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.
They all start with different letters of the alphabet.
Uh, she likes more than one band? No, I got nothin'.
Art Girl Troika! PJ Harvey & Bjork & Tori Amos
One of these things is not like the others... (Tori, I'm looking at you!)
I'm going to see GbV tonight!!! I'm going to see Tegan & Sara tomorrow!!! I love exclamation points!!!
La la la, I'm seeing Voltaire tonight!
I hope you know that you are a bitch. IJS.
Hee!
The show was very good. He even included a shout-out to my favorite Seattle DJ when singing "When You're Evil": "And no one loves you when you're ... DJ Eternal Darkness! Which is untrue, because the man is *lucious*."
(Since I was in the DJ booth standing right next to DJ Eternal Darkness, I got to watch him get all giddy and flustered. It was cute.)
The merchandise booth was selling Voltaire's new book, What Is Goth?. It's a very funny, affectionate look at the Goth scene. I *highly* recommend it.
It all looks like pretty MOR rock to me.
MOR? And yeah, really not that diverse.
I'm going to see Tegan & Sara tomorrow!!!
Awesome! Have fun!
MOR? And yeah, really not that diverse.
Middle-of-the-road. The kind of rock pop radio stations will play, basically.
MOR?
Middle Of the Road.
You may well ask, why not MOTR?
The obvious answer is to avoid confusion with Neu's Motorik beat. Duh.
I like the Swans cover of "Love Will Tear Us Apart" but lately I'm obsessed with the Bis cover. Because the only thing better than Joy Division is robots playing Joy Division.
Everything is better with robots.
Frankenbuddha, were you at the Swans show at the Somerville Theater a few years back? I remember it being like a pressure cooker in there, but I think it was more a result of the music than any actual possibility of violence from the crowd.
No, it was at the late, unlamented club that Aerosmith opened (Mama Kins? I think) on Landsdowne street. The vibe I couldn't quite place whether it was the music or the crowd. I tend to think it was a symbiosis. If nothing else, the Swans were as INTENSE a band as I've ever seen. Not the loudest or the most crowd-rousing (for lack of a better term), but there was this huge VIBE in the room that promised explosion.
