Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Sue was sad way before the rest of you!
It is sad news though. I used to contribute to the Big Star zine Back of a Car back in the early 90s, and the editor, Judith Beeman, actually got to know Jody and Andy pretty well.

I was sad when Sue posted. . . but I didn't post.

I keep forgetting to mention that Trannyshack is having a special tribute this Friday. Twelve different drag queens will be doing...Siouxsie!

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Kristin Hersh gig last night (as a special guest of Giant Sand) was truly superb. My only complaint was that she wasn't on enough. Trying to get tickets for a very small gig she's doing on Monday, but I think it's a sort of draw. We shall see!
Daisy Jane, Codeine Velvet Club cancelled last weekend, so I didn't get to see them. I was very disappointed! They barely gave any notice, too, so we didn't know until after we'd arrived. Which seems like a crappy thing for a band to do. The rest of the festival was fun, though. These New Puritans and Yeasayer are great live.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
That sucks!

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

Ooh, love Kristin Hersh in concert. Will want a full report if you manage to get tickets.
