Both Replacement songs you named are on that album. I like The Ledge.

I haven't listened to Tool in ages.
Staind - Outside"
They're really good too. Tool, Staind, A Perfect Circle, 30 Seconds to Mars. They all have slots..."
Yeah I am a fan of all of them.


That sounds like it was an awesome concert, llibrro. I'm embarrased to say that I haven't listened to much Big Star or Alex Chilton.

Colour me green

Wow that sounds like an amazing experience :)
This past Christmas I bought my best friend A Man Called Destruction: The Life And Music of Alex Chilton. I'll probably have to read it once he's done.

Not (hate 'em). Like 'em! Is it just me, or does some of this sound a little like Tom Verlaine and Television?

Well, I don't know much about Television. Start with Big Star's ironically titled Third and go from there. You won't regret--I don't think, although not 100% sure I know your musical tastes. But anybody who loves Steely Dan can't be all bad. I would say this is mostly a bunch of love songs but they're beautiful. Definitely worthy of a spot in your collection.
I've heard Marquee Moon and thought it was great but that's all I've heard. Actually I don't think Alex liked Tom. Alex was working with The Cramps of all bands, who hated everybody except the Ramones and when Alex wasn't happy with their sound he would tell them they sounded like Television. http://goo.gl/WhH92q

It was a great time. Memphis was once to rock and blues like what Nashville was to country, when country was still country. Not so much anymore. Lot's of tragedy there. Anyway. The book would probably be very good.

I can definitely hear the similarities. Television sounds more polished. Alex Chilton I think was more chaotic and always looking for the next thing. They did have connections tho.

I enjoyed the samples, and I definitely want to listen to A.C. some more. No, I'm not all bad, just a little. :)

Go with Big Star instead...and when did I say you were bad? And what kind of "bad" are you? Nothing wrong with a little bad.
Oh, now I remember what kink of bad you are: the Steely Dan lover bad. Sorry

No problem. Now I'm a kink of bad.

Hells yeah! Good ol' Sub Pop.

I'm glad you like it, Stephen. C.C. has that Bowie sound, imo.

Whoah, that is supercool, llibrro! Do you have this book?

That's a sad thought.

I found it on Amazon, and unfortunately it's out of my price range. But I downloaded a free short story by the author:
