I'm absolutely using "sell someone under the bus" the next time I can at work.

Now I think of it, she might have said "boat" rather than "bus."  Either way is pretty great.

Same Ol Mistakes is a tame Impala cover.....actually sounds better than the original

They must've been so stoked when that idea came up.

I have a friend who is known for her malapropisms, whatever you call 'em. Things like "look, I'm not trying to sell anyone under the bus..." (one of my favorites). A while back she mentioned having tickets to the Lame Llama show, I think I shot beer out my nose.

Been listening to a tribe called red for the last hour so. Pretty rad. Powwow-step (I read that on the Internet!) From Ottawa. Here's some links:

Thanks for sharing. Kinda funny to read a translated website, but you get the gist. I actually shed a little tear.

The past month I've listened to rihanna's "anti" album more than anything else. Love it.


Listening to cate le bon "crab day" right now and for the past 3 crab days after seeing her/them live. Great show, I think everyone left wishing they could run away with the band. Such a great group, I was transfixed. Can't and won't stop listening to the record.

^^Hahaha, great!!

I saw the first "legacy" tour, it was fuckin awesome. Would go to this thing if it was made cheap and easy for me, unless I was doing something else like going to a barbecue.

Someone told me about an unplugged danzig show, with dale on guitar, that's modelled after the '68 comeback special. I only found it on ru.tube, which wouldn't run on any of my devices. Shame.

I always got spam with my breakfast the time I went to Hawaii. Loved it. It made me think of the spam sandwiches my dad used to make, and how I hated them, but to him they were a delicacy. Only had 'em when mom was out. Then I saw an ad in some old magazine, a platter of "spam fries." They looked so good. I bought a can of reduced sodium spam and made it into fries and put 'em in a pan and really made 'em into fries. I ate about a third of the meat sticks, feeling heavier and shittier with each one, but also nearing gluttonous ecstasy with each bite!  I then put them down and drank probably 5 or 6 cans of beer and I'd guess 5 ounces of rye, smoked a joint or two and beat off. Went back and ate the remainder of the spam fries, cold, seemingly greasier than before. I really was enjoying them at the time, but I swear I suffered for 3 days after that can of spam. I was bloated, tired, had a headache. I mean, that's pretty much my baseline, but I could feel the potted meat in particular. I mean, I eat garbage, but one can of spam really did me in. I can't imagine the full-flavored version without barfing in my mouth a little bit.

I'm sure I'll eat it again one.day. everything in moderation.

Wait...your CLICK the PICS!  This kind of changes everything.  Not sure how I never noticed this...

I just ignore his posts, lists are the most boring things in the world. No offense, Krapo, I'm sure language comes into play here, but give me ideas and thoughts please.

Same.  It's record porn, I guess, but I'm not hip enough to know what I'm looking at half the time. And no "what do you have to say about it," ever.

Hasn't really sunken in yet, I guess. Earlier was listening to 1999, dancing around the apartment by myself, "little red corvette" comes on and I thought something like "next time he comes we HAVE  to go," as if it'd be the last chance. Guess the last real chance already came. I went, but it was Third Eye Girl or whatever. They played "let's go crazy" as an encode but I don't think any other prince songs. First show of the tour.

My sister went to the Seattle show on that tour, by that time the negative feedback re: lack of oldies had gotten around and for the encode they played a medley of like 20 early songs. At the end, Prince said "thank you Seattle! But more importantly...thank me."

Fuckin Prince. Arena show with l the huts  few years ago is def my fave show of all time.

A girl at work just saw it on her phone and blurted it out. I had to leave the office and go for a walk and a coffee.

Not super surprised, given recent health issues. In fact just three or four days ago wife and I were talking, figuring, ya know. Not surprised, definitely shocked, if that makes sense.

Total bummer. So happy I got to see him a few times, was really hoping for one more.

RIP to the max.

Because I'm a fuckin nihilistic punk rocker and I think fuckin babies and families are shit.
Yeah, right. Just you wait.

Nah man, some people are really like that! Sad people, generally.
