Re: [MMouse]: alkaline trio sounds just like US Maple

Re: [MMouse]: PINBALL
ho-hum. here the gat come as for rating pinball (is anyone else a pinball fan around here? if you arent , to paraphrase hamlet "GET THEE TO AN ARCADE". because i used to think pinball sucked and then i played a few games and it rocks your world) the best known pinball game ever ever ever made is GUNS AND ROSES PINBALL. you cant beat this fuckin game. put a quarter in and it goes "YOU IN THE JUNGLE BABY". its got so many GNR references in it. it makes me clean up a mess in my pants everytime. so yeah. GNR gets my all time rockin pinball game. whodunnit gets like a 7.5 out of ten. its way too easy. i mean hell i put my 50 cents in and got 8 free games. what the hell kinda shit is that. i dont really live around too many pinball games so its tough for me to find the good ones. and they more often than not end up sucking. another great pinball game used to be at TT the bears in cambridge mass (behind the middle east). it was this boxing game that had a boxer in the middle who would turn around everytime you got a chance to bout, and you would whack him with the ball a certain nunmber of times in the allotted time frame. if you kicked his ass you went up in the ranks, much like mike tysons punch out (BANZAI! - piston honda). in the corners you could jump rope your ball and use it as a punching bag. very very innovative. pinball games i hate include "black rose" and "medival madness". medival madness is the only pinball game on campus, and its way too easy to lose all three balls immediately. its one of those ones where youve got to accumulate loop shots to get multiballs. and if you dont get the loops or you dont hit the multiball switch, you aint got shit. high speed is a good game too. as is Congo and South park. and i wont even go into the star wars episode one game. it blew my mind when i first played it. shit man. now im jonesing. russ - see my hearts reflection in your eyes

[MMouse]: PINBALL
Oh my god, I should quote The Who at the beginning of this post... RUXXMAN, I cannot handle the awe that is Whodunnit, but show me an original PinBot and I'll teach you the ways of the shiny table. I also mastered Demolition Man (which is most likely head and shoulders above the movie) during a frightfully long business trip in the middle of goddamn nowhere, and the hotel only had two pinball games, the one being located in the bar which was closed in the middle of the night when yrs truly was most likely to haunt the hallowed halls of the silver ball. Let's see... I used to be decent at the X-Files game, but the one I played had a faulty filing cabinet, which made it extremely difficult to get anywhere. The Shaq game was strangely addictive for about a week, and the World Cup game was compelling when drunk. Who wants to rate pinball games??? Re: surveys I hate to be a bossy betty, but in six months this whole cycle will repeat itself and many people will repost new genetically altered surveys which will cause another windfall of lengthy posts by friendly listers. Perhaps someone should take it upon themselves to catalog the results of this survey in the interest of those later listers who have missed Round One (Three? How many is this now, kids?). I'm sure many of the eligible bachelors of this list have already begun compiling stats and crunching numbers, using the Hot Girls page as an answer key.

Re: [MMouse]: alkaline trio sounds just like US Maple
i saw us maple 6 times this summer. at first i didn't know what to think but after the 4th show they grew on me. At the Seattle show this past summer, Al, the lead singer kept harassing this odd looking mongol in the front and jacked his hat. did anyone see this? i picked up their last album 'talker' and i really dig it. the guys from Maple are really nice. Al Johsnon works at a pawn shop. The other guitarist paints dogs for a living. Aristocrats bring him their dogs and he paints portraits of them. The bass player is a social worker.

[MMouse]: US Maple / Modest Mouse Survey
U.S. Maple is great if you like extremely calculated very intellectual rock music like Captain Beefheart, some Sonic Youth, etc. I think they're greatmy cousin thinks they're the best band in America. I've been dying to catch them live. I'm surprised they were "practically booed off stage" in Chicago, their home town where they seem generally loved Dunno, you're probably wrong, but yeah I think they're good. Loud and shit. I like that at least. 1. Who are you/where do you reside/how old are you? Tyler, from Cleveland, 18 years 2. What is your favorite mouse song? Probably "Teeth Like God's Shoeshine." "Tundra/Desert" is really great, too. Also, "Breakthrough" is a favorite. I really dig the chorus of "Convenient Parking". 3. What are five records you couldn't live without (right now)? R.E.M. _Murmur_ Wilco _Summerteeth_ Nick Drake _Pink Moon_ Spoon _Series of Sneaks_ Low _Curtain Hits the Cast_ I'm in a pop, qausi-folky mood I guess. 4. Putting records on the internet for free download: bad or good? Hey, I'm all for people putting their own stuff up for free download. I think it's immoral unless you have permission from the artist... That's not to say that I don't do it, or disapprove of doing it. 5. Ebay, bad or good? I've only bought one thing on Ebay ever...It worked out fine. I was happy. So I guess it's good. 7. Do you own the Japaneese Tour EP? Yes, I bought one from K. 8. First live show? Hmm... the Beach Boys maybe? First "real" show was a festival with Moby, Henry Rollins, Soul Coughing, Sloan, others. I still love the Beach Boys though. 9. Worst live show? Saw Wesley Willis here in Cleveland. I still think he's great, but the crowd consisted of loud obnoxious frat-boys from Case Western Reserve University. A really shitty art-punk band opened up I think called Curmudgeon or something like that. 9a. Best live show? Too many to choose from: Son Volt, Papa M w/ Six Parts Seven, Modest Mouse in Seattle, the Melvins uhhdunno. I'm really psyched about Jessica Bailiff, Thomas Brinkman, and Modest Mouse w/ Califone and Six Parts Seven though... 10. Favorite sound? Breathing is nice, I guess. 11. Least favorite sound? Applause. 13. What book should everyone read? I think that every artist should read Joyce's "Portrait of the Artist." Other than that. not sure. 14. Signing to a major? I doubt I ever would if offered the chance, but there are certainly rewards. 15. Wearing the t-shirt of the band you are going to see? Ah come on dude...don't be that guy. 16. Modest Mouse list being oft-off the topic bad/good? Annoying at least... The Spoon mailing list for instance has a lot less activity but a greater ratio of interesting posts to non-interesting posts. People tend to get wax-intellectual here. 17. Favorite beer? Heineken. 18. Favorite color? Blue. 19. What are you going to name your first born child? I'll get there later. 20. Five favorite movies? Bottle Rocket Down by Law Beetlejuice Can't Hardly Wait (it's brilliant...watch it again) I really liked The Straight Story, Ghost Dog, and Being John Malkovich this year

