Oof...

...um, yes...yes, the fact you are now wearing those pants and those shoes would be, in my opinion, quite ironic.

"There's nothing ironic about being stuck in a traffic jam when you're late for something. Unless you're a town planner. If you were a town planner and you were on your way to a seminar of town planners at which you were giving a talk on how you solved the problem of traffic congestion in your area, couldn't get to it because you were stuck in a traffic jam, that'd be well ironic."

"Rain on your wedding day is ironic only if marrying a weatherman and he set the date."

"A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break, that's inconsiderate office management. A no-smoking sign in a cigarette factory - irony."

"Ten thousand spoons? How big is your sink, Alanis? What do you need this knife for - to stab the bloke who keeps leaving spoons all over your house?"

Please follow THIS LINK for a fantastic interview with the brilliant and talented Rob Arroll who manages to put into perspective the incredible dynamic bands of the era possessed which made this time period historic both on the local and national level.

"How many bands can say they’ve been covered by The Replacements, toured with Husker Du and were the first to know of their break-up, or currently have a song featured in a Cadillac commercial? Talk to a member of The Vertebrats, The Bowery Boys or Hum and you’ll get an idea of how C-U bands have been and still are appreciated on a national level."

"I seriously doubt current students could conceive that The Replacements, Nirvana, Dinosaur, Jr., and countless other amazing bands once played over their heads (at Trito's Uptown on Sixth & Green) as they walk down Green Street."

The Long Road to May . . .

Corndolly’s recent practices have best been described as “fierce.” From the look of the new kit Angie Heaton will debut at The High Dive on Sunday, I think the reports are selling them short.

Sex Kitten, indeed!

We're Going To Go Ahead and Say, "Sunset"...

...because, like, it kinda feels like if we don't we are going to be on the receiving end of a serious ass-kicking.

Angie Heaton threatened to further kick our asses if we did not post a link to www.Parasol.com

"Did you hear Don Gerard tried to do some crazy jump and fell down and broke his hip?"

"Actually, at that age typically it is the case the person's hip breaks first and then they fall."

Fatboy Slim is F#$%ing in Heaven

Norman Cook has retired his nom d’plume Fatboy Slim, a moniker he’s recorded under since 1997.

[editor's note: In all honesty, this post is worth skipping . . . it's just that the title's been burning a hole in my pocket and needed to be spent. That is all.]
