That's totally great.
In our (definitely not the trademarked School of Rock at all, really, honest) Rock&Roll Academy, it ended up being half girls, and they are by far the musically superior in the group. So it's an interesting dynamic.
Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Jilli and Plei and Amy pretty much said what I was trying to say. I haven't been avoiding the discussion, just slam busy volunteering.
Looking forward to checking out the MCR video!

Speaking of women in music, Kate Nash is trying to encourage more girls to rock out.
That's cool. Some friends of mine started a branch of the Girls Rock Camp last year: [link]

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

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, Duran Duran is airing a concert tonight on their You Tube channel (10:00 e, 7:00 p) and it seems Gee Way is singin' along. [link]
Dying? ME?!?? Goodness no.

"Gotta make my mind up," she sings, overjoyed to finally exert some control over her fate; "Which seat can I take?"
Yet here the discerning viewer notes that something is wrong. Because it is a simple matter of fact that in this car all the good seats have already been taken. For Rebecca Black (her name here would seem to evoke Rosa Parks, a mirroring that will only gain in significance) there is no actual choice, only the illusion of choice.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sadly, just an image of the cover of this (I assume) fascinating book.
