Not Kent

I'm just irritated that I've been called out as a non-Cope fan when I don't happen to have one of his albums, and yet generally get around to evangelising him when invited to name my favourite musics. Fucking NOBODY my age is a Cope fan, and yet I'm the one getting it in the neck? Jesus.

Mr. Que, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:41 (fifteen years ago) link

caek, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:42 (fifteen years ago) link

23. Bristol?

Land Of Fear!!! Fried is a superb record, but it's trumped by its own bonus track, a jolly and upbeat yet subtly melancholy keyboard drift-along. The last coupla minutes are perfect.

velko, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:45 (fifteen years ago) link

i feel no joy, only hollow irritation. you see, i'd actually started composing my defence of allmusic use ("i have 3 other Cope albums!") and then when I tried to post it Suzy had already gotten in there with the sly dig I had been attempting to repudiate. argh.

100 tons of hardrofl beyond zings (Just got offed), Monday, 13 October 2008 20:47 (fifteen years ago) link

69, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:48 (fifteen years ago) link

21 is not in MT, or in the US for that matter.

Casuistry, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:48 (fifteen years ago) link

I have been on that bridge in Astoria, and I would never have guessed it. I am bad at this game.

Casuistry, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:49 (fifteen years ago) link

you're not bad at this game--your picture is tough. is it in Canada? is it Moosejaw? is it?

Mr. Que, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:51 (fifteen years ago) link

xp I am, too, but mostly because I haven't even heard of half the cities people have chosen.

jaymc, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:51 (fifteen years ago) link

is 21 a city, looks like nowhere

velko, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:52 (fifteen years ago) link

21 has "City" in its very name.

Casuistry, Monday, 13 October 2008 20:56 (fifteen years ago) link

caek, Monday, 13 October 2008 21:10 (fifteen years ago) link
