I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

Buffy ,'Get It Done'


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.

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.

Ooh, ooh, Pixies at Bumbershoot. Ooh.

Ooh, Ooh! Matthew Sweet. I have much love for "Girlfriend" and "100% Fun." Such great albums, both.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

So -- Franz Ferdinand. (The musical group, not the dead archduke.) What do we think? Like? Dislike? Indifferent?

Really rather like. Quite a lot.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

11/11 - Minneapolis MN

That's a First Avenue show if I've ever heard of one. Hmmmm, and it looks like I'll be available. Hmmmmm.

Art Crawl!!!

I like Franz Ferdinand and a friend of mine went to see them on the strength of my liking them and had a really good time.

There was a good interview with Patti Smith on Morning Edition.

Scroll down and you can listen here.

The Shaggs Symposium: Saturday, April 17, in Chicago

[link]

Saturday, April 17th at 6:00pm
The Old Town School of Folk Music and The Lookingglass Theatre Company Present The Shaggs Symposium
Admission: Free

Dot, Betty and Helen Wiggin are three musically talentless sisters who, in order to fulfill their late grandmother's prophesy, were forced by their domineering father to drop out of high school and form an ill-fated pop rock band. Their debut album, Philosophy of the World, was completely ignored upon its release in 1969, but was later rediscovered by Frank Zappa, who proclaimed them "better than the Beatles." Rolling Stone magazine gave them the title "Comeback Band of the Year" in 1980, and the trio is now celebrated as a cult classic of pure naïve badness. Join us for a discussion on The Shaggs, and the new Lookingglass Theatre musical production, "Philosophy Of The World", based on their lives and music. Panelists will include Lookinglass Theatre's Joy Gregory and David Catlin, The Chicago Tribune's Rick Reger, and freelance music journalist Bill Meyer.

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.

They added two more dates to Chicago (the Pixies, that is). I have tickets for Monday, Nov 15. Whoot!

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

I haven't seen a Pixies date for SF, dammit.
