Why Ask Why?
That is a great marketing campaign. Why think? Drink.
This could be a combination of the shirts that we were talking about. Could what we saw last night be called the exact opposite of "Cherub Rock" (the genre, not the song)? From 930 Club people, Nick Oliveri was there on one of the balconies?!?!?! Why not get on stage. Stupid.
Well, the college hockey tournament started. The Frozen Four is April 7th. The other other Final Four gets goin on Tuesday. Does Lou Holtz coach South Carolina Basketball too?

Infrequency and Indie Punching. Not Professionalism.

Why be wise? Imbibe.
Being awake sucks.
You sure they're not thinking of the dude standing next to us? I mean, he looked like the guy. I'm not saying it was Nick Olivieri (I feel like he's smaller, but then again Josh Homme is a big dude), but it was definitely someone cultiviating a Nick Olivieri look. I kept an eye on the stage balconies and saw no one at all. Also woulda thunk Olivieri-esque dude would have reacted more strongly to mentions of his (?) name.
Lou Holtz has an excellent name. Not in a Manute Bol kinda way, but more in a "if I want my kid to grow up and be a football coach, I have to give him a two-syllable, vaguely ethnic name with at least three consonants in a row at some point" kind of way.
I really like that the drummer used to be in Danzig. Danzig, much like a tiny house is "kinda awesome."
930 Club people said Nick was on the balcony on our side (that we couldn't see). I wouldn't doubt it, this is out there. I guess it doesn't matter at all.
The Slouch reminds us that baseball is stupid.
Ted Leo's rights are being debated. Real Ted Leo responds with comments for those who live in Newcastle-on-Tyne. It doesn't look like he'll be back around for a while.....Since he's been gone......
No. 4 starter, No. 1 in "Men's Fatness" magazine's poll of MLB players (Cecil Fielder finaly gave up his position).
Cindy Ponson has got to be fictional. Baseball is the only sport with flakes this hardcore. Ricky Williams has nothing on Sir Sidney.
I thought the only way to and from that onstage balcony was through our perch - although that probably violates fire codes. I doubt Nick Olivieri is a lot of fun.
Initially I figured Ted Leo's rights to "Since U Been Gone" were being debated.
Steph Font has a nifty "playlist" posted on her blog, I may look into getting a playlist function on ours (especially since our counter seems to have quit).
Anyway, I cringed to go through my "25 most played list" - I've been listening to a lot of Nickel Creek lately, they're a cred-killer - and I was surprised to see it made a lot of sense. Top few:
Nick Lowe - "(What's so Funny Bout) Peace Love and Understanding"
Postal Service - "Such Great Heights"
Radiohead - "True Love Waits"
Ted Leo - "Me and Mia", "One who Got us Out", "Counting Down the Hours"
Decemberists - "July, July!", "Billy Liar"
Pavement - "Rattled by the Rush"
Morrissey - "Irish Blood, English Heart"
No sign of Annie, or Kylie Minogue, which is a relief. I think it also doesn't count songs that I don't let play all the way through, which disqualifies all dance-punk as well as Black Flag.
Yep.
Note: Pitchfork is unusually kind to Brendan Benson in today's review. I like the guy, but understand the criticism. I think this is a case of pitchfork giving a review to someone who likes the genre, rather than handing it to the guy who loves "Arular."
How bout this guy?
I love that guy. I saved that to my computer at home and think it might make it into the desktop background rotation.
My iPod has the caught the drained battery disease. I might need to send it away for $80-$100 worth of help. I think there was an article in GQ or Esquire about the best places on the interweb to get it done. Crap.
Here is the curse-laden version of Go with the Flow from last night. According to people close to the stage, the airbourne item was a stuffed animal (perhaps the rabbit of easter, bringing of the chocolate).
Blogger's being crappy. I really want to listen to that mp3, but alas...
That's a shame (about yr iPod)... Did they give you a whole new battery when it was refurbished, or do you have the original owner's? That would be a sticking point for me...
No top tracks to post? I can't find a playlist tool for blogger - they're all too nifty and tied to iTunes or whatever. I just want, like, a sub-blog - and I do not have the inherent ability to add that.
I doubt they put a new battery in when they refurbished it so my battery is easily 1.5+ yrs old.
I can't, for that reason, get into my iPod and see my top 25 tracks. Plus I think I changed my preferences so that option doesn't pop up.
