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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
"Gimme Some Money" was written by Spinal Tap, right? (i.e. was not a cover?)
AmEx uses that song in a commercial.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Everybody sells out eventually...
Things have never been the same since Nike started using "Revolution" in their commercials.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
According to my ST soundtrack LP, "Gimme Some Money" is definitely a Guest/Shearer/Reiner original.

So many new messages!
I must have missed why we need Pig songs - but I have some I haven't seen mentioned yet:
Pork and Beef - The Coup
A Big Fan of the Pigpen - Guided by Voices
Pigs That Ran Straightaway Into The Water, Triumph Of - The Mountain Goats
Wang Dang Pig - The Soft Boys
IoMusicN, on Saturday I witnessed about a dozen kids from the ages of 6 - 16 perform The Wall (album, not movie, though it was clear some kids had been studying the movie for performance suggestions) in its almost entirety. I was there because I did some freelance PR for Chicago's new School of Rock. The kids performed Saturday and Sunday at Schubas, and both shows were sold out. It was at times adorable, at times pretty rockin' and at times too embarrasingly emotive for me to watch.

Whoa! Also...tina!
I've recently been cogitating what's the ultimate teen angst album.
Currently it's a tie between The Wall and Violent Femmes (s/t).

Hec! I am pimping both your and CI's books to music nerds like a crazy person. When are they going to be available again?

Fo' sure. Personally, I would go with the VFs, but only because I was much angstier when I discovered it (13ish) than when I went through my brief Pink Floyd period (16). At 16, I was less angsty because I was In Love.
It can't really be 2:30, can it? Bed for me!!

My manuscript is due in April, so I expect it'll be out in Fall of 2007. Which makes it, of course, a perfect stocking stuffer for the Tom Waits fan in your life. Corwood's still working on his, so I expect he'll be roughly on the same schedule.
