  1. have been a fan forever but prior to last year had only seen them twice since they rarely play in tx. attended 3 shows last year and had no idea that their fanbase is so...cult like. people lining up hours before the show to buy the poster/tshirt for that specific city. people camped out all night to be first in line...and then there's some sort of weird controversial wristband thing they do to save their place. all of the people around us at the shows had seen them 25+ times. it was very reminiscent of deadheads, except rich old people and no hippies. honestly it was very much a turnoff but i'm seeing them twice more this year so maybe they've got me right where they want me. the weird holier than thou undertones of all of it was pretty terrible.

  2. my biggest complaint with the new pj album is eddie vedder. for the last few albums he's just been cramming way too many words into the songs. there's no space anywhere that isn't filled with forced lyrics.

  3. i frequent the north lamar location. i find that it's great for breakfast or lunch but for whatever reason it's not good after 6pm. the waitstaff is awful all the time. quick to get your food and then you never see them again. hate being held hostage when i just want to pay and gtfo.

    That sucks. I really liked that bar. Pizza was fine but I never went there to eat. 

    That being said, buying that building for $3m after sinking $200k just to cover day-to-day operations at a struggling dive bar doesn't seem like a prudent investment. And asking the general public to cover part of your $600k down payment is an interesting strategy. The people that are going to contribute to that are regulars. And regulars already spend all of their disposable income at your bar. But good luck!

    asking for $100k to "close gracefully" is some bullshit. i enjoyed going there to see mostly shitty and occasionally good bands, and doing some day drinking on weekends. hell i was just there on saturday. don't think i've ever had their pizza.

    Just finished the new PJ album.  (twice)

    Easily their best effort since Yield.
     

    Bravo

    that's quite an opinion. waiting for stevie and wreckage are good, the rest doesn't do much for me. this one goes in the same category for me as everything post avocado...probably will never listen to it again after this tour.

    Still pissed that Je'Texas is gone... was really really enjoying their sound

    playing tomorrow night at continental club gallery. 

  7. saw the north mississippi allstars at antone's on friday night. had been a while since i had seen a good blues show. they had the guitarist/vocalist from blind boys from alabama with them and I really enjoyed his contributions. had been years since i'd seen nmas, still quite enjoyable. had my fill after 2 hours and got out of there, looks like they played another 5 or 6 songs. the number of 20 something females at the show was quite surprising.

    It was ok. The bun is way too thick so it might be better as a double.

    ate there friday night and concur, burger was serviceable but didn't leave me wanting for a return trip.

    Can't decide if Bhanu being an actor means this is all an act, or if he is just a supremely unstable individual. He has good intentions but absolutely no ability to manage his emotions.

    interesting. it seems almost impossible for someone to be that terrible at the game...combined with probst doubling down on saying he would cast him again it makes me believe he was an actor. 

  10. a fight just about broke out after the game last night because a young guy said something negative about pierce and a bunch of blue hairs went apeshit on him. thought i was about to watch a senior citizen get his ass whipped.
