i am still having a hard time dealing with the recent booting off of sam on bret michaels rock of love. sure, she had a seemingly endless amount of trust issues, was white as a bob barker’s hair and had that funky gap tooth but she was cute as hell. meh, he doesnt deserve her anyway. i am sure he will end up picking heather the 32 going on 52 year old. she’s dang nasty in every conceivable definition of the word. i wouldnt even fuck her with your dick.
anyone seen once yet? i hear that its supposed to be quite wonderful.
btw, if you werent aware, senor jobs is announcing a slew of ipod stuff today, actually like right now. he’s already announced a new widescreen nano. check engadget for developing details.
i have to admit, atlanta’s gringo star’s name really annoys me. the music’s good, the name not so much. so the quandry that lays ahead of me is how can i respect a band’s music if i dont respect the name that they have chosen to share with the world? it reminds me of a high fidelity type question. anyway, like i said their music is pretty damn good and really thats all that matters. even if i have a hard time letting name roll off my tounge without grimacing, but i digress. if you are a lover of 60’s era kinks, or that oozie pop goodness that only big star can provide then the southern gentlemen of gringo star should put you into some kinda saccharin, with a splash of whiskey, induced haze
their self titled debut record is out now, i believe

sticking with my issue with band names, chicago’s head of femur gets the award for most misleading. to me, head of femur sounds like a name reserved for goth or death metal band. throw in “bloody” or “black” in front of their name and there you have it! i dont want to mislead cause i actually dig their name. what about the music you ask? im gettin there, dont rush me. they are actually kinda hard to describe, intelligently. the title track off their upcoming leader and the falcon ep, due on 10.2, starts off with a springsteen-esque tickling of the ivories then they break into e6 inspired harmonies - thats all within the first 10 seconds. from there its just good ol’ smart pop that will definitely illude the masses. call me absolutely crazy, but one thing i keep hearing throughout is the escape club’s “wild, wild west.” am i the only one?
they are doing a short tour. make sure to check their myspace page for dates.

i dont give enough damn love to matthew sweet thats for sure. he singlehandedly changed the way i look/listen to pop music with the release of the classic girlfriend and the often misunderstood, but no less brilliant altered beast. here are the demos to the latter; a set commonly referred to as superdeformed.
