I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Maybe in Australia, it was. Here, "Mexican Radio" was all over the video music channels.

No, Mexican Radio was a hit here too. Just not as big as Far Side of Crazy. That's the part that surprised me, that apparently it didn't even warrant a mention in Tommy's list.

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

Death Metal Lyric or William Blake Quote?

That's from after when Stan Ridgeway left. Probably the only post-Ridgeway song I like of theirs. Or the only one that stuck with me long enough to like it.

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 don't think I've ever heard that song.

ION, just downloaded the soundtrack to Kick Ass. I love the version of "This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both Of Us." Is this the original version (it's by the Sparks)? I love the Siouxie and the Banshees version.

Also, great cover of the Banana Splits theme song by The Dickies.

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

Is this the original version (it's by the Sparks)?

Yes, the Sparks version is the original. It was a hit in the UK (are we seeing a theme) but not in the U.S. Siouxsie did a whole album of covers including that.

Maybe I should have grown up in the UK. I could have been a Teddy Boy!

Way cooler than mere rockers, since the Teds affected an Edwardian look.

When I was younger, I was sorta' envious of women because they could wear such a big variety of clothes. Then I thought about maybe clutivating an Edwardian look....

In the sway of a teddy girl's hips
In the curl of a teddy boy's lips tonight

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Just imagine the stage moves you could do....

You mean like these?

And then, at the opposite extreme is this.

Of course, Rick Nielsen has been playing a FIVE neck guitar for years.
