    If you could only stop your heart beat for...

    If you could only stop your heart beat for one heart...

    If you could only stop your heart beat for one heart beat.

    Awesome.
  2. Patti Smith - Rock n Roll Nigger

     

    Baby was a black sheep. Baby was a whore.

    Baby got big and baby get bigger.

    Baby get something. Baby get more.

    Baby, baby, baby was a rock-and-roll nigger.

    Oh, look around you, all around you,

    riding on a copper wave.

    Do you like the world around you?

    Are you ready to behave?

     

    Outside of society, they're waitin' for me.

    Outside of society, that's where I want to be.

     

    (Lenny!)

     

    Baby was a black sheep. Baby was a whore.

    You know she got big. Well, she's gonna get bigger.

    Baby got a hand; got a finger on the trigger.

    Baby, baby, baby is a rock-and-roll nigger.

     

    Outside of society, that's where I want to be.

    Outside of society, they're waitin' for me.

     

    (those who have suffered, understand suffering,

    and thereby extend their hand

    the storm that brings harm

    also makes fertile

    blessed is the grass

    and herb and the true thorn and light)

     

    I was lost in a valley of pleasure.

    I was lost in the infinite sea.

    I was lost, and measure for measure,

    love spewed from the heart of me.

    I was lost, and the cost,

    and the cost didn't matter to me.

    I was lost, and the cost

    was to be outside society.

     

    Jimi Hendrix was a nigger.

    Jesus Christ and Grandma, too.

    Jackson Pollock was a nigger.

    Nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger,

    nigger, nigger, nigger.

     

    Outside of society, they're waitin' for me.

    Outside of society, if you're looking,

    that's where you'll find me.

    Outside of society, they're waitin' for me.

    Outside of society. (Repeat)

  3. I didn't realize he was well into his 70s. I enjoyed him when I was in high school but never really gave a thought to his age. I like that about books - when they're good, they don't neccessarily tell you anything about who wrote them, they tell you about yourself instead. RIP

  4. The Show in Fayetteville was nearly ruined for me by the presence of douchebag frat boys and their skeezy drunken girlfriend. I'm pretty sure they had no idea who the band was and were just there to get wasted and dance like they're "up in the club." Half of them were kicked out two songs into the opener's set. The night would have been a disappointment had they not closed with "Just Like Heaven." That redeemed the evening for me. :dancing

  5. I have a musician friend who always complains at concerts that the opening band doesn't sound as good as they should because the sound people tweak the system to make sure they don't upstage the headliner. Is that sort of thing true? It always drives me crazy when he rants about it.
