I'm preeeeetty sure I'm our only bandomy fan who likes LeATHERMØUTH, but this Jersey Beat interview with Frank is fantastic. There is audio to download if you click right above "Deb Draisin"

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

Wait, is there really a thing through the O? That's why Frank's so cranky! Obviously a moose bit his sister!

Moosebite explains a LOT.
I've been to five of their shows now (well, one was a launch party in a record store so it was a little less raucous) and it gets real primal in there... lots of good clean rage releasing and I spend the next few days feeling like I've had a massage. [link]
My second favorite part of the interview is when Frank says that if there were no bands he'd make music drumming on a rock.
(My favorite part is that at about 7:56 and 10:45 you hear Toro play and laugh. Because I am that girl.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
For the Venn diagram where Bowie fans intersect with Avatar fans, I'll share Emmett's comment while watching the climactic battle between Azula and Zuko in Sozin's Comet: "Azula was who David Bowie was writing about when he wrote 'Queen Bitch.' He knew what he was talking about - oh yeah."

Elizabeth Gilbert's TED talk on genius is freaking amazing...and there's a wonderful Tom Waits anecdote around minute 12. [link]

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Elizabeth Gilbert's TED talk on genius is freaking amazing...and there's a wonderful Tom Waits anecdote around minute 12.
When she got to the Tom anecdote, I realized she was the reporter from GQ who interviewed him.
And she's the only reporter that ever got invited to his house to meet Kathleen Brennan, but then she couldn't.
But it was a great interview - they obviously had a strong connection, and it's a very moving piece.

Touch & Go is getting out of the distribution biz. This is a big deal for a bunch of small record labels.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
sticks head in thread...Hello?
Never been in here, I think. I need help with a list of songs for a CD I want to make for my sister's birthday. It's an odd sort of song I'm looking for.
It all started with Lee Hazelwood's collaboration with Nancy Sinatra. My sister had this CD she had made of music for the road for a road trip and after we listened to "These boots are made for walkin" I was trying to describe more of the songs they had done together and the hardest to convey was "Pheadra" at least I think that's the name.
So from that song I went (in my mind) to Mike Nesmith's "Joanne", "Rhiannon", "Venus" by Shocking Blue and now I'm trying to find more songs about women with mysterious powers. I'm kinda thinking The Eagles' "Witchy woman" and "Spooky" are kind of on the border of what I want.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Cheesey is a plus, but not necessary. I've even considered "Wildfire" but that might be more appropriate for the supernatural songs I'm also compiling a list of.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
The first one that comes to my mind is "She's Actual Size" by TMBG.
