Pretty, Pretty Such A Pretty Girl


The Rolling Stones are a lot better than I always thought they were. I used to think they were just a version of the Beatles that wasn't as good as the Beatles, but they're more than that. They basically invented punk music ten years before it was invented (although arguably punk music was invented ten years earlier with early rock and roll, or maybe even by Hank Williams, who knows? genres are kind of a silly thing anyway). Anyway, the Rolling Stones, in my limited experience have played a lot of very good and very different types of music. Beast Of Burden is a really good song. You should like it.

Is Lil Wayne any good? Lollipop is awful, but I'm beginning to think that might be the negative equivalent of a fluke. So is he actually good? Just Curious.

Also, Flight of the Conchords is really good, so watch it.

Also buy records like Some Girls by The Rolling Stones.

Strawberry Wine


I know of at least three songs with this title: one by Deana Carter which I've never heard, one by The Band on Stage Fright which is pretty good, and one by Ryan Adams on 29 which is one of the best songs I've ever heard.
Anyway, it makes me want to "get lost on that Strawberry Wine." But I can't find it anywhere. There are some places online, but you either pay more for shipping than for a bottle or you have to buy 12 bottles. Alas, I will have to live through the song for now, but oh what a song.
Here's a live video of it:

Enjoy please, if you don't you hate music.

Nike Of Samothrace


Best statue ever. Don't you sometimes wish you lived in a time where they made stuff like this?
Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't - there was less Star Wars and less Xbox, but more fancy public art that people actually appreciated and served some sort of purpose.

Pretend to be a 3rd century BC Greek to see how it feels,

Did You Buy Chinese Democracy Yet?


I didn't. I've been hearing how disappointing this album was since I heard that it was even being made. Not that GNR was ever that great anyway.

Also, Nickelback has a new album, so music is officially dead. It has a song called "S.E.X." on it.
Here are the lyrics reprinted for education purposes, thus making it fair use and not copyright infringement.

(Verse 1)
"No" is a dirty word ,
Never gonna say it first,
"No" is just a thought that never crosses my mind.
Maybe in the parking lot,
Better bring your friend along,
Better all together than just one at a time.

(Chorus)
S is for the simple need.
E is for the ecstasy.
X is just to mark the spot,
Because that's the one you really want.
(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
'Cuz the answer's yes, oh the answers (Yes)
Not just a suggestion, if you ask the question,
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah!

(Verse 2)
I'm loving what you wanna wear,
I wonder what's up under there?
Wonder if I'll ever have it under my tongue?
I love to try to set you free,
I love you all over me.
Love to hear the sound you make the second you're done.

(Chorus)
S is for the simple need,
E is for the ecstasy,
X is just to mark the spot,
Because that's the one you really want.
(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
'Cuz the answer's yes, oh the answers (Yes).
Not just a suggestion, if you ask the question,
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah! (YES)
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah.
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah.
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah.
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah.

(Chorus)
S is for the simple need,
E is for the ecstasy,
X is just to mark the spot,
Because that's the one you really waaaant.
(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
'Cuz the answer's yes, oh the answer's (Yes).
Not just a suggestion, if you ask the question,
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah! (YES)
(Yes!) Sex is always the answer, it's never a question,
'Cuz the answer's yes, oh the answer's (Yes).
Not just a suggestion, if you ask the question,
Then it's always yes. Yeeeah! (YES)
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah.
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah.
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah.
Yeeeeeeeah, yeeeah, yeah.

YES!

But onward young scholars. While Nickelback has officially killed music, there are still warriors fighting that noble but futile fight to resurrect music from its ashes.

People like Ryan Adams with his new album with his band The Cardinals called Cardinology. My favorite song on it is "Cobwebs." What's yours?













So there is that.

Victim Of A Cougar Attack


I was also the victim of a vicious cougar attack.

Back when I fought in the Civil War, a fierce large cat aka a cougar aka a middle aged female sexual predator attacked me in a fit of lustful sensual rage.

