we make money not art: Chicken nuggets without the chicken

I love chicken, but I do wonder if we shouldn't send these folks copies of "Frankenstein"...
you know, just as a reminder...

"Bush needs to be asked the question: why do you continue to give Pakistan veto power over our national security?"

I'd love to hear the answer to that one...
maybe someone could hit Scotty with it at the gaggle?

WOW! - Ultimate Houston Ballot

GO VOTE!!

This is amazing.
My experience with these kinds of ballots is that maybe
there's one or two folks or groups in a couple categories
that I know and am cool with, or maybe even excited about voting for...

This time there is more than one category where it's actually hard to choose...
two of my favorite dancers from suchu
(who also happen to be two of my favorite people)
A plethora of IBP folks...
IBP, Dos Chicas and Mildred's Umbrella...
Two Star Symphony, Brad Moore...
lots of familiar folks on the ballot
that all deserve yr support...
so get on with it...

Copy, Right?

Ooooh! Cure covers!
I like this stuff way too much.

Copy, Right?


"The Head on the Door" was the first Cure album I heard when it came out...
probably still my favorite.
Although, I love Three Imaginary Boys.
The Cure as surf punk.
totally right.
Kinda like the earliest Gary Numan stuff
(in that it's great, but not like anything else
they'd ever do.)
And sure I dig the dark psychedelic stuff...
Pornography, etc...
(maybe calling it psych isn't right,
but I kind of think of almost all music I like
that way...)
The cassette of "Staring at the Sea" is the one
I probably listened to the most.
Some of the b-sides were great.
What have we learned here?
I was a scary new-wave/goth wannabe?
hmmm...
yeah, and I spent too much time
listening to The Cure.
Still do.

Willie Nelson - Countryman

Willie Nelson - Countryman

FINALLY!
Some of us (o.k probably just me and my friend John) have been waiting for this since we first heard about it years ago...
even has him playing with some of the original Wailers...
WHOOHOO!

New Willie is always good news!

are YOU feeling Irie?

ok...I'm less a fan of Marshall and some of his peeps than I used to be...
but a new labor blog is, if not worth celebrating,
worth mentioning...

Disquiet: field notes - MORE ENO

Disquiet: field notes

So, apparently I'm going to have to start renting all kinds of things I normally wouldn't.

Eno's version of "You don't miss your water" on the Married to the Mob soundtrack is incredible.
