Jack Vale is awesome.

I didn't think this was real, but it is.
America, this is why the rest of the world hates us.
I just created a new category for stupid commercials. See what you've made me do, As Seen on TV people?
One of my favorites, "Kid Things," which was tucked away on This Desert Life as a hidden track after "St. Robinson and His Cadillac Dreams" appears on the limited edition official bootleg Face the Promise Land and I thought I'd share it with y'all because I'm feeling generous today. That was the biggest run-on sentence that has ever appeared on this blog. Another mission accomplished, people.
One more for today. Beautiful version of "Rain King."
This song has always gotten me for the line "I've been here before and I deserve a little more."
In this version Adam references "Goodnight Elizabeth" and in that song he references "Rain King." That's the stuff that made me a fan years ago.
Thank Gawd there is finally a solution for people who desperately need bangs, but for some reason (cowlicks, bang-alopecia, etc) can't have bangs or do not wish to have bangs all the time.
I give you Designer Bangs.

I don't know about you, but I'm going to order my sticki-on bang toupee and wear it with my Pajama Jeans.
It's been awhile since I posted a Counting Crows song and since this is a gray day in Louisiana it seemed like a good day for "Good Time." It has nothing to do with the weather or Louisiana — it actually mentions Texas, but my logic makes sense to me, so I'm going with it.
What would make more sense on a day like today would be posting "Miami" because it mentions the weather and New Orleans. But I don't know of a version that feels right for today, maybe an acoustic version where the band is pretty perfect, maybe Immy is wearing a USPS shirt and Dan and Adam smile at the end — of course I can find that.
Yeah, that's pretty perfect.
