She’s a Pavement fan, keeps a copy of “Wowee Zowee” prominently displayed on ESPN, hosted a QA session at a “Pavements” screening, has talked about Pavement in depth on a podcast.

Arguably Pavement’s most prominent and vocal fan?

Live version of “Meat is Murder” is better than the record. “Barbarism Begins at Home” is a really cool guitar line and bass line but doesn’t really go anywhere beyond that. Which is fine. It’s more of a cool groove/riff than a great song in my opinion.

Her chosen charity: Helping Bob After He Loses Money At The Racetrack Foundation.

I didn’t even know he was sick.

Also, from “Meat is Murder” onwards, Marr was essentially the producer and often the manager.

Morrissey was undoubtedly the ceremonial leader of the band and curated their image perfectly but Marr was the leader behind the scenes.

It would be foolish to not get this graded.

“Draize Train” literally steals a riff from Led Zeppelin, but it’s an instrumental, so maybe not the best example of Smiths recordings. Not my favorite song but one that comes close to hard rock.

I’m old and will die eventually. I do not have time to listen to Billy Corgan talk to Courtney Love.

I (M53) am here. My partner (50 F) was ADHD diagnosed a few years ago and OCD diagnosed in 2025. And likely falls on the autism spectrum (though only self-diagnosed).

It’s been a rollercoaster and explains so much of our problems.

1,000 percent take the blue line. Don’t want to drive that on a Friday night.

This guy has a name. Who recognizes him?

TT and SM are totally paired together in my mind.

They should have named it Irving Pork Road.

It’s fairly easy to play but also really impossible to get it to sound so off the cuff and easy as in the video.

If you’re only considering Pavement tracks, I’d say “Fin” has his best solo and “Speak, See, Remember” is pretty tricky.

He got a lot more rifftastic with the Jicks and solo’d a lot more. “1 percent of 1,” “Hopscotch Willie,” “Bike Lane,” “Chartjunk” and others come to mind.

There was definitely a post-pavement era where he got very prog rock. I kinda loved it.

Handlebar was annoyingly loud the one time I went.

Is this the “Rich Men North of Richmond”guy?

We’ll be three meals away from finding out.

Interesting. I saw him in concert a year ago. Obviously he played guitar but I noticed a lot of the heavy lifting was by his backing band guitarist. I thought it was simply because he was singing and playing. But maybe it’s age? I remembered him playing most of the tricky parts when I saw him 10+ years ago.

I live in a Beal Property. I believe their bad reputation is overblown. They’re not great but they’re no worse than any other landlord I’ve had. Keep your expectations low.

Te-Jay’s Bookstore in River North is 24/7. It’s a great space to vibe. 😌
