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.

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

# Covered Danzig's Mother. It fucking rocked.

Whoa. Really want this bootleg.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Truly you do. And if you find it, remember your old pal here.

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

I am in Boston (with no hope of Free Time, sadly) but I got to run into Newbury Comix tonight and thought fondly of all you people who always talk about the cool stuff they buy there.

I bought two Smiths CDs.

I bought Husker Du's cover of 8 Miles High at Newbury! (Well, okay, the Cambridge one, cuz that's where I did all my shopping. Also bought my George of the Jungle t-shirt there.)

I bought two Smiths CDs.

Which two? I'm guessing Strangeways is one of them.

You can hear me give a paper at the BU Sherman Union tomorrow at 9:35 a.m. I know, HUGE THRILL.

OH! I was on a bus tour of the Great Libraries of Boston today as part of my conference and saw the Miniature Books exhibit and thought of you and FAQ Girl ...

Awwww.

We're going to sleep now (long day), but if one doesn't need a badge to get into the hall, we just might see you there!

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

msbelle -- yes, of course, and no, respectively.

I am listening to the new Hold Steady album today, as "Your Little Hoodrat Friend" is too catchy to resist. I wince that they have to issue press releases saying, no, we're not into this sound ironically, but good for them for doing so. Won't stop the hipsters, but what does?

Hipsters like catchy pop songs too!

Just for my own fun, and because Gandalfe seemed interested, I've just posted some rare glam rock at buffistarawk. I did it in four sets of two, roughly thematic. It includes some very good Bolan style glam, some in the art rock vein including Eno's single only "Seven Deadly Finns" and Canada's greatest Glam moment, "Roxy Roller." Free for the taking.

They should all be in the In Box.
