<![CDATA[Comments from tigerpop]]> <![CDATA[Comments from tigerpop]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on A Long Listmaking Exercise For A Long Weekend]]> I was hoping you'd go with Pump for '89, but a good pick nonetheless.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Natasha Shneider, R.I.P.]]> SO SAD. Eleven's self-titled album is one of my all-time favorite used-CD finds.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Darkness Lead Singer Returns, Hot Leg In Tow]]> Um, hi. I had never seen that video before. Oh my holy fuck.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Extreme's New Queen Homage Sure Beats Queen + Paul Rodgers]]> @musicquizking: I know I'm repeating myself, but I saw Saigon Kick open for Extreme sometime around '92, and yes, you are correct sir.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Do Not Fuck With Josh Homme]]> @Paul D: Bill Hicks was one of the greatest thinkers that ever did stand-up comedy. He was a "reader" too, to use his own terminology--he stopped using the "f" word not so long after his career started to take off, presumably because he wised up and realized it wasn't an acceptable thing to say. (It was the turn of the '90s after all.)

Translation: Josh Homme is a 12-year-old and a bully. But I still wouldn't throw a bottle at him.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Marky Mark Spurns Reunited Funky Bunch, Worries What The Children Would Think]]> @imnotthatguyanymore: I almost misread that last bit as "P.M. Dawn." Come to think of it, maybe they should reunite--Arrested Development is still touring, after all.

And thanks for bringing up Everlast--now I'm amply prepared for his sure to be fucking brilliant cover of "Folsom Prison Blues." No, really, thanks a lot.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Clear Channel Gives Your Mersh Rock Correspondent A Considerate Gift]]> @2ironic4u: Harvey Danger is still around, yes? Their first record was one great single and a lot of meh, but their next couple records were great.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on The Future Of Music Reviewing]]> How dare a band that's released eight studio albums play songs from anything but the first one! Long live grunge-rock! Grrr!

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Found: Junk Yard Outside Polson, Montana. Under Driver's Seat of Old Tour Bus. Signed On Back: "Dear Rusty- Summer '86 Forever! Poison Forever. Rock Forever. Love Forever, Roxie."]]> I IZ SEREEUS MUSISHUN

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on "Nashville Star": Should The Sixth Season Be My First?]]> @Chris N.: If I didn't know any better, I would think that was written by Trey Parker and Matt Stone.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on New Video Hints Mike Myers Less Than Two Weeks From Claiming America's Anti-Comedy Crown]]> OW MY EYES. I can't believe I actually just tried to watch that after reading the description.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Collective Soul, Live And Blues Traveler: Touring Together, Remembering Together]]> @trojanjustin: However, Birds of Pray is easily one of the worst titles ever.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Kiss Plans Reality Show To Find Replacements For The Whole Band]]> Who even needs the real thing anymore? We already have Mini Kiss.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Metallica Wants Bloggers To Hear, Not Blog, New Album]]> The Unforgivable.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Prepare Yourself For The Schedule, Smell Of Bonnaroo]]> Damn. I was really gunning for a Kanye West walk-on during Jack Johnson's set.

On another note, I'm noticing a trend. Whenever Pearl Jam does one of these big stinky-hippy fests, the other stages are dark during their set. Metallica can't even make that happen . . . but somehow Widespread Panic can?

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Tori Amos Departs From Epic, Prepares Her Own Indie Journey]]> @owenmeany: I saw her last fall (still have a soft spot for her live show) and the place was sold the hell out. Doubt that was a fluke. I think she'll make out just fine with this new venture.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on 'Sex' Kills 'Indy' in an All-Estrogen Blockbuster Weekend]]> Them hates our freedom.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on 'Sex' Kills 'Indy' in an All-Estrogen Blockbuster Weekend]]> @mitchel_stevens: Them is rude and smells bad.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on "Dunkin Donuts is one of our <em>sponsors</em>," Idiot!]]> Go fuck yourself, San Diego.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Radiohead Dethrones Nirvana As Kings Of The Modern-Rock List Realm]]> "Waiting Room" always makes it onto this type of list, but do any modern-rock stations actually play it?

