Legitimately one of the coolest live music stories I've ever heard. Maybe the coolest. Definitely a story your whole family will be sharing for years on end.
That said, I am laughing at your daughter telling her friends that story. "That's awesome! What did the hat say?" She looks down, shuffles her feet and sheepishly mutters, "a trucker hat with 'I love girls' on it".

Grant Hill is right though - if he plays and he shouldn’t he could really fuck it up. Grant knows more than anyone.
Hill thinks Houston’s best player should sit out against Duke? Strange…. -
Cryer had to make that lay up. Brutal miss.

Did I hear them say Vescovi has the flu and is in the locker room? Am I crazy or should they get him the fuck out of there?

Christ, Love was completely useless that game. What a no show.

I've spent a fair amount of time in the studio with Britt and the Spoon crew. I can confidently assert that Britt's knowledge of rock is "encyclopedic", to an insane degree. If it was recorded and got any airplay, he knows it. I think that's why you hear so many diverse influences in Spoon's music, from Prince to the Stones to the Kinks to the Replacements, the Clash, the Isley Brothers, you name it.
That makes total sense. Their 25-30 years is very varied. That said, they have Britt's voice and the just off-kilter sound dissonance and soundscape maximalism that is always unmistakably Spoon.

Can't remember if posted . . . don't care . . . you can really get the feeling Britt appreciates Westerberg's writing on the second tune here ("Alex Chilton"):
We didn't do much this year, except for Luck Reunion and bouncing around South Congress on Sat. We caught English Teeth and were about to leave until they introduced Britt and we stayed for his songs. I don't know much about The Replacements, but Alex Chilton definitely could have fit right in on Girls Can Tell. Pretty obvious that Britt was influenced by them early on. Thanks for posting.
Luck was a great time, once again. I have been 6 (7?) times now. Just love it. My favorite set of the day was Texas Wild with Walker Lukens and The Texas Gentlemen. It was all covers of Texas artists with special guests throughout. From what I remember, but I am missing a few:
The Texas Gentlemen - That's Right (You're Not from Texas)
Walker Lukens - "Cheap Sunglasses"
David Ramirez - "All my Exes Live in Texas"
Not sure who they were - "Say My Name"
Steve Earle - DIdn't know the song
Rainbow Girls - "Goodbye Earl"
Sarah Jaffe - "Angel Flying too Close to the Ground"
Vaden Todd Lewis (Toadies) - "Since You've Been Gone"
Matthew Logan Vasquez (Delta Spirit) - "Pancho and Lefty"
It was just one of those transcendent live music sets that has everyone locked in and having a great time. So joyful. "Since You've Been Gone" brought the fucking house down.

The way Kiku screens herself from anjin so that it seems like Mariko is talking and how the tension builds from there was so well done.
Mariko couldn't even finish translating because she knew that was a one way train to fucktown.

In. The original was one of my favorites and I liked the last one.

It took me a few episodes to get into it, but ended up enjoying the series. I thought it was an interesting resolution of the mystery. There were still a couple too many storylines but worth the time.
Sven was my guy. -
Horrible call. If anything, it was on the other dude from behind.

Huge news for the 2 dozen people out there who care about women's basketball
Can you help me understand the psychology in coming to a thread you don't care about in order to make fun of people that are interested in a topic? Does it help you feel superior in some way? I am legitimately curious.

My understanding is that it is an open secret that she is gay. She lived with a woman in Waco for years, no idea if it's the same set up at LSU.

This. That guy has to be a bit, but they say he's legitimately that terrible.

The only thing that was bungled was the collective actions of millions of nosy gossip mongers who mistakenly thought they were entitled to know her whereabouts and all the goings-on that were none of their fucking business until she wanted it to be.
Yeah, she chose this life in the limelight but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t deserve some time away without explaining it to the whole world.
The gossip mongers are out of control in the UK. I concede that but disagree with the rest.
The people of England are entitled to their business. This is not a private citizen. Their source of income is public funds and entire reason for being at this point is to be a public face. They 100% owe transparency to the public. I understand some time to work through it with doctors and your family, but you need to communicate with the public (who again, 100% pays for the largesse) ASAP. Hiding behind photoshops and fake photo ops is irresponsible to the people that pay for their lives. -
I love that every time aTm gets out of their bubble, people are “wtf is going on with these weirdos?” With social media, more and more people are seeing their absurdity and it’s great. We had to deal with that shit without many people knowing about it for too long.- 1

As someone who liked AC well enough and it was my first WA movie, I’m hearing I should watch Royal Tennebaums and Grand Budapest next?
I think that’s probably fair. I would throw Bottle Rocket in there because I love it so much, but he’s not really playing with the Wes Anderson style yet. It’s just a damn fun movie. Tennenbaums and GPH are probably the most accessible of his Wes Anderson-y movies.
Like someone said above, his movies tend to age incredibly well over multiple viewings, so if you don’t get the hype after seeing those, I think that’s fine and fair. If you have time (and the inclination to delve in), seeing those twice may be worth it.- 2

Out of Sight is my favorite movie of all time.
This is a very valid opinion. That movie rules so hard and never gets old. -
How many 3’s is Vermont planning on airballing tonight?

This tourney has been been kind of a drag so far (other than KU last night), but that was a real fun 10 minutes with two games going down to the wire.

The officials tried real hard to give it to Auburn, but they kept screwing up.
How many bunnies and FT’s did they miss late? Yikes. -
They need to be able to review that call. The NBA does it with Coach’s Challenges
