my band was called dog, but we only did it live

Dog!!Great band! Just pulled out the "Circus" b/w Lion's Den" single on Casting Couch the other day. Damn....I gotta replace my missing copy of the "My Crushing Device" single, too. "The b-side of that, "El Toro," is such a killer! That song always reminded me of TAD in a weird way....Those are the only two singles that I am familiar with....Did you guys release anything else?

Back in the early '90's, you guys got a lot of time on the turntable in an old house in the middle of nowhere Pennsylvania from a bunch of crazy fuckers shooting off guns, riding (and wrecking) old motorcycles, all while consuming any and all substances that could be found. Man....I miss those Dummies.....and Dog.

I think the Dwarves continued to excel through "Sugarfix," which could have been even better if it wasn't so sterile sounding. Great songs...wish they sounded like the "Underworld" single where I think they sounded their best...

Not the same band(s), but I think that the progression of Timmy Vulgar's projects has been pretty fucking great...

I was going to say the same thing re: a single LP with the best songs and no covers. I agree, though that there would only be minimal interest. Billy has one spare of "Off the Deep End" which he thinks can fetch over $100. I had to disagree with that, but who knows....I'm not too bright...

The last time I went to Billy's, he was pretty much out of most of his stuff compared to a few years ago when he had many copies of everything. We talked about doing some reissues, and he is up for it if anyone is interested. I like most of the stuff, but there are definitely way too many covers...

I intentionally avoid even thinking about this, but, when my wife informs me that we (I) have drained our bank account with a week to go until our next pay, I know that it's not good...It is a good thing that we had to file for bankruptcy and lost our home to foreclosure because it forced me to give up the credit cards....I think I would be better off being a heroin addict....

Music Shit / Re: RIP Bruce Roehrs

Man...death keeps coming. This is really sad. Never met Bruce, but I always enjoyed his enthusiasm for music. While he was consistently excited about the working class punks, I will never forget when he compared the first single I ever played on and released as being similar to Sister Ray (the band)...such a sad day...Alex, now Bruce...I feel sad and old...

Non-Music Shit / Re: Chatroulette finds

« on: March 16, 2010, 09:47:15 AM »

...as much as this thing disturbs me, i can't help but to waste hours staring at random people. this is also my first experience with anything related to a webcam or communicating with one, and what a way to be initiated i'm not crazy about the people wearing masks and shit....they may be sillier than the masturbators, whom i find quite hilarious. it is hard for me to imagine deciding that today is a good day to jerk off for the international cretins floating through the cameras. what i really do like is when you catch a glimpse of someone who is just odd, like the oblivious senior citizens and the pissed off rednecks who look as if they are on the hunt for a fight.

...i'm not sure how long the appeal will last, but it is quite enjoyable, for now, watching and examining human nature at its most bizarre and confusing. btw, i was just "reported" by "a bed" (yes, a bed) for some unknown reason. i can only take people (and cyborg mattresses) in small doses, so, once i am bored, it is nice to throw em away. NEXT!

...the one drawback i can already feel is that, now, anytime i am on the computer, i have this irrational fear that it is all just like chatroulette and people can see me, even if i can't see them. this could cause some issues if i'm not careful......no need to become even more paranoid than i already am....

Non-Music Shit / Re: Marantz 4230 question...

« on: March 16, 2010, 09:08:44 AM »

Thanks for the input. The main things that worry me are the cost for repairs or replacement parts and that looks can be deceiving. I get the sense that the seller is not someone familitar with these receivers, as he mentioned that it was in storage. My guess? A family member had it, died and this guy wants to simply get rid of it. This, alone, could be a good thing if my theory is correct and the dead person rarely used it. On the other hand....could be a mess.....

I'm waiting for the guy to call back about this. I am hoping that it is in good shape. I think you should take care of the legwork on this for me, Joe....thanks....