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Art Alexakis & Some Guys Calling Themselves Everclear Escape To Guantanamo Bay]]> @Superawesomerad: To be fair, he's 75 years old.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Foo Fighters' Bid To Get Noticed By Smoking Gun Finally Succeeds]]> @brasstax: That explains the choice of opening act for the upcoming Foo tour.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Foo Fighters' Bid To Get Noticed By Smoking Gun Finally Succeeds]]> It's got its moments, but it's nothing compared to the Iggy & the Stooges rider . . . a fact the rider itself denotes on page 4.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Rocklahoma Adds Fifth Day; Oklahoma Beer Distributors Very Psyched]]> @Maura Johnston: They're the same weekend?! I'm torn! The only thing that could break the tie is if Sub Pop gets the Nirvana reunion.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Rocklahoma Adds Fifth Day; Oklahoma Beer Distributors Very Psyched]]> (dear god why am i looking at the ticketing site)

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on R. Kelly's Woes Extend To Allegations Of Bribery, Ball-Hogging Being Hurled His Way]]> I saw Robert perform two years ago. The batshit insanity made the show 100 times better.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Cindy McCain: You'll Never Get My Money, Losers!]]> See you next Tuesday!

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on John McCain's Heartfelt Mother's Day Message]]> "It's so cold in here. Eddie, what time is it?"

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on "Don't Forget The Lyrics" Has A Billy Vera Moment]]> Nice lip sync, Billy! You too, "pedal steel" guitar guy! Gosh, I miss the 1980s.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on New Weezer Song Showcases Rivers Cuomo's Medley-Writing Ambitions (Or Something Like That)]]> @HomefrontRadio: While your math is about right--3 to 2, so far, with the latest as-yet-undecided--the first two records are legitimately great. Let's fight.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Panic At The Disco Play With Dolls]]> @thearcanemodel: The new one's OK, as it turns out. Not quite up to par with the Girlfriend-Altered Beast-Blue Sky stretch, but about as goood as "In Reverse," which is actually better than you might remember. But seriously, track down "Kimi Ga Suki"--it's easily one of his three or four best.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Stephen King Opens Up iTunes, Finds Yet Another Listicle Lurking Underneath]]> King's list is almost as bad as Bob Lefsetz'. Almost. Big points for "Tube Snake Boogie" making the top spot--though I could have sworn it was "Tube Steak Boogie," which is actually only 10% more revolting than the real title.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Dave Grohl To Metallica: "Please Don't Make Another Shitty Record. Also, I'm Available!"]]> @R. Morast: Hey now! (But, yeah, good point.)

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Dave Grohl To Metallica: "Please Don't Make Another Shitty Record. Also, I'm Available!"]]> I'd buy that shit if Grohl played the drums. Lars is fucking AWFUL.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on New Weezer Song Showcases Rivers Cuomo's Medley-Writing Ambitions (Or Something Like That)]]> ...although this six-minute thing could really end around 2:10.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on New Weezer Song Showcases Rivers Cuomo's Medley-Writing Ambitions (Or Something Like That)]]> Hmm. Weezer has decided to not suck this time around. Good for them.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Congratulations, Billy Ocean: No More Love On The Run]]> Did Big Boi ever succeed in his quest to legally change his name to Billy Ocean?

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Nicole Scherzinger Sings National Anthem, Avoids Adding Line About Her Genitalia]]> She can sing, but she's no Maya Rudolph.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Metallica To Headline KROQ's Weenie Roast, Not Suck?]]> @walkmasterflex: You can cry on my shoulder. In-fucking-explicable.

]]> <![CDATA[tigerpop commented on Panic At The Disco Play With Dolls]]> @thearcanemodel: Kimi Ga Suki is fucking AWESOME. The new Matthew Sweet is sitting on my desk, but I'm hesitant to go near it for fear of the potential mediocrity.
