Your Musical Thought of the Day, 8/29

Now maybe I'm dirty and maybee I smoke a little dope
But it ain't like I'm going on T.V. and tearing up pictures of the Pope
I know I get wild I know I get drunk
But it ain't like I gotta lot of bodies in my trunk
My old man used to call me a no good punk
And I still don't why

--Todd Snider, "Alright Guy"

--Roy Brown, orig. covered by many, "Good Rockin' Tonight"

Rock and Roll Night @ Fat Fannie's, 8/20

It was National Radio Day, and we tried to turn up the volume on a set that recalled the days when real actual people chose the songs that got played, and stations sounded different in different parts of the country, and didn't play the same crap incessantly without any variety and good bands got rewarded for having talent. *rant over, sure to start up again in a matter of minutes.*

Your Musical Thought of the Day, 8/9

Well maybe I'm the faggot America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along in the age of paranoia.

Green Day, "American Idiot"

A plea for sanity

Dear Mr. Radio Station programmer:

STOP PLAYING THAT FUCKING COLDPLAY SONG!!!! HAVE YOU NO SOUL? For the love of all things holy, enough. They were never that good to begin with. Don't make me take a baseball bat to your soundboard.


Warmest regards,

Me

You Musical Thought of the Day, 8/5

Word to your moms I came to drop bombs
I got more rhymes than the bible's got psalms
And just like the Prodigal Son I've returned
Anyone stepping to me you'll get burned
Cause I got lyrics and you ain't got none
So if you come to battle bring a shotgun

--- House of Pain, "Jump Around"
