with his brother? Fuck, my brothers had worse battles than that without the benefit of the drug-induced insulation from pain.

If you want to hear what happens when people stop taking drugs and drinking, listen to the new Metallica record. Its one of the very few utterly unredeemable discs I own. There is not a listenable cut on the entire album, and its all dreck from the singer about how he's got control of his life now that he's clean and sober. It might as well be Christian Rock.

Don't believe the hype - the band sucked since "And Justice for All"

1) Paigow is clearly coming down hard off a late-night binge. Mood swings all over the place.

2) Hillary Duff

Boy, THAT would be the all-time holding close of the cards.
