Random Music Talk LXXXVII: Which one of you called my church?

[PhilsFan]

I went to a Cracker Barrel once, that's pretty much my entire impression of southern cuisine. Also, currency, because it seems like biscuits are the equivalent of a nickel there.

 

[LemonMelon]

Grits

Maryland is close enough to the south that I was on board with this from childhood. You either dig the texture or you don't, which is literally the only selling point, as they're even less flavorful than oatmeal.

It's also one of the few things I feel safe ordering at bottom-tier diners like Denny's. Tough to screw it up.

 

[joyfulgirl]

So the chicken and waffles marathon is still going strong, I see.

 

[LemonMelon]

It's not like this is the best music release week in months or anything.

 

[bono_212]

You can't fight chicken & waffles, Joyful, you just have to accept that.

 

[IWasBored]

I can't figure out why spotify is recommending Melvins' Houdini because I listened to Russian circles.

I lost all of my biscuits in a competitive game of checkers.

Note the opening line:

 

[IWasBored]

I am really not enjoying this new nine inch nails album. So I'm going to listen to Ramallah instead.

 

[Danny Boy]

I know that what we're doing flies in the face of the Kickstarter Amanda-Palmer-Start-a-Revolution thing, which is fine for her, but I'm not super-comfortable with the idea of Ziggy Stardust shaking his cup for scraps. I'm not saying offering things for free or pay-what-you-can is wrong. I'm saying my personal feeling is that my album's not a dime. It's not a buck. I made it as well as I could, and it costs 10 bucks, or go fuck yourself.

Ironically enough, Hesitation Marks is available as a free download through my local library using Freegal. It will take me a few weeks to download it all, but damned if I'm paying 10 bucks for it now.

I guess my tax dollars support the public library and all, but still...

 

[Hewson]

New inventions...knife and fork

But how do you cut a piece of chicken?



?

I'll listen to it again when I'm not at work, I'll stream it off spotify, but from what I've heard so far, it sure as shit isn't worth ten bucks, or even a dime.

As the day came up she made a start
She stopped waiting another day for



The captain of her heart

Ok, maybe I'm just crazy, or uncivilized, or whatever, but I can't imagine eating chicken with a knife and fork. We're talking about fried chicken, right? Like KFC style? I just don't see how you eat a drumstick with knife and fork.

 

[gvox]

Get this: Larry has joined the forum and is posting over in EYKIW. I shit you not.

Its not a drumstick, its a breast, fried "KFC" style and with maple syrup all over it so you better use a knife and fork.

Why, as a Canadian vegan, do I know more about southern US comfort food than you guys?

Maybe Tim the lumberjack has a theory.

 

[Hewson]

Perhaps you're actually a Canadian Vegan Somnambulist and you eat chicken and waffles and other meaty delicacies whilst you sleepwalk and don't even realize it. Would explain all the chicken and sparerib bones you find around your bed every morning.

 

[BoMac]

I haven't been paying attention because U2 is the only band I ever listen to and I am so crushed that the album is delayed, but what's the deal with this Arcade Fire album again? Are we getting a single soon? Like this week?

Here's your answer:

'Something' Arcade Fire Related Happening on 9/9 at 9 p.m. Worldwide | Music News | Rolling Stone

That is, of course, unless the 'Nati step in.

 

[u2popmofo]

For some reason I had that U2 song, 'Levitate', in my head when I woke up this morning. Haven't thought of it in ages.

There's a surf shop in my town called Levitate, every time I drive past it my first thought is the U2 song.

Do you throw bricks through the windows of their business to congratulate them?

I'd say there's another time, another place for that kind of behavior.

 

[lazarus]

Now now, Boy(s). We don't want this thread getting Out Of Control.






Please kill me.

Up until now, The 'Nati has only pretended to tolerate them.

Weird... On my computer, Hewson 's post was blank.

 

[Hewson]

Much like my mind.

Only at Twilight so I can lurk in the Shadows and Tall Trees rather than run to hide by the Ocean.

(In the truth is stranger than fiction category, Levitate is on Ocean Street.)
