You're 110% cooler now.
Does it matter that the extent of my experience with the music of Mr. Beefheart is that I've listened to Safe as Milk once?

It matters. Listen to Trout Mask Replica

Is there nowhere i can ask for obscure YSIs anymore?

It's a cruel world where a man can't have a copy of "Mogwai fear Satan"

[EightMilesHigh]

I went all art fag today and went downtown to a Picasso exhibit. It was fun wandering around pretending I understood the imagery.

Also, I was at a music store, and they had a rule that no-one under eighteen could buy a G.G. Allin CD.

And and and I heard Fairytale Of New York coming home.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.

Despite this, why would anyone want a G.G. Allin CD?

[EightMilesHigh]

That's what I thought.

But still, you'd assume the average fifteen year old has heard the words ***, rape, and **** before.

[Sam]

Yea. A day at school is a million times worse then any amount of G.G. Allin CDs.

I got 3 dvds and a best of David Bowie compilation for $20 at the pawn shop today. It originally cost more but I got it cheap because I'm a regular :cool:. One of the dvds was that Scratch movie that Zappa likes, so I'm looking forward to seeing that.

[Zappa]

Scratch was sweet.

And what a great website it was...

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Yeah.
Although, rapidshare sucks. Since it always says I'm downloading things when I'm not.

[Daniel!]

Recently rapidshare has been working much better than usual. It used to be really annoying, but now its pretty much fine.

I share a birthday with Thelonius Monk.


I share a brithday with Rick Wright of Pink Floyd.

Claude Debussy, John Lee Hooker, Vernon Reid, GZA, and Layne Staley. I only wanted to list the ones I liked, but I listed Layne Staley because I thought it would impress some people here, even though I hate Alice In Chains.

I kicked all of my exams' poon. Including Calculus. yay.

I was asked to play saxaphone in a jam session sometime next week. It should be interesting. I've never jammed with saxaphone before and I have no idea how my improv skillz will turn out :/

[EightMilesHigh]

I was in an A & B sound t'other day and saw Fun House for about $7. A few places next to it was the "deluxe edition" for $24 :eek: Amazing how you can severely jack up the price for a few special features, eh?

What? Fun House was perfect without the remastering. Wow, I'm getting closer to graduation, closer...

No way, the fuzz is what makes the album and I know you failed computer class.

And I got an A in computer class.

I recorded a song on just guitar tonight.

It's odd, beacuse I don't know how to play the guitar.

I don't know if I like it yet. But I'm sure I will tomorrow.

That's how it always goes.

[Dave de Sylvia]

For some reason listening to a guitar recording by someone who doesn't know how to play sounds more attractive than someone who does.

[Daniel!]

That's good. I like the tone of all the instruments. It didn't sound like all guitar, though.

[Zappa]

That's good. I like the tone of all the instruments. It didn't sound like all guitar, though.

Ah, but it is.

Squier Stratocaster.

Reverb effects by CoolEdit Pro.

[Zappa]

For some reason listening to a guitar recording by someone who doesn't know how to play sounds more attractive than someone who does.

Perhaps because it comes with a "No Wanking" guarantee.

[Daniel!]

Ah, but it is.

It sounded much nicer than the average guitar then.

[Zappa]

It sounded much nicer than the average guitar then.

Those reverb effects help a lot. But yeah, thanks a lot.

I just relized that when I try to describe why I like music I look an idiot who is totally ignorant. Which is partially because I am an idiot who is totally ignorant. Cool.

Hah, something like that.

Glad you like it.

[EightMilesHigh]

w00t, grades are back from Fall semester. I still have a 3.6 gpa. :D

I got straight C's. My parents keep telling me that they're really proud of me, but meh, that's kinda their job.

Damn you. Physics was my lowest grade. Bah!

[EightMilesHigh]

I hate the feeling of being mad at someone.

[Anxious]

My teachers haven't posted my semester grades online yet, bastards.

[JonM]

I only have one grade posted so far, but it's an A. It's in my art class.

[Radiobass81]

All A's.

