The oddest thing I saw today was four girls in "VOTE GREEN PARTY OR DIE" t-shirts shouting, "Go Obama!"

Hipster irony?

I'm gonna watch the flux thread on Susan's board with a big grin on my face. Bungalow Bill's really gonna be lost.

Dude actually made a poll years ago asking who was the greatest president. On said list he had the givens like Washington and Lincoln and Roosevelt but he also had W on there. He also voted for W and wrote a lengthy thesis explaining why.

Bungalow Bill's gonna have a field day on Susan's board . John McCain's loss is a disgrace for every hard-working American . If you don't understand that, you are not American .

Guess I'm not "American", then.

Dots and Loops is a good album. So is Sound-Dust. Aluminum Tunes is pretty awesome. Mars Audiac Quintet has some catchy songs, but I prefer the loungy-sounding vibes of the later albums to the organ drone of MAQ. I've been trying to get into Emperor Tomato Ketchup, but I think I'm going to have to listen to it quite a few more times to start appreciating it. It seems like the least accessible of all the Stereolab albums I've heard so far.

Don't know how legal this is, but when my college radio station broadcast AM back in the forties and fifties, they hooked into the municipal water supply, and used it as a sort of giant antennae. This allowed us to reach all sorts of random places--possibly a less conventional option for extending the reach of an AM station without forking out for a bunch of antenaes...just use the pipes!

Hey, I have a question. Is the July 4th 1981 show circulating? I know that a few clips were shown in American Band and Endless Harmony, but is the whole show circulating like the July 5th show?

There is a great concert from 1988 that is a pro shot. I can't remember where it's from though. I think it was Arizona. It was on YouTube, but the guy that had it was suspended. Carl sang a great version of Forever at the show.

Maybe this has already been covered, but is there any way to tell if a 1966 pressing of "Pet Sounds" was made from the L.A. or the N.Y. master? For instance, by looking at the number stamped in the runout grooves?
