    Just bought tickets for Isbell July 11 in Tempe. Pretty stoked because my 16yo daughter appreciates his music enough to want to go with me.

    In all seriousness, this is awesome. good for you! Not to be too preachy, but spend as much time as possible with her as you possibly can. As I’m learning (ours are 14 & 20), they grow up waayyyy too quickly. 🥲

    Hope y’all have a great time!

    beyonce, madonna, tay tay are all phenomenons.  i am conversant in madonna's 80's and 90's catalogues.  beyonce's 00's and '10's catalogue, and taylor's '14-present catalogue.  all have skills in their own rights.  madonna collided with and engaged cultural barriers in a way the other two did not regarding sexuality and female empowerment just as a result of timing.  the other two have benefited substantially from madonna's trailblazing.  beyonce undoubtedly encountered both significant challenges and a few benefits from her being african american.  bey is clearly the best dancer of the three.  taylor is easily the most talented of them musically and the best actual songwriter between them by a long, long shot and in terms of numbers, she is ridiculous to a point that is hard to fathom.  but despite her little dips here and there into controversy, she's fairly white bread though i suspect she would be the easiest to be around day to day...she seems like a class act unless you have been her boyfriend at any point.

    justify my love madonna was pretty hot for sure.  i posted that video because 11 year old me probably discovered the pleasures of jerking it while watching that video and basic instinct in the early 90's.

    dangerously in love beyonce is all-timer stuff...unbelievably melt your cock off hot.

    taylor has been cute at times and will probably hold up best over time.

    all i got.

    Estes verdad. Todos.

    No idea if this has any connection, but they're an Adidas school now. That's always a red flag to me when something is out of sorts. However, there's probably some personal connection.

    Great point and one that I actually should’ve thought of, as I’ve been in the athletic footwear industry my entire career.😅

    I have no idea what the kid’s AAU Team wears, Adi, Nike, UA, etc…but this is as viable a reason as any for UDub to be included. We all know money talks.

    Dude needs to hit the weight room.

    That’s what I told my wife.

    ”Get that chicken-chested fool off the table!” 
     

    But yeah, I like him.

     

    And if we’re taking about a 70yr old Pitino- Hell, just back up a Brinks to Coach K’s bank and “direct deposit” that shit right into his account.

    Nah, neither adieu nor audio is the best word. There are way more consonant combinations than vowels, so the faster you can eliminate those, the better--and the consonant d is not that useful on a first guess.

    Computers say least, leant, slate, and tales are the best options because you hit a good number of consonant combos and two vowels. Some of the best Wordlers I know always go 4 consonants with words like stern, shalt, slant, or crest.

    Achtung Baby is better than The Joshua Tree.

    While “Achtung” is a great album, this is lunacy.

    October is better than either

    While “Joshua Tree” & “Achtung Baby” are both great albums, ESTES VERDAD!

    I've been to a few concerts where I look around at all the grey hair and bald heads, and I think, "Please God, don't let this be my demographic."  Most recently that was at Springsteen.  

    But even more depressing than that is the rare moment where I'm traveling somewhere in Texas, and I decide to scroll the radio dial and try to find a Texas basketball broadcast, and then I pass a "classic rock" station.  And hey!  What do you know?  They're playing the SAME FUCKING 30 SONGS THAT THEY'VE BEEN PLAYING FOR 45 YEARS... with the only difference being that they've slapped a brick wall limiter on those songs, so even if I wanted to crank them up, they would be utterly unlistenable.  

    I have a coworker who I really like, and sometimes when we're at work he'll stream some classic rock on Spotify, which seems like getting a McLaren supercar and then towing it with your horse and buggy.  

     

    LOL and damn, a LOT of this hits close to home.

    I mean, I’m bald’ish (you could show a movie on my forehead) and what I do have is graying like an SOB.

    I do like classic rock (and alt, and punk, and classic country)- However, and getting back on topic, I think Springsteen is MASSIVELY overrated.😉

    (oh, and I don’t drive a mclaren)

  8. I’m curious to hear @BrickHorn’s opinion on Billy Duffy’s playing.

    i will clarify, I cannot play one single note on any musical instrument and I’m sad that I can’t/never learned. I was of the opinion as a kid/teenager that music/choir/band kids were the geeks/nerds.  I said it up thread in an earlier post, 15-18yo me was a bit of a dumbass at times.

    The rest… every once in a while but I’m much more likely to skip that stuff than I used to be

    Yup, this is me. If we’re sitting around having beers and a listening to a random playlist, cool.  But if you tee up “Hair Rock” or whatever it is on Amazon/Sirius/Apple….I’m out.
