o The PhantasyTour message boards, where the Phish parking lot lives on, are many things.

(Random sampling: "Brothers Past = boning an emo chick just to see what it's like. Turns out, not that bad.")
o An unusually well-written baseball profile by John Koblin in the New York Observer, about Mets' starter John Maine. (Thanks, MetsBlog.)
o These lists make the rounds every few years, but here is an updated page of how much it costs to book bands at colleges via the Man. (James Brown: $100,000; Huey Lewis, $150,000. Hmm. (Go Josh!)
o Yo La Tengo's Ira Kaplan listed his faves for both Pitchfork and eMusic recently.
o A great piece from the New York Review of Books reviewing a bunch of books about Google, the Long Tail, and such. (Word, Joey.)
