      Jeez, he like Farm more than *me*!!!

      My thought exactly. When I first read this review I thought it must just be some blog by a megafan trying to promote the band. I didn’t think there could be a bigger fan than me until I read this! I was pleasantly surprised to find ABC’s logo on the top of the page…

          How was "Over It" live? I feel like it’s the most precise use of the wah J has ever employed in one of his songs and just wonder if he pulls it off live (not that I doubt he can – being the guitar god he is). I’m freaking addicted to that song right now.

          I’m so bummed they aren’t coming through Indy this time around. I missed them in Bloomington in April because I was a month into fatherhood and an 1.5 hour drive on a week night seemed impossible at the time…

                That’s great! This part was hilarious:

                DiS: What have been the highest and lowest points of your career?

                J: [shrugs] The same thing, actually: playing with Tony Bennett on his Unplugged show was the highest point, and when they cut me out of the broadcasted show, that was the lowest point.

                  For what it’s worth, this guy seems especially critical in general so this is a pretty good review from him. Of course his reviews are limited to 140 characters…

                    And what’s with them pulling the album off of MySpace right after sending a tweet (man, I hate that word) that the new album is still streaming on their profile? Weak!

                    It was a communication breakdown between those running the myspace stuff and the person running the twitter account *ahem*! My bad!
                    Also, I hate that word too. Not as bad as ‘tweeple’. makes the skin crawl!

                    You’re forgiven! I’m just pissed my CD isn’t coming today and may not come until Thursday. I mean, what is this 1997?

                        Just vote and the results appear.

                        Mars Volta is winning by a mile, bleh.

                        I think Beyond came out the same month as Sky Blue Sky a couple years ago. There must be a strategy to releasing albums the same month as Wilco :P

                          Wow, Lou sure sounded annoyed in that interview. He’s not usually like that…

                            I kinda see a non-permanent break coming. Lou has a solo album he’s working on and I could see J doing another Fog album before we hear from Dino again after this. I hope that’s not the case, but that’s my prediction.

                              Not sure how accurate this is as I haven’t tried playing it myself but here’s some (apparently) complete tab for ya:

                                I pre-ordered the edition with four extra songs from some other site, I’m just hoping it gets here on Tuesday.

                                Of course, by then I will have listened to this so many times on Myspace I might be sick of Farm by then! Although, that’s not really possible…

                                Four songs in and I definitely like this better than Beyond. Love Beyond but this is more my speed I think.

                                  I found the ordering of this sentence interesting: "…guitarist and legendary singer J Mascis…" normally people say it the other way around. :wink:
