I do own a keytar!
Of course you do...
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I wasn't sure a keytar was what I thought it was. Not only is it, but the google image search on keytar is like the funniest thing I've seen today. [link]

Nice review of Kim's NMH book and a short interview with her.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I never knew the name for them, but I associate keytars with funk bands.
And you'd think a melodica would be called a farfisa simply because "farfisa" has more wind in the name.

I used to have one of those red ones, but I gave it to a bandmate as a birthday present a few years ago.

eMusic has SST records now!!
I just downloaded a bunch of Minutemen and Descendants tracks. Milo Aukerman is my role model.
(For this, I crack out an old .sig file, from an Option (of blessed memory) interview: "Don't ever confuse a Ph.D. with intelligence. I have zero street smarts. No common sense." --Milo Aukerman)

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I was very excited to see Saccharine Trust on eMusic (St. Vitus, not so much). But where's Universal Congress Of?

Could be it's still coming. It was two weeks ago I first saw fIREHOSE and at that time there were no other SST bands. Then I saw All about a week later (and downloaded "She's My Ex" within 4 seconds thereafter). So - they have been coming in waves.
I could have cried when I realized they were getting the SST catalog, though. SO MANY good albums that I don't have in digital format - only on tape.

No kidding! I just hope this stuff sounds as good now as it did years ago.
