Random Music Thread LXXII: National Lampoon's Bogan Vacation

[the tourist]

I actually enjoy the stereo versions of the recent remasters. Certainly could have ended up far worse, I pretty much can't listen to the stereo remaster of Pet Sounds.

Really? I quite liked the 40th Anniversary stereo remaster of Pet Sounds. But as for The Beatles, I really like the stereo versions. I like them better than their mono counterparts. But it's really interesting to hear the differences in the mixes between the two.

 

[lazarus]

I hate to admit it, but...

I don't get it.

Much to learn still you have.

 

[No spoken words]

Agreed.

Now go home and get your shine box please explain it.

Be glad.

It's not bad, I just don't like it anywhere as much as the original mix. It's one of those few remasters out there where, for whatever reason, I'd much rather hear the original (the Stone Roses remaster from a few years ago bugs me too).

Spotted today: a young woman with a big cross on a ring on her left hand and the words "Fuck Tha Law" tattooed on her right arm.

But I bet you remember giving me shit for leaving a word out of a post in a discussion about the thread from whence that joke came. Must suck to be old.

 

[IWasBored]

I've never run into remasters I've been more disappointed in than the remastered version of stiff little fingers' nobody's heroes. It's hard to make that album anything other than amazing, but they sure as hell tried.

Skinny Love was the most listened to song in Australia this year, according to Spotify's Facebook app.

The Bonny Bear version, not the Birdy abomination.

 

[PhilsFan]

Does anyone know any YouTube to MP3 converter than converts in 320? I used to know one but it doesn't appear to be around anymore.

 

[u2popmofo]

Considering you have a worse case of "grumpy old man" syndrome than anyone else here, you should know.

Hippie.

It really does. I don't even remember giving you shit because it all blends.

 

[PhilsFan]

My, my.

Oh man, he should win Best New Artist at the Grammy's!

Pretty sure this is the one I've used recently:

Get off my lawn!!!

 

[PhilsFan]

Well, that one says the server's full and my virus scanner is going crazy if I try anything involving that add-on so I guess I'm gonna pass on that one.

 

[No spoken words]

Get off my lawn!!!

I don't imagine that you have a lawn, but if you did, I envision it strewn with empty cans of soup and bottles of gin.....maybe a rusted out black and white TV that's become a home for local rodent life. A tan and orange beach chair from 1986 that you stole while in Marblehead as a kid. A discarded Dungeons and Dragons manual and maybe an emaciated mule wandering around aimlessly.

 

[nielsgov]

The hobbit is awesome. That is all.

How are the creatures?

That is some Jean Woolf-calibre writing right there.


Bravo, sir.

Sadly, just the mule.

 

[iron yuppie]

...and maybe an emaciated mule wandering around aimlessly.

Something about the mule works perfectly here. Any other animal would have been out of place.

Ravi Shankar has carked it

Sometimes I really hate you.

I assume he died? Aussie slang makes everything sound like it's dying or shitting itself.

 

[cobl04]

Yes, he's passed away.

This Killer Mike album is pretty damn good. I love the brevity. Don't Die rules.

I asked you this the other but missed the reply, sorry. Where you were for the week you were gone?

I was away on a camp run by young people for young people (all 18-26). I was a participant last year and came back as a leader this year. It's one of my greatest passions, thanks for asking

Awesome. How did it go? Did you enjoy being in a leadership role this time around?
