Well, it's on the first Disco Not Disco compilation, which is great. I used to always play it when I DJ'd circa 2000/2001, so it was kinda thrown in for old time's sake. Ditto "You Can't Hurry Love."

I don't really know x-chuck but the vast majority of post-Bangs rock critics I have met are straightedge, maybe social drinkers at best.

go figure

This discography is wrong, WOW2 is an album, I've put this comment in here before but someone has removed it, didn't they take any notice. This is mis-information, try one of the external links for a discography they are more acurate, especially on the release dates.

LATER:

+ This discography is wrong, WOW2 is an album, Seadrum isn't and album, I've put this comment in here before but someone has removed it, didn't they take any notice. This is mis-information, try one of the external links for a discography they are more acurate, especially on the release dates. Someone is already trying to remove this, have you not read what I put, do you actually own these releases, have you heard them?

i had forgotten until the other day that i saw shelter on their first tour, whenever the hell that was.

JOR-EL SUCCUMBS TO SYNDROME

!!!: "Me and Giuliani Down by the Schoolyard (A True Story)," ... The 4:19 - 4:49 chunk

Yeah, I vaguely remember a few seconds in the middle that wasn't as much a chore to get through as the rest of it. Haven't heard this in a while, though -- I remember it totally pissing me off at the time for not having anything to do with the Paul Simon classic (my favorite song ever by him) that it takes its name from. Did it sound as much like bad Big Audio Dynamite as !!!'s other stuff (or their other early stuff, anyway, before I gave up on trying to like to like them)? Please refresh my memory.

hahaha oh god I was really stoned when I started this, so of course I forgot that TVOTR won, duh.

i never understood the appeal of pinback, talk about the whole being less than the sum of its parts.
i saw three mile pilot's last tour in a small club, half attended. seriously, one of the most overlooked bands ever. saw thingy's last show in SF in cory brown's living room in cole valley (with the extra glenns and jim yoshi pileup). they did a medley of misfits covers.

so pinback comes to town for their first show and i notice that they're playing the bottom of the hill, so i say "okay, let's head down early around 8:30, grab tickets and check out the openers else we can head to the parkside." so we show up at 8:30, there's a line around the block (which i've never seen at the BOTH) and that's just for willcall. the show had been sold out for weeks.

noone has ever explained this to me.

i heard the first ep, it was okay. i think i remember it, well it was either that or the new zz top, or the jets' "make it real". buy my book!

But (and I hate to admit this...) whatever that CD that came out just after he died...I didn't like that one nearly as much. It was a whole different thing. "Another Thought" wasn't it? Early 90's.

But I was completely amazed to learn later that he'd actually taken a couple stabs at dance music earlier on. That was just weird. Certainly he was a gifted individual in the creative sense. Also I could have sworn I bought some EP of his of earlier on that was very ambient. Holy hell, I just remembered this. Black sleeve. Red letters. Am I wrong? Wow, I had totally forgotten that.

i think bimble is in a category of his own.

Bad form, SS.

what are these good moody blues songs?

I like:

"Go Now!"
"Tuesday Afternoon"
"Ride My See-Saw"
"Question"
"Nights on White Saddles" (or whatever it's called)
"Your Wildest Dreams"

That's more than a handful! (Might like "The Voice," too; need to relisten to that one someday.)

chuck married the art of pretend forgetfulness
y'all niggas still engaged

Today, I like the entire first half of Debbie Gibson's second album a truckload of pistachios better than "One More Cockfarming Motherfucking Ratbastard Son of a Whoring Time". Tomorrow I'll be driving to NYC with a disco-loving Israeli-Russian nihilist and I wouldn't be surprised if the new Daft Punk sounded great to me then. Well, I would be surprised, because the record's fucking gay, but fuck, "Aerodynamic" sounded pretty good last time I listened. Point's that about-faces in taste are fun, the astonishment at liking something you hated just ups the like. Point's also that a bevy of peeps buy Mariah albums and presumably some of them like them and presumably 6 or 8 or at least 2 have gotta have their heads on shoulders not thoroughly implanted up their assholes, so why not try and be one of those 2? She did have that one good song a few years ago with video with the swinging out over water on a happy tire, which I'd really like to know the name of if anyone's up for recollecting. Thanks.

Listening to Linsay Lohan now. Kinda thinking that way too much of it sounds like the single! The Cheap Trick cover is okay. I like the new wave synthesizers in "A Little More Personal." Beyond that, I dunno. I
definitely I think I prefer Linsay more when she's LESS personal. (Oh wait, "If You Were Me" is on now. What a bouncy little bassline:) But she may have no more business doing ballads than Gretchen Wilson.

but which teenager doesnt over share, the adults around her should say something about it no?

we keep forgetting with the tits, and the voice, that lohan is still basically a child.
