Don't worry, we're sure to spot Faith first. She's like this cleavagy slut-bomb walking around 'Ooh, check me out, I'm wicked-cool, I'm five-by-five.'

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.
Devo frontman: "I smoked angel dust with Michael Jackson and Andy Warhol"
“The only time in my life I smoked angel dust was by accident and it was on a double date with Andy Warhol and Michael Jackson,” laughs Mothersbaugh. “We all went to Studio 54 and people were passing drugs all over the place.
“Michael Jackson had just finished doing the movie The Wiz and still looked like Michael Jackson back then – he had an Afro and he was still black. He passed me a joint and I thought, well OK, we don’t have marijuana in Ohio so I’ll try it.”
Minutes later Mothersbaugh found himself on the dancefloor as pillars of light were swirling around “like weedcutters” knocking people over and cutting them up. He turned to his date in horror, only to hear her say: “You didn’t smoke any of that angel dust did you?”
A friend of mine smoked a joint with Johny Thunders (about half a year before Thunders died). The joint turned out to be laced with PCP.
I guess the moral is: never smoke a joint with someone famous.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Last night's "History Detectives" on PBS had a theremin segment.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Yeah, it was pretty good too!

Thanks, Tom! Sad that the video is just Ann & Kramer. The lead guitarist, Dave Rick, is a *very* old friend. We went to summer camp together as teens!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Well, my beloved Bouncing Souls are on Warped Tour and their truck died. Then their merch got stolen... madness.
The cool thing about this video, however, is their singer Greg's unflappable zen. [link]
(And, no, he's not high. If it were the drummer he'd be high.)

I probably should have been pimping my column at Dog Canyon to y'all before now. This week, I'm writing on Laurie Anderson: [link]
Prior weeks have had the Louvin Brothers, the Fall, and the Go-Betweens.

This quote from Prince has been all over the place:
The internet’s completely over. I don’t see why I should give my new music to iTunes or anyone else. They won’t pay me an advance for it and then they get angry when they can’t get it. The internet’s like MTV. At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can’t be good for you.
Crap - I have too many numbers in my head....
Oh, I read elsewhere that he's shut down his web site.
