BTW - at the least the two major parties have some consistent principles and values. These so-called independents have neither except to be something other than a Democrat or Republican. Hardly endearing to voters. Bullshit. There are factions within each party. There are also regional differences....

I know what you're talking about ... I've seen it. Can't remember the name of the band though. I'll ask my gf if she remembers who it is. She watches a lot more VH1 than I do.

One word - Aerosmith. God, somebody please put them out of their misery. They are like U2... had some great early music, then started sucking some ass later on. And as a general rule, any so-called artist who does not write their own music/lyrics or play an instrument is overrated. Those idiots pro...

I saw the file on my computer when they were isolating it. It definitely was titled "neoconAP23." Maybe it's a version of something else with that name.

At any rate, our network dudes said home computers are probably safe, as long as they are updated. Yeah, big reassurance. :roll:

Agree on their recent shit. It blows.

Their early stuff ... "October, "Boy," "War" ... they sound like a completely different band.

But his first three albums, IMHO, were and remain rock 'n roll classics. He bacame a media darling, suffered from overplay and overhype, and maybe started resting on his laurels and got kind of stale. But you can't take his accomplishments away. True.

I'm not sure why everyone has such a boner for Pearl Jam. I mean, "Garden" is a cool song, but that's about as far as it goes for me. They don't necessarily suck. I just think they're way overrated. Me too. WAY overrated. Don't call me daughter... Wtf is that? Actually, the end of that so...

don't sweat it too much, in Denver the jazz station used to be great but it's morphed into crap. a lot of "jazz" covers Police songs or the Beatles. that's what the Yuppies want--something without lyrics yet elevated in cultural rank. Ah yes, if it doesn't have lyrics and has a good beat,...

Let's talk about it, in this thread. Personally, I like everything from Cole Porter to Boney James. Jazz is really the only truly American art form, though the French try to imitate us, very well, in some cases.

Again, the people of the United States of America OWN the airwaves. Anything broadcast on the airwaves should be available, in that form, for them to use for free.

Then why doesn't the RIAA take Air America to court over their live streaming?
