Record Store Day is just around the corner (4/18/09) and I can't help but wonder if it is really meant to help/celebrate independent record stores or turn a quick buck for the record labels. Sure there's a lot of press, but it all...

Seriously. I know Clear Channel owns most of the band width, but do they have to play the same bands/songs over and over again? And what happened to the '50s? The '60s, '70s, and '80s are great, but shouldn't an oldies station...

ReVeRb1080 Internet radio is the best! My favorite is this one called Radio Paradise. It never disappoints. I'm still on the fence when it comes to satellite radio. I had XM for a while and some of the shows and stations were pretty good. Bob Dylan's radio hour is pretty...

I'm a big fan of the post apocalyptic movie genre, but I seem to have run out of the good ones. The Mad Max trilogy, Escape From NY/LA, and the Planet Of The Apes saga are all among my favorite movies, but where do I go from here?...

ReVeRb1080 Barb Wire! That was a terrible movie! I still watched it though and I'm sure I'll watch most of your list as well. Thanks!

ReVeRb1080 What do you think of Taylor Hanson singing for Tinted Windows?

ReVeRb1080 Pleasing the people is one thing, but shouldn't variety be considered as well?

I seem to remember a time when whoever made the best points or even just spoke the loudest won even the most trivial of trivia. Now all you have to do is Wiki or Google and the information in question is laid out for you. Is this...

ReVeRb1080 Well put. "Debate" would have been a much better word choice."

ReVeRb1080 I actually like the old "War Of The Worlds" better. Funny story, my friend James and I saw WoW with Tom on openning week and at the end he flipped out and said it was all wrong. I told him that's how the original radio play ended and he responded, "Original?"

ReVeRb1080 You're probably right. I'm just tried of people telling me to Google it. Who did I go to before for my trivial information?

Has anyone heard any 5 Star albums lately? The last one I can think of is Radiohead's Ok Computer and that came out in 1997.

ReVeRb1080 Everyone keeps telling me about The Cardigans, but I'm ashamed to say that all I know is the "radio hits." You're the first one to suggest Super Extra Gravity to me. Most people stop at Gran Turismo. I've never heard of Kent so that's a definite must for my...
