Good news for Kylie Minogue fans -- she's beating the cancer.
Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
If anything, the songs are even more ferocious than their last.
Excellent!

Jon, I picked up the new Calexico sight unseen (or, I guess, sound unheard - and it still is at this point), along with a Ladytron remix CD and the expanded re-release of My Life in the Bush of Ghosts. Have you heard it yet?
the new Calexico
I like it. No big surprises, but if you like Calexico, you'll like this one. "Deep Down" is the "hit", oddly buried as track 8 or 9.

That's what I was hoping to hear. I really need to see them live some time, dammit. One of the biggest minuses to being in Salem is not being walking/reasonable cab distance from home if I'm out at a club in Boston/Cambridge.
Thanks for the COMM, JohnS!
Jon [B] played a delightful set of pop songs including I Wanna Be Sedated. His programming of two moogerfoggers chained onto his EWPro gave his sound an knurly vocal quality that changed with pitch and volume adding to the expressive wit of his performance. His deadpan head bobbing brought exhilarated guffaws from the house. He used a digitech jam man for playback and ran it all through his fender amp. Being so self contained helped a lot in placement choices for this EWPro and he was a true pro as well having to endure re-setting up three times and was incredibly helpful with all his multi-men performance experience.
Wooo Jon B.!
Excellent!
Hey, Michael Stipe and Iggy Pop playing with the New York Dolls! Fun!
Less fun, one of the Pointer Sisters has died -- of cancer.

Bo Diddley too! Let's throw all of David's favorite music into the meat grinder and make spicy sausage.
"Playing music is the best thing in the world," Johansen said in a statement. "It makes show business almost bearable."
Jenny Toomey
I remember her! Tsunami. Is she still doing the lounge singer type act?
My fave Coen bro.s movie is Raising Arizona. "Son, you've got a panty on your head."
Sometimes I think I'd like to see the Coen Bros remake other people's movies, to do the cool shot! thing without messing up the story. Like "It's a Wonderful Life." That would be kickass.
I like Miller's Crossing the best, but I haven't seen Barton Fink. Looks like now I don't have to! Woot!
