And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

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.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

The Baskervilles

Heh. Just played them this morning. Decent catchy beatlesque-pop in a poor-man's Elephany 6 sorta way.

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

"Ballrooms of Mars" is a T.Rex songtitle, btw.

Ah-ha! That's why it sounded familiar.

And the Crüxshadows did a really really cool cover of it. IJS.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Can you get yourself up to Cincy on Friday, May 14? Because Jamie Cullum is playing at this event, and I am *so* there.

Fucking yeah I can come! (That is, as soon as I check on car availability.) How much are tickets?

Looks like $15, and that's for the whole evening's worth of bands (though the rest are unfamiliar to me, except for -- egad -- REO Speedwagon).

Art Crawl!!!

I was listening to NPR this morning and they did a story on the Punk Rock Orchestra and a piece about Franz Wright that included an interview with the lead singer of Unlit and one of Unlit's songs.

Funny article in today's Boston Globe about that Blender "worst song" thing.

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

Cute piece. Though it does worry me that a music editor has never heard of Marconi.

I'm sure Craig knows but was being flippant. He also asks "what is the mamba?" and then answers his own question.

Trust my rage

Sumi - I just linked to the Punk Rock Orchestra piece over in Natter. (Sorry, beyond my abilities to link to that post.) Anyway, I had never heard of Unlit, but I liked what I heard.

I loved the operatic version of "California uber alles" and the orchestral version of "Lust for Life".

I'm sorry, Punk Rock Orchestra? I mean, I went to the website, and, OK, but are there samples?
