the google image search on keytar is like the funniest thing I've seen today.
I used to have one of those red ones, but I gave it to a bandmate as a birthday present a few years ago.

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.

eMusic has SST records now!!
I just downloaded a bunch of Minutemen and Descendants tracks. Milo Aukerman is my role model.

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.

So far the Descendants and fIREHOSE I have downloaded sounds better.
It's been SOO long since I heard any of it. I really only ever replaced my Minutemen tapes with CDs.
I am *forcing* myself to wait until my account reloads on Feb. 2. I have already bought and spent TWO booster packs this month. BAD TINA.

My "save for later" list is so long that I've been thinking about just upgrading already, for Christ's sake.

Hey, I haven't asked: is anyone coming down for SXSW this year? Li'l Sphere's got the week off, so I'm planning to take him to a bunch of day shows.
