Afternoon's activities: play baseball with Emmett, make rare funk mix for Jesse.
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend.

Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
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.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Why is it that Kid Rock suddenly seems to be a country artist? I am confused. But he was just on Cuontry Music Television.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Speaking of splits, has anybody noted this week how freaking impressive it is that Prince can do a James Brown split in high heeled boots?
He's apparently also a helluva b-baller.
Speaking of VH1, I watched a couple of the bands reunited eps this afternoon. I had never heard of Romeo Void, even though I have always liked their singles quite a lot. It was really interesting (and very sad) to hear that the weight of the singer and MTV pretty much killed a cool band. I wondered why I know their songs so well and yet knew nothing of the band, and I figure that their very un-MTV image must've been why.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
make rare funk mix for Jesse.
Awooo!!! Especially exciting as I plan many upcoming trips.

I remember when "Never Say Never" first came out and what a great song it was to dance to a club.

hip deep in pie
Romeo Void's "Girl in Trouble" is one of the songs on random play in my brain...it just comes up at odd times. I didn't know the stuff about the singer's weight and MTV, but I'm not surprised.
I believed they toured with U2 when they were both fledging bands.

Romeo Void's singer (sorry, don't have the name at hand) was quite a compelling performer, too.
Now the episode of Bands Reunited with Klymaxx is on! This show is so much more entertaining than I thought it would be.
I got a meetin' in the ladies' room...

Just so you know I did write about Klymaxx in the book and included this line alluding to you, Shawn: "The chorus spawned an earworm so potent that women still mutter it as they exit for a bathroom break twenty years later."

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Dude, I've always said that Prince is a better dancer than Michael Jackson, ever since I saw him on, um, Solid Gold or somesuch. He accidentally knocked over his mic stand in mid lyric, and instantly dropped into the splits, caught it before it hit the ground, and came back up, all while still "singing."
And, BTW, the Bowie show I was supposed to go to in New Orleans? Sold out in about 20 minutes, before my buddy was able to get them. So, um, AARRGGHH!!!!!!!!
