'War Stories'


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.

tina, thanks! Covers = good. Bowie = good. Bowie covers? = doubleplusgood.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

I have so many Bowie covers, it's nearly unseemly. How about Blondie doing Heroes?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Congratulations Jim and Penny, and welcome Seth John!

I hope the labor wasn't difficult.

Yay for Jim and Penny, and a hurrah for wee Seth!

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

P-C. I don't know if you'll be in Texas at the time, but Justin's looking for people to be in a Max Cady video.

Get ready for your close-up: Max Cady needs fans to appear in the band's music video for the song "Tonight Alive," which will feature a mix of live performances and shots of "fans at home, singing and rocking out." The only requirements are that rockers must be in the Dallas area (or willing to come to the Dallas area), be "very uninhibited in front of the camera and know all the lyrics to the song."

If you're interested, I can give you J's email. It's in the article, but I didn't want to reprint it here.

Dude! Good thing I didn't just skip. When are they filming? It looks like I'll be in town around the end of May/beginning of June. Profile addy is good. And if I can't be there, maybe my brother can do it. Although he's going to Houston for the summer at the time I'll be leaving, so.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Insent, P-C. Also we went to see a couple of bands last night. Actually we went to see one band but stayed for the second. The first was a friend of Mr. H's band. It's kinda a gothy punky thing called the Flickerstick Subs. The basist needs a Jili-like plush doll. She's got blonde dreadlocks and a babydoll face.

We stayed for the next band A Boy Named Sue because they had a fiddle, and I haven't been to see a band with a fiddle in a while. Loved, loved, loved them. They played a hoedown version of Donkee Butt I wish Aimee could have heard.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Tina - Thanks! You're the first person I know of who's used the podcast (I haven't really publicized it at all).

I've been recovering from a stomach flu (flu-addled show now available for podcast!) and I haven't had a chance to pick my song for the gmail thingie. I'll get to it soon but if the next person wants to jump ahead, feel free.

Are you ready to be strong?

Happy anniversary, Hec & JZ!!!

Feel better, Jon.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I just signed up for a two week trial at emusic. I still have about 30 songs I can download. Anyone have any suggestions?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Perkins-- post some of your faves and then the collective music-mind can come up with a list of songs to round things out.

ION-BF is reviewing the new Stereophonics CD, so we've been listening to to it for the last few days. Very nice stuff.
