Interference Random Music Talk Part XIX: The One without a Clever Title

[LemonMelon]

Space Moon as aforementioned had much tension...then it eased as we all rocked the fuck out on it. You can't build a moon on a hill without a little tension now and then. But here we are.

Space Moon. And now, I leave for tonight. If there is enough interest as aforementioned...we'll rock the fuck out again soon.

I, for one, am interested in rocking the fuck out.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Fuck space moon.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

I guess you fucked it up this time
Left yourself in your war path
Lost your balance on a tight rope
Lost your mind trying to get it back

Wasn’t it easier in your lunchbox days?
Always a bigger bed to crawl into
Wasn’t it beautiful when you believed in everything,
And everybody believed in you?

It’s alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Who you are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent

Did some things you can’t speak of
But tonight you live it all again
You wouldn’t be shattered on the floor now
If only you had seen what you know now, then

Wasn’t it easier in your firefly catching days?
When everything out of reach,
someone bigger brought down for you

Wasn’t it beautiful running wild ’til you fell asleep?
Before the monsters caught up to you

It’s alright, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Who you are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent

It’s okay, life is a tough crowd
32 and still growing up now
Who you are is not what you did

Time turns flames to embers
You’ll have new Septembers
Everyone of us has fucked up too

Minds change like the weather
I hope you remember
Today is never too late to be brand new

Your string of lights is still bright to me
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Your string of lights is still bright to me, oh

Lost your balance on a tight rope
It’s never too late to get it back

that was a fairly epic 13 pages.

i never did space moon (one can use it as a verb, yes?) but i like sharing music.

There's a Dismemberment Plan thread on front page that LeMeL has already responded to. Friggin' Cobbler. Random thread fails again.

I'd never heard of that, either. I know Elvis Costello had his own Racist Moment back in the 70s (?), although I think his was some drunken tirade in a bar and not in front of a whole audience of horrified people.

didn't Bowie turn into a pseudo-fascist when he was coked up to his eyeballs?

 

[cobl04]

also, check out this lineup for a festival in Feb:

good vibes 2011, with the artists i'm excited about taking precedence
Phoenix
Cee-Lo Green
Nas (and Damian Marley ?)
Ludacris
Kelis
Friendly Fires
Janelle Monae

and others.

sadly, it looks like no one wants to come with me, which means i may miss out. y'all did indeed convince me to go to shows solo, but the 2 will play a setlist constructed entirely by laz before i go to a festival on my lonesome.

"friggin' cobbler"

 

[martha]

I have no fucking idea what's going on in this thread

Me neither.

Would it make more sense if I posted a photo of a musician with a dick mask?

Dan, wow, you made me laugh out loud for real.

I did too.

tsk. Just fucking go.

 

[If you shout...]

Laz, did you see Thee Oh Sees at Fuck Yeah Fest Festival? GAF, if you wanna see a great show, tonight, head over to Lincoln Hall. Great live band.

 

[iron yuppie]

Janelle Monae

The ArchAndroid is really a great album. This woman has a tremendous voice.

And I'm still trying to understand how Mountain Dew became a sustained topic of discussion in the those last ten or so pages.

Band Name Costs New Pornographers a Gig in Michigan
By DAVE ITZKOFF

Matador Records
The cover of “Together,” an album released earlier this year by the New Pornographers.
When the members of the New Pornographers chose their band name, they probably took it for granted that most listeners would understand they produced bouncy guitar- and synthesizer-driven indie rock for a living, and nothing more salacious than that. But the joke did not play well at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Mich., which has canceled a planned concert by the New Pornographers on the basis of the group’s name, The Grand Rapids Press reported.

Calvin College, which describes itself on its Web site as a Christian liberal arts school, said in a statement that a performance by the New Pornographers scheduled for Oct. 15 was canceled because, “after weeks of discussion and consideration, the irony of the band’s name was impossible to explain to many.”

