Previous Day :: Next Day

colavitos ghost: this thread is out of control!!! please continue conversation on ILM. (just kidding guys, this is fun).

in response to There Is No Surf in Cleveland

little ukraine: CG, couldn't agree more. morrissey is a complicated lyricist and it is dangerous to start throwing around interpretations, especially when the interpreter has as an intention showing how the song fits into a rather ridiculous list (though i admit i am a sucker for lists like that). procyon,...

procyon: The shape of the lights in the second-last one is so ghostly. This is a terrific set.

in response to Aurora Borealis

procyon: I love the third one. What is that building with the round appendage?

in response to Downtown Houston

procyon: to clarify, the "--clearly there was absolutely nothing sarcastic about that song" (a sarcastic statement itself) was my addition; the blurb was just saying that the song exemplified self-pitying, depressing, whiny old Morrissey. I'd always heard that he'd written the song as sort of a sarcastic jab at the critics'...

in response to There Is No Surf in Cleveland

colavitos ghost: to chime in on the morrissey issue: i'm generally bothered by critics' or---as seems to be the case here---curators' analyses of the intentions behind complicated artistic works. if you're gonna inclue a quote from the artist to back up an analytical leap, fine. however, if it's just some...

DEE: YO you all read the book there are no children here but i lived it i'm from henry horner projects i lived in 1900 on the 6th floor i was raised around goons and gorillaz but i maintained a positive attitude through my childhood days in the hornets as we...

in response to Sane Smith: Puttin' the Green in Greenpoint

little ukraine: so awesome. i really love those first three. classic humanity vs. nature.

in response to Aurora Borealis

little ukraine: i think it is total bullshit that the inaugurations are in new york and not cleveland. and that is a pretty annoying blurb about morrissey, i don't think anything about that song is a put-on. i'm sure CG will weigh in on this issue. i'm interested to...

compatriot: my man was hella drunk wilding out comedian style...

in response to No Standing

procyon: This was such a great read, and beautifully illustrated, too.

in response to Yorkville: A Neighborhood Recalled

stillsken: i guess the garbage can needs love too

in response to Scraping Love off the Wall

procyon: I remember being really annoyed about a lot of things at the rock hall. Like the blurb or caption somewhere (in a list of important songs or something compiled by "experts") saying that "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" exemplified Morrissey's depressing lyrics and put-upon attitude or something like that--clearly there...

Håkon Ohlgren: Hi there, I live in Norway (Scandinavia that is...), and I own a 1959 Chevrolet Apache Step Side. I found out today that it was built in Tarrytown. The car was exported to Antofagasta, Chile, in 1959, and then to Norway in 2005. Sad to see that the place is...

in response to Abandoned General Motors Plant

Beadle and Tatum: I always brag that Cleveland has the Rock hall, but you realize what a coup it was after comparing the musical displays there about Tennesse, Detroit, London and New York to the display of medium quality Ohio artists. Alan Freed put on the first "rock and roll" concert in...

in response to RIP Robert Jr Lockwood

Catherine Penfold-Waxman: Maybe he is going to send it where it's needed most.

in response to Scraping Love off the Wall

procyon: eughh, sorry for screwing up the page width...

in response to RIP Robert Jr Lockwood

procyon: the PD obituary is a good read: http://www.cleveland.com/news/plaindealer/index.ssf?/base/cuyahoga/1164189449118180.xml&coll=2 other cleveland musicians: the dead boys/rocket from the tombs, bone thugs-n-harmony, mushroomhead (euch), Devo and Chrissie Hynde if you count Akron... i feel like i'm missing a bunch of 60's pop singers here.

in response to RIP Robert Jr Lockwood