Math was weird. I had a 95% average before the final test (all other grades were already added in). After the final, in which I got a 100%, my average dropped to 90%. Bleh. I didn't try to argue, though.

[Wanker]

You should've argued; that sounds pretty stupid to me.

I got: A, A-, A-, B+, B for my grades this semester. I can't really complain about the b and B+ though because I could've put more effort into those classes--they just bored the hell out of me.

[br3ad_man]

I saw The Red Paintings with my uncle last night. It was fun.

Tapey, if you ever read this...I saw Ric's last night and if you guys play there any time soon, I'll just come and stand outside, it's easy enough to see from outside the door.

[br3ad_man]

Zappa, that guitar song is my favourite thing you've done so far. It's great.

[Zmev]

I got 2 A's, a B, a C, and a D.

B+, D, F, B, C

And that doesn't include the class that I dropped.

[Zappa]

Why have all your semesters ended already? Mine doesn't quit till a few weeks after break.

I'll be doing pretty well.

The first quarter I got all As and A- with three AP classes. This quarter I've slipped a bit, getting now a B in AP English. Still, I should expect mostly As for the semester.

[YDload]

I'm in college, we just have two semesters separated by a three week-long Christmas break.

[Happymeal]

I need at least an 85 average this semester so I can go to the school I want to go to next year. So far I'm getting around 81-83, and the next semester starts on February.

and my speakers are busted for Christmas. great

[biografiend]

I havent got my grades yet. I know that I'm getting an A in Electronics and Band, and I had an A in Calculus before the final, which I think I did well on, so hmmm... who knows. I don't even want to try for them anymore.

I hate the feeling of being mad at someone.
Me too; its so hard for me to get really angry at anyone, especially close friends, because that feeling sucks. I usually just get very dissatisfied. I also hold alot of grudges, which sucks.

For New Year's I believe I will be attending another amazing dance partay. I'm in some sort of predicament about it though, because in our carpool there might be a close friend of mine who won't know anyone at the party except for myself and my b-f. There will be lots of drinking, and the party is around an hour away, and I dont want to play babysitter to this woman :/

[br3ad_man]

oons oons


I got all B's this year. Meh. I got all A's for effort :cool:.

Holy poop. That is really wonderful.

I want Godspeed on vinyl. :upset:

This is the first year I have no idea what I'm getting for Christmas. I've been to lazy to snoop around, and all I had on my list were some books, a flash drive for my cell phone, and some oil paints and canvas.

I always get bummed out during the holidays for some reason. blah.

[Daniel!]

I think my parents got me all 4 Godspeed albums on vinyl for christmas. I'm totally giddy.

I pretty sure that my parents got me the new 2 disc version of Horses.

Awsome.

[Zappa]

Awsome.

For sure. My actual gift haul could be surprising, though.

We'll see.

[BillCosby]

Since Bear vs. Shark broke up, I was able to get a refund for my tickets, and I then used that money to buy tickets for the Fall of Troy in january. Yay!

I have no idea what I'm getting for Christmas. I didn't ask for anything. All I know is that I'm getting very little because my car was my birthday/christmas present.

[EightMilesHigh]

There's one thing I'm 99% sure I'm getting. When I was helping my mom unload groceries the other day, I saw a Chapters bag. I asked what it was, and she was like "Nothing you need to see :eek: " and tucked it away. I'm 99% sure it's a book of The Onion :p

I unwrapped some stuff today. Cash, a really nice sweater, and No Direction Home on DVD.

[BillCosby]

I do know that I'm getting Sin City and/or both Kill Bill 1 and 2 from my uncle.

[YDload]

I hope I get a book of The Onion articles, they're so great for toilet reading. But I don't think my parents know which ones we already have :(

Too much computer for you.

I got three 2 A's and 2 B's for the semester.
Probably.

But it's because I'm changing programs next semester, and none of these courses will give me an advanced standing in anything. It was pretty much a waste. I wasn't enjoying it, so I didn't try.

