a Stones Trow Podcast turned me on to this song.  I think it’s grand. It really gets going at some point….  Enjoy.

You can have that, go ahead.  Name your band Mouse Wizard Village.  There is a dude on the Detroit Redwings, Justin Abdelkader.  That is a dope last name, not just because its some aggressive sounding hockey name, nah… It’s all world bad ass.  I’m down with the Hawks, so i’m not going to even give props to any wing player beyond saying that is one bad ass name. ABDULKATER!  On the Hawks… I will give props to the sad Blues team that just beat us at home.

These are good peeps.

I really like their tunes.  I suggest peeping it if  your into some chilltime boogie.  Austin TX, I believe.

you might like the beeps.

Don’t fuck with Champaign Urbana on the rock tip.  Please.

Mark Baldwin, J Vance and Matt Filippo are steeleater.  Old school rock fella’s in a new project.  Castor, Love Cup, Tumler, The Mezzanines, and countless other bands have been a part of these guys past music dealios.  Love this, but don’t love the crumbs I’m finding in my keyboard, roomie is like cookie monster.  Oh well…..  Yeah, this is a crappy youtube post, but you really can’t touch this shit…. and the name steeleater, come on.

I spun the 12″ of this last Friday, and it was nice to hear it loud, and with a couple people dancing along.  Yep, I read Star Hits magazine back in 1984, and was a full on pop music kid, complete with red light bulb in my bedroom.  Duran Duran, I wanted to be the black guy in the band.  There was no black guy in Duran Duran, but that was kinda the point.  And though I loved the pop vibe back then, none of my friends knew how much I liked Duran Duran, they might have pegged me as someone who thought they might become a major league baseball player, and well… I actually did think that, pretty much until I was about 20. Funny.  So anyway, “two minutes later” ya’ll.

I don’t know how to pronounce this title, but I know that Tristan is good peeps.  I’d see this if I were in the 217.

I”m hoping pretty low.  I have yet to bring the amp in from the back porch, but the pedal to fuzz things up will be attatched, and I hope to go low.  I just bought my first instrument since buying a 12″ head conga before going away to college in 92.  Crazy shit.  I have bought several turntables, lots of mixers, tons of replacement styli, several samplers (all of the same type), and one very useful multi effects pedal.  Those have brought me joy, and when I get a hold of another particular sample, I’ll go back into the world of making beats and such, at least I”m feeling that push rise.  But until then, I”m gonna rock this bass.  CL find, just 50 cheaper than than buying it  new.  The young woman that I got it from gave me the soft case, a stand, and the strap it came with, surely all from a package deal for her.  She was prompt and happy to be rid of the bass that she bought and had never really played it. She told me it had been played about 6 times.  I thought that was pretty funny, to tell someone that something was only used 6 times.  It was beyond the deal having been already done, so there was no angle of making the bass look better or newer than it was.  She said it was too big for her, and it was.  Win Win, she and I both have a good craigslist exchange.  I came home just now and didn’t turn on the tv, I picked up the bass, turned off the bright kitchen light, and played for a bit.  This is going to be a nice relationship.  I asked Amy if she had given the bass a name, she hadn’t.  She said for me to give it a good name, I’m not sure if I can yet, or if I will.  I know I will enjoy the meditation of it, the tones, and when the time is right in my building of only one downstairs neighbor, sounds of big low fuzzy swirls.  So yeah, if you think you might want to lean lovingly over an instrument, to let yourself rest your soul for a bit, do it.  Get that device, that sketchbook, heavy bag, that yoga mat.  Were at 2010.

I like his tones, especially in Little Girl In Bloom, and Song for While I”m Away.  I have surely mentioned this in some funky rant before, I can do that.

I have been saying Dunkin on that Raindeer all day because of this……  Dope beat, dope lyrics, KRS One, Lupe, Chuck Inglish on the beat.  Happy Holidays, and fuck Nike Yo!

I watched this show on the History Channel called The Beatles On Record.  It was really good, lots of studio film and sound.  Really put me in really deep Beatles mood.  Still feeling it.  There was this part where John is talking about the song Hey Bulldog, and he is talking about the dog noises that Paul was making on vocal track, and they played it, “bark bark,  raawrl”, my dog Poppy was very responsive.  This is only funny because he usually is unconcerned with dog barks on Tv.  Paul was that good.
