What Can't You Find On The Internet?

^^ congrats. does this FEEL AWESOME?

IT FEELS AWESOME

The original soundtrack to "Joysticks" the 1983 movie. I'm looking for the song "Vidiot" in particular.

Look for Joysticks DVDrip & convert the audio?

The Wassailing Song by Blur except iirc one crap YouTube. I search this out every so often in the hopes it's changed: in the tape happy 90s, someone sent me it on a mixtape :(

It's been officially re-released on disc 16 here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blur_21

Oh shit! Of course, I never bought that because I was broke at the time, and when I had the money I bought the vinyl box instead. I'll hunt it out!

Thank you!

If the mail address you used to register on ILX still works, I've sent you a mail about this (check your spam folder perhaps)

It does, but the email was empty? Shall check from a computer later today (only on phone at the moment) - the wassailing bowl I drink to thee!

I seem to remember in 1987 or 1988 some band putting a full page advert in the NME praising The Beatles 'Helter Skelter'. Always thought is was Sonic Youth but can't find anything about it online. Did I dream it? (Even if true it's probably less interesting than I remember it.)

I don't know, but I started reading NME with the Christmas 87 issue and think I would have remembered this, so if it happened I'd say it was pre-88.

There was a thread about sitting with one leg tucked underneath you and I can't find it and I need it because I'm starting to wonder if my inability to sit like a normal adult is indicative of some greater issue at hand. Help.

Right now I am sitting in a lotus position on my desk chair and this weekend my dad was saw me doing it at the dining table and was like "Why can't you just ever sit normal?!" :(

I wish I could sit in a lotus position on my desk chair. I'd last about 20 seconds.

ENBB -

Was it this one?

Sit Like A Normal Person!

It wasn't but that's the general idea.

why do I sit with my legs folded under me until they go to sleep and then ARGGGGHHH WHY WHY WHY

There's a separate thread for things you can't find on ILX by the way. But maybe you couldn't find it.

this is pretty hard but i think it was posted to ilx once -

a bit of concept art, some (mb) red&black text on a white background containing a robert barry-style instruction. it was something about banging two rocks together in the desert, "do it a thousand times"

x-post - Yes, I know but I was too lazy to look tbh.

(also, thank you)

can anyone find the clip of Charlie Rich burning John Denver's announcement at the 1975 CMA Awards? it surfaced on youtube last year, but it's since been taken down :(

So recently I learned that my first concert was Roy Orbison and The Beach Boys sometime in the 80s, at Lake Lanier Islands. I am still trying to track down the date/year of this show but what I would really love is to stumble upon a bootleg of it.

That reminds me:

A video of Roy Orbison and The Voice of the Beehive on ITV's Night Network late-night show, reviewing the week's new videos on a, including I Started Something I Couldn't Finish by the Smiths.

I remember Roy Orbison expressing empathy at Morrissey's sadness.

Internet tells me it was 15 Nov 1987.

Lately I've been thinking about a pair of online diaries that I remember reading around 1999-2001, some time in that range. Unfortunately I can't remember the exact names of the diaries or who wrote them, so Google proves pretty unhelpful, as you can see below. Anybody remember either of these?

1. Diary of High School Nerd - pretty sure this was pretty close to the right name, but now all I can see to find are links to High School Musical fanfic. This was a kid who self-described as a comedy nerd, over the course of it I believe he either transferred from a religious school to a public one or vice versa. I think the guy who wrote it went on to do some comedy writing on the web at one point.

2. Diary of a 40 Year Old Virgin - not sure on the exact title, but it was close to this. It way predated the Steve Carrell movie, which has since made it really hard to search for. The guy was in his 40s and a huge gym rat, but he mostly wrote about his struggles dating and meeting women.

Lanier Land Music Park, Cummings, GA June 11, 1983

The Life and Times of a 41-Year-Old Virgin

"As for a loser like me, well, all I get is grief. I was at the store getting some Bush's baked beans, and as I was walking down the main aisle, some woman flew out from a side aisle and barely missed me with her shopping cart. I opened up Lou's School of Etiquette immediately. I said, "Excuse me, stupid!" real loud. She kept going and muttered that I must hate myself. I told her, "Awww, shaddup you ol' krunk!" She came back and said, "Excuse me, do you want me to call the police?" I said, "Go ahead, make my day!" She didn't have a clue about how stupid she was. But, she sure knew that I was wrong. She needs to go home and simmer her head in some chicken broth. It is a good thing that I am a benevolent monk."

wtf

That's it! Thanks.

Haha, yeah, it's... uh.. something.

lol

I remember reading his Loser Living Upstairs diary about 5 years ago and being a little creeped out by the obsessiveness of it all. but this is obviously creative/comedy writing, right?

Loser was up and around again at 12:29 in full pacing glory. If I had to guess, I'd say the blinds are shut and the shades are pulled down. Loser has his own secret, dark little empire, but we know he's pulling the bishop! He sat his ass down again, but now the K-Mart is turned up even more. At 12:37, Loser drained the lizard. At 1:03, Loser was on the phone for five seconds, or else you know what he was doing. At 1:08, Loser is allegedly on the phone for twenty seconds. Then, he turns the K-Mart down. At 1:09, Loser was in the can. Nine minutes later, one flush. A second flush. A third flush. Loser had a THREE-FLUSHER! At 2:02, Loser sprung back to life and broke into a feverish pace. He began pacing in a circular fashion at 2:05. He made three loops, then left at 2:10. He returned five minutes later and then left again immediately. Loser is a man on the move!

He mentions Hearts of Space. Is that the legendary new age radio show?

oh shit, thanks! (just saw your post now)

The 2008 feature film 'Wednesday Again.'

The Merv Griffin Show Season 7 Episode 158
March 27, 1970

Merv's guests are Mark Frechette and Daria Halprin stars of "Zabriskie Point", youth militant leader Abbie Hoffman, TV personality Virginia Graham and National Review editor Tony Dolan with regular Arthur Treacher.

this funny porn clip of a bloke who looks like anthony kiedis having anal sex but he sings an improvised song throughout (which begins with the line "Now i'm in your ass yeah!") - literal funniest thing I've ever seen and it seems to have vanished.

Bruce Robinson's preferred, rejected (by the director) draft of the screenplay for Fat Man and Little Boy.

The reaction shots halway through that Charlie Rich video are priceless!

I want someone to upload a version of Kraftwerk's "Electric Cafe" at 45rpm to Youtube. This is what was used as the Sprockets theme song.

Also I want more Sprockets!

I can't find old Franklin Institute commercials

I can't find videotapes of 90-year-olds getting their diapers changed!

The live version of Kelsey Grammer/Frasier singing 'Hear the blues' youtube video used on here as a rickroll. Where is it?
