Friday Random Ten, I need A Potty Break edition

Some people do eleven, some do twelve; I'm going to go for FIFTEEN because I love you all so much!

1. Nena- 99 Luftballoons. Great. New version of iTunes, and right off the frickin bat it makes me pull the STFU card. Not cool at all; guess where not doing the NCSA today. Sorry Norbizness. I like it anyway, step right the fuck off.

2. Mekons - Dan Dare. Ahh! Apology accepted, iTunes! A live version of a song dedicated to the obscure British comic that gave the Mekons their name, never recorded. “Outer! Space! Is a really nice place!” The epitome of DIY.

3. ZZTop - Don't Tease Me. White-boy blues, back from before the Republicans destroyed Texas. Friday music. Makes me want to go Drink beer and Raise Hell.

4. Mojo Nixon. Put a Sex Mo-Sheen in The White House. Really. I fully agree; someone who's getting laid on a regular basis won't be as repressed and more importantly, won't have so much free time to think up ways to screw us over. Nice segue from the ZZ, it's typically subtle song from the man who wrote Jesus at McDonald's and Stuffin Martha's Muffin. Mojo For President!

5. Utopia- Monument. prog from Todd Rundgren. Some people don't care for Todd; I admit I don't understand them.

6. Dropkick Murphys - Wheel of Misfortune.

7. Rush - Tom Sawyer. Don't Judge Me! Don't Judge me!

8. Mojo Nixon and the ToadLiquors - Are You Drinkin' With Me Jesus. Mojo cover of a Peter Berryman song. More drinkin' music; if I don't show up for work on Monday, It'll be iTunes fault. 'I know you can walk on water, but can you walk on this much beer?'

9. Yo La Tengo - Damage. Quiet and noise. It's like if Thurston Moore joined Low. Radiohead should be this good.

10. The Kinks - Pressure. Gallon of Gas would have been so much more appropriate. Ray Davies recently said “New Orleans is the ideal place to get shot in”
11. ZZTop - Precious and Grace Alright, this is enough. I really don't have that much ZZ on my list.

12. The Futureheads- Danger of The Water. No fucken kidding.

13. The Waterboys - The Ways of Men. No shit. I've got Waterboys on my HD?

14. Blue Oyster Cult - The Old Gods Return.

15. Chiapet - Don't You Want Me. Droning, low-fi cover of the 80's tune.


Well, that's fifteen. It's time to get back to repairing the damage to our infrastructure done by the Republicans for the last five years.
