Likewise on BJM. I trust you've seen "Dig!" If not, go do so immediately. |

Steve.
I have seen "Dig"...more than once. I have tipped a few back with Dr. Newcombe...on a couple of occasions. He really is a sweetheart of a guy. Which 'Lab record is your go-to? |

Two Ann Rynd choices and some F. Scott Fitzgerald? A well read group here!
I actually just ordered Altas Shrugged from half.com because I had never read an Rynd before. Looking forward to it. I went to Borders the other day to get it and they wanted $28 for the paperback... yikes. So half.com for $5 delivered was a better option. Last book I finished was "What the dog saw" by Malcolm Gladwell and my iPod is likely playing one of my recent running mixes that I'm making for a 10k next week. If anyone has any good "running" songs I'd like to hear it! |

Hmmm, my favorite Stereolab album varies a bit, but Emperor Tomato Ketchup probably wears the crown most often. Transient Random-Noise Bursts with Announcements is another fave, thanks in large part to the epic "Jenny Ondioline." |

I think Jeff Ament (the bassist) and maybe another guy from Pearl Jam were originally in Mother Love Bone.

The totally did, and I believe Chris Cornell from Soundgarden sang on a couple songs as well.
