Dungen, Woods, and Brawley Banks @ Neumos.
i really, really enjoyed woods. they were the band i went to see, and they thoroughly impressed me. i thought the "tape effects" provided an excellent psych dynamic to jeremy earl's incisive songwriting.
jeff, i would advise you to start with at rear house, which is their best album.

The Limits.
charles, i totally disagree about rap being a "young man's game." although it seems like jay-z is on an artistic decline, there's no doubt that he's still the most revered man in rap, even when approaching forty. i think mizell's line about artists staying true to themselves rings true; people can tell when you're fronting.
also: ll cool j is not spelled with a "k," but i guess i'm just being a dick, now. if it was a typo, i apologize.
