just ordered tickets for my girlfriend and i to see stephen malkmus on april 7th in calgary. i am pumped as i used to live in toronto, and could see shows every week. ive been living in the mountains for the last 5 years though and with calgary being the closest city at 3 hours away, and them not getting nearly as many good shows as toronto, vancouver or montreal it has been tough.

no get up kids love?
come on the 4 minute mile is amazing"4 Minute Mile" is a great album too. Somehow it didn't make my drunken list of 11 from the 90s haha. GUK were very good live back in the day, but they never impressed me as much as Braid or the Promise Ring. TPR/Texas is the Reason tour around the time of "30 Degrees Everywhere" ('96) was easily the best show I've ever seen.

I saw get up kids open for JEW in early '97 Woodson had just came out. Antarctica (Eric Richter from Christy Front Drive) was the opening act. My friend put the show on we used to be close with Jim Adkins. GUK blew the doors off the stage and JEW almost got booed off the crowd started chanting for GUK to come back out. Eric Richter came out and sang with JEW when they played "Digits" overall it was a great night.

I have a certain sentimentality for the brand of ignant thug shit coming out of the dirty south a while back, though it's more novelty than respect. Cash money millionaires getcha roll on, what?

Doom nominated for the best rolled L's
And they wondered how he dealt with stress so wellWild guess? You could say he stay sedated
Some say Buddha'd, some say faded
Someday pray that he will grow a foreign barn full
Recent research show it's not so darn harmful, trueSometimes you might need to detox
It can help you with your rhyme flow and your beat boxIs this the greatest rap cd ever? I go back and forth between this, reasonable doubt, and aquemini for best ever.

Love it ohhighyo, probably listen to that album at least once a week at work.
Recently though more than anyone else I find myself listening to joey bada$$
If you have an hour his 1999 mixtape is worthwhile listening if you are unfamiliar
