| New reissue of Exile on Main Street Sounds great on my iPod and Sony headphones. Must be me, but I also love Iggy's Raw Power from the same era. Dank and murky has it's fans. Sorry it is not your cup of tea. | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers Dmob: I am really liking the Haven Gastropub burger in Orange. Everything is right with that one. Check it out.PS: I just had the most amazing lasagna at Santa Fe Imports on Santa Fe in Long Beach. Best red sauce pasta I have ever had, in an obscu... | |
| Ian Curtis passing: 30 years ago today What people don't usually know is what a really good band they were live. Much harder sound. The second album by Martin was brilliant. No Martin/No U2. Very influential on the next wave of bands that hit this shore, including Magazine and Wire. | |
| New reissue of Exile on Main Street I am enjoying it on my sun deck looking over the Pacific, while being deeply opiated. The scarf around my neck is a nice touch. In a word: scuzzy genius. | |

| Top 5 Hamburgers MacdaddyI have lived here all 51 years. What keeps us out of Texas is 100 degree weather matched to 110% humidity and skeeters the size of Canadian geese. In exchange, we can laugh at the beach culture foisted on the rest of the country by the Bea... | |

| Rolling Stones Fans- I Need advice New remastered CD from 2009 is quite nice. I also like It's Only Rock and Roll, remastered in 2009 as well. Exile comes out this month with 10 new songs. | |
| Doors Documentary 5-12 on PBS I loved the footage but hated the voiceover by J. Depp. Also tired of them not accurately attributing his death to a hot dose of heroin in Paris. Rolling Stone Magazine ran a pretty interesting story about that four years back which interviewed Fr... | |
| Worst Rock Band Ever !!!! Second that, Rockdaddy | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers DMobTry La Sirena Grill in downtown Laguna on Mermaid Street. The best organic sourced Mexican food in the country. | |
| Worst Rock Band Ever !!!! Limp was a real limp no talent band (com'on Nookie?), but the most annoying songs in my world are Foreigner's "Hot Blooded" and every bloated song by Styx. Made punk and hardcore become relevant in my world. Total cringe factor. | |
| Top 5 Hamburgers Macdad: also love Ikko for sushi. Right around the corner from Anjin. Also love Javiers for their mole. El Matador in Costa Mesa is a great mid-scale Mexican Restaurant and Taco Mesa is a great taco stand. I love their tacos calamari and tacos al ... |
