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.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

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.
I cannot, cannot, cannot wait for that "is that who I think it is" album. In fact, I believe I am going to buy their EP off iTunes tomorra. Will report back, although if I say anything other than "it's fab!" you can all chime in and say the classic "who are you and what have you done with erinaceous?"
Oh, and I am looking for songs about dresses for my new blog. Which I think I mentioned here before but I can't find it so forgive me if you've heard this one before.

I presume you have "My Favourite Dress" by The Wedding Present.

Would Bowie's "Fashion" work?

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."
I downloaded the free version of the MusicMagic Mixer that's now included in Roxio's BoomBox Suite. I haven't really sat down to play, but out of curiosity I picked out The Verve's 'Bittersweet Symphony' to see what it would give me for a mix. Among other things, 3 Clay Aiken songs.
Mebbe I shall let my iPod's soul be it's pilot.
