A Kyuss website turned up in my dreams last night! And I haven't even listened to it yet!

x-post ARGH!!! no wonder they make those silly "promise ring" things with the freaky disembodied hands on them.

My 2 Pola Negri DVDs just arrived from the states!

Check out the story on one of them, WTF:

Look bellzouki copies with three pickups.

Ed, Thursday, 26 April 2007 12:32 (seventeen years ago) link

The muso corner on Billy Bragg's forum has some interesting stuff, the guitar talk is good.

Ed, Thursday, 26 April 2007 12:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Those aren't bellzouki copies! Those are fake Vox Teardrops!

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 12:36 (seventeen years ago) link

some of this guy's instruments might interest you, Ed:

Aw yeah...

Ultimately, the Countess confronts the hypocritical Granger at a meeting of the town council. Armed with a horse-whip, she flogs him bloody before the shocked assembly of village elders.

My kind of a lady!

however fucking chr1s m@rt1n plays one

Ed, Thursday, 26 April 2007 12:41 (seventeen years ago) link

So did Brian Jones. (A vox teardrop, at least.)

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 12:42 (seventeen years ago) link

That cutaway 12 string is lovely.

Ed, Thursday, 26 April 2007 12:44 (seventeen years ago) link

Ha ha ha, we are comparing the looks of the new interviewees, cause apparently the last one they interviewed had beautiful cheekbones. I keep asking them to hire some eye candy for us ladies, but they never do!

And then somehow we got on the "I want a beard" conversation.

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 12:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Ah! Apparently if you get minoxadil on your face, you will grow facial hair! So what if I got it and rubbed it on my cheeks, would I get sideburns?!?!? Awesome! Too bad it's prescription only.

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 12:49 (seventeen years ago) link

mmmm Mulligatawny Soup = awesome lunches

Why do no two mulligatawnies ever taste the same?

I shall now contemplate afternoon CAKE.

onimo, Thursday, 26 April 2007 12:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Ha ha, I've just remembered I used to think Mulligatawny soup was Irish when I was a lad

Tom D., Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:03 (seventeen years ago) link

No one else has mailed me all day - except a couple of Nigerian gentlemen wanting to share their ill gotten gains with me. :-(

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:03 (seventeen years ago) link

I sent you an email kate

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:06 (seventeen years ago) link

and teh kit should've got it too. hmmm. maybe I need to resend.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:07 (seventeen years ago) link

OK, I just got that one, too.

Just so you know, Kerr - I'm not gonna be able to check my email for the next 10 days starting tomorrow. Or at least, I'm not supposed to type at all.

OK, Kyuss were alright until the dude started singing and he's total CONSTAPATION ROCK!!!!

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:07 (seventeen years ago) link

I used to think that but then John Garcia grew on me. Still prefer Josh Homme singing though.
Garcia is great in Unida/Hermano where the vocals suit it more.
I guess you don't like Ian Astbury singing for The Cult then? Since the voices are pretty much the same.(Garcia's influences he says are Ian Astbury and Earth Wind & Fire)

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:10 (seventeen years ago) link

er ok thanks

g-kit, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:39 (seventeen years ago) link

I think The Cult may well be my answer to the "You Owned More Than One Album By Them. You Listened To Them Fairly Often. You Knew, In Your Heart Of Hearts, That They Really Weren't Very Good." thread on ILM that I haven't posted to.

onimo, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:41 (seventeen years ago) link

Ian Astbury was never quite *that* constipated. He was more Rubber Plant influenced. And Rubber Plant isn't constipation rock, he is "he's got plyers on his balls" rock.

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:43 (seventeen years ago) link

Ian Astbury was well constipated... and not fit to lace Planty's moccasins!

Tom D., Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:44 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm on another call with TTH right NOW! She's still TT&H today.

Dr.C, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:44 (seventeen years ago) link

No, he was definitely plyers on balls school of RAWK singing, not constipation rock.

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:45 (seventeen years ago) link

He was trying for pliers on his balls but came out constipated

Tom D., Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:47 (seventeen years ago) link

x-x-post, dammit I need a new IRL crush. Like, not a celeb crush or a crush on a dead person, but an actual crush on a person I can look at, and interact with and speak to (or fail to speak because I am being too googly-eyed crushed out).

There were too many ex-crushes there last night, and it just made me vaguely disappointed. I mean, Jim's cute but he just looks WAY TOO MUCH like my brother which is totally creepy, and besides, he's kind of too awkward about being crushed on. Joe remains hott, but then again he plays BANJO which excludes proper crushability.

And I think I just want someone totally new. Am jealous of how Emsk was talking about her hair-twirling and Dr. C with his puppydog eyes thing.

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:49 (seventeen years ago) link

He was trying for pliers on his balls but came out constipated

Ever tried taking a shit with pliers on your balls?

(me neither but I don't imagine I'd be too keen)

onimo, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:50 (seventeen years ago) link

What a bizarre conversation.

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:51 (seventeen years ago) link

Plyers on his balls school of RAWK singing = AC/DC.

Constipation rock school of RAWK singing - Journey, Asia, Eddie Money, etc.

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 13:52 (seventeen years ago) link

NEW CRUSH NOW!!! NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!

Grrrrr.

I feel sleepy, I think I've had too much sugar again.

Masonic Boom, Thursday, 26 April 2007 14:01 (seventeen years ago) link

Kate> since you won't be able to type for 10 days can you start a new cooler please? This one is quite long. (also can we have a best krautrock poll or something?)

Brigadier Lethbridge-Pfunkboy, Thursday, 26 April 2007 14:01 (seventeen years ago) link

Eddie Money? Nobody outside the USA has any idea what Eddie Money sounds like!

Tom D., Thursday, 26 April 2007 14:02 (seventeen years ago) link

No, no more polls on the Cooler, as we lose the results when the threads get locked. OK, I will start a new one.
