Thanks guys! Ima have the most bestest summer mix ever.
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.
It wouldn't be a summer mix without:
- "In the Summertime" - Mungo Jerry
- "Sunny Afternoon" - The Kinks
- "Cruel Summer" - Bananarama
- "Under the Boardwalk" -- any version, really
- "Indian Lake" -- the Cowsills
Oh, incidentally, while looking up the Cowsills on Wikipedia, I found out the sad news that Barry Cowsill drowned during Katrina in NO.
Via The Morning News, here's a collection of Bauhaus tracks.

Oh, look at them.
sighs, marks post to get the tracks on the home computer.
I'm downloading Tom Waits famous (locally anyway) 1999 concert at the Paramount Theater in Oakland from that same site. (The Paramount is where our wedding guests joined us to see Viva Las Vegas the night before the wedding.)
Oh, look. There's a new Deerhoof EP on that site, too.
Is it the one with the covers? If it is, they have that EP free at their own website, too.
Any Chicagoistas interested in going to the Touch and Go Records 25th Anniversary Celebration at the 10th Annual Hideout Block Party?
It's September 8-10, and FAQWife & I are definitely there! I purchased a couple of extra tickets which I'd be happy to give to anyone able to provide us with a bed for the weekend.
Anyone? Bueller? Tina?
I think I'ma gonna have to get me these: [link]
"All the instruments use "new proximity sensor technology, pre-programmed songs [and] interchangeable instrument sounds" to "enable kids to mix and layer music with a simple wave of their hands." Entertainment Weekly played with them at Toy Fair: "While the keyboard is interesting, it's the motion-sensor instrument that responds when you wave your hand over the tubes that floored me. But the best part? The ability to hook your iPod up to them and mix over your favorite songs."
