Random Music Talk LVII: Impy ruined my brain

[mobvok]

Mobvok's horoscope for May 12, 2012:

Centuries of confusion and torment will resolve itself quite neatly upon discovering that Nick Cave and Nick Drake are, in fact, two different people. Chucklehead.

She had this delightfully awkward stage presence; I hate to call it "adorable," but really that is the only term coming to mind right now.

I love that little backwards stumble she does whenever she solos.

Reggo, alternate some hot packs. That's about all I got.

I still have never heard st vincent. I get the impression I wouldn't like it.

 

[corianderstem]

Hearing reports Purple Rain went for 40 minutes last night in Sydney.

Now that's just excessive.

 

[bono_212]

Thank you guys for the information

Information? I definitely meant condolences...

 

[IWasBored]

I like belle & sebastian.

 

[corianderstem]

Information? I definitely meant condolences...

I was wondering about that! Ha.

Last night I picked up Father John Misty*, Here We Go Magic and the new Keane. All three are pretty damned great. Maybe it's the gorgeous weekend and the bliss of spending a day reading in the sunshine, but I really love all three of them.





*and boy, was he heavy! hyuck hyuck hyuck

I may or may not be wearing this shirt.

[Jive Turkey]

I'm not sure how I feel about evil Chewie

 

[lazarus]

Totally racist.

 

[cobl04]

Just had to sit through a 30 second advert to watch a youtube clip. It's getting worse.

 

[lazarus]

Sprained my ankle while on a walking tour in Granada, Spain. At least, I hope it's just sprained. Looks like something between a golf and tennis ball.

Really don't want to have to go to a hospital here. Sitting with an ice pack on it, will see how it is tomorrow.

Sprained my ankle while on a walking tour

That is weaksauce. I'm gonna call a crew of idiot twenty-somethings from a Miller Lite commercial and have them come take your man card.

Seriously, though, get your shit together.

They say there are two kinds of people in this world: Those who do not want to see what a Wookie looks like completely shaved and those who do. I can say without hesitation that I fall confidently in the latter category

If there isn't a real Star Wars Donkey Kong already, there should be.

 

[Jive Turkey]

I like the shirt, but I'm so sick of the "take two geek things and mix them together to make a new geek thing. I'm so clever!" thing

 

[Danny Boy]

Wut U mean "geek things?"

 

[Jive Turkey]

Nothing wrong with geek things. I like geek things.

That really sucks. If you can find an acupuncturist that would help enormously. Also homeopathic remedy Arnica (taken internally) which shouldn't be hard to find (homeopathy is more popular in Europe than here). And you can get one of those stretchy ankle support things at a drug store. Of course being Sunday where you are may make it tougher.

I had this happen on a work trip and did all of the above and was fine. But perhaps it wasn't a bad sprain. Hope it's not broken.

 

[martha]

This is why Segway tours are the way to go.

 

[Danny Boy]

Whoever was asking for recommendations for "non-club-beats" electronic music the other day, I've just been listening to R.I.P. by Actress, and I think it may be the sort of thing you had it mind.

Eighteen steps forward, one step back.

I'm not sure how I feel about evil Chewie

I'll agree there, but the rest of the shirt's general awesomeness offset it for me.

I like the shirt, but I'm so sick of the "take two geek things and mix them together to make a new geek thing. I'm so clever!" thing

It's definitely the trend these days, but when it works, it's completely amazing. Unfortunately, most of the time now one of the two things is Dr. Who, and I'm getting pretty damn tired of that.

 

[Danny Boy]

Someone in my neighborhood is totally jamming on an electric guitar. Just transitioned (pretty well) from a blues riff to the Sweet Child O' Mine intro.

 

[Jive Turkey]

At my old place a couple month back, I could hear someone playing Zebra on their guitar

I think the more appropriate advice here would be to tell him to just walk it off.

tried the homeopathic stuff for my shoulder, have decided muscle relaxers are the best thing ever.
