I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal: My Morning Jacket at the Pantages, 6/22/11

I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal. Telling people what to do since 1992. Wednesday, June 29, 2011. My Morning Jacket at the Pantages, 6/22/11. Ok, maybe I won't go on too much, except to say that their show at the Pantages last week, the eighth time I've seen them, easily landed in the upper half of my personal list. Playing with a focus that's mirrored on their great new record Circuital. Before you get all defensive about this, hear me out. If you were to only listen to the records you wo...

I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal: Best Music of 2009: Perspective in Retrospect
http://badcitybattle.blogspot.com/2012/01/best-music-of-2009-perspective-in.html
I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal. Telling people what to do since 1992. Thursday, January 19, 2012. Best Music of 2009: Perspective in Retrospect. Just when you thought you'd had enough of my endless lists.surprise! I know 2009 has been over for, like, a whole week now(*), but why the hell would you do a best of the year while the year in question was still going on, anyway? Because of my consent. First, an honorable mention/explanation of their absence for Animal Collective's. 12 Modest Mouse,.

I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal: Vertigo Your Own Way; or How I Learned to Stop Spinning and Love the Blog
http://badcitybattle.blogspot.com/2010/03/vertigo-your-own-way-or-how-i-learned.html
I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal. Telling people what to do since 1992. Monday, March 15, 2010. Vertigo Your Own Way; or How I Learned to Stop Spinning and Love the Blog. Sinus and ear problems that have crept into my inner ear. And disrupted all my crystals. It's still not all the way healed, and in fact the show I went to on Friday night aggravated it quite a bit, but reading and writing on the computer no longer make my head swim. Thus, this post you see before you! Tom's Top 9 of the '90s.

I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal: Summer Concert Catch-Up
http://badcitybattle.blogspot.com/2011/08/summer-concert-catch-up.html
I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal. Telling people what to do since 1992. Saturday, August 20, 2011. As it seems I tend to do, I've fallen behind on my blogging again. As always, my response to any complaints (of which I have heard none, naturally): somebody please, please, please. Give me a writing job! Anyway, I've been to some awesome shows, and I shall now talk about them. Titus Andronicus and Okkervil River at the Wiltern, 6/23/11. Record to live up to that. Did they, you ask? White Shadow ...

I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal: The Kings of Leon Problem
http://badcitybattle.blogspot.com/2010/12/kings-of-leon-problem.html
I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal. Telling people what to do since 1992. Thursday, December 30, 2010. The Kings of Leon Problem. Kings of Leon, why won't you just let me go? You would think that the shitty albums alone would be sufficient to convince me to turn on Kings of Leon the way I did Weezer. The difference, I think, is that these guys were teetering dangerously close to being crap even as they put out a record I placed in my top twenty-one. Of the previous decade. Because of the Times.

I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal: Coachella 2011: Yeah, great, but where the hell is Kyuss??
http://badcitybattle.blogspot.com/2011/01/coachella-2011-yeah-great-but-where.html
I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal. Telling people what to do since 1992. Thursday, January 20, 2011. Coachella 2011: Yeah, great, but where the hell is Kyuss? Very good things, in this humble blogger's opinion. These days (and Step 3 now becomes hugely relevant), but how is that any worse than 2008, when Jack Johnson was the Friday Coachella Stage closer? To that point, Friday is loaded with great bands; you just have to read the small print: Titus Andronicus, The Black Keys, Sleigh Bells, Arie...

I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal: Weezer play Pinkerton at the Gibson Amphitheatre, 11/27/10
http://badcitybattle.blogspot.com/2010/12/weezer-play-pinkerton-at-gibson.html
I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal. Telling people what to do since 1992. Wednesday, December 29, 2010. At the Gibson Amphitheatre, 11/27/10. Never had I heard a more blatant attempt to recapture former glory; it was all of the usual Weezer hooks and guitar lines with none of the sincerity or emotion or quality. Songs like "We Are All On Drugs," "Perfect Situation" and the odious "Beverly Hills" made me actively angry, and worst of all, they gained no vitality on the stage. Then, suddenly, it al...

Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler. My thoughts on life and other less important things. Wednesday, July 22, 2009. Low-density lipoprotein levels were higher then they were supposed to be on my blood tests. Didnt fast the 12-14 hours I was supposed to because I did not have advanced warning.

I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal: Smith Westerns at Detroit Bar, 2/12/11
http://badcitybattle.blogspot.com/2011/02/smith-westerns-at-detroit-bar-21211.html
I Think It Has Something To Do With Oatmeal. Telling people what to do since 1992. Tuesday, February 15, 2011. Smith Westerns at Detroit Bar, 2/12/11. Is on the early list for top music of the year. The set was a bit briefer than I would have liked, but when most of your songs don't make it past three minutes you can cram a lot into a forty-five minute show. Most of.
