Where Do We Go Now But Nowhere?

Fast N Furious Random Snooters today- No spiel, just 100% pure filler!

Oh, except for mentioning that rambling, disconnected, borderline-Alzheimer's speech Bush gave yesterday. I know things have not been going well for Our CEO Preznit (remember when a man who can't run a business anywhere but into the ground was going to somehow become competent at running a country?) but seriously, WTF was that?!? In front of a friendly crowd, he merely rambled from half-remembered talking point to half-remembered talking point, verbal tics and cliches mumbled along the way. No focus, no point, no idea what he's trying to say. Stoned on tranks of some kind, I'd wager; alcohol would have screwed up his balance.

From 27,780 items, 107 gigs of noise.


1. Save You from the album "Pulsars" by Pulsars
2. Love 1 from the album "Universal Truths And Cycles" by Guided By Voices
3. Trying to Quit from the album "Flying Saucer Tour, Vol. 1: Pittsburgh 6/20/91" by Bill Hicks
4. Hand In Hand from the album "This Year's Model" by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
5. Picture In A Frame from the album "Mule Variations" by Tom Waits
6. Love Me, I'm a Liberal from the album "Prairie Home Invasion" by Prairie Home Invasion
7. Head On from the album "Automatic" by The Jesus & Mary Chain An excellent song, one of the few that was outdone by a cover: The Pixies version just rocks. Although today is certainly more of a JAMC day. Well played, iTunes.
8. 13 Steps Lead Down from the album "Brutal Youth" by Elvis Costello
9. Everything I Touch from the album "Darkest Days" by Stabbing Westward
10. One Christmas Catalogue from the album "Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Xmas" by Captain Sensible


bonus 11, 12, 13 or so:

11. I'm Gonna Take You Home (And Make You Like Me) from the album "Georgia Hard" by Robbie Fulks Hilarious duet with....Kelly Willis?
12. Second Chance from the album "Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits Of The '80s, Vol. 6" by Any Trouble
13. Hands from the album "Broken Boy Soldiers" by The Raconteurs
14. California Sun (Live) from the album "All The Stuff (And More)" by the Ramones

    To continue the musical them, when it comes to Bush's media events, I used to be disgusted, and now I try to be amused.

    Is that a cover of the Phil Ochs' "Love Me, I'm a Liberal?"

    I believe so, but Prairie Home Invasion is Jello Biafra and Mojo Nixon, so it's got a certain over the top wahoo backyard punk aesthetic.

    Rock that Wacos.

    I have never even heard that Amy Winehouse song, but I'm already getting sick of it.

    Same with Lily Allen.

    Too much buzz kills the artistry.
