Re: What are you listening to right now?

Difficult task. I would say they are probably one of the most quality-consistent band around, and there is no album of theirs that I was ever disappointed with (admittedly, I have yet to get acquainted with pre- Nixon stuff). This said, if I had to choose only one album, I'm with you on OH (Ohio) . ...

Re: What are you listening to right now?

Speaking of Lambchop, I am just listening to a leadoff track from their new album.
It's called If Not, I'll Just Die and it's lovely.

You can download it (legally) here:

Re: Your LEAST favorite Elvis song and why

I would probably choose something off The Delivery Man (never liked that album) or one of the Andersen-opera songs from Secret, Profane & Sugarcane
But I love You’ll Never Be A Man.

Re: books, books, books

I am reading Bill Bryson's "Down Under" and enjoying it immensely.
If you're looking for a book which is laugh-out-loud funny and entertaining, but also witty and insightful, then go get it.
A terrific read.

Christopher, your post made me go back and listen again to "Who Was Changed and Who was Dead". A most enjoyable record with one of my favourite songs of his, A Very Sorry Saint. And he seems to be a very nice bloke as well. I still keep an e-mail, which he sent me a couple of years ago in ...

Best wishes to Mr Ross McManus for a quick return to good health.

So glad to hear about the European tour next year. I hope we’ll get a chance to spin the Wheel here in Poland.

Re: Elvis plays Athens , Greece Oct. 26 '11

All the reports from the Revolver Tour and the previews of the European solo shows are breaking my heart.
I’d been thinking about the Warsaw concert and the songs I would like to hear from the day I heard the news, so it’s really hard to get used to the thought that I won’t see Elvis in November.

If bad ticket sales did indeed contribute to the cancellation, and if by any chance Elvis or anyone from his management reads this board from time to time, then I say this : Please, PLEASE, PLEASE reschedule the show as soon as possible, but consider changing the venue as this would possibly make ti...

Re: Elvis plays Warsaw, Poland, Nov. 15 '11

The show in Poland is cancelled "due to the very serious illness of a close family member".

Strange, as all shows "around" Warsaw date seem to go ahead as planned.
