It's true, clearly. No one real is that pretty.
I would KILL for those cheekbones.

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.

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
At the LeATHERMOUTH record drop show the other night Hambone's bass went out and Frank had to stall while they switched it. So he said, "Does anyone have any questions?"
It took conscious effort to not scream "HOW R U REEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLL???? OMG OMG OMG, DID WE MAKE U UP WITH R MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINDS?????????!?!?!?!?!??"

John Martyn has died:
Not that surprising really, considering his recent health issues, but still.

Well, there goes my motivation to concentrate on things like work.
We made him up with our minds. That's all there is to it.
More and more, I am coming to believe this theory. Which means our minds are pretty goddamn awesome, I tell you.

Truly remarkable as I saw Frank night before last and he appears entirely corporeal. (He and Hambone brought coffee out to the line. And two kinds of milk. So, corporeal and incredibly respectful of peoples' coffee needs.)
So the video drops to iTunes tomorrow, yes?
I do believe it does. There may be flail.

John Martyn has died:
I'll play some Solid Air tonight.
Aw, sad. Billy Powell died, too.
And maybe "Free Bird."

I'll play some Solid Air tonight.
I did that. It's still an amazing album. And it must be said that having Danny Thompson around tends to help with that.
There's a nice obituary here:

NYT article on the power that Apple's iTunes store has over the music industry: Despite iTunes Accord, Music Labels Still Fret
Disagreements over the timing of the changes also resulted in a particularly tense conversation on Christmas Eve between Steven P. Jobs, the chairman and chief executive of Apple, and Rolf Schmidt-Holtz, the chairman of Sony Music.
A spokesman for Apple declined to comment, as did a representative for Sony Music. But chatter about Mr. Jobs’s combative tone on the call ricocheted around the music industry, and it was regarded as another display of his tough bargaining tactics, made possible by Apple’s position as the dominant seller of music.

“Whether the industry likes it or not, the iTunes chart showing the most popular songs in America is a major influencer of how kids today discover and communicate with their friends what kind of music they like,” said Charlie Walk, the former president of Epic Records, a unit of Sony Music. “It’s a very powerful thing right now in American pop culture and immediately validates a hit song.”
