Carrying over from the last thread, 60 degrees is infinitely more pleasant than 90 degrees. One I can dress for, the other I'd rather just wait out.
A tip to my neighbors: Blow Up Fireworks Day is July 4th, not the entire week leading up to it. You don't need to practice and fill up by evenings with your noise pollution. While I realize that things have changed in America over the past week, the mechanism for lighting a firecracker remains the same this July 4th as it always has and always will. You haven't forgotten how to do it. Thank you.
I'm surprised at the hostility to fireworks. Guy Fawkes Night is one of my fondest childhood memories and I was gutted when I moved to Australia and found out it's no longer observed here. I haven't experienced a Guy Fawkes Night since I was nine.
Two things. First of all, I am pretty excited today. I recently matched with a really quite attractive girl on Tinder. I looked at her bio, and she still plays Pokemon. We started chatting, at first about Pokemon, then about music. She hadn't nothing to say about U2 being my favourite gig ever (probably a good thing, U2 fans are generally suspect) but said hers was Radiohead. At that point I suggested we take the conversation to a bar as it was going to be very hard for me to talk about Radiohead over text. So we're meeting up

And second of all, Iggy Pop's Lust for Life is one of my favourite albums. It's very underrated. It's seriously like having another late 70s Bowie album. Turn Blue is the only dud track for mine, and the two popular favourites, the title track and The Passenger, would probably both be in the bottom three. Some Weird Sin (incredible intro/post-chorus/outro riff), Tonight (lovely heartfelt tune), Fall in Love With Me (bouyant, full-of-swagger tune about spotting a girl at the bar) are the absolute tits. Sixteen is dirty as fuck, Success is one of the great "fucking yeah! I am awesome!" songs ever. Really great album, and probably about time I heard another Iggy album, at the very least The Idiot.
Did I ever tell you the story of when I almost knocked Iggy Pop off of the Paradise stage?

Goes back to the old days of 1990...please go on....
No, I actually think you've never told this one. I'm going to assume the bizarre dimensions and just generally oblong narrow shape of the room had something to do with this.
The Paradise is a shit venue with that layout, I don't care how much history it has.
