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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Ryan's favourite song of the moment is the Whitlams' "No Aphrodisiac". For all that it is a phenomenal song, I'm pretty sure there's a parenting fail in there somewhere.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
His autobiography, This Wheel's On Fire, is one of my favorite books written by a musician (up there with Marianne Faithful's memoir). Incredible stories about growing up in the Delta, sneaking in to see Sonny Boy Williamson sing on the King Biscuit Hour at the local radio station, and see Elvis playing in tent shows. Great stuff about how The Hawks came together, the original Arkansas lineup, and then how they slowly became a Canadian band (plus him). Right up through recording Big Pink in Woodstock.
I'm sorry to lose him, of course, but he lived about fifteen lifetimes worth of adventures.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Congrats on finishing the AtLA recap, Hayden! It's been a grat read.

That's a wonderful article, Consuela. Even if it did make me tear up something fierce.
