I'm not very good at keeping up with new music, so the bulk of the records from 2015 that I listened to were by musicians whom I already enjoyed. So, in no particular order... Jason Isbell- Something More Than Free John Moreland- High on Tulsa Heat Lucero- All a Man Should Do Desapercidos- Payola Florence and the Machine- How Big, How Blue, How Beautiful Joey Kneiser- The Wildness Chvrches- Every Open Eye Beach Slang - The Things We Do to Find People Who Feel Like Us Deafheaven- New Bermuda

Yeah, some of 'em are just making me feel like a grumpy old man -
What are you Top 10 albums of all time?
ronniegwilliams replied to Sad Heart's topic in Everything Else Message Board
This is one solid ass list! -
I loved We Are Still Here; definitely a slow burn in the vein of 80s horror with a killer soundtrack to boot. I brought up Bone Tomahawk a couple of weeks ago after watching it and absolutely loving it. I didn't notice any editing issues, but maybe I wasn't paying enough attention

Favorite Band(s) you haven't seen live?
ronniegwilliams replied to dapeebs's topic in Everything Else Message Board
I was stoked as all hell to get to open for them, right after Axl Rose was released...until everyone in the band, except the drummer old drummer, turned out to be a huge jerk. I still listen to them regularly, but a 20 year old me was heartbroken back then. -
All-Time Top 10 Favorite Movies
ronniegwilliams replied to Breezus's topic in Everything Else Message Board
I loved this movie upon its initial release and rise to cult status; but, upon reviewing it, I realized how poorly shot and edited this thing was. There are some great scenes/acting/dialogue throughout that was ruined by terrible framing and editing. -
Everyone's got me feeling old here. The first 5 that were given to me as gifts... Vanilla Ice- To the Extreme Kris Kross- Totally Krossed Out Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles- Coming out of Our Shells Vanilla Ice- Extremely Live Snow- 12 Inches of Snow Like most small town children of the early 90s, I was pretty damn into Vanilla Ice and all things Turtles. After getting more into music, the first 5 cassettes I bought on my own accord were... Green Day- Dookie Bush- Sixteen Stone Nirvana- Nevermind Offspring- Smash Metallica- Metallica

VC! A Fellow VCer Needs Our Help!
ronniegwilliams replied to jhulud's topic in Everything Else Message Board
This is awful and I'm so sorry, so very sorry, Cesar. I would absolutely love to donate something or even buy something; however, I am extremely broke due to the holidays and only one income coming in at the moment. I know it won't help much, and I assure you that it isn't a plea for self promotion, but if anyone purchases my record via Bandcamp, Iwill donate all of the earnings to Cesar and his family. So if anyone was considering buying it in the past, it will go to a good cause. Again, not in the interest of self promotion, I just wish more than anything that I could help more. My heart and thoughts go out to you and your family, Cesar. -
Favorite Band(s) you haven't seen live?

Saves the Day- unfortunately, I'll never see 'my' Saves the Day. Through Being Cool, Can't Slow Down, and Stay What You Are are three of my favorite records ever and were pivotal in shaping me into the person I am today. It's that subsequent lineup that I wish that I could go back in time to see -
I just listened to those two songs and I loved both of those poorly filmed tracks. Steve McQueen is gorgeous and Fallon's already showing how much he's grown as a songwriter/lyricist. I'll always be extremely biased when it comes to Fallon and I love sad bastard acoustic songs, so this is right up my alley.

Packing/moving with vinyl advice
ronniegwilliams replied to thespungo's topic in Everything Else Message Board
white boxes like the ones you'd find from bags unlimited or amazon or whatever. when i moved to DC from Kansas, I had to use about 8 or 9 of those boxes, it sucked, they were heavy and I worried about them along the way since it was summer, but they're not awful to carry and they stack pretty well and make for good storage containers when you're all moved in -
What books are you reading?
ronniegwilliams replied to beneathbelow's topic in Everything Else Message Board
Agreed. I understand that he was responsible for creating a great deal of tropes commonly found in the pop culture that I love, and I respect the hell out of that, but I just can't get on board with ol' Shakespeare. -
Have the Bon Iver S/T pressings been fixed?

Maybe try turning it off for 15 seconds then turning it back on? -

Official Fantasy Football Advice
ronniegwilliams replied to seangj's topic in Everything Else Message Board
Every week I tell myself that Lynch is actually a good running back and refuse to drop his ass and every week I'm left disappointed. Now he's out again and I've got his damn handcuff on my team and didn't play him. I'm done with fantasy football and I'm taking up knitting -
PO: THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "The 59 Sound" LP
ronniegwilliams replied to a topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
Because Alex sounds like a bored guitar player, noodling over every damn second of the record. Seriously, dude needs to learn that less is more sometimes.
