Shout-out to the Saxon Pub for the photo, you guys rock.
I’m going to start what we’ll call the “Wilco List of Bands Everyone Likes Except Lilith, Who Has No Real Reason for Thinking They Suck and is Working On It.” Wilco is at the top. Bjork is number 2. All those emo and alt bands that get played on 101.9 (vom) come and go from it. Bob Schneider’s permanently in the teens. And he’s one of the few famous people I’ve ever met! And he’s completely loyal to his standing gig at the Saxon Pub in Austin! And apparently to his wife too! So if you like scruffy rockstar guys from Texas with a ton of talent, go bla bla bla Gravity Lounge Saturday night for $15.

Come on guys, I promised Thor this post wouldn’t bomb… please comment! You can even comment on my music posts bombing.
I think all the Wilco and Bjork fans are boycotting this post
I’m with you on Bjork and others, but Wilco?!? We love your posts L, even the music ones… their amateurishness is endearing. Just tell Thor you’re even for…. hmmm lets see…how ’bout ‘I totally saw a cop blah blah…’ you’ve got that beat already.
by the way, we’ve got different definitions of famous. Unless he’s the guy who played Bo in the Dukes of Hazzard that is.
Dude, that cop was totally for real. If someone proves it with a picture, I will be happy.
I’m curious about the other bands on your list, Lilith…
p.s. request recently overheard at the Throckmorton home: “please pass the Ray Charles”
now I crack up at that, but I’m a sick bastard. How about you?
I believe you saw a cop wearing that hat. What I don’t understand is the sense of wonder it inspires in you.
Lys: My list has a secret blog where you have to pay to read it.
I never claimed musical knowledge superiority. This is why Cripsy is so critical to everyone’s happiness.
hipster-doofus: I have no concept of fame. None.
All: Did I ever tell you that I didn’t really make out with Nitro?
Aha! Made up the Nitro story, did you? Geez, next you’re going to tell us that your name really isn’t Lilith. If you were going to fabricate a make-out story with a great kisser, would it have killed you to throw ol’ doofus a bone?
I don’t know any famous people. If Bob Schneider was my best friend I still wouldn’t (unless he was the janitor on ‘One Day at a Time’).
wilco and bjork both have such huge catalogs (not even counting uncle tupelo and the sugarcubes). because i don’t think anyone likes medulla…
I saw Jen Ruhbright (part of Jive Katze) tonight at the Gravity. Wow, what a sultry voice. Enough to make even the toughest guy melt, but she kept throwing these glances over at the guy playing with her. Looked like she had eyes only for him.
I remember her from Clare Quilty, where she dated the drummer, a guy in law school. I think they had a chick bass-player too. Feels like a long time ago, glad she’s back out there.
I have seen Bob Schneider a hundred times and every show is entertaining as hell. And easy on the eyes.
