After being on MOG for a while, I have noticed a few things that seem to make the masses come a posting. Call this a MOG posting for dummies if you will, but I think I know 10 ways to make your post numbers sky rocket. I will say I don’t know if they will help you get a Top Of All Time post, these are elusive, and I don’t know if anyone will ever crack into the top 10 with these hints. I would
As in, I wonder whatever happened to The Oneders?And no, “That Thing You Do,” though an actual one hit wonder from the 90’s and one of the my favorite songs from the decade, will not be on my list. Considering that it’s original music from a film and is performed by a fictional band, I’m [...]

This was the worst year ever...but I am still standing...although my liver has seen better days...anyway, what is everyone doing for New Years Eve? I need to find a cool show to go to...but I hate driving that night, it is totally amateur's night...meaning everyone thinks they can drink like champls and still drive....so i may just cut my losses for the year and stay in and play Xbox360...not v...
..When I first asked to do the poster for this show, it was because of the band Rogue Wave... I'd been a big fan of the guys from across the Bay (Oakland) for a while... Then I started listening to Nada Surf (hadn't heard them since I got their debut album)... The Weight Is A Gift is a uniformly excellent album that showcases their growth and maturity... While not their best song on the album ...

I visited one of the local indie record stores today. From all the mog-fuzz I thought that the new Modest Mouse album had been released. I went to the counter and asked for it. The guy hard looked up. Said "Modest Mouse....don't know......hey...has the new Modest Mouse album been released".......another guy behind the counter: "no". Me: "Can you tell when it'll be out".........the guy: (hesitat...
