Vile Evils.
yes!
on npr i’d rather listen to wait wait and cartalk with those knuckleheads who are probably in their seventies, talking about car issues. what’s great about those guys is they both graduated from MIT,so they know what they’re talkin’ about. keillor i can live without.too granny for me.(and i DID grow up in the midwest)
btw, chase down that lohan movie–not bad.
she has that charm.
the cartalk guys do take calls from callers after giving advice–to prove their point, i guess. people call in with pretty good results.
car-man-gary, have an excellent birthday week.
not the smokin’pickup?
confess.
i didn’t believe these things actually existed until i saw one. looks sawed off.
the first time i drove a karmann ghia i almost crashed–in chicago, in the rain, under a viaduct.sweet car.damn. now i’m jealous.
those italians know how to do the body work. damn it.

halloween . jamie lee.i know you guys will NEVER believe this.
i was on a plane once with a certain famous groupie and jamie lee came running out of first class and she was totally coked out of her head.apparently, she’s cleaned up, judging by the new yogurt ads.
last night I caught the nin show in NJ. I managed to time getting my tickets from will-call and when they opened the doors for general admission so I got in with all the die-hards who’d been there since like before noon. So i lucked out and got barrier in front… show was great. amazing lightshow… trent up close comes off as a tiny guy who’s been lifting alot… and the show reminded me how much I hate people. It was like a typical concert scene. Horrible banter before the show “Oh roger waters post live aid is cool with the pink floyd dudes? I did not know that. oh and gilmore is now sitting on his ass to make the reunion wait to prove a point? no kidding he tell you that?”… “no over the grapevine was not on antipop it was on tales from the punchbowl” “just for shits and giggles let’s let the whole arena know what you’re all time top 5 shows were, cause we care”
and the whole scene of the girls that are up on the barrier arm and arm crying their way through hurt… i mean really? still? and if you are up front and center do you have to bug the fuck out that people are pushing on you? i’m just venting now… the show was amazing… if you went to see ministry you have no reason to miss this one. people just suck
oh the new slipknot is a goldmine of wonderfull lyrical poetry. such as “my only key is broken, my broken key is only” etc.
I know a bunch of us on here are musicians and all… and would you guys really still feel “cool” with the whole going out and throwing yourself all over the stage in a mask thing after 10 years? I remember when slipknot first got big I was going with my band at the time to this studio to record a few songs… not like a fancy studio one of those shit 15 a hour places. anyway and go in and see this kid who was a total jock in high school with a bunch of kids half his age all doing the mask thing while recording their shit practice… and you just ask yourself why? i mean is he hard core doing the mask thing persona while practicing or is he just a total douchebucket doing the whole mask thing just in general? i mean it was great the first time i saw it, when the band was called mr bungle… eh, i’m just very jaded today… i think i’ll go out front of the house in my robe and just socks and wave my fist at people as they pass by in their fancy cars… damn kids
Currently spinning a few tracks off Dessau’s s/t and Front 242’s “Angels Vs. Animals.”
“YOU PUT ME - YOU PUT ME IN A CAGE!”
I listened to the Up Evil/Evil Off albums a few weeks ago. Good stuff, wears thing pretty fast though. They’ve should have combined the two albums into one, imho.
Today it’s Gojira - From Mars To Sirius.
Listening to Coil at the moment:
Black Antlers
The New Backwards
Remote Viewer
all great albums!!
Verve

i like their urban hymns record. this is a show that was recorded not too long ago (few months maybe) and they do a bunch from that record - i wanted to hear what they sound like now.
Interesting feedback on the NIN show there, Pork.
What’d ya pay to get in?
I’d go see NIN but animal control recently noticed a pattern in missing dogs from my neighborhood, triangulated my apartment and moved in this morning during a massive jizz-fest.
That - and most NIN fans shop at Hollister, own the bonus DVD of Juno on Blue Ray and hang stolen Yield signs on their bedroom doors.
i think altogether it was 65. High on the level of which i’d prefer to pay, but this is trent and nin. I mean they deliver either with just the pure energy of watxhing them scream and break shit or some crazy ass light show. I think that only maybe tool is the only other band i’d pay that much for a ticket to see.
UNless the resussurect the corpse of frank zappa or a stadium band pulls one of those one off club shows. I mean shit. After the 15 dollar parking fee i was totally not into the price situation on merch. And i understand the band sets their price at say, 15 a shirt and then the venue jacks up the price by X percentage to make their profit and next thing you know you’ve in the parking lot buying what may or may not be a large or x-large shirt from a guy with about 50 shirts stuffed in a jacket and it’s got nin and the dates on the back, but the perfect circle logo on it, with the 2 half circles just with nin written in the middle instead… actually I passed on the bootleg shirt. And another thing that got me going was a girl passed out, and the fucking front row crew was too damned concerned with keeping their spot against the barricage to turn around and help life up a girl that, i don’t know, may have been dead. and forget them even batting an eye to help the boyfriend of said corpse get a lift over. and here i am mr good sumaritan trying to help everybody out, not elbow people in the back, etc. and still get just nasty nasty looks for essentially making the error of trying to be a good person.
listening to my air conditioning b/c it’s a bajillion degrees outside. oh yeah, and the cat yelling at me.
i want to be listening to patsy cline.
