Let’s just get to the music, maybe watch some basketball, go see The Hunger Games, get laid …. just do something other than bitch about whether Obama is the worst President ever or the worst President that there will ever be.
By the way, Cults the other night were stunning. They know what they want to do and how they want to sound and they do it very well. Madeline Follin nails her sixties girl group vocals perfectly and musically there were some very nice My Bloody Valentine-esque flourishes throughout. Also, too, nice cover of Leonard Cohen’s Everybody Knows.
Tour schedule here.
Okay, then…
Boa Constrictor – The Magnetic Fields
Shadows – Sunny Day Real Estate
Hare Krishna – Thievery Corporation
Bros – Panda Bear
Deeper Down – Wilco
Rose Parade – Sexton Blake (Elliott Smith cover)
Cherry Twist – The Crystal Method

Obummer ruined my NCAA bracket.
Primary him!
p.s. Thanks T for putting up with the shit!
That Raphael Saadiq, he pretty cool. Thanks for the new tunes.
I heard Obama takes his brackets with bechamel. And he put TBogg’s iPod on a terrorist watch list.
Great tunes TBogg. I used to party pretty hard to Crystal Method.
Glad I'm a Giants fan and not a Jets fan this week.

Call me painfully clueless, but I had never heard of Raphael Saadiq before — now I want to go out and buy all his stuff… Thx for making the intro, tbogg, that’s why I like it ’round here. (Yeah, dat ass, too).
Yeah, me neither. Reminds me of Smokey, gotta find out when he’s performing in my neck of the woods.
I’ve seen Cults a couple times, and thought their live show was OK. Glad to hear they sounded really good, assuming that you’re not showing any homer San Diego bias. Seeing them next month at a larger venue. I hope they’ve got some new stuff beyond the Cohen cover, which of course was already covered by Concrete Blonde.

And for a bonus, a “W” in honor of my 15 and half year old dog Whitman, who might not have many more chances for a dedication:

Just had to get that out of my system. Carry on.
I took a bus home for Spring Break today. The roof of the bus fucking leaked, and while I was waiting for my luggage I got pickpocketed out of 27 dollars, which is a lot of money from my flat-broke perspective. I needed some Shakira ass and some great tunes, so let’s see what we got:

I like how now I don’t just listen to my music, it actually passes through my body (doing good things, no doubt).
Oh, did a miss a Chock Full’o Stupid thread? So much the better.
AND WHAT THE HELL IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN!!!1!!
Seriously, that last thread almost made me want to start drinking again. And, no, I’m not a recovering alcoholic. I’m already high on Jesus….
Shakira’s ass much needed, after watching my beloved IU Hoosiers go down scratching and clawing against the eeeevil Kentucky Wildcats. Even though I haven’t been able to get a good hate on against Kentucky since that fat fuck Joe B. Hall retired…

Sorry I went back to see what all the hullaballoo was about in the previous thread. The world is overpopulated. Birth control (especially if they ever make a pill for men), solar panels on every roof and an acid trip for every citizen. That is my platform. And Tommy Tutone stole Jenny (867-5309) from the Partridge Family. Echo Valley 2- 6809, haters! I’m going to bleed a little more money from the state of Cali and then I’m off to South America, where I can watch Rome burn between soccer games and histrionic soap operas.
Remember the R&B group Tony! Toni! Tone! from the late 80′s- 90′s? He was the lead singer.
It’s all goodie in the hoodie.
I think my joke fell a little flat.
o well, moving on…

Yeah, I was gonna say I was watching basketball…but it ended badly. Hell of a good game, though..(sniff).
Did you see how Obama bought/threatened the refs and ruined the game? Me neither, but that’s because he’s so sneaky!
Oh good god, Spaghetti, that sucks. It would also make a real fine song. The first thing that comes to mind is Lucinda Williams (“I took a bus/to Baton Rouge….”), but of course we can’t just plug in “home for spring break today”. But it’s got great possibilities, and it might could make you 27 million dollars, which would take the sting out of the lost $27 a little.
Yay, Shakira’s bum.
