Well, we at least we agree on the best album. But Days Go By is already number four!! You must fucking love the thing. I also agree that Rise and Fall is a very solid album. Probably would be my number 5.

I was running the Bumper Cars at the park yesterday and in the first 2 hours, I had four kids cry because they were too short to ride. (one of them was a retarded child, so I felt bad, but rules are rules) Little do the kids know that if their parents weren't dumb asses, they would've read the sign and realized their child was too short. Then you have the parents that think they can sneak kids that are too small past the ride operators. Well, you're not sneaking them past me you motherfuckers, you're not sneaking them past me!

@PBD: Great for you getting a job PBD, hope it pans out well for you.

Yeah, there isn't a song I don't like on it anymore. Shame on me for ever doubting them

Just seen the cover of the new Rolling Stone - has their been a cooler, more rocking-looking rock star than Billy in the late 90s?

Speaking of Rolling Stone, they gave Oceania a 3-star review. At least they gave Offspring a 2-star!
And about a cooler looking rock star than Billy, I can think of many.

Just saw the Amazing Spiderman in 3D, quite a kickass movie!

His baldy vampire look around Adore is definitely the coolest anyone has ever looked!

The only Rock Star that I can think of that looks as cool as Billy did in the late 1990s is Jesus with a Stratocaster and a 5 / 7 Pistol in the other hand.

In pertinence to the late 90s, I think Mike Patton and Trent Reznor (Fragile era) all looked pretty badass.
Plus, how can you beat Jim Morrison with his beard?



Now there's a guy that looks ready to rock, go to jail, and drink! And not necessarily in that order!
Oh yeah, now that Oceania has been released, I can make threads again! What useless threads can I clutter the forums with now?? *Sees BlueCzarina looking at me unamused* I mean...ermmm...nevermind, cant think of any threads at the moment!

Someone called out for work today so they called me in. Gotta love money but damn, I planned to relax today!

Interesting article on NME ranking SPs albums. I don't agree with it, but it's an interesting read at least.
www.nme.com/blog/index.php?blog=1&title=...more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1

gonna be watching All That and Kenan and Kel every weeknight for the forseeable future reliving the childhood i kinda sorta had for about a year if my parents would let me watch it which they wouldn't... oh the memories!

Am I the only one who is also in modern classical music?

Has anyone else seen this photograph?

I have to tell you, when I saw N.M.E. mention the man who wrote Geek USA and For Martha in the same sentence as the man who wrote Purple Rain and When Doves Cry I stopped reading the article. It's like mentioning Jesus and Osama Bin Laden in the same sentence, there's really no comparison.

I'm no fan of Prince, but he truly was a groundbreaking artist, just as Billy was. I disagree with you completely.

Oh come on, I bet everyone here would love a "List your favorite Pumpkins albums from best to worst" thread! It's a completely original idea that we've never done before!

@Ryon: Agreed, Prince was groundbreaking. And that's a kickass pic of Mike and Jimmy, I wonder when it was taken? I wonder if BC was around? Maybe he took the picture?

Thanks!
I work at a company that does online gaming, I'm doing admin work there. Sometimes there is a lot of down time, like now. Occasionally someone will stop by and say hi-but that's not too often. I guess it's good since I'm pretty introverted and slightly agoraphobic these days.

Also, I have seen that picture of Mike and Jimmy-makes me wonder if it was all planned out.

^You work at an online gaming company? That's kickass!

It's sad to think that no matter how much music you listen to, there's still going to be a TON of great music you'll never hear that has been and is currently being made. Depressing way to think but true.

yeah, i feel sorry for all the people who die from now til next friday... no Dark Knight Rises the worst thing would be when someone with an incurable disease dies... the day before they find the cure. life's a bitch

@PB, introverts unite! or... at least kinda stand around with our hands in our pockets trying to make small talk

hmm. I just read that Dennis Flemion of The Frogs is presumed dead after going missing on Saturday. I guess he was swimming in a lake in Wisconsin. That's too bad. They were funny. I always liked the bit on Vieuphoria.

pitchfork.com/news/47110-rip-dennis-flemion-of-the-frogs/

^^ NO WAY.

@Pug92, yeah. Pretty introverted these days.

Also, our office is completely dead because everyone went to Comic-Con.

FUCK YEAH! I can't wait for Dark Knight Rises! It's gonna be kickass! Yeah, life is a bitch. As Nas says, "Life's a bitch and then you die, that's why we get high, cause you never know when you're gonna go!" Well, technically he didn't say that, but I'm pretty sure he wrote the lyrics.

@PBD: So I take it you didn't go to Comic Con?
