I'll throw in the obligatory reference to Culture's "Two Sevens Clash." And I still really like Steel Pulse's "True Democracy." Best live reggae act I've seen, in large part because they were a real band. And because I was really, really high.

I saw a triple bill of Toots, Jimmy Cliff, and Fela Kuti. That was something else.

Not Bob interrupts this episode of "Popular Music Sucks Because It's Popular, QED" to bring you this public service announcement.

Meghan O'Rourke of Slate has a series on breavement, written in real time as she deals with the death of her mother on Christmas. I encourage my fellow FB members of the lost-a-parent (or friend) club to check it out -- the second entry was posted today.

Carry on.

I saw Peter Tosh at a supper club and pre-show watched Atticus' sister blow me under the table. Price fixe.

Look, what with all the recent bad press about my kind, I've been kind of busy lately. Would some kind soul please read these posts, crown the winner as the coolest poster with the coolest musical tastes/concert experiences and then punch him or her in the mouth for me? It would really save me some much needed time.

Thanks in advance,

Flinty

PLF only counts it if its unsolicited.

It's not our fault that you hate yourself in the morning after a night spent belting out "Thunder Road" in some stranger's living room.

I think I would rather wallow in the sense of loss and oblivion that comes from contemplating all the music I didn't know I was missing, but thanks.

Happy Mardi Gras!! I have posted pictures of beads, please reciprocate and post pictures of your boobies.

That is all.

Nice. Shouldn't you be halfway through your third lite beer at your local Applebees, trying to muster up some belligerent gaelic charm to use on the part time waitress staff who think you're their dad's age? And for the record, it was Any Way You Want It, and I almost hit that high note this time.

Please. That lineup has nothing on Tyrone Green.

Okay I put this down on my rental list. I don't want to watch a rape scene so is there on in this movie?

In Requiem for a Dream? I don't recall a forcible rape scene. But Jennifer Connolly is coerced into doing sexually demeaning things (although perhaps not be FB standards).

But it is bleak, depressing, grimy and not for the easily disturbed.

I don't think there's one in the regular version, but there's definitely oogey sex in the extended cut.
