Seriously, there's no better place than Amherst and the surrounding territory:

* The best beer bar in America (according to Beer Advocate)

* no shortage of good food of nearly every cuisine (Ethiopian is the only one I've been told is missing)

* The best bookstore in the world (according to the LA Times) (surely the greatest slogan in the world: "Books you don't need in a place you can't find")

* All in epic scenery and a not terrible (as long as you don't mind the occasional bone-chilling cold) climate

OK, time for a quick set of reactions to the tracks on this page.

Tommy Evans - Rap, hence crap.
Dreamies - Quite like it. Reminiscent of some of the early Porcupine Tree stuff.
Super Furries (1)- Eurgh - didn't get past the intro.
Super Furries (2) - Not bad.
In A House With No Mirrors - Hmmm. OK, sounds bit like Can.
Pixies - Boring.
Arcade Fire - So-so.
Gershwin - Masterpiece.
Galaxie 500 - Well I'm cool on Joy Division and hate New Order, and I don't think this adds much to that sound. Meh.
Singers Unlimited - Nicely done, but this cheesy MOR stuff does nothing for me.
Scritti Politti - Didn't like it then, don't like it now.
Agnes Obel - I like the piano and cello a LOT. But the song is dull, and the singer a bit irritating.
Eesti Laul - Oh, Rob, what is this shit?
Resonars - Yeah, good stuff, I like.
Stone Roses - It's OK.