Fortunately the encounter was captured eloquently on an out of print CD-Rom by the noble Miss Treva Harte.

I have not read it, but I assume it depicts my situation quite accurately. If it does not, then I will write a scathing letter to the publisher, but first someone has to read it to me because I am illiterate.

Hope everyone's having a good time.

Also, buy records.

Holy Fuck


Apparently I died in another universe (aka Ireland). I wonder what I did to be able to survive in this universe. I hope I can keep it up, but old as I am my time must be soon.

Also, buy records like Day & Age by The Killers. Sure it's 80stastic, but it's really amazing. Best songs are "Goodnight, Travel Well," "I Can't Stay," "The World That We Live In," and "This Is Your Life."

Ryan Adams Is So Good



My roommate Drew and I like to talk about how good music from the 60s was and wonder why these days Nickleback is one of the highest selling bands. Well, good music is still being made. Ryan Adams is still making good music, and a lot of it. Including his work with the band Whiskeytown before he went solo, Ryan Adams has released 12 albums, 2 eps, probably 4 or 5 more albums worth of b-sides, and also has countless other unreleased albums and songs. Quite a prolific guy, and most of it is pretty amazing. Most people have heard "When The Stars Go Blue" and thus have some idea of how good he is, but he has so much great material to listen to, that you basically hate music if you don't own all his records. So, but some Ryan Adams records.
*Edit: Note - I just realized that my favorite song by him "Oh My God, Whatever, Etc." is told from the perspective of a prostitute. Anyway, it's a really beautiful song. So listen to it.

Also, buy other records like 19 by Adele. She makes soul music in a similar vein to that of Amy Winehouse. I don't think this record is quite as amazing as Back To Black, but it's still really good. Hopefully Adele won't do tons of drugs and get emphysema. "Right As Rain" is my favorite.

IMHO, People Should Spend More Time Enjoying Things, And Less Time Not Enjoying Them

If anyone is ever talking about an action movie, and they start a sentence with the phrase "I know they were trying to go for..." please punch them in the face until they are dead. All art is made to be enjoyed by people. Sometimes art is really deep or really spiritual or really meaningful... and that can be enjoyable because we recognize something of ourself or we recognize some flaw of the human condition or whatever. Anyway, the point is that however deep something is, it's still meant to be enjoyed. On the other hand, some art is just enjoyable because it's enjoyable and fun and action-packed. The point is, that there is no reason to try to appreciate art by trying to find something deep in it or over-analyzing something. If something needs to be heavily analyzed to be enjoyed, then fine, but not everything needs that. If you think that you can only appreciate something by trying to find some meaning in it, then you are as huge a douche as Sigmund Freud trying to find sex and incest in every work of art ever made. People wonder why I like terrible movies like The Howling 2 or Starcrash, it's because they're enjoyable to watch. In this case it's their failure that's enjoyable. Anyway, the new Indiana Jones movie is good, not because it reveals some great human truth, but because it has a character we love and a lot of action. It's not just with movies though. People like club music because it is fun to dance to and thus enjoyable and people like Robert Johnson because his music presents a unique (sort of) commentary on his historical circumstances or whatever. So enjoy things. There's a reason to enjoy pretty much everything. If you're not enjoying something, there's a good chance you're doing something wrong. Life will be a lot better if you appreciate things for what they are. And if you don't enjoy something, don't complain about it, because guess what? It's not a big deal. Complaining about stuff is really just a waste of your time and more importantly a waste of whoever you're talking to's soul. Enjoy things.

Also, buy records... like Narrow Stairs by Death Cab For Cutie. It's really good, but what else would you expect?

Goodbye, Toby


Apparently (according to Wikipedia) Toby really is leaving for Costa Rica. So, farewell fair Toby... Why are you the way that you are? Honestly, every time I try to do something fun, or exciting, you make it... not that way. I hate... so much about the things that you choose to be. Watch The Office.

