Heck yeah, I love it! It's different and all but I'm really loving it. Can't wait to hear the real thing instead of the crappy NPR stream though. (not that I don't appreciate your amazingness NPR)
I was trolling through here and read something about one of you guys being one of the backup singers in high hawk season, were you serious?

jacobfiala, Monday, 7 March 2011 00:38 (fifteen years ago)

Nah he wasn't serious. No-one on ilx knows J0hn Darn3ll3. Nope, not here.

For the record I think Jacob was asking about DJP? Who apparently did do some arranging & voc'ing on the record, which is fuckin rad. Wherever this goth barbershop quartet sings I'm getting my next haircut there for sure.

jacob since you're new here I'll let you in on the secret: the lead singer of the tmgs occasionally posts on this site under the alias 'acoleuthic'

Okay that is hilarious but maybe we should stop injoking the new guy

i don't listen to the mountain goats but it was hilarious when john self-banned cause he had to finish writing this album. kind of makes me want to hear it. tho i guess an album written in between intermittent bursts of ilx would be even better

I hope to hell that JD is on the phone right now to Kung Fu to correct them on the spelling of "cassette".

kkvgz, Thursday, 17 March 2011 18:38 (fifteen years ago)

lol, i didn't even notice

jacobfiala, Thursday, 17 March 2011 19:06 (fifteen years ago)

What are the odds that the cassette contains the "Fun Fun Fun Fun" loop repeated for 120 minutes?

taco al pastorius (Steve Shasta), Thursday, 17 March 2011 19:07 (fifteen years ago)

jacobfiala, Friday, 25 March 2011 16:13 (fifteen years ago)

Jacob, the bidding didn't go up much in the last week. You should scrape together another $50 and take the lead.

Good Mother Jones interview. I didn't know John's parents were part of the Peace and Freedom Party. you can't get more late 60s left than that.

i'm scared I might win it. i just wanted to be able to say i bid on it, i don't actually have any money.

jacobfiala, Friday, 25 March 2011 18:28 (fifteen years ago)

don't bid on it if you can't pay for it!
