Saw them live circa 1986. Most fun I've ever had at any concert I've attended.
I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

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."

As videos go it was fairly standard 80s pop surrealism. I just didn't know they had any videos for that song or any other.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Hec, when does the new book come out?
I'm thinking of asking Quimbys if they can order it for me (assuming they otherwise wouldn't have it.) Would that be helpful? I'm thinking that if they order a copy for me they might order one or two more copies for their shelves....

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Not Hec (who is probably frantically proofreading the proofs as I type), but the tentative publication date is October 26. And ordering is probably definitely helpful.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Odd. Just as I was listening to the Tartan Horde song, "Bay City Rollers, We Love You", this was the quote at the top of the screen:
The Bay City Rollers, now that's music.