I'm Glad They Stopped Trying To Package Rihanna As An "Island" Artist


I've never heard Rihanna's first album, but I'm pretty sure it's very island-themed. Her newest album has hardly any traces of a Caribbean influence. Her second album acts as a bridge in between the two; I assume they were trying to move her out of a niche market and into the mainstream, and I'm so glad they did because one can only listen to so many songs with reggae guitar and drums but with an R&B voice over them. So, anyway, Rihanna's journey has been one of successful innovation not only in marketing strategy, but also artistic innovation, because now her songs are a lot more aesthetically pleasing. So, go Rihanna! Buy her records.


Also, buy other records like Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys. I've heard a lot about how this album is so good, but I never really enjoyed all of The Beach Boys surfing songs. I mean, after a while, they all tend to blend together. I always liked "Good Vibrations" though because it's an incredibly complex piece of music, especially for a pop single. Anyway, Pet Sounds shows off Brian Wilson's amazing production and songwriting skills as well as the trademark Beach Boys harmonies. It's a really good album.

Fancy Atlanta Producer Dallas Austin Brings Concert To Athens


Dallas Austin is one of the biggest producers of urban music in the biggest urban market there is, Atlanta. He has partnered with the UGA Music Business Program to bring a Rap and R&B concert to Athens, Georgia. The concert includes artists from Austin's record label Rowdy such as R&B singer Novel and hip-hop artist Sy Scott. Athens doesn't see too much in the way of urban concerts, so if you're a fan come to the 40 Watt on April 18th at 9:30 to see this concert.

Holy Crap! There Are Star Wars Deleted Scenes!


Most of my friends don't care about Star Wars, because, let's face it, they're pretty dumb. Contrary to their popular belief, Star Wars is actually really awesome (except for the Star Wars Holiday Special, which isn't even bad in a good way like Starcrash, just in a bad way). What's even more awesome, is that I just found a few deleted scenes on YouTube that I though someone might like to know about.

Really short lame scene with Darth Vader:


Romance between Han and Leia in ESB:


Original Jabba The Hutt scene with an Irish guy not CGI:


Luke's original intro, seeing the Star Destroyer fight the Blockade Runner:


AND...
THE TWO BEST SCENES WHICH YOU WONDER WHY THEY WERE LEFT OUT OF THE MOVIE BECAUSE THEY ADD SO MUCH IN PLOT AND CHARACTERIZATION:

Luke goes to Anchorhead (presumably to the Tosche Station to pick up some power converters):


Luke talks to Biggs:


There you have it. Star Wars deleted scenes.

Hope you enjoyed. You should buy Star Wars movies.

Also, buy records like Aquemini by Outkast, which was the first rap record I ever got and still my favorite. I think Outkast is my favorite rap group, because they are album-oriented, not single oriented. They take more artistic risks, resulting in much higher quality material than most rap artists. If you don't like "Da Art Of Storytellin' (Part 1)" or "Chonkyfire" from this album, you're a bad person.

RyanKeyFanGirl's Opinion Of Panic At The Disco's Pretty. Odd.


Sure I'm a dick for making fun of a 12 year old. I'm not. Kids can appreciate good music. I liked the Beatles when I was in 4th grade (and my little sister who's now also in the 4th grade loves the Beatles too, so eat it RyanKeyFanGirl).

What did they do? (Made a great record) ** (Actually... ******)
Pretty Odd should be entitled "1950's Slow Pop" (I think yer off a decade there sweetheart, but that's ok, gold star for effort). This is such a deviation from AFYCSO (Oh, I get it, so a band should always make the same record, I guess that's how the originality you so crave comes about - by doing the same thing over and over again). Their last album had originality to it (some, but it was nothing that hadn't been done before - they just borrowed from a vast array of influences, kind of like they did on this record), and every song was different (really? perhaps, but more different than the songs on this record where there's a Dixieland Jazz song right next to a folk-rock epic? no). They were different in a really good way. But then, this came out. And you would think the boys were born in 1920 (because you can't appreciate music unless you're older than it... wait wait wait weren't cabaret tunes a big influence on their last record, songs that sounded like turn of the 20th century, maybe you would actually think the boys were born in 1860). Sure, they're an odd kind of rock (this makes no sense, but even if they did, they have always made pop music, sure it's unique, but nothing exceptionally genre-breaking), but this is just so odd it doesn't even make modern lyrical sense (neither does this sentence - what exactly is modern lyrical sense?). I mean, who gave them weed? =/ (Yer dumb).

