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.

I have to say that I can't understand half the words on The Streets' recent album. That last song is pretty clear, and yes, sad, though.

Squeeeeee! I'm going to see the Cure next week!
(The Curiosa festival was supposed to be here last weekend, but was cancelled due to an emergency. To make up for it, the Cure are playing a 3-hour show next week. Just the Cure, no other bands. The reason I didn't buy a ticket for the Curiosa festival was because I didn't know enough about the other bands to be willing to pay $50 for a ticket. However, $50 for 3+ hours of just the Cure? Oh yes, I am going.)

Hey, alt-country fans: Jimmie Dale Gilmore TODAY on Leonard Lopate's "Survival Kit" segment. (What would you take to a desert island or sonwbound cabin if you had to be stranded?) For whatever reason this segment doesn't get archived, so if you want to hear it you'll have to listen at 1:30 EDT.

Speaking of Jimmy Dale, anybody get that recently released live Flatlanders record? It's tempting me. It's got a Townes cover on it too, I think.

Jilli, we saw them a couple of weeks ago here- as part of Curiosa, though we were given tickets. Was great! Good mix of old and new. He loved the crowd. Even at Starplex (Or Smirnoff or whatever they're calling it nowadays) it was a good show.

Hayden, I'm about to go away for the weekend but I can do you a set of Cliff Notes for Grand Don't Come for Free , either just for you or for The High hat, if you like....

jili, the Cure were amazing when I saw them. Have fun at the show!
I have vowed to myself that I will always shill out whatever it costs to see two bands: U2
When U2 came to D.C. last, I forgot tickets were going on sale until the next day, when they were all sold out. I ended up paying a scalper an insane amount of money, I think $120 per ticket.
It was totally and completely worth it.

I come to thee, the music gurus, in search of knowledge.
I've just stumbled on the oddest, most interesting indie radio station. It's sort of hard-rocky, metal-y, guitars and pianos and angry young men--plus Johnny Cash doing "Personal Jesus." The DJ only talks to give station IDs--no, he did cut a song off midway and said, "That's too depressing. Here's something else."--there have been no commercials, and it's driving me nuts that he's not naming the songs he's playing.
So. First song I'd like ID'd. The chorus is (see tagline) "Crawling on my roof is a woman who is also a mongoose." The second is Irish, and hte chorus is "No ball or chain or prison shall keep, we're the rebels of the Sacred Heart."
