To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Zander was in really great voice all evening

He's a very chameleonic singer. Sort of underrated because he can absolutely wail like Roger Daltry, but he can sell Nielsen's snarky lyrics. He can also get a very Beatleseque Lennon or McCartney voice as necessary.

Awesome, Robin! I've been listening to plugs for that concert for weeks, and thought it sounded fun. And the guests sound wonderful. Plus, you reminded me that I really need to pick up some Gomez.

Plus, you reminded me that I really need to pick up some Gomez.

I'd start with one of their first two albums, "Bring it On" or "Liquid Skin". Their subsequent ones just aren't so good, sadly, though most do have their moments, and the most recent one ("How we Operate") was a bit of a return to form.

I have some interesting rarities and EP stuff, if your appetite is sufficiently whetted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just saw The Simpsons movie a second time. And to think I was earwormed with "Spider Pig" before....

Also, have people seen this trailer for Spider Pig? It's pretty funny. [link]

And I'm going to be incredibly anal and post a link to the correct lyrics to "Spider Pig" [link]

eta: And the "operatic" version of "Spider Pig" is available from iTunes!

The only reason I posted that is the correct version is a little funnier in that last line....

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I only know the Polkaholics.

Still impressed. All three are bands I had hung out with at some point in Chicago. The guys from Ulele went to high school with my bestest friend and two guys from New Rob Robbies worked with my ex hubby. One of those guys used to also be in The Polkaholics.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm late to the Favorite Album Title discussion, but why didn't anyone mention What Were Once Vices Are Now Just Habits? (I've probably got that screwed up in memory.)

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

McLusky's album titles were extraordinary: My Pain and Sadness Are More Sad And Painful Than Yours, McLusky Do Dallas, and The Difference Between Me And You Is That I'm Not On Fire.

Punishingly Intricate

I LOVE the McLusky album titles the bestest.

Anybody want to see pictures of my band playing in LV? Soon there will be video as well. allegedly.
