'The Message'


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.

Maybe's nice.

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

Troh said: The rumors are still untrue, unreal & totally outta this world 'shreds guitar, does surf's up hand signal'

Skate & Surf* (which became Bamboozle, but then that name was sold and they're Skate & Surf once again) plays 'games' with hints and clues all over social media and they've been hinting hard that FOB was reuniting for the festival. It certainly looks like a Skate & Surf hint to me. Additionally, if the "rumors" are that FOB is "reuniting" that would (in such games) be "untrue" since they've insisted all along that it was a hiatus and not a break up.

LeATHERMØUTH will be playing and I'm pretty much ecstatic to see that ridiculousness again. My Chem is expected to be announced soon. The Bouncing Souls are local and have played both S&S and Bamboozle in the past so I'm hoping they'll be on the ultimate bill as well.

*Skate & Surf is in Freehold -- about 25 miles inland -- and not Asbury Park where it was supposedly supposed to be so I've taken to calling it "Skate & Stuff". It's possible it was moved because of the Sandy though the damage at the end of town where the festival would be was blessedly minimal.

I love Ester Rada's EP. [link] Especially "Monsters".

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

So I'm going through my Rolling Stones albums to see what good stuff I'm still missing.

"19th Nervous Breakdown" was never released on a non-greatest-hits album, right? Any other great Stones songs that's true of?

Also, "Let's Spend the Night Together", right?

"Ruby Tuesday"

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

So I'm going through my Rolling Stones albums to see what good stuff I'm still missing.

Something I've been doing lately, reacquainting myself with earlier Stones albums instead of just their singles.

I really like most everything on Between the Buttons but particularly "My Obsession" and "Complicated." But also "Miss Amanda Jones" and "Back Street Girl."

So basically what happens on music blogs but for profit and the slight chance that somebody will turn up to collect the dosh.

"Memory Motel" is one of my all-time favorite Stones' songs. Was it ever a hit for them?

Nope.

(Song is rumored to be about Carly Simon, btw.)

I've always loved it, and I don't think I ever even owned Black and Blue. Or maybe I did on a cheap cassette, since I had a double tape deck.