The statement continued, “The band’s name, to some, is mistakenly associated with pornography. Consequently, Calvin, to some, was mistakenly associated with pornography. Neither the college nor the band endorses pornography.”

Ken Heffner, a student activities director at Calvin College, told The Grand Rapids Press the cancellation was a “peaceful parting of ways” between the school and the band.

A press representative for the New Pornographers declined to comment further. But Carl Newman, a founding member and front man of the band, has said in interviews that the band’s name is derived from the Japanese movie “The Pornographers” (also known as “The Amorists”) and a song, also called “The Pornographers,” by his band mate Dan Bejar.

I thought these things only happened in Utah.

I will use caps for emphasis, not because I'm yelling, although I do find your line of reasoning incredibly annoying.

JUST FUCKING GO! IF ANYTHING, FESTIVALS ARE THE IDEAL PLACE TO GO BY YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU CAN GO SEE WHO YOU LIKE AND NOT HAVE TO CONSIDER WHAT SOMEONE ELSE WANTS.

YOU'RE DEPRIVING YOURSELF OF A FUN DAY. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO SEE A LINEUP LIKE THIS AGAIN? IT'S NOT LIKE THESE FESTIVALS HAPPEN EVERY DAY.

Melodramatic Tay-Tay Swift lyrics

I'm sorry ... remind me again. Did Kanye act rude and interrupt her, or did he beat her up, kick her grandmother and kill her dog? Because from that song, it sounds like he did something awfully serious.

My god, I hope this shit is done.

[Diemen]

Melodramatic Tay-Tay Swift lyrics

Heh. Nice.

Since Kanye was so over the top, it's only fair to give Taylor the chance to do the same, right?

 

[LemonMelon]

They need to get a more private room than the VMAs.

 

[lazarus]

"friggin' cobbler"

QFT.

Laz, did you see Thee Oh Sees at Fuck Yeah Fest Festival?

Nope. I think they may have played too early.

Don't pay any attention to it if it bothers you so much.

My god.

Talk about melodramatic. This is the Cori calling the kettle black.

 

[Canadiens1131]

The Moon
La lune
In another language

Why are you so full?
All the time for me?

I watch you cycle
While I cycle

Life is meaningful when I am under your radiance
Your musical taste

The moon I trust
Trust the most
The Space Lune
Rhymes with loon

I'd pay a loonie for the moon
Or a toonie for the moon
y

Bonne nuit
Mon amour
I love you forever

Full and golden

I have incurred The Wrath of The GAF.

Rehearsal news:

Spoiler

Birdie With the Spinning Head?!

Not bad news, but HUH?

 

[corianderstem]

Nooooooooo waaaaaay. Really? Get outta here. Really?

 

[Jive Turkey]

I can only guess that they're reading Interference and are trying their hardest to make us happy

 

[Dalton]

Dragons appear
From the Foggy Mountain
Fire bellows deep!
Wings spread wide
They answer the call
Of the Dwarves in their KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!

Gnomes burn as they run for cover
Gnomes burn as they run for cover
Gnomes burn as they run for cover.

This is still a 'Fence highlight for me. Brilliant.

 

[corianderstem]

I can only guess that they're reading Interference and are trying their hardest to make us happy

If that's the case, then they must be crying themselves to sleep at night out of frustration after they all read the responses.

"We played Mercy and they still aren't happy..... woe."

 

[lazarus]

If they were a band like Pearl Jam who often played b-sides along with a lot of lesser-known album tracks this wouldn't be such a big deal. But it's strange that the band is ignoring Poppycock and Cockropa and then potentially digging out something like this.

It's cool, but you know, it's not going to replace any of the songs that SHOULD be getting rotated out.

 

[Dalton]

I'm actually pissed they're not playing Unknown Cock (an ode to Lance's Mom") anymore. I thought that was one of their best live songs when I saw them.

 

[Dalton]

Why didn't PJ ever get cockified? Cause "Cock Jam" is all kinds of awesome.

 

[lazarus]

I think they did back in the day, but it was Penile Jam.

I loved their second album Scratches
