When I initially responded to Thurgreed, the reply was submitted before I had intended, and the corrections to the aforementioned posting was not yet made. Anne is not me. I am not Anne. There is no reason to be alarmed. All is well. MR has nothing to worry about. The board is good.

You're explaining too much. I don't believe anything you say.

Seriously, that makes sense.

But now you've got me wondering whether my SO really does have a secret life on lawtalkers.

Wouldn't Chris Sarandon and Joanna Gleason make great dinner party guests?

Unlike Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins.

I had the impression (and I'm sure the entire board would agree but not post so) that Coltrane was referring to you, PP.

Its hardly a stretch - a pretender to status would no doubt pretend to like what she thought the cool kids were into.

Let's just say that if you ever follow through on posting pics of your robust puppies, paigow is gonna divorce you so fast it'll make your head spin. Don't say I didn't warn you --- that man is the jealous type.

See you on Sunday! Be sure to bring the folding chairs you borrowed.

Does anyone else have that friend (and good friend at that) who thinks he/she is the hippest person in the world, but all other friends think is a complete dork? You know the guy: big-time tool in college (but good guy) who never scored with the ladies, but now he gets an attractive (albeit annoying) girlfriend and he thinks he's the shit. Let me give an example: he's the type of person who goes to Widespread Panic/Phish/Stringe Cheese shows and spends more time thinking about what he's going to wear than how good the music will be. Moreover, he thinks he's "hip" b/c he's going to said show. It drives me nuts b/c I know most people are there for the music and not to look good/cool and now I sound like fucking Lester Bangs...am I a music snob?
Coltrane,

I always dress rather conservatively. Only one with shit for brains dresses the part of a hippie. The last thing I need to do is get arrested while high, so I've always dressed like a young republican when in situations where I could get pinched by some trooper for having bloodshot eyes and no concept of reality. Having no concept of reality is the only state in which I'd view Phish. They suck. I've seen them five times, the last being a mushroom fueled disaster senior year in college. I found myself wandering outside the theatre in a bad part of town because I simply couldn't handle the show (these shrooms were REALLY blue-tinged - my head went off like a firecracker and I needed TONS of beer asap). I'm over the fright at this age - now Phish just bores the shit out of me.

Widespread... well, I dig Bell's vocals. Everyday is a classic, up there with the very best of the Stones (yeh, that's sacrilege, but I really dig everyday). Space Wrangler and their first record also kick ass, but the later shit (with all the acid loops in it) sounds too poppy for me. Widespread plays best when they spread out the tunes with long jams.

Both groups attract asshole yuppies who fancy themselves weekend Deadheads. They don't know "Hatfield" from "Walkin'", yet they prattle on about how distraught they are about the guitarist's death (I can't even recall his name right now). They're the same kind of idiots who loved Blue Traveller and the Spin Doctors in college. You can't do anything with them but feel embarrassed in their presence. Smoke a load of dope, drink a lot of beer - you'll forget the assholes are there.

By the way, I have a disc of Widespread doing crazy covers from Atlanta in 196-1989. Its got a 20 minute Low Spark on it that's worth the purchase price alone. If you've got shit you'd like to trade, IM me.

I hear the Dead are pretty nuts live, but I'm concerned Phil is doing too much singing (he's awful). I hear their new guitarists is killer... did you catch them on their last mini-tour?

Buy the new Allmans disc and the new Govt Mule - Warren Haynes is playing like a man possessed these days and Derek Trucks, well... hell... he's Derek Trucks - 'nuff said.

S(yes, I IM)D

No one looks cool dressed as a hippie...or even worse, a neo-hippie. I stopped buying concert T-shirts years ago because I never wanted to play that game at shows...

"I'm wearing the T-shirt from their first showcase tour because I was into them before anyone else.
"Whatever, I'm wearing the T-shirt from the opening band, because the headliner sold out."

The only time I was tempted to break my rule was nearly ten years ago (?!) when Urge Overkill played the Berkeley Square. Instead of T-shirts, you could get fake gold UO medallions. I would have looked rEdiculous wearing one, but it seemed like an interesting idea.

In direct answer to your questions...
1) Your friend is a tool...a harmless tool, but a tool nonetheless.
2) You are a bit of a music snob.
3) There's nothing wrong with being a bit of a music snob.

Anne, I apologize for the sock thing. That was not a very nice welcome. FWIW, I am glad you are here anyway.

As for JLC, if the rumors are true, at least she ended up in better shape than the poor Canadian man who was re-gendered as a toddler -- to truly disastrous effect -- after a horribly botched operation on his penis. What a mess they made.

Generally agree on the concert tees. However, if I had been smart enough to buy one of the old subpop Nirvana tees, I would wear it. Everywhere.

Don't be stupid. If Susan Sarandon were Canadian she would never have been cast in a baseball movie. And if she did not have genitals she would never be permitted to play baseball, as we all know from the Peter LaCock story.

Sheesh. Do you people read before you post?

Depends on the move. If it's a long distance thing, where you may not see the guy again, then I can see his wanting to see his friends one last time. Alternatively, if it was a special place or there are a lot of good memories of it, like say, in a kitchen, I can also see wanting to have people over one last time. If the guy is moving from one generic apartment to another, then maybe there's an issue, but again, why not?

Sean Penn's Car Stolen in Berkeley
1 hour, 42 minutes ago
Trisha Carlson

Berkeley police are on the lookout for a black 1987 Buick belonging to actor Sean Penn.

They want to find it fast, because two weapons are inside.

Penn was having lunch with his assistant at the Venus Restaurant on Tuesday, and had parked his car at a meter just down the street.

Penn, a Marin County resident, does have a permit to carry the weapons.
