Jeez, if I would have known, I would have waited to make it a good one.

Way to go, mattyboy.

I acquired through completely legal means my 10000th mp3 last night. It was "La Condor Pasa," by Los Incas. My 5000th was "I'm Allergic To Flowers" by the Jefferson Handkercheif. My first was "I Don't want No Cybersex," by Mojo Nixon.

Is this a callout?

Congrats Matt!

Sounds like Matt's in a very exclusive club (pun intended).

The bad news is, now we have to test him for steroids.

Weighing in at a very trim 4.71, too. How does he do it?

Congrats, though, Matt.

Good post (#1000.)

It's a Canada-related post too. Evidence of a Canadian conspiracy or mere coincidence?

I leave it to you.

Quality *and* quantity.

And he even lets the rest of us hang out here. Wow. Congrats, Matt.

Taz, that orange swan's down jacket looks quite spiffy on you [feels a draft, shivers].

Congrats Matt.

taz, nice orange jacket you have there... but I think it's, uh.. moving.

I like his early work better. Around 352, he fired the drummer and started on heroine, so the quality really declines around there, although his solo stuff isn't really as bad as people say.

Yeah, it started out so well, with that timeless classic "cats in scanners", and then he sold out.
posted by orange swan at 10:46 AM on March 31, 2005

Well, it's not really his fault; it was the chaos of the rock and roll lifestyle that finally caused him to clean up and lose the cool of his youth. Trying to create killer licks with groupies causing scandals and producers demanding more hits has finally proven to be too much for our "Angus Young of the internet," as I like to call him.

This guy posts way too much. Can you ban him, please, Matt?
