Cash Cow - rBGH My old punk band (from 1994). Yeah, a little musical masturbation for me this afternoon!

My favorite 2 minutes in all the history of cinema. Hell, my favorite 20 seconds or so is the final portion of this clip: "Hey, Boo!"

Aah, but are you listening to Copyright? Now, THAT would be a coincidence! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5QGrfoKCdk

I am blanking on who those other bands are at this moment, but I get a definite 90's vibe from you guys and it just FEELS to me like some of those bands that I saw around town; bands who I liked but who never really made much of a splash beyond Chicago. Hopefully you will make a bigger one. I like it!

Very nice work! Echoes of Camper van Beethoven in the vocals... sounds little like some local (Chicago) bands that I am a fan of, as well. I like the horns and it's just good summertime music. So, just how much $US is 20 PLN?

It's blocked here at work for me, so I am not a user. But my band is on there.

I've had many of my own songs already covered by other (unknown) performers, who did so just because they like the tunes and wanted to have a go at them. Flattering as hell and, it gives me encouragement that maybe there is something to it. Maybe I have a shot? So, at the urging of my family and friends, I am thinking about going into songwriting for other folks; pitching my own songs to established performers that I have already written. Any of y'all do it? Have you had any success? Any tips? I've already put in my first call to an entertainment lawyer/agent who has represented "several s

A friend of mine just left this link on my wall at Facebook. An interesting read, if you are a fan. Even if you are not, it may make you want to take a listen to his music. I think you'll be happy: http://www.afropop.o...ever-his-thing/

I thought of them, but wasn't sure if they would qualify, as Damon really has made that his full-time gig after the breakup of Blur.

This is the album that I am listening to right now: An initial RIYL: Lloyd Cole, The Waterboys, The Humblebums, and a few others that I can't think of right now. It's my first listen, and it's not exactly killing me, but I am still somehow compelled to keep listening. That is a good thing, and a sign that it is most-likely a serious grower. I read the AMG bio both for Leven, himself and for his earlier band, Doll by Doll. But can anyone else get me a bit more of a personal take on his music? I like to hear what you folks think, if you are familiar. Thanks!

Currently I am listening to Latin Playboys, the very, very cool side project of David Hidalgo and Louie Perez from Los Lobos. And while it is incredibly cool, as I said, and I will listen to it for a long time, it is still not my favorite foray outside of a primary band by a musician that I admire. That would be: THE DUKES OF STRATOSPHEAR The spot-on 60s psych-evoking band that is populated solely by members of XTC. They only had 2 releases: an EP (25 O'Clock) and an LP (Psonic Sunspot), but both of them were every bit as good as anything ever released by their main band -- one of the best b
