Interference Random Music Talk Part II: The Wrath of Khan

[LMP]

Got tickets to see Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Cat Power, and Spiritualized at the Hollywood Bowl. $25, no Ticketmaster fees.

Oh yeah.

The first two sound awesome, not familiar with Spiritualized though.

Ooooh Cat Power. She's sexy in that psychotically-intense-artist kinda way. Nice.

 

[lazarus]

I think we need to take this to the Hottest Girls Around thread...

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Most definitely.

This made for a good laugh:

Ever Get The Feeling You've Been Cheated? I Want My Money Back From These Concerts - GetBack

My favorite parts are when he didn't like that U2 dressed up as the Village People on tour and blasting Sting for turning Police songs in to prog rock versions on the reunion tour.

Two things...

#1. Does anyone read the the 'Guest List' column over at Pitchfork? Once or twice a week they take an artist and ask them questions such as "What's your favorite new band?, favorite song of all-time?, favorite piece of musical equipment?, favorite venue?, favorite TV show?, last great book you read?, what's your ringtone?" and it's really very interesting. It's probably my favorite thing that Pitchfork does and I look forward to reading the column each week. It gives you a more personal insight into the band members personalities, etc. Cool stuff.

#2. I've stumbled upon a television channel entitled MHD. Has anyone seen this channel? It's a high-defnition channel that just plays concerts all day. Really cool, it's all DVD quality concert footage and they play some great bands, too. Just over the last week or so they've shown hour-long concerts by Radiohead, R.E.M., and Tom Petty. This is quickly becoming my second favorite TV channel next to ABC Family.

I'm enjoying my improved version of Tori's Beekeeper today! Honestly, I think I'm the only person in the world that likes this album so much!

I have been listening to Scarlet's Walk lately, which I really enjoy...

 

[Zoots]

Elfa, I didn't know you liked Tori! Scarlet's Walk is beautiful!

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

my wife likes her more than I do but I have been listening to her more often lately...

Per that last clip, I shall henceforth be known as Torso Man.

Applications for the role of Torso Boy will be considered.

#1. I also really enjoy those, interesting to see how some of your favorite groups respond.

#2. I also have this channel, even the music videos they play late at night can be cool. Then again, what isn't cool in HD?! I hope they get more material to show soon though, they repeat a lot of the same shows a bit much unfortunately. From the Basement is still the coolest thing I've seen on there........which probably isn't surprising.

I loved the Afghan Wigs. Always wanted to check them out live.

I couldn't figure out why Donal Logue would be hosting 120 Minutes - I completely forgot he was Jimmy the cab driver.

 

[lazarus]

Since no one else responded to my post, you can be Torso Boy if you'd like.

 

[u2popmofo]

I would have watched had I known what videos are played. Tell me what videos are played, Laz. Tell me.

 

[UberBeaver]

Awesome. I got the perfect shirt for it too - ends just below my chest and has holes cut out for my nipples. I'm psyched.

 

[lazarus]

The videos are edited out. But it's a damn good playlist, I'll tell ya.

 

[Zoots]

I can't stop watching the I Kissed A Girl video! She's so fucking hot too!

Need my dumb catchy pop fix every now and then.

You're letting Delilah down.

Fuck Delilah! Katy Perry is the new spice girl.

We all need our dumb pop fixes, but surely you can do better than Katy Perry, zoots. I mean .... ew.

And please - Katy Perry wishes she could be a Spice Girl.

 

[Zoots]

The lyrics are awful (especially when she goes on about how girls are so touchable or whatever) but the song is ridiculously catchy!

 

[No spoken words]

Eh, for you maybe.

 

[corianderstem]

It's got a kicky little beat, I'll give her that (although I'd be surprised it if was her doing).

But it is my sworn duty to denounce Katy Perry. I took a solemn vow.

 

[Zoots]

It's got a kicky little beat, I'll give her that (although I'd be surprised it if was her doing).

Haha It probably wasn't!

 

[martha]

I've never heard this song.

 

[Zoots]

Eh, for you maybe.

I thought that went without saying!

And martha, here's the video:

YouTube - Katy Perry - I Kissed a Girl (Official Video)

 

[Zoots]

Apparently she went from making christian music to... Ur So Gay. What some people will do for attention!

 

[corianderstem]

Oh, what a shame. The video is no longer available.

Thank you, internet gods, from sparing martha (and the rest of us) from the horror of Katy Perry!
