Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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.

Ann, that's a ferret.

But Teppy, then we'd need a thread for the Differently Informed, where we can have deep conversations about obscure album cuts by Gary Lewis and the Playboys.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I'm thinking there needs to be a Music For The Uninformed thread, where we can all squee over the new JC Chasez album.

No no no. Music stew. That's what this thread should be. IMO

I look more rad than Lutheranism

then we'd need a thread for the Differently Informed

That's what this thread is -- B-sides and Rarities.

t screams "JC!!! I want to have your babies!!!"

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

That's what this thread is -- B-sides and Rarities.

Nuh uh! You just have to be willing to write about it. I love a good description of pop - like Angus' long posts about Justin's album when it came out.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I certainly wasn't so expert on The Miracle Legion to appreciate a side project by some of their members.

Wazzat?

When's it out for the masses, if you know?

May 4.

Did you see any of their recent shows. I caught one of them at Avalon (at least a year ago) and it ROCKED!!!

That must've been two years ago last January. I saw the very first "warm-up" show at Lilli's, one of the Irving Plaza shows and one of the Paradise shows. That was all that January. Then I saw them last October in Northampton and Providence. As much as I liked the first reunion shows, they've only gotten better!. Finally, I just saw them last month at SXSW.

They're playing at Avalon in May, but it's the weekend of the F2F.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You just have to be willing to write about it.

Or be like me, and not give a shit when all you can do is squee inarticulately. "DUDE -- fucking HANDEL, man! Did you hear that shit???"

"DUDE -- fucking HANDEL, man! Did you hear that shit???"

Or as PrestonfuckingSturges put it, "Fucking nobody handles Handel like you fucking handle Handel!"

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Angus turned me on to Justin's album, much to the mockage of my friends and relations. "Cry Me A River" was on my end-of-year mix, and I stand by it, too.
