Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Host ,'Why We Fight'


Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!

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.

Is that a good or a bad thing that they're promoting it by playing at an Apple store? (Well, they must be playing a more conventional gig in Chicago as well.)

There were a lot of aging hipsters in the audience, plus many Apple store employees were watching as well.

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

I think "aging hipsters" is your ambivalent answer to that, tommyrot.

It's not like the market is particularly receptive to a GREAT new Meat Puppets album.

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

I just saw the Meat Puppets by accident.

I can wish you nothing but more happy accidents, tommy.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Bad news.

I remember seeing X at the Cleveland Agora in 1982 and they were just so freakin' fantastic. She's one of the most charismatic frontwomen I've ever seen - absolutely mesmerizing.

One of my all-time favorite bands.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Has anyone ever heard a German-language or instrumental cover of "Knock Three Times"?
