I haven't been doing the weepy music thing for a long time, so maybe that's part of it.

Soothing!

I love that book!

I think my ex never gave me back my copy!

What a book.

Wait, you don't like The Replacements?  I guess that is fair.  I am pretty into all that music, but never read the book, thanks man!  Double Nickels is in my top ten of albums that never ever get old, with Clouds Taste Metallic and Surfer Rosa being another two (I don't know the others, it isn't an actual list?  Beck- One Foot In The Grave?  Good Bad Not Evil by the Black Lips?  These are just guesses, the other three are solid.)

So for the answer has been because no one will pay me to make my work for sale. However, I am very shortly going to put the second mystery up for sale on Kindle so you can quit your whining.

I want to like Husker Du a lot more, but everything is so treble-y. Landspeed Record is amazing. Esp. that second track.

Husker Du is another band I want to like, but don't. The Replacements on the other hand I love.

I have tried and tried (probably just twice) to like Husker Du.  I cannot either.

I saw some badass punk bands in Brooklyn yesterday and am not sure which was which. But one of them had a kind of Melvins-y off-kilter sludge thing that was KILLING me. When I figure out which band they were I will post here.

Elton is cool. He's not like The Eagles or The Pixies. He never stopped recording new music. Although his show will of course be heavily weighted towards music he recorded 30-40 years ago he might throw a few surprises in there.

This kind of too-complicated thing usually really annoys me but this lady can SING. That is a voice with power. Also digging the drumming. But watching the video and looking at those fuck*ng backup singers with their haircuts is bugging me a lot. Just minimize it and listen to the sick beats.

The Tune-Yards have shown up on the Fluxblog a couple of times. I really like what I've heard so far.

I'm glad she's traded in her loop machine for live singers.

I love listening to someone who can really perform, without all the studio production and autotuning and witchery, regardless of whether I like the genre.  I'm going to go dig up some more of their stuff based on the strength of that clip.

I got the new Spoon album. It is a Spoon album. Which is to say it is very good. But on first listen I don't hear anything especially ground-breaking.

Holy shit, this chapter reminds me how I forgot I knew how great this band was.

There is a band I sure wish I had seen live during their heyday.
