haha, Milo's got a PhD and several years of postdoc work and iirc worked as a research chemist in private/corporate labs. He probably made more in two years of doing that than off every record he ever sold.

they should just have a verifiable website where you can send your fave forgotten icons/legends money. just paypal it right to them. when people get drunk and listen to their teen faves and say fuggit i'm sending kevin seconds 20 bucks.

Scott- I totally get you about the live stuff. I had an amazing time at the Pixies reunion but could have went on fine without it. But the universe would be just wrong without some of the newer American Music Club songs and I need those new Comus songs and the new Lush single.
I wasn't into the new Swans stuff but other people think it's essential, so good for them.

Don't care about SNL in general, but people keep trying to force that (unfunny, from what I've seen) skit in particular on me.

SNL has always been unfunny unless you are a kid or drunk or high. the most annoying thing now is articles talking about how _important_ of a show it is. ditto for Colbert, Maher, the corporate left, et al. they aren't influential, they are reactive. people are fooling themselves if they think NBC Comcast is doing anything other than maintaining the status quo of cultural/political supremacy.

Glancing at the Britpop thread on ILM, I realized that's a thing I had/have zero interest in. I don't think I could recognize a song by any of its biggest purveyors.

Listening now. Oh yeah, THAT song. If you only played me the first 30 seconds I wouldn't have identified it though. I was just paying so little attention to alt rock in the early 90s, I was all about blues and jazz and old soul music.

i still don't care about bands reuniting. someone was excited today on facebook about some band today. can't think of a single band i would care about reuniting. let it die.
I remember in 1989 being all excited about the Who reunion tour (which was fun at the time, but utter dogshit in retrospect). I was complaining to a friend of mine about all the anti-Who-reunion backlash (mainly from hipster Pixies fans; oh, the irony...) and she said, "Yeah, what's the deal with that? They're musicians. Musicians play. That's what they do."

The potential angle of one's interest in Britpop's jangle is proportional to the degree of 1990's ennui of the 2010s' we.

I don't care what concerts you've been to or what iconic musicians you had the privilege of seeing/meeting before they died. not really interested in seeing a 95-year-old Vince Martin wheezing through "Cindy, Oh Cindy" on the off hope that he'll recapture some of the old magic of yesteryear. if a "living legend" can put on a good show then I might be up for it, but the "see a slice of history before it's gone forever" aspect of concertgoing is totally lost on me.
