wanted to make sure you didn't miss this.
Ha! Awesome!
and Jon, did you get the email about the Simpsons toys?
Oh, damn, sorry that I never responded. Things got busy around Xmas and the email got buried and I forgot. I'ma gonna pass, but thanks for the offer!
This is probably a non-starter, but does anyone happen to have Dave Mason's "Spend Your Life With Me"? Yeah, we're talking a ... thirty-year-old song here, but it was my wedding song, and it's my twentieth anniversary. And I only have it on vinyl somewhere in a box (which was, indeed, how it was played at our reception), and I'm feeling nostalgic.
I don't have the song but congratulations Amy!
Any Muse fans around? First time I heard them was seeing the video of their cover of "Feeling Good" on MTV Europe. I recently stumbled onto "Starlight" (looking for the Supermen Lovers song of the same name) and I've been listening to it repeatedly.
Now I'm thinking I might need to track down more of their stuff.
I've got Black Holes and Revelations smonster and I really like it. I first heard them on Live From Abbey Road and really liked their sound.

It's like ‘Edward Cullen was so beautiful I creamed myself.’ The more I read the script, the more I hated this guy, so that’s how I played him, as a manic-depressive who hates himself. Plus, he’s a 108 year-old virgin, so he’s obviously got some issues.
Is that an actual quote? If so, it's beyond awesome.

Yeah, I've seen that in an interview somewhere.
La la la music is nice la la la...

Just woke up. Why? Because Amanda Palmer rang in the new year with a show that started at 2:00 am and wrapped up around 6:00 am.
She's epic. And Bowery Ballroom is a tiny venue with a stage door right next to the stage so she wound up standing next to us watching the opening act. Emilyn Brodsky's band includes Brian Viglione. That man is porn.
I'm also tired from three days in Asbury Park after Christmas seeing The Bouncing Souls and a dozen other bands. Every night was three different opening bands (some newer, some punk royalty) and the Souls performing a different set. And there were afterparties. We had many lovely adventures.
Oh! And I rang in the new year with Andy Hurley and a bunch of the FC crew. With one of whom there were cheek kisses. I realize it's a technicality, but I'm pretty sure that having kissed a Fuck City boy I am now officially a scene kid.
Lady Gaga-related question: what, exactly, in "I'll get him hot, show him what I've got" constitutes a poker face? I've been watching her video clip, and just how dense is this guy if he hasn't discerned her intentions?
