I haven't listened to his show for 10 years.

Satellite radio is definitely something I am considering though. Commercial free music and talk is worth $12 a month to me right now. I have friends who love it.


hummmmm. i, up to this point, have not listened to anything but talk radio(in the past 10 years or so). the state of music radio in los angeles was quite grim. i assumed the same would be here? but pay for radio? in a few years, maybe i will become that desperate. no disrespect intended towards those who are more insightful than me.

so, do we get tom leykis out here? frosty heidi and frank?

I saw that guy on the O'Reilly Factor. Those two sure got into it.


I like O'Reilly, but he appeared dorky and out of touch talking with Howard Stern (especially obvious since they are almost the same age and grew up 5 miles from each other). Stern came off as pretty charming and a shrewd business man who knows exactly what he is doing.

I guess he does: $200 mil Eek


Hunter, O'Reilly amazes me. One minute he will say something that I am in total agreement with then he will say something that completly irritates me. I thought Stern was being a jerk about the coffee mugs, breif cases and whatever crap O'Reilly is selling. I was impressed O'Reilly gives the proceeds to charity, he did not seem like the type to me. In short he often appears dorky and out of touch, but somehow I still like him. Stern has made a lot of money with the worse taste possible. I have seen Stern degrade way too many people to really like him.

TBird, Are you still involved with Mojo Rib despite your change of location? I have heard of musicians collaborating on cds and parts of albums being recorded in different parts of the country or in different countries alltogether. Technology in the modern age I guess. What is the status of your band?

Absolutely nothing, off topic posts are neccesary for the health of the board in my opinion. I see you are new here. I would like to refer you to a section of the board that is far more appropriate for your concern of wine relevance.

While gauche, it's not without basis. 50 cent ain't my bag, but here are my Top 5 "rap" (hip hop, actually) albums I'd happily listen to while drinking wine:

A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders
Madvillain - Madvillainy
DJ Dangermouse w/ Jay-Z - The Grey Album
Kanye West - Late Registration
Common - Be

Expand your horizons, yo.

Never said they didn't. I'm sure there are people who think there is "nothing better" than the Carpenters and some Yellowtail. No judgement, just lack of understanding.... Confused

sorry i misinterpreted "You have a lot of living to do"... music, far less than wine, is COMPLETELY subjective. i know you know this, it just sounded a bit judgemental....
purplehazepurplehazeMember
TBird - Agreed that music is much more subective and personal than wine. I guess my comment was somewhat judgemental, but less so as a critique of "G's" tastes, than of the concept that "there's nothing better." There's always something better to listen to or to drink, until you die. Razz Unless you're chugging Cristal, that is.... Eek

Now, listening to a little Oliver "Tuku" Mtukudzi. I am the only one I know who likes it. And I am right! Wink

Oh, and Gentleman farmer...... that was a completely Festiva and cometspider conflagration. I was on the opposite side of the table!! Big Grin

How is it? I've been meaning to pick it up.

Very good. She was doing a few of the songs on it when she was recording Tigers Have Spoken and at her show at the Phoenix in early 2005, so it was nice to finally hear them polished. It's also very short, about 35 min, but I think you can get it for only $12 too. Go get it.

I remember the group's name, but quite honestly could not tell you what they are known for, or if any of them split off to form other groups. So, the answer is...maybe? There were a lot of groups from the 80's that were doing some good stuff. What music do you recommend of theirs?
