Ooh, I'll have to keep an eye out for that. Has it been released yet?

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.
OK, I'm posting something from Wonkette in music... but this is just weird:
Happy 40th Anniversary Eve, Kent State Massacre … DEVO Was There
Liz Glover just sent us this morbid reminder: “Tomorrow is the 40th Anniversary of the Kent State Massacre. Here’s my interview with a couple of the members of Devo who witnessed it.”
Did we know DEVO’s Jerry Casale was a member of SDS who watched the whole horrible quadruple murder of Kent State anti-war protesters back in 1970? It is difficult to keep track of everything weird & awful in our Recent American History. Anyway ….
Anybody know this?
Yeah, that was one of the major events leading up to the idea for devolutionary people.
Yeah, I knew Casale had been there. Also he was in a Kent, OH band with Chrissie Hynde (Jackrabbit). Joe Walsh is also from Kent.
I am trying to identify an image that I think I am remembering from an album cover. a drawing of a figure with either a dunce hat or jester style hat on, possibly blind folded. I am think it is mostly a line drawing like pencil or pen and ink.
This is first thing I thought of given your description, msbelle.
that might be it. I hate vague visual memories stuck on the edge of my brain.
Awww, man, there's so much cool stuff happening around here I can't even begin to keep up with it. But for one, there's the Fundraising Bash at the Vulcan Complex in Oakland.
Featuring...Tornado Rider! You may be thinking, "Ehhh, Tuesday. Do I really need to see a power trio with thrash metal chops and a buff, elfin lead singer/cellist rave through a song about a bird of prey while the lead singer dangles from the ceiling by his knees playing a solo on said cello whipping the crowd into a frenzy?" Yes you do!
I think it was Train: [link]
Man, the Clientele's cover of "Paper Planes" at the AV Club is just fantastic.
