    Merry Christmas!

    Yes, indeeedy...., a very magical time of the year indeed. Didn't figure I'd get into the spirit, but somehow it's happened. Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la. Everybody have a wonderful New Year & a very happy Christmas. I hope everybody gets exactly what they want:)

    Which is the Best Back to the Future Film?

    I can remember as a kid being soooo disappointed at the end of 1 w/ the "To be continued..." logo flashing just before the end credits...and you people know how kids are, the next few years between 1 and 2 seemed like an eternity. By the time 2 came out, I didn't care anymore. Wasn't until they...

    *** Official "STAR TREK: NEMESIS" Discussion Thread

    Ohhhhh...I see. It's been a few months since reading about it. It's too bad about Wes being cut from the movie, however. Although I never *loved* young Crusher as a character, I didn't loathe him like many do. In fact, some of his later appearances during the program's run were pretty decent...

    *** Official "STAR TREK: NEMESIS" Discussion Thread

    , but it was cut for whatever reason. Evidently the film was originally nearly 3 hours. Suppposed to be on the DVD. I'd read about it on (don't laugh)Wil's website a few months ago. He seemed (at the time anyway) more than slightly disapointed.

    Pearl Jam's new album...

    I saw Mudhoney open for PJ in '98, & they were pretty cool. I'd like to be there for the Steve Earle opening night. He's really great. A singer/songwriter who has in the past has recorded w/ another great Seattle-based band "The Supersuckers" (who, btw, have recorded a few songs w/ Ed in the...

    Pearl Jam's new album...

    From www.theskyiscrape.com, a pretty reliable site for PJ news: The next single from Riot Act, Save You, will make its way onto the radio on December 10th (possibly a radio-only single). The song is an edited version, muting out any expletives (no 'kcuf you' like Letterman this time ). The...

    Dylan DVD with new Bootleg Series Vol 5

    Just picked up the Rolling Thunder Review CD & so far I'm more than impressed! Bob rules! This is a must have!!!:D

    Pearl Jam's new album...

    Brian grumbled: I agree. While RA hasn't achieved Yield status for me (which I think is thier most well-rounded album to date), I think it's pretty durn close. To think, a few months ago when there were rumors around claiming that Riot Act would be more "Ten"-esque I had nightmares of...

    Audioslave = AC/DC??

    I've barely given it a spin & a half so far, but from what I've heard, it's okay. My wife asked how it was & I said "Cornell w/ Rage", in fact, I think that's what they should have called the band. ;)

    Pearl Jam's new album...

    I think it's more than slightly ironic that in Cobain's journals he was complaing about PJ being all corporate & whatnot, and here we are a decade later & it's Cobain himself being exploited by corporate greed and and a money hungry widow. A video in heavy rotation on corporate giant Mtv, a...

    Pearl Jam's new album...

    Sigh. Every post grunge-era Pearl Jam album resurfaces these kind of talks. Why isn't X better than Y? Why couldn't they have done X like Y? Why isn't Ed/Mike/Stone/Jeff/Current Drummer better than they were on Y? Honestly, I'm surprised people want to talk in circles about something...

    Pearl Jam's new album...

    Odd...., I think it's their most mature effort....does that mean best, I don't know.... How anyone could listen to these songs, especially the ones where Mike totally goes off, and doesn't get a little of that PJ pride...well, it makes me wonder... Typically, I don't think in terms of...

    Pearl Jam's new album...

    Don't know about a full fledged review just yet. I've listened to the album 7 or 8 times since Monday, and I've enjoyed it more & more upon each spin. I never try to "rank" PJ albums, b/c they each have something special for me. "Riot Act" is a damn good rock record, however. Give me...

    Pearl Jam's new album...

    My local 'Mom & Pop' is getting it tomorrow. My wife has off for Vet's Day, but I have to work until 5:30. She knows the rules, however...It's mine to open:) Only 24 more hours!!!!

    Pearl Jam's new album...

    Just a week or so away from release date: 11/12/02 (for those of you who've resisted the temptation to download the album!) Here's a neat review from the Boston Globe... Pearl Jam wants to be loved again After a decade of lying low, the band returns to its rock roots with 'Riot Act'...

    "New" Nirvana video, is this the worst thing ever?

    The new video is indeed a travesty. The first thing I thought was Kurt rolling in the grave (although, I believe he was cremated). I'm staying far away from the greatest hits CD. No need to line Courtney's pockets w/ any more cash...unfortunately, she'll get a cut of the boxed set money...

    *** Official "THE RING" Discussion Thread

    Then show me a PG-13 movie that is scary, psycologically stimulating, and good. Do movies need explicit violence and nudity to be good? No. All I was saying is that they had a decent premise for a great flim, but they seemed to go for the lame "boo"/kid-friendly, faux horror, IMO. That...

    *** Official "THE RING" Discussion Thread

    I saw it last night & thought it was just okay. Not scary enough IMO. Lots of 'boo' moments, however. Great atmosphere, but unfortunately, I viewed the film with a room full of 14 year olds who thought it was the most horrifying thing they've ever witnessed--so that ruined some of the...

    Is Eddie Murphy's "Party all the time" the cheeziest song from the 80s?

    It's slightly ironic that this thread should pop up, because half of these songs listed have been running on a loop through my head the last week. I think I have something terminal. When you've got a "Somebody's Watching Me"/"Safety Dance" medley going though your noggin', then one must have...

    Ben Folds Live Album

    Typically, I'll buy my music at Best Buy (just because it's cheaper than 90% of the other record stores), but they really let me down with this release. Only TWO copies ordered...all gone when I got there... ("Twenty more on the way!" OH, and no Pearl Jam "I Am Mine" single...

    god I'm tired of stupidity

    My wife and I got rear ended by some idiots the day before our one year anniversary this past June. We were in her Jetta & they were in a motor home (which was hauling a car behind it). These people, who had no business driving such a large vehicle w/ such a heavy load, waited too long to break...

    Bob Dylan's 1971(?) single: "George Jackson"

    Thanks for the info Anthony! I really appreciate it! I was able to download a pretty clear version of the acoustic version off of Kaaza yesterday...still looking for the Big Band version on there! Thanks everybody!

    LOL....you can find the lyrics here:) http://www.theskyiscrape.com/ I like lots of different bands, and various types of music, but I always seem to come back to Pearl Jam as my favorite. I have friends that jokingly tell me that Pearl Jam could do a full-length album of "toilet sounds"...
