Sky Saxon passed away this morning. The website doesn't reflect it yet, but I have it on pretty good authority: [link]
Jeez, don't get all Movie of the Week. I was just too cheap to buy you a real present.

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.

I saw Sky Saxon play! Backed by Redd Kross. He was old and terrible, but the McDonald boys looked totally blissed out to be rocking behind him.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Jacko was only 50.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Does anyone here know anything about this company? [link] It looks like they might buy many of my crappy CDs for as much as a buck a pop.

Amoeba used to pay me about a quarter of the resale value. So something they could sell for $10 would get me $2.50. I can still get that rate at Rasputin but Amoeba has lowered their buy rate, so it's closer to $1.50 or $2.
I haven't used that website but it looks like a legitimate price for places that don't have Amoeba (or Rasputin) nearby.

I am fairly confident that there is not a store in NYC that would give me money for Boyz II Men etc., so I'm going for it.

Second Spin is great. I've bought stuff from them on occasion.
