For some reason this excellent b-side didn't make it to Lost Dogs . If you can find the Not For You single, you'll score this track. Pearl Jam - Out Of My Mind ps. this is the CD single that I have purchased the most times in my life (7 to date). I've given it away as a gift a number of times, and repeatedly scratched my own copies.
Say what you will about Alanis, the lady can sing. Alanis Morissette - Mary Jane
This post is hard to write. No one likes to admit being wrong. I should also mention - this post is intended for a small number of folks, who like me, have been in denial about the White Stripes . I give up, I'll finally admit it - they're fucking good. I think my unfair bias towards them began when several corporate drones mentioned to me during pre-meeting chit-chat that the White Stripes were their new favorite band. Not wanting to have anything to do with anything related to these jackasses, I immediately [...]
In truth I'd never call listening to new music a waste of time, but you know what I mean.. Thanks to the following: homercat for reminding me of Helix , a classic Canadian cheese-metal band. donewaiting for introducing me to Liz Isenberg Puddlegum for the new Radiohead track Phish & Chips for posting 12 versions of I Shot The Sheriff Some Velvet Blog [...]
If you get bored this weekend (Sat, Dec 9th and Sun, Dec 10th), you can listen to or watch the KROQ Acoustic Christmas . Guests will include Wolfmother , Foo Fighters (both nights), and The Raconteurs (among others).
Admittedly, this is the kind of thing that slips under my radar all the time. I knew that Filter front-man Richard Patrick was creating a new band, I think I even knew at one point they were going to be called Army of Anyone . What I didn't know, was that it has happened already. Every once in a while I check out the Filter home page for news of a tour, a new album.. something. Well I checked again last night, which led me to the Army [...]
The first Sublime song ever to be played on the radio - Sublime - I Smoke Two Joints
Speaking of Grammy stupidity , does anyone remember when Metallica didn't win a Grammy for their ...And Justice for All album, but then did win one for Black? Or how about when Gov't Mule was nominated for a Grammy for their song Sco-Mule in the "Best Rock Instrumental Performance" category, only to lose to The Flaming Lips (who are certainly not bad, but come on Approaching Pavonis Mons By Balloon.. please)
Yep, it's that time of the year . And as usual, the nominations are mostly bullsh*t. With that said, good luck to the following: Neil Young , nominated for Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance, Best Rock Song and Best Rock Album Tom Petty , nominated for Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance and Best Rock Album Béla Fleck & The Flecktones , nominated for Best Pop Instrumental Performance and Best Contemporary Jazz Album Bob Dylan , nominated for Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance, Best Rock Song and Best Contemporary Folk/Americana [...]

And in todays "no duh" news, marijuana is not a "gateway" drug that predicts or eventually leads to substance abuse, suggests a 12-year University of Pittsburgh study . Who would have thought. This will almost certainly not be the last time this song is featured as a 420 song of the day... Ian Moore - Champagne & Reefer
