From Geeklife: Songs in the Key of Pope:
Cardinals took a vote and ack ack ack ack
Cardinals shot some smoke ack ack ack ack
Like this ack ack ack ack
Like this ack ack ack ackAll the papers mourn John Pauly
All the radios shout his name
…
Not exactly what I expected 
Anyhow, it’s a great song, even if it is under 30 seconds in some manifestations.
Aw cool… We Jam Econo, The Minutemen movie, will be at AS220 next week. Post a note in the comments if you’re going. Some peer pressure might be just what I need to get my butt out the door…
Light and Dark in
the Lyrics of Robert Hunter: “We humans spend our lives bumbling
along, and occasionally we have moments of insight, or of grace. They
don’t last long, but they somehow make life more worth living.”
Boston
Herald: “The Pixies have just been added to the lineup of the
Dunkin’ Donuts Newport Folk Festival.” (er… if you’re wondering
about the whole Rhode Island/Dunkin’ Donuts thing… well, it is what it
is. Just have a donut with me and clam up.)
A simple google
search cuts through it all.
CREEM
Online: “It wasn’t rock ‘n’ roll for sissies then, and you can bet
your ass it won’t be now.” (via SE–not
necessarily safe for work)
Sweet. Looks like there’s some good Lester Bangs stuff in the archive,
and a mess of stuff I could spend days exploring. Now, are they gonna
get the Mad Peck to draw comix for
them again? Don’t make me come over there…
I finally picked up How the
West Was Won–I can be frugal at times, and I waited until my credit card points were enough for
$50 in Best Buy cards. Then I picked up the two items on my wish list; that album, and the extended
version of Fellowship of the Ring. However, my Mac kept spitting out disc two of HtWWW, but my PC
could read it fine, so iTunes for Windows to the rescue, and I’ll have it in my music collection
before long.
 For some reason, this song title popped into my head about a week ago, and I’ve been trying to remember who did it. It finally popped into my head while I was sitting at a computer, and a Google Search on that phrase turns up an article about that band, the Reverb Motherfuckers. Now it’s all coming back to me. The album was Route 666 and was absolutely fantastic from beginning to end. (update: I still have a copy of it… w00t! … now I just need a turntable…) |

Marketos: “the topiary outside her house is where/I’ll be found”
Sounds like Sam will be
first in line for the new Zeppelin DVD and CD.
