End Bits: 2009-W38

* Rep. Joe Wilson overstepped the bounds of decorum, but Congressional Democrats should've let him hang himself.

* I still haven't listened to King of Jeans.

* Which show do I go to this fall? Pissed Jeans, Sonic Youth, The Jesus Lizard, or The Pixies. Really, it's down to the Jeans or the Lizard.

* Pumpkin Ale time! I've had Post Road, and am now into Fisherman's Pumpkin Stout by Cape Ann Brewing. The stout is not as good as I remember it. Post Road (Brooklyn Brewery) might be the standard. Smuttynose is next. The _______ Beer Works does a nice version too, I recall.

* So far, two children are a cinch. I recommend it.

"Cinch?"

I know you saw the Jeans already -- what about the Lizard? I can't remember.

Fall '92. Some dude from the radio station took me with him to _______ in Detroit. I don't think I had listened to one song yet.

I saw Chris Herdt at the show, he lived in my dorm. He's going to see TJL in Atlanta.

While trying to lookup the venue, feast your eyes (fellow fans of mid-west mid-nineties punk): http://www.listology.com/heyrocker/list/every-concert-ive-attended

I've been to at least one show with this guy.

I like Mercy Rule better now than when you introduced me to 'em in 199_.

Where are the Jeans playing?

If you go to J Lizard, I will be sure to buy you a fermented beverage.

Actually, I'm completely confused.

No Pissed Jeans here, move along.

Thisis usually where I go to stalk the Jeans's live performances, but I dont (yet) see Boston.

Still mad at myself for snoozing on that last opportunity.