[MMouse]: the galaga conquest - who dunnit
my poor carpal tunnel hand has a hard time keeping up with galaga, although i love it dearly. uhm. yeah, i know a kid who rocks the casbah at galaga. you two should go head to head. and oh hell. you know what else. if anyone wants to see who can defeat one another at the pinball game "Who DUnnit", i have some sick fascination with it. i got two high scores in one night, and rooftop champion. that means whenever youmake it to the slot machine, your initials come up right before the slots spin. i should have been creative and made my initials "CUM" or "GAY" but alas, i put RUX in, unbeknownst of the awesome publicity it would bring me. so hmhmhmhmh. who dunnit? anyone? "tell me more about TONY." "IT WAS TONY WHO TAMPERED WITH VICTORIAS BRAKES!" CLUE FOUND 200,000! oh well russ

Re: [MMouse]: remember last april
theres no way one can say that us maple is for everyone or not. theyre totally an acquired taste, as is basically anything on skin graft records. i thought it was funny that someone noted them as the worst band theyd ever seen - thats basically what they strive for (to oversimplify). you have to like weird shit and a general lack of cohesiveness and melody to be into us maple. i think they rule speaking of fucked up shitanyone here like like lake of dracula or jaks or scissor girls?

[MMouse]: Russ and Pacman
Hey everyone, Just a word of warning to all of you about to challenge Russ to a Ms. Pacman competition. Russ and I are friends in real life, and last January the band we are in, The Princeton Reverbs Colonial, went on a road trip to record our new CD in Athens, GA. Along the way we stopped in Wilmington, NC to play a show. Well at this club (Bessie's) they had an old skool Ms. Pacman set up. Russ and I being the cool kids we are decided to play a round or two against each other. We each put in our quarters and Russ got the two player game set up. Russ was player onebig mistake. Russ said something like it'll be a while you can go do something else. I laughed him off, but he was not kidding. Each one of his lives literally lasted 20 minutes. My turn would come up for like 30 seconds and then I would go read a book, play pool, take a crap, do soundcheck, watch all three godfathers, and then come back just in time to see him play for a bit before he made a mistake. It was awesome :D. This pacman was hacked too or something cause you could go in the ghosthouse. BOOYEAH, YOU'RE IN MY FIGHT CLUB NOW BLINKY! yeah dawg, Darren r e d c a r p e t r i n g http://www.redcarpetring.com/

I got this copy of the Moon & Antartica from a friend who's roommate got it from Isaac awhile back. It sounds really different from standard mouse stuff. At first it kind of turned me off, but i'm warming up to it. I think this is a really early cut of the album. The track list is different than the ones that have been posted so far. Lots of vocal tracks on most of the songs, including some stuff i cringed at. Over all, it's much less "groovy", more layered and complex, more up-front vocals, and alot less bass. It's much more "epic" (bad pun totally intended) The new songs sound much different from the live versions i've heard. I'm hoping the actual realese sounds better. Songs on my version: 1) Third Planet 2)Gravity Rides Everything (ilove this song) 3)Life Like Weeds 4)? 5)Dark Center of the Universe (not the best version) 6)Perfect Disguise 7)? 8)Stars are Projectors (damn good version) 9)Paper Thin Walls 10)Lives 11)Cities Made of Ashes 12)I came as a Rat (a bad title for a bad song) 13)? 14)Different City 15)The Cold Part 16)Alone Down There (cheesy/creepy voice effects) 17)Suspention of Disbelief?(Everywhere) I could use some help with the titles i don't know... Song four-"You're the good things, yeah, thats you, yeah that's you, yeah, you're the icing on the cake on the table at my wake" Song seven-"And down at the bottom of the ocean where the dead do rise" "You need proof, I got proof..." Song 13-(back country porch sound) repeats the "Never die, never grow old" line from "i came as a rat" -isn't that a tom petty lyric?- Song 17- i'm calling it "suspention of disbelief, but thats my own title.
