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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Happy birthday, Jon! (Belatedly!) Facebook so did not tell me about that.

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

My "Oh my god oh my god this band is totally awesome where have they been all my life?" album of the moment: Split Lips, Winning Hips, A Shiner by Shapes and Sizes.

Available on eMusic and iTunes.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I met with bandmates last night to tell them I'm quitting live music. They want to persist as a recording band. I'm a little dubious about how this will work, but we'll see.

Art Crawl!!!

I hope it works out!

More Irish musicians than you could shake a stick at or count on the fingers of one hand making a tribute to Ronnie Drew . . . and I have no idea who Ronnie Drew is so don't ask me.

I'm quoted in Details Magazine about the Jonas Brothers.

...purity rings?

I guess I'm just a punkass, because I was way more tickled by Trace Cyrus -- Miley Cyrus' older brother -- when I saw his band (Metro Station). Four boys who style themselves like lesbians and sing songs about having underage sex! I wanted to ruffle their hair and say, "I don't really like your music and you look ridiculous, but keep up the good work, kids!"

This is probably why I shouldn't be a parent.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I'm quoted in Details Magazine about the Jonas Brothers.

Hey, cool! A bunch of teens at my library LOVE the Jonas Brothers, but I didn't know much about them before reading that article. I like the idea of the bubblegum-as-espionage TV series, though I'm sure it's going to be dreadful. One line from the article that struck me:

Greenberg [then-president of Columbia Records] says he burned the brothers a CD of punk songs from the seventies and eighties

I'd think that admitting to burning CDs would be a big no-no for a record company exec!

Do the 13th Floor Elevators have any cool songs besides "You're Gonna Miss Me"? Their catalog is available on eMusic.
