des moines has never had a venue like the mews before. it's a traditional style music venue where bands of all sorts can play WITHOUT regulars and a particular scene tied to it. that's what a good music venue is. not every music venue SHOULD be a landmark hangout like mary's was. if you go to a city...

that image creeps me out on a number of levels girl on the left looks like she is wearing a latex mask homeboy in the center looks like a drunk zombie that probably explains why leatherface won't actually touch his rotting flesh with her lips awful form on those shockers, I don't know what he expect...

BTW the SEO rapper better watch his fucking back.

Some friends and I made a music video. Check it out.

Way too much time on our hands.

thanks, 8-post.

The song "Smokin" by Boston is exactly 4 minutes 20 seconds long.

Yeah, I know. I wasn't replying to you, either.. just adding to what I posted before.

really, I don't care what anyone classifies them as.

I just find it lulzy that some people are so quick to exclude a band from a genre that bucks tradition and standards by definition.

Sleater-Kinney is one of my favorite bands ever. I can second this. I'm glad that Sleater-Kinney isn't a punk band, because I would probably like them a lot less. I'm not really interested in listening to wholly retroactive music that acts like there haven't been any worthy advancements in music in...

everything else aside, that profile picture -is- really awful.

Colorado has these gross shiny brown centipedes that live in the ground. I've been running into a lot of them while doing yard work. Thankfully I haven't spotted a house centipede yet... just lots of little house spiders. Silverfish and centipedes are two different things, though they are both reall...

From my family to yours...


Warm greetings for this most special time of the year.

double dash is best


not that I've played the wii vers yet, but it is pretty much impossible to beat double dash


super mario kart is only good if you are in 1992

"I'll speak before any group that invites me," Zirkle said Monday. "I've spoken on an African-American radio station in Atlanta."

First Hitler, now this? He'll never be nominated now.

No, Apple would just put them in iPods. Apple doesn't manufacture storage media. Neither does Microsoft, or Creative, or pretty much any portable digital audio player manufacturer. Apple designs the enclosure and software to operate the device. The screen, logic board, headphone jack, hard drive, et...

Digital Rights Management. Copy protection.

So, when I hear that apple wants a even larger share of the recorded music industry, I have to say Fuck them! That has got to be the dumbest idea thus far. It has taken me a long time to acept computer files as property that is worth as much as something I can hold in my hand. I-tunes is not only a...

I don't like this idea. While it seems good in the short term ($5/mo is nothing if it means that the lawsuits will stop) it's only going to prolong the current state of the music industry. The RIAA's role as gatekeeper to music as a business and art form are waning. We're still in the early days of ...

who's next on the "music that sucked yet everyone had a boner for in 2002" retrospective?

Fuck Mediacom and Qwest. They both charge way too much if you're not getting a special and both of their customer service depts suck the big one. Hook up some free wireless and tell them to fuck off. Poor Man's Wi-Fi antenna http://www.exe64.com/mirror/wokfi/ I signed up and started using Qwest ser...

22nd and University was purported to be the worst intersection on the West side of town by my driving instructor in high school. Eh. It's not so bad, unless you have a hard time understanding dual turn lanes. Des Moines is usually pretty good when it comes to street layout.. rarely do you have stran...

I would go but I am broke due to moving. I will hear all about it from the 9348573948579 co-workers who are going.

I just bought a laptop and have wifi at both the Studio and at DuBay's and since I got rid of a home phone years ago and only use mobile, I decided to go with Sprints EvDo. Most of their smart phones have a use as modem feature. It's a little slower then cable or DSL but you can use it anywhere and...

I just ordered naked 7mbit service from Qwest and I pay 45 or so... but that's here and not there. Probably different pricing between markets. Anyway, service quality varies greatly with location (and when I say varies by location I mean block to block) when it comes to DSL, so at least see what the...

naw dawg don't be like that.

I just like this because I can relate to it.

nah. well... even if it were to happen, it hasn't happened in any of the major cities with smoking bans yet, so you know Des Moines is at -least- 10 years out from adopting any potential fast food ban.
