Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

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.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Oh, and the Showbox SoDo is also where I wind up most.

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

My Chemical Romance has released a new arrangement of Sing as a fund raising effort for the people of Japan. At the website you can check out the video and find various ways to contribute to the campaign.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I think the last arena show I saw would have been Muse. Or possibly Green Day. But if you're talking giant outdoor festival, then Radiohead.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Bowie fans! His unreleased 2001 album Toy has been leaked. Details here.

In short, it's him re-recording a number of his pre-Ziggy era songs.

Link here.

My guess is that Bowie himself let it loose because he figured it wouldn't get out otherwise, and he was tired of releasing bits and pieces as "exclusive tracks" and b-sides.

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

My guess is he released it because he loves me.

I mean, us.
