Thanks for the comment!

The screening was packed; by the time my wife and I got there, we were lucky to find a spot just big enough for us to sit very close together (luckily we're married, so it wasn't awkward) on the floor by the right stage corner. I couldn't say for sure with my view from the floor, but it was probably standing-room only from that point on.

The film will be available for physical or digital purchase soon. In the meantime, the book is available.

Excellent writing. Almost good enough to convince me to come see The Hold Steady.

I miss singalongs at the Plaza.

yeah that's a hell of a rebuttal. He did kind of destroy "Hurricane J" for me. Thanks, internet.

This is the rebuttal I would've written to this:
if I weren't so damn lazy.

But, yeah, I agree completely. Can't wait for 9/25.

Just listening to them for the first time, thanks for the heads up. For some reason they remind me of the Refreshments, maybe the marching bass beat on a lot of the songs?

The title of this entry looks like it says "Bee Ham and Eff 'Em". Eff who, exactly? Whitney really wasn't kidding when she said she was taking the site to new haterish levels. EFF EM INDEED BEE HAM!!!

Laid In Stone was by far the best aspiring metal band I've heard in a looong time - laidinstone.com

I remember seeing Jimmy Eat World at Slacker 66 about the time that "Clarity" was released....also, a lot of good shows in Roebuck. Thanks for keeping the memories alive.

I hate that I missed that show. Hopefully they'll be playing more soon.

Easily the best show I've been to in a long, long time. I <3 Tesla Coils!

urbanfabric — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 16:02:44 -0000

It was a great ride and lots of fun brining upfront electronic music to the city of Birmingham. Even though I am not on the air, you can find me on the internet. I'm on Twitter under URBANFABRICFM and I am also a REAL DJ too Adam. Hit my blog for updated remixes and dj sets from me as well as dj's and producers from all over the world! Thanks again to everyone that tuned in on Saturday nights and sent in 100's of texts and emails of support for both Urban Fabric and live 100.5FM. Ken_UF

Thanks Reg for terminating another good radio station. Your music selections which included obscure acoustic one man bands playing folk music and lullibies is a death knell for yet another station. The Coffee House was tolerable since no one listens on Sunday morning anyway. Got to tune in to Hunstville for decent new/alternative music without the hip-hop but was doing that anyway to avoid the College format presented on 100.5. Good Luck Chris Adler.

I have six preset buttons on my dashboard. I only use three of them "full time." The fourth programmed station only works approx. 15 miles from my home, the other two are useless.

It makes me sad that I get more variety from a classics station than the station that's suppose to play "best of the new music." Most of the time I just tune into WBHM, turn it down and listen to my iPod. At least this way WBHM gets ratings. I blame crappy radio on texting and driving.

Woke up yesterday to hateful comments on my 100.5. This morning more hate. Just what Alabama needs is more hate radio. The could have at least given us something decent and wholesome to listen to.

Great post. I too was heart broken over the loss of 107.7 - hell, I went on one my first business trips to Philly and came back to find the X dead as a doornail.

Local FM radio is only good for one thing for me and that's local news/announcements. Really though, I don't listen to FM radio anymore at all. It's all iPod, Last.fm, Pandora, & XM for me nowadays.

But it sucks that those that aren't privy to those amenities don't have ANY option now...

Very true. Unfortunately, since the XM/Sirius merger, satellite radio is every bit as dead. Tiny playlists, obnoxious DJ's, and now so many promos that it's not much better than terrestrial radio's endless commercial breaks. The only option left for discovering new music is Internet radio. Fortunately, that's pretty easy if you have a smartphone and a car stereo with an input jack.

Re: Daily Dose: T-Minus Band

Confused — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 21:51:20 -0000

I'm trying to figure out what this comment actually means, anonymous "really? person. Are you talking about the Secret Dangers? The T-Minus band? There is a band called Eat a Bag of Dicks, do you like them?
