The energy dome was too subversive for Silly Hat Day?! Oy.
Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

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.

I love that she lists the band personnel, as if they didn't all have the same wee knitted face.
Isn't it great when fandom and crafts collide?

I finally had the bright idea to sign up for concert venue notifications, and discovered that the Arctic Monkeys and Regina Spektor will be playing down the street from me next week. Not together, though. That would be weird.

Musical Buffistas, I need your input on my book cover...

Has David, or anyone else, ever seen movie "Gonks Go Beat"? It looks like a must-see: [link]

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I've never seen it, Jon, though I'm certainly aware of it. I'm pretty sure it's in the Psychotronic Film Guide and the Hollywood Rock book of rock and roll films.

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel
Corwood, I have nothing to say on Joanna Newsom but I enjoyed hearing your reaction 'cause while I'm both oblivious to and generally apathetic about the folk tradition, there's nothing quite as refreshing as hearing an informed someone's personal reaction to a thing they're informed about.
David, I liked the swordf/isht/rombo/nes from Natter but I can see the publisher having another mind. What kind of freedom have you with it? Also, I know nothing about the album and, obviously, nothing about the book's relationship with it.

They're open to suggestions but they can't break with the series design.
So it has to be that type size and font and it can't run vertically or diagonally.

I think that there'd be people interested in a book on Swordfishtrombones that wouldn't recognize that swordf/isht/rombo/nes ordered vertically on the cover is swordfishtrombones ordered vertically on a cover. Or maybe there isn't; what do I know?
