@the teeth A pro tour sounds absurd? Jesus, people watch other people play poker on national television.

On 50 Bill Callahan Songs, In Order

SOMEONE has to stick up for "Guitar Innovator". Or "Burning Kingdom". Or "Your Wedding". Or, fuck, "I Am Star Wars". The guy has enough great sad songs, let's give some credit to the fucked-up and sometimes hilarious ones too.

On Two Nights in Madison's Capitol: The Great Class War Sleepover

That scheduling conflict sucks. But on the positive side, that was not the case in New York - there was a steady stream of people from the Stand With Wisconsin City Hall rally to the Planned Parenthood rally in Foley Square. In fact, the City Hall rally ended with a call over the mic to go to the soon-to-be-starting PP one, including directions on how to get there.

On How to Handle Jeff Mangum’s All Tomorrow's Parties Set This Fall

I think audience participation should be encouraged - but only when the whole crowd has to recite the opening interview to Everything Is in unison. Which would be oddly appropriate in Ashbury Park, now that I think about it. I'll bet being a member of KISS, a punk rocker, is still a popular costume there.

On Love Lost

Hell, Will Farrell even got a major studio to bankroll a film based on this fuzzy math of sports nostalgia.

On Alternative Hoops Nation

For decades I've wondered what counterfactuals would be like if there were any counterfactuals that didn't involve Nazis. Now I know - factually!

On The NFL in Order of a Team Name's Significance to its Home City

This is not the case with Joe, Montana (or as the proud 26 residents might still call it, Ismay, Montana).

On The Milwaukee Space Program

I've finally gotten back into the NFL this year after a decade away, and this column alone makes me know I've made the right choice. And that's even after this weekend of dogshit games (barring The Splash).

On The Second Worst Supergroup Of All Time

Shouldn't we realize by now that the failure of any supergroup to come up with a half-decent band name means that a supergroup probably won't come up with half-decent music? Okay, yes, Bad Company is pretty rad, so I guess they're the exception to the rule.
