i tore it all to pieces

Kid tested, mother approved

If a DVD collecting the best NBA player reactions to the Slam Dunk Contest ever materializes, they need to have a bonus section showing Robert Horry and the like doing their damnedest to enjoy the National Anthem being sung by someone named Kix. But fuck a "Van Lear Rose"..."Red Dirt Road" is by far the best country-rock album of the 21st century. Get over yourself, hipsters: although every review of "Van Lear Rose" took the requisite potshots at CMT-types, Interscope didn't have Loretta Lynn recording in a coal mine.

More blogging soon, hopefully.
