Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

Closed Threads

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.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Foals frontman Philippakis said members of his band were handcuffed by police after the fracas and nearly missed a UK gig the next day.

Speaking to fans at the Latitude Festival in Suffolk on Sunday, he said: "We were in Spain yesterday and I got into a fight with Johnny Rotten. I don't know why I'm telling you all this, but I was handcuffed and we nearly didn't make it."

He went on to dedicate the next song to "Johnny Rotten and his meathead friends".

The Kaiser Chiefs were not willing to comment publicly on the attack yesterday, but sources close to the band told The Independent that Wilson and his bandmates had witnessed the alleged assault and tried to stop it.

"Ricky and the others saw what was going on and stepped in to help them," the source said.

"I don't think they'll be saying anything publicly though because of the racism element which makes it a difficult situation."

Bloc Party informed police in Barcelona of the attack and have given a statement to British police, the news report said.

Lydon last night dismissed the other bands at the festival in Barcelona as "jealous fools", adding that "lies and confusion usually follow," the newspaper reported.

He also had some sharp words for Okereke.

"Grow up and learn to be a true man. When you have achieved as much as I have, come back and talk to me," Lydon said.

What a fucktard. There goes the last remaining remnants of respect I had for that man.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Juliebird, if you're looking for True New Orleans, you have to include some Irma Thomas. She's a soul singer, but if you squint hard enough she might pass for bluesy.

If you want a lesser known example of the '50s New Orleans rock 'n' roll style, Benny Spellman's "Lipstick Traces" is incomparable.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

That sounds a lot like a dumb publicity stunt. I mean, Lydon was in a band with Jah Wobble during the years of English punk's flirtation with the racist side of skinhead culture.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Speaking of St. James Infirmary, that's how I got to know it.

Edit: Oh, and thanks for the Irma Thomas reminder. It was good to listen to one of the few-songs-of-her's-I-know again.

“Not dead yet!”

I woke up this morning with an inexplicable urge to create a new mix that harkens back to high school.

It starts with "Dead Man's Party."

Followed by:

  • Under Pressure
  • Call Me
  • Love is a Battlefield
  • She's a Beauty
  • World Where You Live
  • Every Little Thing She Does is Magic
  • Voices Carry
  • Here I Am (Come and Take me)
  • True Faith
  • A View to a Kill
  • I Know There's Something Going On
  • What Have I Done to Deserve This
  • Everybody Wants to Rule the World
  • It's My Life
  • The Tide is High
  • Tombstone
  • We Belong

I have to wonder what in hell my subconscious is up to.

I have to wonder what in hell my subconscious is up to.

Whatever it's up to, it's wearing a "Members Only" jacket.

Punishingly Intricate

No, but I think I may need it for my "Stickshifts and Safetybelts" Mix.

Is that the mix you're doing for August? I have to do a road trip mix soon and will be looking for suggestions.

Tell me about it. I have to think it might be for a story idea because that's how my brain tends to work.

And you know, never actually had a Members Only. At least not a real one. My mom bought me a fake. Pink. Of course. *rolls eyes*

I will 'fess up to an unholy addiction to my Reebok Freestyle Hightops.
