I'm very sorry if she tipped off anyone about your cunningly concealed herd of cows.

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."
Wow, Star Magazine is the super foxiest '73 artifact I've ever seen.
Love the emphasis on girl fights and the "going steady trap." Couldn't be further from the conventional wisdom in most places.
I really liked the cartoonist they used too, Petagno.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The cartoons are pretty awesome.
With all the comic book archiving/reprinting going on, I wish that more of the underground stuff was in print.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm very happy to have about 8 issues of the original Punk.
But it would be very fun to have a collection of something like New York Rocker.
I was reading Creem for years before I even really owned records.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I am not a Korn fan, but my younger brother got me into a song they did with The Cure on MTV Unplugged. It's a Korn song and a Cure song played together: "Make Me Bad / In Between Days".
Ooh, yeah. I love Korn, and the Unplugged songs are surprisingly good. "Blind" came up on my Pandora, and I got hooked on it so much I checked out some of my other favorites.
Band Names of the Year, 2010.
Those are some crazy band names, but Apoptygma Berzerk has been around for a long time.

Oh, man, if I lived anywhere near L.A. I'd be all over this: Ann Magnuson Bows Before the Bowie

Art Crawl!!!
I've go World Cafe on the radio: they played new REM which sounds all anthemy and now they're playing some new band which sounds like something from Reckoning.
ETA: It was new Decembrists. Now they're playing some old REM "Talk about the Passion."

Because books.
If it was The Decemberists' "Down By the Water," it's got such a Springsteen feel to me at the start.

Newsflash: Rock and Roll is dead.

Again? Man, it's tough when the fate of an entire genre rests on the shoulders of Florence and the Machine.
