Random Music Talk XLII: Championship Vinyl Aux Holes

[elevated_u2_fan]

But then I listen to the BBC version of The Loneliness of a Tower Crane Driver, and I'm all HOT DAMN at that big crescendo-y bit.

I love that fucking song! I'm finally going to see them on Sept 28, I am really excited.

 

[corianderstem]

I'm so jealous. I can't believe the only west coast date is one night in LA.

I feel like a damnable infant trying to use this Macbook. It's amazing how deeply engrained the Windows operating system is in my technological behavior.

same. The very first thing I did was change that mousepad to be able to right click, and I've been googling "how to ... on a Mac" ever since

That sucks! I've missed them twice now, once on their own but that was before I had really discovered them and once with Coldplay and I couldn't justify the $100 ticket at the time...

I need to do that immediately.

I just spent ten minutes trying to rename a file.

I now love the song Danger Zone because of Archer.

[cobl04]

two questions.

1. can someone please do me the kind favour of sending me the uncut version of Protect Ya Neck. thefonz_29@hotmail.com
2. I am desperately, pathetically in love with Float On. which album should i get? That one? Good News etc etc etc?

 

[lazarus]

Incidentally I just had a bit of a look at Aleks... she's not that hot. Cute, sure. Hot? No.

You will pay dearly for your insolence.

Also, I found most of these from this site:

Apparently someone else feels VERY strongly about her.

 

[cobl04]

I stand by what I said. Doesn't mean I still wouldn't want to Fall Asleep In her, though.

I do love those lyrics to Heat Rash though.

 

[Imperor]

Aleks is a very attractive girl, much more so in person, but Harriet is a stunner.

I'm afraid I'm going to stop liking Abducted because I've listened to it so much.

Absolutely cannot wait to see them two weeks from Friday. It'll be the first set I catch for the festival.

 

[lazarus]

I stand by what I said.

Sweet dreams, sweet cheeks.

 

[cobl04]

Harriet is a stunner.

Again, trawling through google images, I'm not very impressed. But what do I know, I think Jennifer Love-Hewitt is the hottest woman on the planet.

Sweet dreams, sweet cheeks.

Drop it, doe eyes.

 

[PhilsFan]

This is exactly why you have no say.

 

[Imperor]

But what do I know, I think Jennifer Love-Hewitt is the hottest woman on the planet.

Check. Mate.

The Sea Is A Great Place To Think About How Wrong You Are, Cobbler.

 

[cobl04]

I didn't watch Garfield like five times because I thought it was a good movie.

 

[Imperor]

There's this 7" I really want, a double A side with the Nash's "So Far Around the Bend" and Dirty Proj's "Knotty Pine." A copy finally went up for sale on Discogs after months and months of me waiting, but it comes out to £13.50, which would be about $22 for me.

So talk me into or out of it.

 

[martha]

If I can buy a bunch more damn books today, you can spend a few on music you really want.

I would pay that for a collector's item that I really wanted.

 

[Imperor]

Yeah, I'm thinking I should do it, but I also have no clue how limited that particular release was. Maybe I can Laz the dude down to £11 or so if I can do some research on it. It's quite a bit for a 7", but my National collection seems incomplete without it given how much I adore the song. And I also love "Knotty Pine," for what it's worth.

 

[cobl04]

Buy the fuck out of it. I'd be filthy rich if I hadn't bought all the CDs, DVDs and vinyls I have. As it stands, I've got a grand to my name, and no savings. I don't regret buying 95% of them.

 

[Imperor]

I'm with you on that. I actually went through my bank statements and realized I'm averaging about $180 a month on records, a number that definitely needs to go down if I make this NYC thing happen. But again, this might be too good of an opportunity.

Oh yeah, I decided on NYC. Thanks for the input, all.

 

[corianderstem]

Exciting! When is this all happening?

 

[cobl04]

I've still not listened to most of my records... but I don't regret buying them cos they look so goddam good. Embryonic and ATLiens in particular.

 

[Imperor]

Oh I don't regret it at all. I knew what I was getting into when it became a hobby.

Exciting! When is this all happening?

When I find a job. Been dusting applications and resumes all over Manhattan and Brooklyn.

I also just saw that there are only 750 copies of that 7". I'm getting it.

 

[corianderstem]

A job. Oh yeah. One of those.

Good luck. Crossables crossed that this works out for you.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Say hi to Blair Waldorf for me, imps.

 

[Imperor]

I'll take Serena and save Blair for you.

And sorry, but I had to IMDB for that.

 

[iron yuppie]

When I find a job.

What is your field, if you don't mind me asking?

Also, I spend well over $100 a month on music. I should bring it down a little, but going music hunting at the used stores is easily my favorite hobby.
