I’m more a fan of the movie Death Proof than the song. Hey, Quentin Tarantino makes good movies in my opinion…
Why the song Down In Mexico by The Coasters? So I could share video footage of Vanessa Ferlito performing a sexy lap dance–why else? Check out her website if you like what you see.
A special thanks to the lady who has my errant mind wandering about in this general direction this morning. This Song Of The Day is for you.
Nothing like some old-school hardcore from NYC to get the blood pumping. One of my favorite bands, kicking out some slamming riffs with more energy than ten pep squads drowning in Red Bull. It’s also a hell of a lot of fun, this song.
Check out the Sick Of It All website and get acquainted with the band if you aren’t already. For two decades these guys have been at it, and they own the term hardcore.
And if you’re one of those silly people who is even dreaming about posting some stupid comment about the pits of today versus the ones of yesteryear or some such nonsense, forget it. If people aren’t getting knocked out by Jack Daniels bottles (You gotta admit, John—that was kinda funny!) and bodies aren’t flying about in your pits because you think such people are “ruining the art of pitting” or some other ridiculously lame sentiment, go whine to your Emo therapist at your Emo-core therapy group.
Todays song is Open Your Eyes by Guano Apes. I used to set this song as the first in my playlist to wake me up in the morning (another good reason to have a Linux desktop), though I rotate songs through these days.
Sandra Nasic (who is Croatian and German) was a powerful vocalist and draped their songs with emotion—as well as in-your-face attitude. She is also incredibly sexy.
The German band truly rocked and I am saddened that they split up and went their separate ways. Still, the members have moved on with other projects and I hope they find as much success and have as much as they did in Guano Apes.
Great song by a great band that I have enjoyed since the ’80s. Billy Duffy is one of the best guitarists/songwriters in the world of rock. Ian Astbury is the nearest thing to Jim Morrison going. I picked this one because I had to rise early this morning.
You know, this video just makes you think about the movie American Pie and “This one time, at band camp…” The song is now called Destination Calabria, after having started out as a track named Destination Unknown (not sure why the name change, but hey, strange stuff happens with dance music) in 2003. It features singer Crystal Waters.
If this doesn’t get a man’s blood pumping, he’s probably a corpse.
For absolutely no good reason that I know of, I decided finally that I will keep this blog going despite the horrible new dashboard brought about with WordPress 2.5. I figure, why waste the hard work I’ve put into it? I don’t want to disenfranchise any readers out there either.
What better way to blow off the poor usability that WordPress.com users are now forced to endure, by saying “Whatever” and just continuing on? So, to celebrate continuing the blog, I thought that a song by one of my favorite bands, The Bastard Fairies, would be perfectly appropriate.
Then, I decided, since I love music so much, why not just start sharing some of the cool bands and music I like with readers? Never hurts to expand one’s horizons, after all. So, a new regular feature is born.
Enjoy…
[Note: I decided to continue developing and running one of my websites off WordPress just to stay abreast of the platform since I invested so much time in it over the past year. However, I will also be changing other sites that were in the works over to other, more robust Content Management Systems.]
