Listening to lots of Monkees via youtube.
So sad.
'The Girl in Question'
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.

Weird that it says "Folk & Roll". I wonder if Nesmith would have answered the ad if it had said "Rock" instead.
When I walked into Amoeba in Berkeley this afternoon they were playing "Daydream Believer."
The Blood Horse reports on the death of Davy Jones.
Heads up: The Aquabats Super Show premiers Saturday on The Hub network. (The site says 1:00pm, but my DVR says 11:00am).
The leader of the Aquabats, The MC Bat Commander, was a co-creator of Yo Gabba Gabba.
I'm amused and confused by this one line in Salon's Breitbart obituary:
Breitbart claimed to have been radicalized by the Clarence Thomas affair, but it was really his favorite radio station KROQ’s transition from late-1980s-style post-punk (Breitbart adored The The and Echo and the Bunnymen) to early-1990s grunge that drove Breitbart to Rush Limbaugh, and conservatism.
He doesn't really offer any evidence to support his claim, I'm not sure if it was meant to be a joke or not.
As a regular reader of Alex Pareene, I'm fairly certain it's meant as a joke.
