What time is this?

[mweb08]

I see it's 630-10. Seems like a great time, but I got the show until 9.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Cerrano, have you taken uber before?  If not, there are billions of discount codes online for a free ride.  Goog it.

 

Yea I used them a lot earlier this summer in Chicago, Seattle and LA.  Can I still use the codes even if I've used it before?

THS probably won't go on until 8 at the earliest but yea, it definitely conflicts with your show.

I doubt it. I'd download the hotel tonight app and find a place in the city for the night. A weeknight will be really cheap.

Screw that, just go crash at Mack's place and trash it while drinking that 30 pack of piss beer.

Has anyone actually been to one of these? How much are the beers?

I'm finally working myself through their catalog. I'm nearly through "Heaven Is Whenever." So far, I'd say "Boys And Girls In America" is probably my favorite, but everything I've listened to is very good. I actually like the guy's voice quite a bit when he actually sings, but I dig his overall style, too. Instrumentation is fantastic. Lyrics are very good.

[You Play to Win the Game]

They are definitely unique, which is their best characteristic, IMO. Of modern music, they remind me most of DMB or a little of Adam Duritz from Counting Crows. But the story telling style obviously reminds me of Dylan or Springsteen.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Boys and Girls is also my favorite.  Most fans prefer Separation Sunday, but Boys and Girls is a tad more consistent.  They are both classic albums.

 

Don't see the DMB or Counting Crows comparisons but glad you're enjoying them.

You don't like them.  We get it.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Yea and this is a thread about them, aka, where people who like them can talk about them.

 

You're just trolling.

[You Play to Win the Game]

"South Town Girls" is catchy... Really digging that song so far.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Every song of theirs has at least one memorable line.

And if anything seems weird then just cruise

 

Also, Ricker, not sure which version you're listening to but on the expanded album there is a track called "Girls Like Status" -- it's a can't miss if you haven't heard it.

[Coker]

Count me in the group that loves Separation Sunday.

[Pedro Cerrano]

Most people love SS because it's grittier, the lyrics are better and it tells a story.

 

Boys and Girls has a slightly more advanced sound but still captures their earlier, rawer days.

The lyrics are fantastic, you're right. And I'm a sucker for good lyrics.

I enjoy all their albums, just don't listen to them anywhere near the frequency I do SS. I'll throw on Boys and Girls when I get back in the car.
