CD I can do- press kit with what, a press release and pictures? (I've seen them for movies, but not bands).
Riley: Oh, yeah. Sorry 'bout last time. Heard I missed out on some fun. Xander: Oh yeah, fun was had. Also frolic, merriment and near-death hijinks.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Maybe you're kidding, but we'd run any and all of those in a heartbeat.
Heh. The Charlton Heston one is something I promised to do for Scram a long time back. The others are just pop riffing - I'm not sure if they'd bear that kind of scrutiny. Well, Antonioni's sink in reputation is definitely worth a discussion, even if I wouldn't want to write it.
But thanks for the invitation - I'll think of something juicy. I read most of the current issue and it kicks righteous ass.

Got ahold of sister's boyfriend. They have a press kit! Thanks Jon!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
No problemo. If you know the booking guy, it might be worth handing him the stuff in person. Then follow up a couple of weeks later (or ask him when you should follow up).

Jon, you should TiVo the special episode of Fairly Odd Parents (on Nickelodeon) titled "Channel Chasers" - there's a beautiful Hannukah takeoff on A Charlie Brown Christmas.

Hec! I was roaming through the local B&N (aaaah, airconditioning!) earlier tonight, and your Bubblegum book was on the shelf as a Staff Pick!

Right on! Must be the same store that Ple mentioned (and wondered if it would give her a chance to talk to the cute music guy at the store). As my book has pretty much left the shelves in San Francisco, I have to say Seattle is winning me over.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
I don't know if these things have ever been mentioned in the Buffista music thread(s) but if you're looking for live bootleg shows, check out these sites:
Bittorrent users can get some brilliant shows from [link] or [link] (although it should be said that STG is having some major problems and their tracker is currently not working).
If you don't want to use Bittorrent, a dedicated P2P network has been created for the sharing of "legal" (artist or band has given permission for free sharing of bootleg recordings) shows using a java client called [link] ... Furthurnet has the same advantages and disadvantages of Bittorrent (with the biggest disadvantage being fewer bands/artists to choose from).

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Dude. I just caught the end of the "Girl Anachronism" video on Trio. That was almost as surprising as hearing Frou Frou in Wonderfalls.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
x-post from Bufistechnology:
What's the best sortware (linux, OS X or Win XP) for ripping or copying a damaged music CD?
I had thought that cdparanoia for linux was the best, but it looks like the most recent version is from 2001? Will that work on my Fedora Linux?
Both iTunes and Toast Titanium (v 6) for OS X are unable to rip/copy one track. It does play in my car stereo, though.
