Do I want to know?
Alicia, the CDs arrived yesterday. Whee! Hopefully I'll get them in the mail to Jon by early next week.
Jayne: Well... I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.
'Objects In Space'
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.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I fixed Steph's Random Dread Alleviation Mix, more or less. Which is to say that at least one of the 94 songs doesn't work, and Real Player truncates some of the files, but it plays fine on Windows Media Player, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that if you put them on an mp3 player they'll work there, too. The Real Player problem nearly caused a Scanners incident, and since my head is the one in question I'll quit while I'm mostly ahead. The "Mache Dich Mein Herze Rein" aria from Bach's St. Matthew Passion, which is just about the most beautiful thing I've ever heard, was just followed by Neil Young's "Sedan Delivery". Random play is definitely the way to go with the Random Dread mix. Now "Mothership Connection"... very nice, and appropriate, too: "Whatever part of your body it is, I want you to lay it on your radio, let the vibes flow through. Funk not only moves, it can re-move, dig?" Music's a healer, it is. So Steph, SA & whoever else wants it, send me your info.

Might as well just bring them to the F2F.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove
Note to Steph and SA: Gillian Welch will be at Madison Theater in Covington KY with Old Crow Medicine Show. If that weren't Indy Pride Day, I'd go, and to see OCMS even more than GW.
Fans of old-timey music t looking at tina f , google 'em and take a listen at their website. "Tear It Down" has the kind of plinky banjo I adore, and a nice interlude of "Pig Ankle Rag," of which I've been unable to find a good recording.
I'll be getting my fill of plinky banjo this weekend at the old time music fest in Bean Blossom!

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Oh, yeah. I dig OCMS. They're a great band. & I love Gillian Welch. I did know about that concert, but I kind of wondered about actually getting there. It'll be pretty good.
Tina, I got cds today. Thanks!

True enough, though the potential for misplacing them or just forgetting to hand them over seems fairly high.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Since it is 3:30 on the day before my vacation starts, I am blowing off the last work thing on my to-do list and finally taking care of getting the CDs from the mix ripped into my machine and labeled. I fear I may have lost the liner notes to a paper pile in my house, but if I get these done today, I will take them to SF to hand off to meara. I will mail along liner notes when they are found.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
We just got two Matty the Mutaytor CDs.
They're the best, most-dancable electronica I've heard in ages. And fun!