Maybe one day RyanKeyFanGirl will cast aside her Pull-Ups and become a big girl, perhaps around the same time I stop trying to assert my superiority by making fun of helpless, misguided tweens, but for now it seems that her path towards musical enlightenment is a long and treacherous one. Godspeed RyanKeyFanGirl, Godspeed.

Wish RyanKeyFanGirl Godspeed on her journey.

Also, buy records like Pretty. Odd. by Panic At The Disco.

Buy Panic At The Disco's New Record, Seriously


I mean it. This record (Pretty. Odd.) is so good that your life just got worse because you don't have it. I'm not sure about the logistics of that statement, but I know that it's science and it's true. I'm sure that most of Panic's 15 year old fan demographic will not like this album as much as their debut, but it is so much better. The only real criticism you can offer is that it borrows a little bit too much from The Beatles, but I don't know... I consider The Beatles to just be a big influence, one among many. It is clear, however, that The Beatles heavily influenced this record. A criticism that's more likely to be offered by music snobs (like those at Rolling Stone - seriously, hoe much of a moron can you be - he almost says that the only reason he doesn't like it is because it's by Panic At The Disco, while he's saying what a pleasant record it is) is that this record isn't good simply because it's by Panic At The Disco. Critics didn't like their first record because 12 year olds did, and 12 year olds can't like anything artistic. Well, let me tell you something. That record was good. This one, however, is much better. It doesn't have the dance beats of the first record, those were nice, but not a huge loss compared to the wonderful melodies, arrangements, instrumentation, singing, lyrics, etc. in all the songs on this record. It just sounds really great. I love it. Please just buy it, you'll see. It's so ridiculously good, just buy it buy it buy it. I really can't stress that enough. So buy it.

Also, buy other records, but mostly Pretty. Odd. by Panic At The Disco.

Angela Kinsey Is Pregnant. Is Angela Matrin Also Pregnant?

Real life Angela Kinsey is pregnant. It's noticeable. The Office is taping new episodes right now. Will her character fake life Angela Martin also be pregnant? By Dwight Schrute? You decide.

Also, buy records like The Con by Tegan And Sara, everyone's favorite lesbian twins. It's got nice melodies and nice lyrics too.

Holy Crap! Levon Help Can Still Sing!

Levon Helm is old, in fact he'll be 68 this year. He's a year older than Bob Dylan, but he still has his voice apparently. This is made even more impressive by the fact that a few years ago Helm hardly had a voice after going through treatment for throat cancer. I recently bought his Grammy winning album Dirt Farmer, which came out last year. The songs are all really good Americana-ish folk type songs like you'd expect from Levon Helm. Helm is helped by Dylan's old guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Larry Campbell and his daughter Amy, among others. Anyway, the record is really good. Just hope that when you're old you still have a strong singing voice.

Also, buy records like Dirt Farmer by Levon Helm.

Who Knew How Good Third Eye Blind Is?

Sure, we all heard "Semi-Charmed Life," How's It Going To Be," and "Jumper" in middle school and we loved them. Some of us even got the first Third Eye Blind record, but we only listened to those songs didn't we. Even those songs we didn't listen to very carefully, did we? So we forgot about the record until just recently and realized that it's actually really really good. The songs have good lyrics, good melodies, and very intricate production. If you don't believe me, dust off your copy and listen to "Narcolepsy." So this has me wondering if the subsequent records Third Eye Blind has released are as good. They probably are. I'll do some investigation. So listen to your old records, some of them might be pretty good.

Also, buy new records.

Sean Nolan Is A Diva

It's true, especially when his friends ask him to play songs for them. Really though he's just infinitely insecure.Hope yer having a nice day.

