I can't believe one of the Brits on this board hasn't called this one out yet. Finbar Saunders and his double entendres.

As an erstwhile Anglophile, I was fully aware of the implications of that post.

Now back to the mantis dance...

I would get nervous and then throw up if something like this happened to me.

See if I ever recommend New Zealand folk pop parodists to you then.

although i will forever lament the lack of recorded evidence of the Dan-n-Sam-Casio-Section.

Though I'm eternally grateful for the lack of footage capturing the "Raspberry Beret" mantis dance.

And once again, thanks to Chandler and the FOH gang (Dave and Mart) for the proper mic placement and knob twiddling. You'd barely even know we're there!

By the way, it sounds freakin' wonderful, so it will be worth the wait!

Big ups to Chandler for his work on the show!

9/9/02 LA ::swoon::

Both LA shows, as a matter of fact.

Also, the two DC shows in October (October 14 and 15), not just because of the sentimental value , but 10-15 was the first time the band played "Poor Places" live. There's also some goofiness with Leroy hitting his head and leaving the stage on the first night.

Finally, a show I didn't attend but that I really dig: Austin, 9-27, taped by our own Tugmoose. The puke breaks are kinda charming, believe it or not--at least on disc, not so sure about in real life.

what about PMing people and asking them for copies of Daniel 'Richard' Simmons in his candy underthings? or should we wait until we know if he wants them out there? jesus jones.

Been there, done that.

By popular request, the stately Amelia and the lowly posing pouch:

Now if only Brianne can make goat's head-shaped baklava, we'd be in business.

A couple more pics:

Now having heard "The Long Cut" live, I can retire gracefully from the concert circuit...or not.

Thanks to everyone who made this weekend possible. Just when I think I know what to expect, it keeps getting better. The new faces: You are a glowing addition to the festivities. The old faces: I've long stopped trying to imagine life without you. And Jeff and Susan, for their bountiful generosity.

I can't do justice to the highlights, but that won't stop me from listing a few: learning the connection between "The Ruling Class" and the King of Hill TV series; finding out who the true guitar virtuoso in the family is; hearing/watching good friends KILLING IT on "Fatal Wound" and "Kamera"'; once again regaling the crowd with our "strong" rendition of "I Got You" (after hours); not getting arrested, in general.

Heck, I'd even trade in the Bay Area's gray skies for a little bit of Chicago bluster right now.

you're the most beautiful girl on the street

of the girls on the street

depending on the street...

 

Or later that night, from the headliner:

I am the robot who killed all the humans

That bbop sure knows who to party with.

Neil, schmeil--tell me about Flight of the Conchords!

By the way, the alleged 6th black Wilco fan may have been there for Sonic Youth, who were also on the bill that day.

You've got to know I've taken hits protecting you

And keeping you from toppling yourself

Trust me when I tell you it's a big amount of work

And my time is better spent on myself

Leaving you with no one keeping tabs

Leaving you entirely up for grabs

The world will revolve and

Your sob story's growing something old

I'm not going to solve them

You're someone else's problem now

You are someone else's problem now

Everything I did for you was out of love

Take, for instance, running when you called

But you didn't ever, given you abused your privileges

So it shouldn't be surprising that I've stalled

Leaving you with no one on your side

It's the only thing I haven't tried

The world will revolve and

Your sob story's growing something old

I'm not going to solve them

You're someone else's problem now

You are someone else's problem now

You are someone else's problem now

Tell me why I feel so bad, honey

TV's flat and nothing is funny

I get sad and stuck in a cone of silence

Like a big balloon with nothing for ballast

Labeled like a bottle for Alice

Drink me down or I'll drown in a sea of giants

And tell me, "Baby, baby, I love you

It's nonstop memories of you

It's like a video of you playing

It's all loops of seven-hour kisses

Cut with a couple near-misses

Back to the scene of the actor saying:

'Tell me, baby, baby

You can spot a number of us in this one:

I know of at least one picture where you can't see him:

A simple tale of rich to rags

But one that often comes to mind

The seer that looked into the mirror

And left his sleeping wife behind

I said goodnight Sir John Dee

Well light is a medicine to all of us

With which we feed the silver lamb

That walks beside the wolf of the trinity

They say her teeth are made of sand

I said goodnight John Dee

Goodnight

A lantern swinging like a pendulum

The shape of your smile's shadow appears

To invoke the worst I reached into my purse

And I took out the shew-stone gently

And I said goodnight well goodnight John Dee

Goodnight well goodnight John Dee

Goodnight goodnight John Dee

Goodnight

September gurls do so much

I was your butch and you were touched

I loved you, well, never mind

I've been crying all the time

December boys got it bad

September gurls, I don't know why

How can I deny what's inside

Even though I'll keep away

Maybe we'll love all our days

When I get to bed, late at night

That's the time she makes things right

Ooh when she makes love to me

===========

Makes me wish I were one

well, the conversion of my old theme didn't really work like they stated it would, so i will have to create a new layout for the forum.

 

so hold tight for a few days

 

hope you all like the new features

Tria--ah, never mind.

Thanks in advance, K-Train.

Rob, it's come so far since those early stages! It looks cool, and I can't wait for the official road test to begin.
