Oh yeah its a horrible, horrible movie but that doesn't mean I won't watch it every time I come across it on cable.

Especially if you're young and have a big crush on Ethan Embry (sub Tyler, RZ etc.) at the time said movie comes out.

ENBB OTM re: crushes. But Tyler's mismatched underwear on the day she knew (and put tons of prep into) she was gonna seduce Rex Manning always bugged me.

I had forgotten about a lot of this movie.

Although on my bus home the other night the Charles looked really pretty and there were some crew teams rowing and it reminded me of something someone said in ER about Harvard being where guys row boats and eat ivy or something like that.

My favorite was in college we played a prank on this older guy (mid-40s) in our design studio who kept trying to be "hip" and keep up with bands we were listening to. Anyway, we spent about a month talking up this Rex Manning and how amazing he was. Finally this dude begged us to dub him a tape of Rex Manning to hear what the fuss was about. I spent two nights crafting a tape full of excised Dead bootleg and Sonic Youth guitar solos. Kinda wishing I still had that tape, tbh.

You know who are on the sndtrk though (apparently)? The Gin Blossoms. It all comes full circle.

Yeah, that tune was co-written with Marshall Crenshaw and it's A+++++.

I like My Head but bands no one has heard of is different from bands no one cares about.

How'd Better Than Ezra escape mention? I guess no one truly cares about them...

If there was a church of douches that picture would be in stained glass.

When did the whole fedora on rockers thing start up? Is it some leftover from late 90s ska culture or something?

Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Sunday, 21 April 2013 18:32 (ten years ago) link

Yeah, I think that's where they picked it up.
