All right, let's do it!
EDIT: WHY DO THEY KEEP TAKING HIM AWAY FROM ME. Oh well, I hope THESE will stick around for longer than a day.
In celebration of starting weekends avoiding my thesis the right way with Tim "Spinnin'" Schoemer and the B96 Friday Night Dance Party (throooaaah-wiiinnn-dooowwwn):
Do I own that album? Yes. Yes, I do.
I need to party with Dr. Steve. This must happen. Seriously, it's an emergency.
EDIT: Oh nooooooo! I guess I shouldn't have believed it was OK for the entire next show to be up online three days before it airs. It was good while it lasted, though. Instead, here's Dr. Steve fighting ... for your love!
I need more structure and joy in my life (who doesn't?) so I'm going to start posting objects that bring me joy. YOU LOVE IT.
There are few objects in this world that bring me more joy than Les Desmoiselles de Rochefort, or as they say in America, The Young Girls of Rochefort. I wish this movie was a documentary about my life. I still remember sitting in a screening with all these smug assholes snickering (snickering! I mean really) because they didn't have the STONES to face the magnificence of ecstatic zazz without getting all defensive about it. Man, F those people. Anyway, here's a wake-up call to awesome in the form of the trailer. Subtitles? Shut up, you don't need 'em!
Dude, when I looked this up I found a BONUS object of joy, which is, holy shit, Patrick Juvet (!) and Amanda F-ing Lear (!!!) performing the signature "La chanson des jumelles"--oh my God, my brain just melted.
That was a more progressive time, 1979. In France. Ah heck, we need some bonus Amanda mugging with D.B. during "The 1980 Floor Show":
Aww, that's love! And when the song was over, they all snorted the set. Finally "Queen of Chinatown," in which she tells a story in song ... and hand gestures!
I like that one a lot. She sounds like Al Stewart. I feel happier now, don't you?
When I see something like this, I think maybe I shouldn't be so down on this season after all:
Gettin' it! RROWR! Apparently he's kinda back to being all feisty and awesome, and not just in my personal sense which is blind to all fact, evidence and reality. Now maybe if we got more than like five televised games here I'd know better.
