Still Alive !
I still remember watching this on MTV and thinking it was the coolest music video:

They played it just before the presentation of the prince Wales trophy in 2012. I'll never forget that moment.I remember this song being used for the 2001 Stanley Cup finals commercials hoping the Devils would repeat, but...
Came home from work and saw the news about Daft Punk calling it quits. Not sure if I would call it an end of an era but they definitely had an extremely strong impact on electronic music and deservedly have a place cemented in history. Personally I'm not that big into electronic music but I definitely enjoyed most of their creations. "Homework" was an album that really helped introduce me more into that genre. Happy retirement to them I guess.
Now here's a song that always gets me going:
you're a Springsteen fan too? you like just about all Rock n Roll it seems,

do you like the Goo Goo Dolls?
oh ya, love bruce…..got almost all his albums, mostly on vinyl (have about 19' in my collection)
dont really know much other then the radio stuff….. i do like this though
seems they were a lot different earlier on
the Goo Goo Dolls was somewhat of a joke, I Googled "best bands from Buffalo" !!!!!
I know your disdain for Buffalo
Looks good, (he's looking right at me!) the running clear coat almost looks like fins or something!
So I made a lure. This is a big ol Rat L Trap clone I intend to use for big pike. The first coat of clear coat got a bit messed up as is obvious in the picture. I think it was just way too cold in the garage. Otherwise, though, it worked out well. The action is really good as is the sink rate and the rattle. Not bad for one of my early attempts. Carved from solid poplar, should last a while.

They say, big bait gets big fish
I once used a salt water lure in the local water reservoir, all my friends laughed at me while they had night-crawlers on little hooks, no foolin, 20 minutes later I reeled in the biggest large mouth bass any of us had ever seen !!!!
I will drag my son to see Tedeschi Trucks once this is all over. Not that they don’t make their own great music but I’d love to see them play their best covers as a full show. I regret never seeing the Allmans with Derek.
giving this legendary album a listen once again tonight…..i remember hearing it when it came out….and i wasnt even into this stuff in the 90s'…but this hit me…… its terrific
DJ Shadow: Endtroducing... [Deluxe Edition]
Just an unbelievable album, top to bottom.
Just looked up the album on Wikipedia - Dan the Automator helped engineer it. Damn, legendary.
its been a while since I gave it listen….and im still in amazement
I got to see DJ Shadow live about 15 years ago with Cut Chemist. I remember two things:
-At one point, they both put on these contraptions that had four turntables each on them, and just did some really wild sampling and scratching.
-They did a live mashup that was the singing from the "Gilligan's Island" theme over "Stairway to Heaven" - and it worked.
I'm glad DJ Shadow is still making music. You may recognize the instrumental from this more recent song of his from a car commercial that plays regularly during Devils games:
Also, best opening line from any song, ever:
"Picture this, I'm a bag of dicks. / Put me to your lips."
