Vince Young scores a 6 on the Wonderlic?

Just...No.

Yet another reason I'm out of touch with new school gaming.

Three hours ago in Chicago!

Lightning Strikes Twice
Sylvie
Who Do You Think You Are
Don't Back Down
Oh My
Good Thing
Split Screen
Side Streets
Last Orders for Gary Stead
Spring
Stars Above Us
Teenage Winter

Encore:
Like a Motorway
Nothing Can Stop Us

Too short! Not even close to sold out! And another bad Metro crowd full of mocking hipsters. Damnit, what is wrong with people? This place doesn't deserve the best band ever. Still, definitely the highlight of an otherwise dull midwest winter. The new songs translate well live and they brought Debsey over for a stellar "Who Do You Think You Are". Thought it was strange when the crowd went nuts for "Like A Motorway". How do people here know this song so much better than anything else that they've released? Has it been on a soundtrack or something? Weird. Anyway, here's hoping this isn't the end like all the rumors are saying, because I need them to come back. At least so I can hear "Avenue" one more time.

"There's a line in that song that goes, 'So go tell Britney and go tell Gwen,' and I guess part of what I'm railing against on that song is this preternaturally happy music sung by kids and written by 40-year-old Swedish men."

I like you, so just please stop talking.

Remember that Arctic Monkeys article I posted a few months back? Well, with how the U.K. album charts have gone this week, it's all kicked into overdrive obviously. It's not that I want to help feed the machine or anything, but they've sort of forced my hand. Again, let me restate, upon hearing the songs originally, I felt pretty indifferent about it all. It's just that I have a young, impressionable mind and taking some recent events under consideration, the tide may be turning.

Harry Potter is cooler than you
Mutya wouldn't let his happen!
He is not Jesus, though he might as well be (even though he's WRONG WRONG WRONG)

I admit, I was dead wrong about these guys. They are the best guitar band of all time, as they've shown themselves to have impeccable taste. Please buy their album when it's available here, go to their shows, buy a shirt, and take it to the next level by Paypal donating to them or something. I say this in all seriousness. I love them and I wish them the best.

A lot of people hate Robin Williams for all the overly sentimental, manipulative dross he's put out over the years, but I think he's awesome. And here's the reason why (besides Hook of course).

"Battlefield 2 - the 2 stands for 2 in the morning."
