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.

A fellow makes himself conspicuous when he throws soft-boiled eggs at the electric fan.

You could go to the SXSW website, where each link is buried in each band's SXSW webpage. This guy is just making it easier by putting all the links on one page.

Thanks!

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Getting in is a competition, at least for bands around here. My bandmate is playing this year for the first time in 12 years of entries, mainly because he plays bass for Gerard Cosley's wife now.

If I only had a brain...

Queen Elizabeth II met four of Britain's most famous guitarists Tuesday, asking them: "And what do you do?" Queen's Brian May, Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck were all guests at a Buckingham Palace party to honor the British music industry.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

"And what do you do?"

Heh. "We all played for a beat combo called The Yardbirds at one time, your Majesty. Except for Brian, that lazy slacker. Keep your eye on him."

I haven't watched WKRP reruns in years, so I had no idea this had happened -- [link] -- a fact oddly missed by this wired article: [link]

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The second-season DVD sets of Quantum Leap and Northern Exposure both contain noticeable music replacements.

Oh fuck. That's some of the best music ever used in a TV show. Hmph. Joss was smart to hire mostly unknown bands to play the Bronze.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Oh fuck. That's some of the best music ever used in a TV show. Hmph. Joss was smart to hire mostly unknown bands to play the Bronze.

Of course, the most egregious music change was not being able to get "Nights in White Satin" for WISEGUY and the climax of the Sonny Steelegrave saga.

Supposedly the MIAMI VICE set managed to snag the original music. That must have cost boatloads, but I suppose it's one of the things you'd need to even bother putting it out.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The answer to the question: Can a song that topped a list of worst songs actually worsen?

Yes. Yes it can.
