Best thing I've heard recently was Keith Richards' sweet cover of I'm Waiting For The Man by Lou Reed.



The first thing that you learn is you always gotta wait...

idk man. the whole beauty of that song is the frantic griminess of it from the metallic sound from the track. I've never heard a cover even close to it. There's a live version out there from Lou Reed and Bowie and even that misses it totally IMO

I tend to agree here. I'm sure Keith Richards cab relate to the subject matter, but it doesn't do it for me. Now I have to go listen to that album.

No accounting for tastes, I guess.

YT was kind enough to suggest this to me, without prompting.


Hearing it for the first time, and I'm enjoying it as much as the original, or the Keef Richards remake.

everyone has to wait for their man bruh. That’s just how it is. Even in those rare instances when you’re man’s a woman

If you’re still fighting this then you haven’t waited for enough men in your life yet

Been doing the Lent thing, and I haven't really missed alcohol, but man I miss the taste of good beer. Had wings without beer and it was just a travesty, so I tried a couple of non-alcoholic craft beers. They didn't taste bad, exactly, but they didn't taste like beer. More like grapefruit juice mixed with the water you boiled brown rice in.

The only NA beer that I sort of like is Sam Adams Just The Haze. It's as close to an IPA as I've found. The rest have mostly been a dumpster fire. I don't even bother anymore. Now, I run through a case of La Croix a day.

Sadly, Hazy juicy IPAs are one of my least favorite styles. I'm sure it's easier to emulate, but I like my beer to taste like beer.

With 19 years sober I really don't miss beer at all. This newfangled weed you kids are smoking nowadays is my greatest temptation. Never tried any of the near beers. The taste was never the point for me, just the buzz.

Yeah, I'm familiar with your disdain for hazy IPAs. Fwiw, I fully believe the brewery matters. I haven't had a proper good one outside of the northeast. Many try, and all of them fail. Colorado has a ton of them (WeldWerks, New Image, New Terrain, 4-noses), and they all miss the mark by a large margin.

Whereas the northeast has Treehouse (best in show), Trilium, Alchemist, Fiddlehead, and Grimm, just to name a few, that are all top notch. The worst representation among this group is still better than the best offering of any other brewery I've tried.

I fully realize I sound like those stoners who say "you're just smoking the wrong strain," to anyone who doesn't like weed. But it's especially true with hazy IPAs.

Anyhoo, I get a hangover just thinking about drinking one of those beers these days.

Congratulations. I hope to hit my 1 year in 11 days.

one of the biggest letdowns i've had in life was finding british made IPA in a shop in China and buying up the lot thinking I struck gold, finally being able to have the original version of the beer I so very much love

it was awful disgusting swill that tasted nothing like the American version of it that I grew to love
