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.

"Brown Eyed Handsome Man by Chuck Berry:
Marlo [sic] Venus was a beautiful lass
Had the world in the palm of her hand
Lost both her arms in a wrasslin' match
To meet a brown eyed handsome man
She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man.

What song would you play at every birthday party you would ever throw for yourself?
One of two Prince songs (but I can't decide which) -- "Baby, I'm a Star" or "Sexy Motherfucker."

It looks like my band is playing in NYC! On Sept. 30 at the 169 Bar.
Aside from playing DC a couple of times this will be our first out-o-town show! I'm very excited.
