kings of leon

Man, "Because of The Times" is such a good album. It really surprised me. Seemed like quite big change from what they had done before.

Fiona Apple

Another great female vocalist!

You know it's too bad that the Bee Gee's are only remembered for being a Disco act. Their early stuff is really great Pop music. Like Odessa.

It is an awesome album, and by album I mean something you listen to from the first song to the last. Yes it is a little different a little more "polished" but I just love those guys. They rock, have great melodies, all their albums are great!

queens of the stone age

You know, I've never listened to QOTSA, but The Eagles of Death Metal rock my socks off.

Seriously, I had "Death by Sexy" on endless loop for a good part of 2006.

Yeah, I like Leslie Feist quite a bit, but you know who is sort of similar that I like a whole lot more? Regina Spektor.

"Begin To Hope" is a great album. Check this out: Oh yeah, and she's at least 400x hotter than Kelly Tighlman?

Polack,

I have great affection for most of what's on your list, but have to disagree with you on Springsteen and Fleetwood Mac. Rumours and Tusk are amazing albums - and I'm a fan of most of Bruce's discography esp. everything pre-"born to run".

As for "New Country" have you ever listened to The Jayhawks, Ryan Adams, Neko Case, Clem Snide, The Drive-By Truckers, Old 97's, Rilo Kiley, Scud Mtn. Boys, etc. etc.?

If you are talking about the crap you hear on country radio or see on CMT, then yeah I totally agree.

The Drive By Truckers new album, "Brighter Than Creation's Dark" is fantaaaaaastic (like all their albums).

My tastes are very diverse. I have Sirrius so that helps me get my fix. We also listen to XM at work all day.

I listen to everything from country to rap to clasic rock and 80's hair bands. My favorites are:

Country: Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesney, Big and Rich and Bobby Pinson

Rap: Eminem, D12, Ice Cube, Snoop and other stuff from the 80's and 90's. Most of todays stuff is terrible.

Rock: Kid Rock, Jimmy Buffett, The Who and Guns and Roses

In the CD player in my truck I have Brad Paisley: 5th Gear, Kenny Chesney: Just Who I am Poets and Pirates, Kid Rock: Rock and Roll Jesus, Jimmy Buffett: Meet Me in Margaritaville Disc 2, Jimmy Buffett: Take the Weather With You and Jack Johnson: In Between Dreams.

With all the various stuff I listen to, I should get an MP3 player. My wife and kids all have them, but I haven't gotten around to buying one yet.

    • Day 34 (14 Dec 25) - Got outside for a few moments to work on bump and runs with the 4h (again using the exaggerated weight shift reminder of the left (lead) heel). Finding that it helps keep the downswing arc extended.

    • I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