Also, buy records, like the new re-releases by Hellogoodbye. They just re-released their self-titled EP and full length debut Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs! with extra tracks and bonus DVDs. The bonus tracks are all demos that have been available online for free for a while, but they provide interesting insight into how Forrest Kline crafts his powerpop sweetness. Most of the demos are very rough and mostly just midi, but they're still worth listening to. The EP comes with the previously released OMG HGB DVD ROTFL, which has music videos, 2 live shows, and other stuff. The ZAVD comes with a previously unreleased show on DVD from 2007. Anyway, one of the best things about the re-releases is the artwork.

Bootlegging Is Good For The Music Industry

*Note that when I am referring to bootleg recordings, I am referring only to material that is not officially released: live shows and studio sessions that are not available commercially*

A short history of bootlegging, off the top of my head and quite probably inaccurate: Pictured above is "Great White Wonder" by everybody's (read: my) favorite artist Bob Dylan, the record that really started the bootlegging industry back in July of 1969. It is a collection of Bob Dylan performances from before the release of his first record as well as some songs from The Basement Tapes sessions with The Band. Until the CD came around, bootlegging had to be a rather involved process, a second whole industry, because it required equipment to produce and package actual vinyl records. Even when CDs first came out, the process was intensive because CD burners were not readily available. So for a long time, bootlegging had to be this whole other recording industry. With the spread of CD reproduction technology, digital recording equipment, digital music files, and high speed internet, bootlegs became much easier to record, distribute, and obtain. This also made it more noticeable, and recently, along with the push to stop file sharing, there has been an increase in efforts by some to combat bootlegging as well.

Now I can sort of see how an artist might at first without thinking at all be scared by bootlegging. They might think it will prevent people from buying their legit recordings, or more likely from paying to see their shows. This, however, is a very stupid point of view. Most people in the music industry will tell you that, the way things are going, even legitimate music releases are becoming more and more a promotional tool, not an income generator. The music drives people to see shows, buy merchandise, etc. So, if this is true, then bootlegs almost certainly will do the same thing: promote an artist. The type of people who will go to the trouble of obtaining a bootleg are the type of people who already own all of an artist's material and see them at shows. And even if they're not, will stopping them from getting bootlegs make them more likely to spend money on an artist or will it make them pissed off to such a degree that they won't buy anything an artist puts out because they view them as greedy and heavy-handed. If anything, bootlegs will drive people to go to more live shows, because they will know what to expect. There is something about a live show that can't be captured on tape. If a person has reason to think the show will be good (i.e. they've already heard sort of what it will be like), they'll be more willing to shell out money to see an artist, so they can experience that first hand. The only reason people wouldn't go to shows is because they're way too fucking expensive, and so is merchandise. Maybe if they allowed people to bootleg shows, more people would come to the show, especially if they charged less, and more people would buy more merchandise, especially if they charged less. Anyway, trying to prevent people from hearing what they want is just going to alienate them and make them not like you. Bootlegging is a powerful promotional tool and a vital part of a dying rock and roll industry. One alternate view is to charge people for bootlegs by selling them on a website or iTunes, but that's almost the same as preventing them from getting what they want, because a lot of fans want to hear anything they can. If they have to pay for all of it, they won't be able to afford what they want, and thus they will be restricted and feel alienated. I don't think legitimate releases should be free because there's a lot that goes in to making a release, and the only way to try to recoup all that money is by selling that release. There's also a lot that goes in to putting on a concert, but that money is recouped by selling tickets and merchandise, so it's not hurt by the fact that someone may be recording it to distribute it later. If you're producing something that's worth enough to people, they'll buy it. So, to all artists, embrace bootlegging, it's here to help promote your work and vastly increase the mythology surrounding you (concerning mythology of artists, I wrote a thesis about it, it's very real and things like bootlegs are very important to it). If you want to hear bootlegs, you should be able to. You're not doing it because you're trying to hurt the artist: you're doing it because you like the artist and are thus supporting them. But anyway, go to shows and buy merchandise to support your favorite artists so they don't get curmdgeonly and try to prevent you from getting what you want.

Also, buy records.
