You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

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.

The AV Club's favorite guitar solos.

My favorite guitar solo is Bo Diddley's Pretty Thing. I don't think I've ever heard anything that sounds remotely like it, almost 60 years after it was recorded. It's like it came from an alternate universe or something.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Now I know where the Pretty Things got their name from.

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

Now I know where the Pretty Things got their name from.

Plus, Bowie's song "Oh, You Pretty Things."

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 campaign for all Buffistas to see Frank Turner has claimed another victim :) I think Scola makes it five.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Toaster?

I didn’t like it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Shun!--no, wait. Nope, that's cool. Carry on.

Trudy tried to get me into one of her other bands for years. Still hasn't taken, and, I think, isn't likely to at this point.

I think Tom might have liked it better without some of our charming neighbors.

A documentary with Jerry Granelli on the music for Charlie Brown's Xmas. [link]

I just happen to be going next weekend to see Granelli and a band perform the music live. It's one of the few bit of Xmas music I like.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

The MCR greatest hits album was announced, and Gerard showed the cover art he did for it. [link]

Most of MCR fandom's reaction is "This still hurts, not over the band break up, WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO US?" I have those reactions, plus a faint hope that there will be one or two unreleased tracks on it.
