I am going to no shows; having missed Dar Williams at the Birchmere I must observe a period of sulking for a month.
Booooo! If you want, you can read my detailed account of seeing her last year and pretend you were there.
Saffron: You won't tell anyone about me breaking down? Mal: I won't. Saffron: Then I won't tell anyone how easily I got your gun out of your holster. Mal: I'll take that as a kindness.

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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The new GBV is sounding a bit better to me now. Not their best work, but given how prolific they are, that's hardly a dis. I'll probably air a couple of songs from it this a.m.

Did anyone else find it weird that Bjork was singing at the opening Olympics ceremonies?
If by weird you mean weidly brilliant, then yes!
Looking forward to the new album; as far as I'm concerned the more ethereal the better, Bjork is after all not to be judged by normal human criteria.

Bjork works on my last nerve.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Björk has just about the most amazing voice of anyone I'm a fan of. My fave Björk song is still "Birthday" by the Sugar Cubes. Sometimes her singing on that song sends chills down my spine....

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Maybe we should judge her as a swan. I firmly believe she could break a grown man's arm with one beat of those... forelimb... thingies.

So she wore the corpse of her own kind to the Oscars?

Well, that would explain her laying the egg....

No, no, it was just stunned! Beautiful plumage, the Icelandic Björkswan.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
She's pining for the fjords.
