Of all of them goobs I think you'd like My Morning Jacket...I'm gonna watch their tour schedule and if they're ever near you I'll let you know.
They've all got hair down to their waists and just rock out hard on their instruments...they're from Tennessee..and man they're good.

Really? I thought they were from Tennessee. Either wya...they kick fucking ass.
Randall: What about it? It's not on my list. The end.
edit: I shall elaborate...Demon Days is a good album. It *sounds* very good. But it has nowhere near the oomph its predecessor had.

Most people don't know where to look...I get to see a lot of young bands live for free so I get exposed to albums that never circulate beyond a certain point.

Cage - Hell's Winter
I dont think I bought any "new" music other than that this year. Its been all Cage, Frank Zappa, and Dub Side of the Moon.

I can't believe that you, of all people, did not include Gimmer Fiction on that list.