[EightMilesHigh]

Now, here beeth the question: Do I stay up all night tonight for Christmas, or do I try to get to bed? Because I have a feeling that if I do go to bed, I'll just be tossing and turning all night. :(

np: ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man

[The NPC]

Same here, brotha.

Probably.

But it's because I'm changing programs next semester, and none of these courses will give me an advanced standing in anything. It was pretty much a waste. I wasn't enjoying it, so I didn't try.

No more computer, you'll need to join the NPC Teaches You How to Learn club for 24 easy payments of $234.90 inorder to make it in this crazy world.

[Zmev]

Can I have that for free since it's Christmasssss?

What song should I play at my grandfather's funeral? He died today, of all days, but actually it makes perfect sense to me. He was a fervently religious man; he's sort of the reason I believe, and the fact that he died on the day before Chanukah (equivalent to Christmas Eve), which this year just so happens to be Christmas, just seems right. It was time.

Anyway, I'm playing at the funeral. What should I play?

[Zappa]

This game:

Boss DD-6 Digital Delay Pedal
South-African Thumb Piano
Pete & Pete Season 2 on DVD
South Park Season 6 on DVD
The Dub Room Special (Zappa TV Special) on DVD

North by Northwest on DVD
George Carlin's When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?
Lots of $$$ from relatives
Candy

He was a fervently religious man; he's sort of the reason I believe, and the fact that he died on the day before Chanukah (equivalent to Christmas Eve), which this year just so happens to be Christmas, just seems right. It was time.

Anyway, I'm playing at the funeral. What should I play?

Erm, obvious suggestion by me, but Iron & Wine is probably suitable. Each Coming Night, Faded From The Winter, or Sodom, South Georgia...

Those are probably terrible suggestions. Sorry if I offended you.

[JonM]

No, it's highly likely that it will be an Iron & Wine song. I have to consider the lyrics carefully. "Faded From The Winter" is probably a good choice, but I might be able to do better.

[BillCosby]

I don't know if it's fitting, because it's first person perspective , but the Johnny Cash version of "We'll Meet Again" is what I want played at my funeral.

EDIT: I wasn't just saying that, I mean that's my suggestion for you, Jon.

[Wanker]

I looked through most of Sam Beam's lyric library and either "Faded From The Winter" or "On Your Wings" are probably lyrically the best. I may have missed one though.

[JonM]

"Faded From The Winter" does seem to be the most fitting. It's eerie how many of the lines from "Sodom, South Georgia" apply, but others are totally not what I'm going for. "On Your Wings" might work, but I'd have to retool it musically, because I don't think it's quite the feel I'm going for as it is on the record.

Thanks, BC. I'll look into that one as well.

Santa brought me a bra from Victoria's Secret. What a perv.

He also brought my Mum a bra, except he mixed things up and put it in my Dad's stocking. What a silly man.

[Daniel!]

Free stuff I got:

Patti Smith - Horses 2 Disc Thingy
Miles Davis - Round Bout Midnight
John Coltrane and Thelonious Monk at Carnegie Hall
A new record player
4 Bruce Lee movies on DVD
A new cymbal stand
New drum heads for all my toms

2000th post!

I pray to God I don't get those when I'm old and moldy. :(

YDload, I'm going to see the Fall of Troy next month.

I got my brother their self-titled album for Christmas, and he graciously played it on the stereo so I could listen too. It's definitely better than Doppleganger, much more interesting.

I got the fifth season of The Simpsons on DVD, a book of The Onion stories, and an iPod nano (seems to work fine, I'll get the hang of it eventually). Some other stuff too, but who cares?

[Electrocution]

South-African Thumb Piano

I got one of these, too, except mine's from Zimbabwe. They're really fun, I've been playing mine all day. I also got Pete & Pete Season 2 :cool:

My sister's friend gave me a Crybaby and it's the coolest thing ever. I got him a RATM DVD.

EDIT: Oh and, you know, all 4 GYBE and both (real) EITS releases...on vinyl.

[BillCosby]

I'm looking to buy a 4-track cassette recorder just to mess around with some bedroom recordings and crap.

