alas, now they are worm food.
this morning as i parked the car in the garage at my office building, i heard the first few notes of surrender by cheap trick. slight disappointment arose within me when i realized it was not the version from budokan. yet i still listened because it's a good song. cried a bit or something, memories.

last week i was smoking a cigarette in the parking lot outside of where I was working that day and the prodigy's breathe came on right when I was done with the cigarette so I turned the radio off and walked towards the gate I had to go through but some public works guys had parked their car near the gate and they were blasting the rest of breathe by the prodigy and when one of them asked me for a cigarette I said I was out

hurtingchiefWow, thank you for the great introduction to this music called "Jazz." Miles Davis, huh, I will have to check that guy out. Glad the Voice is still around to shine a light on the hidden corners of the music world.

I like how he confuses "raucous" with "ruckus" in the Mingus bit. Well done.

Oh man, I fucking hate when people do that. But it's so common that "jive" is about to overtake "jibe."

he is apparently old enough to drive a car so i guess its safe to assume he isn't 12. which would be the only excuse for this thing i can come up with. though that might actually be offensive to actual 12 year old kids.

honestly I did not know it was "jibe" till just now.
