And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

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."

Oooh, totes bitchin' Mojo Jojo guitar.

Relatedly and just because: Mojo Jojo vs. Spider-Man.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Really great interview with Allan Arkush, the director of Rock 'n' Roll High School. I'm posting here & not Movies, because it's mostly about Joey Ramone. [link]

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Following up on Katherine Whalen, here's a new video from her. [link] (full disclosure: the drummer is my friend's bf)

She's got a Kickstarter project up to help get her record out, if you're interested. [link] It closes May 24th.

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

It's Pete Townshend's birthday so I wrote about him for Hilobrow.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

It would've been Joey Ramone's 60th birthday today.

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

A good day for musicians.

But not as good as September 23rd!

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

What's on everyone's rapture playlist?

So far I've got (just based on what happens to be on my iPhone at the moment):

Sin City -- Flying Burrito Brothers
Apocalyptic Modified Blues -- Corb Lund
Ain't That Good News -- Nerissa and Katryna Nields
Santa Monica -- Everclear
Hell -- SNZ (for Katherine Whalen!)

That's all I've got. I have a 5:00 deadline. Though really, should I bother?

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

What's on everyone's rapture playlist?

I haven't made one yet, but the two songs I absolutely KNOW will be on there are"

Doomsday Serenade - Jill Tracy (which I think she's offering for download until Saturday on her bandcamp page).

AstroZombies - the MCR cover. That ABSOLUTELY has to be on any rapture playlist I make.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Is 'It's the End of the World as we Know it' too cliche?