Is there any that are particularly good or bad, or are most pretty much the same?

[Zappa]

So we're twins.

I think my thumb-piano was actually made in America. But it's a beautiful sounding instrument.

[Dog]

Ooooh, luckies. I've wanted a thumb piano for a long time. I've seen them pretty cheap online so I'll probably order one some time.

I didn't ask for anything this Christmas so I just got a bunch of little things that I've needed for a while.

[Radiobass81]

I didn't notice how much I loved R.E.M until now...

[Robert Crumb]

I got a cashmere sweater for Christmas, among other things. I wouldn't think I'd be the kind of person who would wear a cashmere sweater. But it's easy to change your mind when you put one on.

Happy Kwanzaa.

[6Stringer]

I got a Creative Zen Touch 20 GB and Madden 2006 for Christmas. It was a good year, I believe.

[EightMilesHigh]

Sometimes I wonder why Iai is never on anymore.

Then I go back to listening to some indie rock band you've never heard of.

[Wanker]

I'm never falling asleep whilst listening to Set Fire To Flames ever again. I had THE weirdest dreams.

[biografiend]

I love my goldfish. Esteban and Buffalo Bill are friendz 4 lyfe, and it makes me happy when they play games and express their friendship whilst swimming in their bowl.


I wish I could fall asleep to music.

[Wanker]

It's not difficult to fall asleep to. There's lots of ambient, avant-garde noise along with lots of silence.

A lot of it is pretty soothing too. Soothing and creepy at the same time (if that's possible)

[Kyle]

Is the Sputnik skin for MX new, or is it just me?

edit: Oh I see......just read announcement.

[Happymeal]

For some reason the store where I bought my guitar is closed today, so I have to spend what's left of my funds on some effects pedal some other time.

Sounds great guys, really it does.

[Radiobass81]

I'm trying to get into Indie, so I bought the (older) Death Cab for Cutie CD. Not sure if it's any good (to you guys), but I really like it.

Also got R.E.M live and Brave New World :cool:.

Grap Funeral by The Arcade Fire and maybe Apologies To The Queen Mary by Wolf Parade.

Preferably from p2p to decide whether you want to buy them or not. Most indie bands are going for the cardboard sleeve cd cases now. They're cool but they can scratch the cd up sometimes. It sucks.

[Electrocution]

aaah korg is my neighbor (take that europe).

[EightMilesHigh]

What?

That's some really stupid advice.

I'm a pretty stupid guy.

[Radiobass81]

The Smiths are Indie?

I knew people here loved them, but I didn't know that :p...

Yeah, I listen to them. I was looking for "The Queen is Dead" all over the mall (went to quite a few CD places), but no luck...

[biografiend]

Try Brian Eno.

I have Ambient Music 1 and Neroli. I usually do some stream of conciousness writing to them both, its nice. I think I could fall asleep to music if I was tired enough, but most of the time I just space out and lay there and visualize, all that.

[br3ad_man]

w00t for working public holidays. I made $120 in 5 hours.

But still, to continue something at 18 that you started at 14 is pretty remarkable.

Indeed. I joined on my 16th birthday, so it must have been a really lame birthday.

I feel like we've recently been over this.

You know, it just occurred to me that I'm only comfortable here because no one I know from real life is on here (to my knowledge). My boy Mike was on here for about 10 minutes and now he doesn't come here anymore, so I'm free to be as nerdy as I want. Is it unhealthy that I'd feel like I had to behave differently if people I knew were on mx?

I was watching House last night, and at the part where the husband asked "Am I a bad person?" I was working on my drawing. I burst out laughing when he said that BECAUSE of my picture, and my sister looked and me with a horrified look on her face. Awkward!

Hey you.

I didn't get to sleep until four last night :( It was awful just tossing and turning in bed.

I even woke up and posted a bulletin about it on myspace at 3:30.

When I finally got to sleep, I had a dream about being on an old fashion train, and I had to kick people out the back, and all these tiny steel balls were floating around the main part of the train.

I had odd dreams :-/
