Music Shit / Re: why are movie soundtracks so lame?

You can't go wrong with early goblin, john carpenter

Love Carpenter's soundtracks...Halloween the obvious, but Assault on Precinct 13 is a fantastic soundtrack. As is the one-chord soundtrack for The Thing...one-chord for an entire film!

Sad news.  I saw him play once in 1996, in a duo with Charles Gayle at The Cooler.  He wore a black t-shirt that said "#1 Grandpa" and played as furiously and lyrically as ever.

I was actually at this show!  I miss the Cooler...free Monday night gigs were the best.

RIP

Yes, Southpaw was a GREAT great set...Makes up for missing the Gories this month.  One of my favorite things is how Russell just keeps playing the drum beat after the song is over.  Kinda like an over-excited kid. I've seen him do this in other bands...love it!!!
