Dude clearly didn't watch the movie.

And you can call me... Nighthawk.

Superhero movies are finally getting respectable. Not that Batman is even a superhero.

That blows. So GNR has what, Axl and a bunch of nobodies?

What? When?

It's been 15 years since the last GNR album. Did they actually learn something during that time, or are they just putting off the disappointment?

It completely defeats the purpose of a live performance. You know they're never going to watch that shitty low-res footage again.

So there is no real game then? It's all just pretend?

That's the problem. People say "vote your conscience," but if the person you're voting for has no realistic chance of winning, you're basically just registering a protest.

I don't like either one of them. We need to get away from the two-party system. It's ridiculous that we're expected to pick one of two people every four years.

Would you say they're "full of shit"?

Don't ask me. You're the one who brought it up. I'm trying to talk about audio.

Look. I get it. Analog was fine back in the day because it was all they had. But to prefer it over digital when CDs have clarity and multiple channels is just asinine. Put a disc in and you can adjust the bass, treble, and pan. I mean, fuck... digital masterings even let you isolate the tracks so you can listen to specific instruments, which is crazy useful for musicians trying to learn timing.

Hell, even headphones can support 5.1 sound and give you better audio than a record player can even dream of. Opting for analog is what old people do because they refuse accept that some technological advances are actually worthwhile. Quit clinging to the past and embrace modern innovation already.

I'm guessing that's a no?

Or a discount if you buy something over $10. I'd probably spend more just because there's a discount.

Does the Java Hole get any special orders for Record Store Day? It's the 19th, FYI.

I know we're mostly used records, but figured it was worth asking.

I don't know about that last part, but I'll probably pick the Stones. They've got longevity and a more traditional classic rock sound. I prefer a heavier sound.

You can teach yourself. Get some tabs, learn your scales and practice until your fingers stop hurting.

Ultimate-guitar has tabs for pretty much everything.

Damn. Sounds good. I'll check it out.

Well, they're really only a band "your mother would know."
