A Boy Named Goo is 20 years old this year.

A Boy Named Goo is 20 years old this year.

And Sonic Youth's Goo turned 25 years old two months ago.

Jeez - this thread is becoming hyper-effective.

It's a rather Kool Thing we can just Slide from one topic to another around here.

[bayonetbrant]

we can just Slide

Yeah, but Slide wasn't on A Boy Named Goo.  It was on Dizzy Up The Girl about 2-3 years later

[BanzaiCat]

Hipster. :P

[mirth]

Brant's the cool kid of the group.

[BanzaiCat]

He's probably down at that city-boy college now, wearing a tweed jacket with patches on the elbows, having an unlit pipe hanging from his mouth, and wearing thick black-rimmed glasses, with his 1970s headphones plugged into his mobile vinyl player and listening to the Death Cab for Cutie records he found at Half-Price Books this past weekend, while he waits for his class to start.

[mirth]

That doesn't sound cool at all.

[BanzaiCat]

He might be trying too hard to connect with these kids today.

I believe that photo could be used to argue in favour of reincarnation.

Who in their right mind would do such things, other than someone who died in the 70s and came back as a hipster?

listening to the Death Cab for Cutie records

DCFC sucks. 

I might be listening to Van Morrison, classic Dio, Stone Roses, Trombone Shorty, or Foo Fighters, but alt-hipster stuff like DCFC, Kings of Leon, Superchunk, etc, just annoys the shit out of me.

[BanzaiCat]

I knew you were a decent guy at heart.

[mirth]

I'm still not convinced.

[BanzaiCat]

The tweed jacket with the patches, huh?
