Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

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.

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thanks, y'all! They totally had all my songs. Ah, Sander Kleinenberg.

I even figured out who the shapenote stuff I have is! I still have some classical unidentified, but I'm not dedicated enough today to slog through it all.

Edit: My music collection is possibly more random than that of the average person.

Are you ready to be strong?

Insanely stupid move by EMI, from a friend who's in a band on Capitol:

The album is slated for Aug 30. At the moment we are in the middle of a big battle about copy protection, one we are likely to lose. The head of EMI, which owns Capitol, has decreed that everything from here on out will be copy protected, which will prevent our fans from transferring our songs to their iPods. Fucking kiss of fucking death, if you ask me.... we may have no legal recourse, however.

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

Oh, no! Is that who I think it is?

Somebody will break the DRM in a couple days. They always do. But you should ask if you can send that quote to Cory Doctorow for boingboing's ongoing fight against DRM ...

Up with the sun

That's a very shortsighted move on Capitol/EMI's side. I hope it doesn't hurt Rio's friends band, or other bands, too badly.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Just back from a sold-out Spoon show at Stubb's. Apparently, there's this show on tv called "The O.C." that played a few Spoon songs and, equally apparently, today's youth watch it, because every 18-yr-old in Austin showed. Sally Crewe and the Sudden Moves (featuring my friend Matt on bass) and The Clientele, who sound like Felt, opened. 'Cause of my sweet journalistic connections, I had a VIP badge and spent most of the Spoon portion of the show on the balcony with the industry phonies and hangers-on, where I could see Britt Daniels' pedalboard and the organist, but, y'know, the pedalboard was a pretty big draw for me.
