Re: Why Trout? or The new TY thread - 7 months ago

Quotesimonfox My girlfriend pointed out that the line "babble on and on" sounds a lot like "Babylon and on" which would be really awesome if it was intentional and is probably really awesome even if it's not. yeah man, that caught my ear recently and i wondered if it was intentional, and regardless, i'm pretending it is.

Re: Favorite TMG song that has been buried in obscurity - 7 months ago

Quotesimonfox Do people like "Masher"? I'm not sure. It's one of my favorites songs ever by anyone. Definitely not rare or anything. But I mean, one of my favorite of the lesser known songs is "You're in Maya" and I know I've heard people talk about that a lot, maybe more than "Masher" so yeah... yes! Masher is one of my all time favorites!! also always love

That cover art is badass! Also excited that Owen Pallett is involved in the album. Start the countdown!

Re: New Orleans 1/21 - 1 year ago

I work at Brennan's restaurant in New Orleans... I had emailed JD when the tour was announced, offering to write a vegetarian menu for the band the night of the show. He was on board, and we made it happen! I put together a four course Creole Veggie feast! I even cooked Bananas Foster tableside. They all loved it! Way cool night for this guy.

Re: All Eternals Deck: The New Thread - 2 years ago

thank you, sir. it's good to be back. just finished up culinary school, which, between school and work, was 9 months of 60-70 hour weeks. i've got free time again, and should be fairly active again.

Re: HEY JOHN, STILL DON'T READ THIS - HWNtMG album! - 2 years ago

Just wanna say-- props to danielle and christopher for keeping this going. Sorry that everything got all haggard last year, but I'm really really glad that this happened this year. Can't wait to hear it, and will most definitely be donating when the time comes (seeing as I denied the FS rep who called me today asking for money ).

Re: All Eternals Deck: The New Thread - 2 years ago

I'm obsessed with this album. There isn't a song I dislike. Tops for me is Never Quite Free. I have a pretty personal history with "This Year"... I had one of those years back in 2008/2009 and that song got me through it. The chorus ended up being my first tattoo (which I got done at Zoop '09). Never Quite Free is my sequel to This Year. My life has definitely turned around, a

Re: What say we help each other out? - 2 years ago

I got a clear vinyl but no tape. I'm in the middle of moving to New Orleans, so I'll be scouring the record stores when I get down there. I like that tMG release these scavenger hunt items. When you finally get your coveted item after searching high and low, it's just that much better!

Re: Exclaim Piece Reveals The Mystery Of Three! - 2 years ago

The Mountain Goats is three words. Peter Peter Hughes! There are three "L"s and three "E"s in All Eternals Deck. Vinyl was released in three different colors. Album was released in three different physical formats (CD/LP/Cassette) Threes everywhere

Re: So, is Farm Sanctuary soon gonna get the do-re-mi? - 2 years ago

sorry for being a bitch earlier today y'all, i was in one of those moods all day, yaknow? anyway, ya like danielle said i'm just waiting for my checks to come then i'll be taking care of everything. 7-10 days from this past thursday, so they should be coming any day now. again i'm sorry about all the confusion throughout this whole thing, looks like most of us were all on different pages.

Re: So, is Farm Sanctuary soon gonna get the do-re-mi? - 2 years ago

hey y'all couple people brought this to my attention. here's the deal. the last plans i knew of were me holding on to the money until the zine got published, then pooling all that together and making the donation. i've got the dough, just waiting on the word. what do you all want to do?

Re: Hi, We're Not the Mountain Goats - 3 years ago

Ugh, sorry to everyone who hasn't gotten a copy and were expecting one... It was hard to keep on top of everything. If you are still itching for a copy, email me your address and whatnot and I will 100% definitely get it out to you this week. As for the donation... if, by the time I leave for culinary school in August, the Zine is still unpublished or whatever, I'll just donate the money I

tmg got me extra credit! - 3 years ago

so, in my speech class today, the prof was talking about putting an "a" in front of a word, which then negates it. he offered 5 extra credit points if anyone knew the term for this. i remembered an interview where JD explained this! raised my hand, said alpha privative (though it is technically privative alpha), and got my extra credit. thanks john.

Re: "in the cans" - 3 years ago

Quotenigel I know that "in the cans" means "recorded but not released", but what exactly is the etymology of this phrase? Is it like "cans" as in "headphones"? This is perhaps a stupid question... because "in the jars" wasn't really the same thing.
