Better info on the Clear Channel patent.
And the patent itself.
Honestly, you meet the most appalling sort of 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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Still shouldn't have been patentable.

I don't disagree.

Richard Baron and Marshall Crenshaw - bringing on the 80s pop mafia.

You know that Marshall Crenshaw is playing in the DKT/MC5 touring band, right?

Mark Arm, Evan Dando and Marshall Crenshaw? That's a goofy lineup.

Mark Arm makes total sense. The other two -- NSM. I'm debating if I want to go to the Cambridge show (and I can get in for free -- I'm so fucking jaded).

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
I downloaded "My Idea" from Evan Dando's last album. God help me, it's really really good, in a solid singer-songwriter tune sort of way -- actually, there is something Crenshawian about its vibe, now that I think of the connection. It's very difficult to reconcile this with my fond memories of the zine Die, Evan Dando, Die.

Evan's written some good pop tunes and the recent album isn't bad on the whole.
But playing with the MC5? I. Don't. Think. So.
