Today I thought it might be fun to do a little quiz. As a test of who has really good taste in music (ie, really similar to mine) the first one to correctly identify the following lyrical quote wins a prize (I'm not sure what the prize is yet but I'm sure it will be shitty so don't try too hard). Anyway,...

On Belonging:
Human nature is a funny thing. As much as we are all different, there are certain basic ways in which most of us are the same. One example is the extreme need we all have for belonging to some kinda group. This Web site was founded and has thrived by appealing to people who, by and large, have been outside the norm...

After sitting in horrendous traffic yesterday, I think I have now formulated my position on war protesters...I HATE 'EM!!! How can causing me to sit in a huge traffic jam do anything to end this fucking war. NEWS FLASH: This ship has sailed! The fucking cruise missiles are raining down on the bad guys and the Iraqi army is wandering around with white flags...

linz:
these protestors are doing things the WRONG way. if they want to really make a point why dont they camp out in front of some corporate whores mansion or soemthing unstead of rallying around where small businesses and commuters end up being the real losers. that shit gets on my nerves. do they even know what the hell they are doing?

ps. thanks

Democrat here too. I still blame OUR party for giving King George all this GD power. Let's hope this is quick.

So let's see, we now want control of Afghanistan (really, no one had a problem with that, although, like big George from the first gulf war, we didn't get the head honcho) and now we want to control and "democrocize" Iraq. First off.....where are we getting the $ for this? Uh...right....we dont have it. Secondly, who says the gulf region is into democracy? I am sure the Saudi's and the Iranians LOVE the idea of a free democratic state in their back yard.

Lastly, (thank GOD for the BBC) the rebuilding of Iraq is more ambitions than the Marshall plan and (how odd) will go to American companies with politcal ties to Washington.

And we let this hapen.....sheesh.

Here's some March Madness for ya...

Bought some new CDs over the weekend and here's the very initial report:

"Feast of Wire" by Calexico - Good so far, seems to be a grower. Has gotten over-the-top reviews (including from our own illustrious O) and I haven't heard that kinda godhead yet, but we'll see. I like it when it's on but, as with alot of "roots" music made by indie...

Here's a question for a Friday. How come it seems like the career path for hip hop musicians is to get themselves cast in corny low-budget action movies or brainless sitcoms?

If a rock musician started appearing in the type of utter trash that all these rappers are in, their credibility as musicians would go right down the drain. However, the rappers seem to...

Ali G used to be funny, but I don't think he is any more.

Hey, thanks for all that in my journal, you're absolutely right, I know. There were a few other things at play other than the bad crowd that night, so that added to it and made it feel like a REALLY shit night, when all in all it was only average. I talked it over with my band-mates + they're all right - the crowd were terrible, but we played really really well, so we did our best, you know wink


You're a sweety kiss Climbing to the moon is my most favourite off that album *sigh* so beautiful...

It's funny I've never seen the Eels the way you described them in my journal because ever since Beautiful Freak, they've been pretty popular over here and sold out most gigs. For that very reason I am yet to see them live frown Isn't it strange how a band can be disliked by their own country, but loved by another - just like the Pixies + Radiohead...
