    Full credit to Suffolk County for sticking with their homeboy Brian Zeno.

    Also, a massive "bleeehhh" to the county that had Muse. A shitty version of Radiohead with more anthems....yeah!

    Can you tell I've been drinking tonight?
    :p

    There's a muse song or two that I won't immediately change the station, but even comparing them to Radiohead is a heinous slander. I guess if you took the worst songs off of Pablo Honey and said "This shit is great! Let's do this but worse!" you might approximate something like Muse.

    A friend passed away Tuesday after a long battle with MS. There was a wake today. I had a Jameson pickleback as part of a toast to Bobby. I have had no desire to drink more. And man, if you watched that RSL game tonight and were a fan of RSL, you might be really tempted.

    One that makes the map sus is Brian Eno. Dude's sold like 100K albums worldwide. Maybe if you count producing?

    ********ing autocorrect. Brian ENO. not Zeno. Eno is from Suffolk county. No idea where Brian Zeno is from.


    Upon further review, it might have been autocorrect. Might have been beverage-related.

    Surely more than that if you count his Roxy time?

    Have you seen them live or checked out any of their early work?




    Muse became one of the biggest headliners of the past 25 years, their live shows have always been amazing. I first saw them at a small(ish) venue in SF with Modest Mouse, Franz Ferdinand, the Killers and Interpol...Muse absolutely stole the show. I've seen them since in arenas and headlining festivals (Coachella and Outside Lands)...damn good, every time. Admittedly I got kind of tired of them eventually and don't listen to them much these days...but as a live rock show they were among the best in the world for a very long time.

    I kind of lost interest but I still have an appreciation for them.

    Listening to this today (his latest album is really good), looking forward to seeing him in Troutdale Saturday...

    The other day I heard The Smiths playing in the background. I asked my father if he ever listened to them, said nope, found them too mainstream.

    Anyway, Bigmouth Strikes Again is a fun jam to play on guitar.

    The Smiths too mainstream? Wow, your father has some eclectic tastes, or was he living in the U.K. during their heyday?

    Motley Crue & Queen were big headliners. So what?

    Both my parents were heavily involved in the music field before I was born. Mom was a New Wave type but was also a fan of rock, punk, and certain Motown acts, my dad has an eclectic taste, but it's nowhere near as out there as mine. He will boast that he was listening to Yello's Oh Yeah well before Ferris Bueller. I jokingly call him The Hipster because somehow, he discovers artists that will eventually go big. I think in another life, he'd be an A&R guy instead of an engineer. He correctly predicted that Lorde would hit it big. He would play Royals around the house months before that song took off.

    My dad is a lot more open minded on music, while my mom can respect artists, she wasn't afraid of voicing her dislike. She despised Bob Dylan and hated Joni Mitchell, for instance. She had a lot of respect for Beyonce when it came to performing and she would argue that Prince and U2 were the best performers she had ever seen.

    To say the least, my parents weren't exactly the "turn it down!" type of parents. They were the parents who would be talking about how they saw this band in a small venue in Detroit in 1983.

    Queen with Freddy Mercury would’ve been a blast. I saw them some years ago (really wanted to hear Brian May play) but obviously not the same, hard when you lose your super charismatic front man.

    Motley Crue not so much, for me anyway.

    Your parents are a lot cooler than mine as far as music is concerned. Both of mine did like the Beatles. In fact, my dad saw them when they played Memorial Stadium in Baltimore, but he said the sound was crappy---I guess similar to that famous Shea show.

    All live sound was crappy back then-- no stage monitors, no room analysis, very limited experience all around..
