For those of you who are both Elfman fans and enjoyed the new Charlie and Chocolate Factory, the version of the album for sale through iTunes includes three exclusive bonus tracks. They are remixes that seem to be quite fun, just grabbed the album.
Hey, evil dead, you're in my seat.

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.

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel
I saw the Posies the night before last. The venue was tiny, the band had to walk along the seats beside our table to get off the stage, which made the whole encore thing a bit of a labour. But they were great. Occasionally shirtless and great.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I saw 'em open for the Replacements in 1990, and they were pretty good then. I also saw two of 'em with Big Star.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Word is that the new Big Star album sucks big time: [link]

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.
Oh, help.
My iTunes (with the iPod plugged in) is playing all the songs too fast, and therefore up several pitches. It's really annoying.
I unplugged the iPod and listened to a few songs through just the pod, and it was fine.
Has anyone had this happen?

Have you tried rebooting?

That's my next step. I grew tired of the sped-up music and unhooked the Pod ... will try it again later.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!
It sounds like your Pod is somehow identifying your songs as audiobooks and applying the speed settings to them. Maybe.

His new album came out Tue. and based on the interview and live performance I mentioned here the other day, I'm excited for the album and tour. I've seen him four times (both solo and with Sugar) and he's always good - I didn't see any of the electronica stuff he's been doing the last couple years though.
There's a recent interview with him over at Popmatters.
Now playing: Bobby Bare, Jr. From the End of Your Leash.
I just downloaded this the other day because I am a huge fan of his other album ( Young Criminal Starvation League). This one might be better or at least just as good. He's a darn fine lyricist. "Visit Me in Music City" is about growing up in Nashville where "the cops carry capos in case you want to change your key". "Borrow Your Girl" is about borrowing a friend's motorcycle. Generally, very good.
