Ooh. Somebody else pitched Tom Waits too.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Thanks for that TMBG link!
Hey, I have a mystery song I can't ID -- anyone want to take a listen at it and tell me what it is? I put it up at buffistarawk ....

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
" You'll be glad to know that only one of the proposals contains the word 'fisting'."
Anybody else suspect that Hec's proposal is that one?
What? He pitched Tom Waits! Frankly, "fisting" would be pretty tame in such a pitch.

You know, Tep could be right.

Wasn't me. If anyone wants to see my pitch, I'll send it. It was pretty fun. Well, as much fun as you can have without fisting references.

Somebody needs to claim "as much fun as you can have without fisting references" as their tagline!

I would LOVE to read your pitch, Hec.
Lots of let-your-pitch-get-picked-ma for both you and Corwood.
I may have the next two hours of my day free. MUST GET MIX DONE.
So, fun was had last night. I saw The Sadies (Neko Case used to be their backup singer). I wasn't familiar with them at all, but I really enjoyed the show. For those not familiar - they are have a base of Dick Dale-esque rockabilly, with a dash of old country (they covered "Workin' Man Blues" by Merle Haggard), along with a tad o' southern rock (they also did "Everybody Knows this is Nowhere" by Neil Young and "Lazy Days" by the Byrds) mixed with some blues and straight guitar rock. They're from Toronto and were excellent, hard-working and clearly Chicago-loving musicians.

Check your inbox, missy.
I'm going to try to post some things at Buffistarawk this weekend. Some mashups I'd promised, the Long Ryders, and maybe the anti-xmas mix for the first week in December.

I'll read it, if you don't mind stupid questions or something. Which I thought you might, possibly. Hence the silence. Just because, when it comes to your kind of music discourse, I'm a bit Special. Short bus to the blues bar, or something.
