Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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.

Joe, I'm gonna take it to email since I need your new address, I think. Unless you're still in your old place.

One thing that may have influenced my playing some of the Buffista Frankenmix more than others was that the earlier sets had a couple more weeks of rotation through my Smartlists, which may have ramped their numbers up some in relation to the songs that came later to my attention. But as a fair approach to judging what songs really hit my buttons, it seems a decent try....

It was cool to see a couple of mine on there too, Theo.

Beautiful baby pic, David. Keep 'em coming!
In the field of self-pimpage, I wrote a few words about a song I like by the band Akron/Family on my blog today (which is underneath the first paragraph's mea culpa for talking about frivolous music while the American Dream lies burning in the street).

For a couple more weeks at least. Heard this the other day & thought of you:"Tuvan throat singer Albert Kuvezin tells us about his album of classic rock covers: Re-Covers." At times he sounds a lot like Waits, then he'll sound like what TW might if he'd been listening to Diamanda Galas and thought, "Maybe I'll try singing like that." Definitely interesting.
Corwood, re: your rant: you're preaching to the choir, but Amen, brother! Further comment there. And thanks for the R&L video! She was pretty hot back in the day. You already know how I feel about her singing. Sigh.

Excellent! You know else is excellent? I found your package. It had arrived (without me knowing it) and immediately gotten buried under big magazines and did not get unearthed until this morning when I was moving stuff around to get ready for the baby. Yay, book!

I was wondering how long it would take you to see that video, Joe. When Mrs. Industries saw it, she asked how old Linda is in the video. I said 24-25. She said Linda looked mid-30s to her. Yeah, I said, but she still looks pretty close to the same and she's in her 60s now.

The Decemberists live on Soundcheck right now. Should be archived by 5 or 6.
Glad you got the book, David. Did I ever send you a copy of "My Name Is Cheech the Schoolbus Driver"? Figured you & Emmett would like it, & now that there's another little one if I haven't sent it it's time to rectify the situation.

One of the greatest things ever: Iggy's concert rider.
My favorite thing: the description of Mike Watt (aka the bass player) as "an Internet Pepys or Boswell, except without the gout and the syphilis. For all I know."
