Just found out that The Waterboys are playing in town tonight. Of course I'm not going to be able to go. And it's at the little theater in The Old Town School, too. Great venue. Damn.

That interview is AMAZING! Thanks so much for posting it. Ian Rubbish is the new Spinal Tap. And just as good, in every way.

"Pink Moon" - Nick Cave

Yeah. I'm loosing my voice.

Video: Song's not bad, but her voice remains a thing of wonder. Want to hear the whole thing, I think.

Listening to Yaz this afternoon, loving Alison Moyet's voice, and wondering just what she has done recently. Came across THIS 4-star review on Allmusic.com Gotta say that I am intrigued. Anyone hear it? I'm thinking about picking it up.

Very cool. Thanks for starting that! Already a couple of responses confirming the direction that I am starting to lean toward. I'll keep checking in over there and see what other folks have to say too. Thanks again!

Okee-dokee. I thought that there was. Been pronouncing it wrong all this time, too.

I gave the chef here in the cafeteria at work this recipe. He brought in fresh HABAÑEROS from his garden to do a version of this that just might kill me. Said he's making it today and gonna have me try a great big spoonful. The jalapeño version is spicy enough. Like, pretty damn spicy. Say a little prayer for me, please.

Yeah. It's pretty cool. I love hearing him acoustic, with not much more; all stripped down. Some good tunes on there.

Just heard from my guitar shop: In order to apologize for all the trouble, Fender are going to give me a pickup upgrade. So, which do I want in my '69 Thinline reissue?: The Vintage Noiseless: http://www.fender.com/accessories/pickups/vintage-noiseless-tele-pickups-set-of-2/ or Custom Shop Nocasters: http://www.fender.com/accessories/pickups/custom-shop-51-nocaster-pickups-set-of-2/ Which would y'all pick to get the classic Tele sound out of a 69 Thinline reissue? Okay friends... help me out!

Just went back and listened to the demo version of a song which I had re-recorded for release. I was a little bummed to discover that I preferred my performance on that demo to what I ultimately released. This ever happen to you? After the fact? When it's too late? How do you feel about it? For reference here are the 2 versions: DEMO RELEASED VERSION Thoughts? Looking for an actual discussion here. Feel free to post your own examples if you have them. Thanks!

I don't think that ANYONE saw that one coming.
