Wilco, The Beatles, Sufjan Stevens, Belle & Sebastian, Beck, Pearl Jam, Nirvana, the Shins, Willie Nelson, the Beach Boys, Paul Simon etc

I could go on. These are just some from my upstairs collection.

Edit: I think Sublime has some really fun music. No shame there.

Yeah, it hits the lizard brain. As much as I love jazz, sometimes I don't want all that complexity. In the end, that's what I think really turns people off about jazz, if they start to get into it. I'm not advocating for anti-intellectualism, but too often people take things too far and end up breaking them.

Belle & Sebastian would go into mine too. Thinking about seeing them in June with Yo La Tengo. Same goes for Wilco and The Beatles.

You're also going to see Wilco with the Beatles in June? Lucky fella.

You didn't hear? The Beatles are on the Solid Sound Festival lineup this year!

NICE! Glad I've secured my tickets. Too bad I forgot to book a room. Looks like I'm crashing on bgood79's floor.
