I wish. Haven't had a beer since Sunday.

I've got a bottle of Harviestoun Old Engine Oil I had for Christmas I could send you!

6% and described on the label as 'Viscous, Chocolatey and Bitter'!

Apparently it reminded the brewer of 'gloopy engine oil'.

Not sure when I might try it !

It's got excellent ratings and appears to be available in the States. Must seek it out.

EDIT: Doesn't look like it's here in Texas, but I see some possibilities for my next trip to Florida.

Well it worked. I even checked flights out to Palm Springs, but I don't think I can afford the hit this year.

My dad got very exasperated and kept telling me to go, until I told him I have essays to do that week.

I'm just about okay with it actually. I looked through and I have seen, or will have seen, most of the bands there by the time the festival rolls around. Really I should buy tickets for Phoenix...

Arcade Fire.

*thumbs up*

Windmill, who is like Arcade Fire but a bit more whiny.

That's how you always describe them!

Cage the Elephant!!!

Ad what exactly is that supposed to mean?

I'm listening to Rory Gallegher Live in Europe - Messing with the kid.

I have no idea.

Radio 5. Waiting for a press conference on this Doncaster business to finish so Simon Mayo's film slot can start.

I will check out the recommendation you gave me! In return, if you haven't heard it before, find Hymie's Basement. It's Yoni Wolf's side project and it's fantastic.

I was thinking of recommending that one to you guys. I love it. Ben & Joey, Smile My Brains Out etc

The other guy in Hymie's is Andy Broder from The Fog, who are pretty good too, but you probably know that already. Also Dose One's album with Boom Bip is quite an experience, amazing lyrics and left field production.
