Although I like Blueberry Boat a hell ofa lot - and am hugely grateful to hayden for it - I think I still pefer Gallowsbird Bark. I find myself humming the songs from GB a lot more often.

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 CDs! (From DX and Teppy). So the mighty Pacific Ocean is not after all unbroachable!
It was hard not to think of the thread title:
Soul star Chaka Khan's son has been arrested for allegedly killing a man at his apartment in Los Angeles. Police confirm that 25-year-old Damien Holland was taken into custody on Friday when a fight turned ugly after Holland and a teenager fought over a rifle. According to American news show Celebrity Justice, an emotional Holland claimed the shooting was an accident. The bail has been set at just over $1 million.
Guns don't kill people. People fighting with guns kill people. Or something like that.
I have CDs!
Whoot!
I have CDs!
That's what I'm talking about. The exchange keeps on truckin.
I'm going to say Woot! because that means I'm second in line for them!
Woot!
eMusic has been revamped. They have music critics to review music, and they are going to focus on non-mainstream (and non-major label) music. Currently they have more than 500,000 songs (which is a lot for an online service) and the songs come in mp3 format with no DRM.
Poking my head in to say that my record-store-employee housemate scored me a promo copy of the new Tom Waits album, Real Gone, and after listening to it for the past two weeks pretty much non-stop, I'm convinced it's his best since The Black Rider.
Run, don't walk, when it's released on 10/5.
Yes, the new Tom Waits is very good. I played something from it on my show last Friday.
Secret message to Jen: I know I owe you an email. Sorry I'm so lame.
In sadder news:
N.Y. Radio Legend Scott Muni Dies at 74
He was one of those DJs who had a voice you never forget.
