lmaoooooo j sick comment so tru. this girl samantha thought she was the shit cuz she found the “coolest most original band ive evr heard!”.i just pissed and gave her five bucks”hun gardenstate..run quick!”

Donnie Darko obsessed ‘teen minds’ aren’t the only ones who are going to have a hard time sleeping until Jan 13th. I haven’t seen my own ‘teen years’ in (a few) decades and have never obsessed over any celebrity in my life… But Jake Gyllenhaal is one of the hottest, talented, gorgeous (yet adorable) actors and celebrities in the world and I’m going to be glued (figuratively) to my TV set to watch SNL on Jan 13th. (That is if I can stay awake — after all these sleepless nights ‘tween now and then….)

Orion- I live for the un-enlightened drivel from the likes of you! You must be a Fred Durst fan too.

Another positive post by GrammarPolice - go back in the hole you came from loser!

Indie music now is just reheated mush left off of 80’s hit recordings.

what a boring saturday night live…….why the hell is indie rock so damn folky………wheres the loud distorted guitars of the pixies that used to be the staple of indie music?

Shins+Jake= Overrated crapfest.

JAKE Gyllenhal?! Man, you got me all excited with the headline, thinking his talented sister Maggie was gonna be hosting. Don’t do that.

Oddjob loves Fred Durst

Folks,
Isn’t the lambasting of Elizabeth Goodman getting a bit excessive? If her writing style is immature and indulgent,the haters should simply avoid it.
As far as Fricke being “brilliant,” that’s a little questionable. H.L Mencken and George Orwell are “brilliant,” not people who just creatively muse about rock music. Fricke’s good but he’s not ready for the pantheon.

major record labels are pissed off for good reason…i’m gonna miss tower records…

The Shins make very good pop records, but they are the most uninspiring live band I have ever seen…and I’ve seen Chuck Berry in his ’70’s and The Grateful Dead over 50 times!

A wanker??? Who said that, is that you, Noel Gallagher?

I’m not going to begrudge The Shins fifteen minutes of fame. Lighten up people! They’re just making music for dinner parties.

I think SNL has a history of choosing a few odd choices for musical guests, anyway.

And with Jakey-boy as the host? I’ll definitely be checking him the show out.

I enjoy Shins music, but Shins fans got this crazy idea in their heads that their better than everyone else because they’ve heard of a band no one else has. Prime example is Zach Braff. Sorry guys, we saw Garden State too.

Oddjob is a wanker and wrong on both accounts.

How can Rolling Stone employ such brilliant writers as David Fricke as well as people who use the word “crush” in every single posting? It baffles me. I will forever read Rolling Stone magazine but this blog is rapidly turning into People.com.

Like most posters on this blog, I am about to get very negative:

Lots of people love the Shins, but millions more don’t care whether they live or die. Their music serves no function in life other than subtley pleasant background noise.

And “Donnie Darko” is about the worst movie I have ever seen. Millions of people love that film too, but they are mistaken. Bad acting, a retarded story, and an incredible misrepresentation of Einstein’s theories combine to make one of the biggest wastes of time you will ever encounter. There is no way to like that film- even the slightest bit- if you have spent any time actually thinking about it.
