A song I found whilst wandering around the internet, eating locusts and honey and searching for interesting reviews. I've only listened to it once, but it seems alright, so there it is for anyone interested. Reviews of the band it's by make frequent comparisons to Neutral Milk Hotel and Devandra Banhart, if that helps.

[Interstate]

so I bought two cds today (haven't bought any in ages)

got Eels - Shootenanny & REM - Automatic For The People

oh and I got this weird mystery cd bundle (5 cds that are wrapped up so you can't see what they are) for £2....and I know none of the artists :upset:

So - has anyone heard of:

Uma Lane
Lukestar
Emma Mcglynn
Larmousse
Haloblack

yeah I kinda wish I hadn't bought that stupid bundle now....but it looked so inviting :upset:

[Interstate]

OK so I listened to that Larmousse album its pretty good, post rock but kind of leaning towards more ambience. Now listening to the Emma Mcglynn album, about halfway through and it seems pretty good on first listen, sort of singer/songwriter standard acoustic guitar with the odd drum type songs, I'm starting to think that mystery cd bundle wasn't such a bad idea after all.

[Bartender]

For £2 I don't think it could have been a bad idea. Even if each CD just has one reasonably good song on it, you've not exactly been ripped off.

I've definitely heard of Haloblack, but I don't remember anything about them, sorry.

Yeah thats what I thought. Lukestar is a rock band from Norway (or so it seems, according to google). Don't know about Uma Lane (I think that might be the name of the album, the artist I think is called 'Nice Girls' - who I still haven't heard of but oh well).

Nah, there's this huge Ban-O-Machine that uses steam power to operate the 'Banning Pistons' which have one letter of the alphabet on the bottom of them that stamp out everyone’s name as the selected pistons move up and down. Then the 'Banning Card' that your name was stamped out on by the BPs is placed into a Mother CPU (which takes up about seven rooms). Your information is then recorded on some magnetic tape which is eventually processed slowly by Chief Engineer Sir Edmund Campbell.

If whey protein is a suppliment, you are correct.

Heres how to do it: Take whey protein before you workout, work on one part of your body (upper or lower) for an hour a day, and that is your workout. You can go upper, lower, rest, upper, lower for weekdays if you wish, thats what i do. I dont know what to say about how many calories you should take in per day because I dont know how much you weigh or what your weight goals are.

So basically: its very importaunt to take Whey Protein, that stuff gives you amino acids that..well...not sure how it does it but dammit, it makes you lose weight. Also you might wanna stick to a 2000 or lower calorie diet, I try to do that but I dont really count, I should though. = /

Oh, and I dont run at all, but you might want to.

How often do you work out? Everyday? I don't really plan on losing that much weight since I'm doing the One Set to Failure routine for my upper body right now and 20 minutes on bike. I heard supplements are quite pricey, and can have the same negative effects as anabolic steroids if you take in a lot.

I heard supplements are quite pricey, and can have the same negative effects as anabolic steroids if you take in a lot.

I work out 4 days a week and have been doing so for the past 3 weeks. Whey protein can be purchased at a vitamin shop or maybe Costco. It wasnt too pricey (only $20) and it comes in a huge tub. Just put in two scoops (if you weigh over 150 lbs) and milk (might wanna add some sugar) and blend. You'll want to take this before you workout as it gives you energy and calories to burn during the workout.

I'm not familar with the One Set of Failure routine but hers what I do.

3x15 incline bench press
3x15 regular bench press
3x15 decline bench press
3x15 curls
3x15 u rows
60 sit ups
3x15 db flys

And that's an upperbody day, I guess thats what you're training so no need to explain lower body, but if you need me to just ask.

Ouch. In other good news, I found out last night that Sigur Ros and NIN will be coming to Australia which are two of the bands I want to see live most. I doubt NIN will be 18+ and I'm praying that Sigur Ros won't be. If it is I might just have to be naughty and try to get in anyway.
I made a thread about Sigur Ros. It will probably be 18+ since The Tivoli has always been 18+ when I've been there.

EDIT: I see you found it.

[Happymeal]

I'm not familar with the One Set of Failure routine but hers what I do.

3x15 incline bench press
3x15 regular bench press
3x15 decline bench press
3x15 curls
3x15 u rows
60 sit ups
3x15 db flys

And that's an upperbody day, I guess thats what you're training so no need to explain lower body, but if you need me to just ask.

That's a good routine to trim down to, it looks intense actually! One Set to Failure is basically doing as many reps as you can until you can't lift anymore(only applies to your upper body workout). It's great for building up. I do a full body workout everytime so I guess the results aren't very immediate.

