Haha.

I think there are a lot of Elliott Smith fans here, and I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere in the album review anyway, so I thought I would share this tidbit about the song "King's Crossing":

Just after he sings the lyric - "Give me one good reason not to do it" you can faintly hear his girlfriend and sister whisper - "Because we love you."

So if you like listening to that song but never noticed that, give it another try and maybe you'll feel a renewed sense of sorrow :(

I'm off to play a benefit show. Later, kids. Kill whitey.

That would be an amazing show... quite lucky.

Did Xiu Xiu play mostly La Foret like he did at Intonation?

[Zappa]

Right down there is a video of me playing a Native American flute (made of PVC) into a Radioshak wacky toy microphone (called a Sing'n'Jam). It's pretty sweet.

I'm pretty sure I'm allowed to do this, cause the RIAA can't bust MX for allowing personal files to be shared, far as I know.

Do you have to hxxp it no matter what?

Rats. Use your imagination; I'm not uploading that again.

[6Stringer]

I went to a school lock-in last night and didn't get any sleep at all. I just woke up a while ago at about 5:30 PM. It was actually fun. We played medical tape dodgeball, watched Sin City and stole food from other people. I couldn't sleep so I stayed up and played Madden '06 with my friend. Good times, good times.

EDIT: I'm now about to go see the Exorcism of Emily Rose, has anyone else seen it? Is it worth watching?

[ZEROthirtythree]

Xiu Xiu was phenomenal.

Xui Xui is bad.

[italic zero]

I like La Foret a lot.

[el doctor]

I can't picture myself at a Xiu Xiu show. Jamie Stewart scares me.

[biografiend]

I went to Charleston last night to go see So Many Dynamos play in this one college kid's basement, and then stayed at our friends apartment there. It was insanely good; but some dumbass college whores were grinding/being drunken sluts everywhere, it was seriously at least 100 degrees with 50 people dancing in a smallass basement and I was the most sweatiest I had ever been, but it was amazing.

I was also drug into a moshpit somehow, bit some drunk guy because he shoved his elbow in my face, and rescued by a lovely boy.

That's what it was like at the ska show. It was like a moshpit, but people were moshing/skanking at the same time. Amazingly fun.

Sorry to hear about the drunken sluts.

[6Stringer]

I just watched the Exorcism of Emily Rose and... whatever you do, do not go see it. It sucked big, black, hairy nuts. Acting was stale and not good. It was just like the Exorcist except with more Hollywood magic put into it.

My week/day: My journalism class started with 30 kids last Wednesday, and now it's down to about 10. Since my school somehow ended up on austerity budget, we have no newspaper or accompanying club (just a quarterly newsletter now), paired with an unenthusiastic journalism class and new teacher. Oh well.

On the plus side, we get free copies of the New York Times everyday to use as textbooks in a sense, so I just end up reading the paper all class. Interesting review of Cripple Crow today.

[BillCosby]

My AP Lit class has 15 people in it. And about four are switching out to a different period. And then on the other hand, in my precalculus class there's about forty something students crammed into a tiny portable.

We're getting married, Neko Case oh I love that Female.

[JonM]

It's too "Norwegian Wood," Jon.
It must have been subconscious, because someone around here was talking about that song recently and I just overheard it and acknowledged that it was a good song. I haven't listened to it in a while, though. I suppose it's more than a coincidence, though. This open tuning, sitar-sounding stuff I do and have done for a long time is very much George Harrison-inspired.

I'm glad you liked it, Snidg. I wasn't actually going for a two-guitar sound; I just wrote the thing on one and beefed it up with another. If/when I do more with this idea, there will be much more going on.

[ZEROthirtythree]

a) violins and clarinets
b) are gay

How cool are the last two tracks on Amnesiac.

Probably my two favorite RH songs.

Whos down for some community thread spin the bottle?

Probably my two favorite RH songs.I like the fact that they seem to come out of nowhere. You'd expect the album to come to a lulling close, but it really ends in good, creative fashion.

So you're starring in a Minstrel show eh? Kind of offensive.

