Yeah in retrospect I felt bad I didn't mention that one in my post. I meant it no disrespect.

Honest version: For god's sakes, man what are you waiting for? GET your arse down to a shop NOW! You've got hurricanes down there in Florida, you can't afford to take these kinds of risks! ;)
The thought of cassingles alone makes me feel old.

Their early liner notes were all classic. Sorry Ma features the immortal "written 20 mins after we recorded it."
Westerberg's notes to his recent solo best-of are similarly funny, though significantly crankier.

Incidentally: Classic, for Sorry Ma, Stink, and Hootenanny, plus bits of Let It Be, Tim,, and Pleased to Meet Me.

when westerberg meets his fans, some of them go up to him smiling, and leave wiping their eyes. this usually happens because of how deeply, personally his music touched their lives. i've never seen anything like it before in my life.
let it be, motherfuckers.

They are a classic band who wrote mostly brilliant songs with great lyrics. What more is there?

I mean, I know my finger quivers with existential angst just before it hits the "play" button, but I would like to hear of your experiences.

LIMITED WARRANTY sounds like the name of Adam Sandler's former band in The Wedding Singer.
So what about this new book?
― James Redd and the Blecchs, Friday, 26 October 2007 05:54 (sixteen years ago) link
I want it so bad but i'm gonna wait for the paperback version - it'll be cheaper and easier to read / carry around. I'm reading the Pixies oral history now, anyway, and you can really only read one oral history at a time, right?
But yeah, I'm excited about it.

BAH! I gave in to temptation after all and just bought this book on Amazon. Damn super saver discount gets me every time - also bought that new Shooter Jennings album and the Michael Showalter CD to save on shipping. What a weekend it will be when THAT combo arrives!

some good extras on here. "If Only You Were Lonely" is easily one of their best tunes.