What you might wanna do is alternate days with parts of your body (upper /lower). If you can try to dedicate one day (1 hour about, depends if you take breaks inbetween) to your upper body and 1 day to lower body (if you want to). The thing is, also, to let yourt muscles rest, which is why I only have 2 upper days a week as well as 2 lower days. Having monday and thursday be your upper days would be good and I guess sometime inbetween you can do cardio/biking.

EDIT: I see you found it.

hmm yeah. I looked on their site and there were a few gigs and only one was 18+. But all the ones I've ever wanted to go to have been 18+ there, so I'm not getting my hopes up.

In some ways. "Brown Shoes Don't Make It" is possibly the greatest Mothers of Invention era Zappa tune.

[Bartender]

Tina Weymouth.

She didn't make it through the nominations.

The DVDs finally came yesterday, so I can make Pete And Pete avatars to my heart's content.

:eek:

Pete & Pete has been released on dvd? Oh god, I loved that programme.

I used to watch that show, as well.

I'm supposed to go today.. for free. :cool:

[Tomahawk]

I have actually. I don't like any of the other movies, never been a fan. But I got dragged to the latest one last night, and I thought it was fantastic. Just so dark and tragic and mostly steers clear of cutesy crap.

The dialogue is godawful clunky horrible cheesy bad. But you expect that.

Try not to laugh when Darth Vader gets told that Padme is dead and in a not-clichéd-at-all fashion looks to the sky and shouts "NOOOOO!!"

That's very in-depth.

[Jebediah]

Overall I thought the movie was brilliant.

[YDload]

I hear that Iggy Pop and the Stooges are reuniting, except for the bass player who is going to be Mike Watt instead. That would be a cool show.

[Iai]

They reunited ages ago. :confused:

[YDload]

They reunited ages ago. :confused:

With Mike Watt? Well the next (first?) show is May 27th so I thought it was pretty recent.

Unless that webpage needs to be updated. :(

EDIT: Nope, it's this year, but only in Europe :upset:

But at least you Brits can see them at the Reading/Leeds festivals.

[Iai]

Yup. :cool:

[Bartender]

I wonder who I saw a few years ago. All I know is that Iggy was there.

[The NPC]

My uncle was spat on by Iggy Pop during a 1970 concert.

Exactly. No one goes to Star Wars for brilliant dialogue.

Apart from some stupid parts, Ep 3 was amazing.

My cousin saw Elliott Smith play on a subway.

[Electrocution]

My cousin saw Elliott Smith play on a subway.
I thought he saw him on the subway, and then saw him play live later.

Anyway, my sister got me Pete & Pete on DVD for my birthday. I've watched three episodes so far. I had completely forgotten about little Pete's entourage in the Nightcrawler episode. Brings back memories.

[Zappa]

As far as I'm concerned, the show more than brings back memories. I think I'm enjoying it on a whole other level today.

[Electrocution]

Elaborate?

[Zappa]

I just seriously love the show as I've been watching the episodes over. It's the kind of thing that I would definitely watch if it were a new show on today. I don't get just a nostalgia kick out of it, is what I'm saying.

[Electrocution]

It seems very dated to me. I still enjoy the humor, and I would probably watch such a show would it air nowadays, but I get a big "nostalgia kick," as you put it.

Well this was in the 70s so I'm guessing she was just a teenager then.

Now she works in the carbide business :)

Just a note for anyone who has voted in the Top 100 MXers competition; all old ballots are invalid. You have to resubmit your votes, on a different site.

I hope you all (especially Zappa) take the time to re-vote.

I recently finished reading "The Curse of Lono" by Hunter S. Thompson. It's about his adventures in Hawaii, although there are less drugs and more "going fishing and beating marlins with Samoan war clubs." Also there are illustrations by some guy named Ralph Steadman. I don't know if he worked with Pink Floyd, but it's very similar in style to the album art for The Wall.

[Zappa]

A friend of mine is a Hunter S. Thompson fan, as well as a visual artist. She's very, very into Steadman's work.

[YDload]

Okay I guess he didn't work on The Wall. I remembered seeing his drawings somewhere else but it turned out to be the cover of the Fear and Loathing DVD :-/

But I really like his style. It's a mix of the Romanticism of JMW Turner and the Expressionism of Munch et al.

(pretentiousness)

[biografiend]

I have Fear and Loathing (the book). His work on the illustrations are awesome.

Today I babysat for a kid with "special needs". I really hope I get paid lots of ca$h at the end on the week.
