Have you tried ‘Redwalls’, ‘TV On the Radio’, yet? Saw Iggy at Lolla last Sunday, blew the doors off the place.

‘Big Lebowski’ showing at Chicago St. Pub tonight, probably going. Film at 7:00.

Admittedly, very few people have anything on Buckley, though I admit his protegé Jimmy Gnecco <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ours" rel="nofollow">knocks</a> my socks off.