[JonM]

I didn't get into a cappella. So, I'm bummed, but part of me is thinking "why do you want to be in a cappella? You play an instrument!" And in an ironic twist of fate, I wrote an instrumental today. How bizarre.

[Zmev]

Nothing wrong with being in a capella, I might be joining a vocal choir on Wednesday, my friend is giving me the music this weeked.

I guess there's no point in this just sitting, stagnant and unmixed, on my computer. This is the demo of the second song I did with my friend Mike. There are no vocals, except for the talking in the introduction, and we're really happy with what we've got so far, even in its incomplete state. I promise you'll like this. I'm really, really proud of it, and it's not acoustic or folky.

Nice. The only thing I don't really like is the tone of your bass, but it suits the song so no problem. It does seem like a vocal sort of song though.

I've heard about 70% of those.

Maybe they copied that list from somewhere else and put it on their profile. I mean think about it, couldn't I have done that with what I've copied and pasted right there? I could, and you would be powerless to stop me.

How could you have heard of Dan the Automator and not Prince Paul? Aren't they both in Handsome Boy Modeling School?

Anyway, I also see Fly Pan Am on there, which is funny because someone was complaining that they were the worst band on earth.

PS: Bartender's going to kill you if he finds out you haven't heard of The Beta Band.

(like, lots lots more)

[br3ad_man]

Are you saying heard or heard of? I have had the opportunity to hear 93% of those bands, but I have not actually heard songs by all of them.

And I haven't heard Handsome Boy Modeling School.

[ATM]

It makes me happy to see Broadcast on there.

[Luxor]

I like how they write this completely massive list, containing probably 40 different genres or subgenres... Then at the end they put "etc."

I just got a mail from "The Mars Volta <fanclub@umrg.myreg.net>":

News
Tuesday, November 8th, the mars volta will release scabdates.

scabdates will feature renditions of Volta tracks recorded live over the course of 2003-2005 touring in support of this year's Frances The Mute and 2003's De-Loused In The Comatorium, drawn out to their epic, endurance-defying lengths, making for a 74-minute sampling of the Mars Volta live experience, with packaging featuring the photography of longtime Volta collaborator Danielle Van Ark. Scabdates was assembled, produced and mixed by Omar A Rodriguez-Lopez. All music by Omar A Rodriguez-Lopez, all lyrics by Cedric Bixler Zavala, and performed by The Mars Volta. The track listing for scabdates is as follows:


1. abrasions mount the timpani
2. take the veil cerpin taxt
3. a) gust of mutts
4. b) and ghosted pouts
5. caviglia
6. concertina
7. haruspex
8. cicatriz
9. a) pt I
10.b) pt II
11. c) pt III
12. d) pt IV

The smell of fake is overwhelming. Anyone else got it? I don't get what's up with it. Is someone trying to steal my money?

I've never heard of most of those songs. I guess you could always check out comatorium.com or the band's official website to see if any of this is true. Or just wait until November 8th!

That show is here in Vancouver tomorrow. I considered going, but I kinda procrastinated on buying tickets for too long :-\

[Kayetan]

Yeah, but my dad was opposed to me going though. So yeah, maybe...

[6Stringer]

I came home from a football game and my dad asked me how to grow shrooms. It was some akward conversation.

I've been really tired out from wrestling this whole week and I've been swamped with homework. Thank God it's the weekend finally.

Ugh :rolleyes: I can't believe that tour doesn't come anywhere near me. I like both of those bands, and I'm probably one of the few people who does!

Eh, they'll probably just ruin it anyway. TMV's songs supposedly go on too long, even for jams, and SOAD supposedly has bad sound live. But what if those people are lying?

[Jacaranda]

Oh, I heard SOAD is good live but I dunno.
About TMV I heard Cedric is always trying to do something to show off onstage and doesn't sing half the time.

[Zmev]

Here is an interesting piece on SOAD. (http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=3202)

Unless you've been to every music festival that was held this year, and gave an objective review of all of them (with a musical taste that encompasses every band present at these concerts), then you're in no position to try and skew the votes in your favor.
