The other day some pictures of ninebullets.net stickers that made it to Vegas tickled me pink. I mailed out a bunch, but getting some pictures of them was a first. I must admit, I'm digging it. It would be cool if I could make it like a Roy Army type gimmick. I wonder if I could get a picture of one in all 50 states. Florida and Nevada down. Going to Georgia next week. If you wanna take part in the 9b.net guerrilla stickering campaign, send me an email and I'll send you a few stickers, [...]

Well. At long last. Presented here for your amusement, befuddlement, irritation, or resentment: the first installment in The Big Rock Candy Mountain Top 100 Drinking Songs. The list was voted on by myself and a jury of your peers, and they did a damn fine job. Please extend a hearty toast to Kip, Kyle, Sean, Andy, and the Right Reverend Frost. Whenever some magazine or another put out some
I got an email from someone asking about Urgh! and I thought that in an effort to make things a bit more streamlined and easy to navigate, Id make this post which includes every single song from the Urgh! soundtrack as well as some bonus ones. I'm not the most organized person in the world, and it shows in the haphazard nature in which these tracks were originally put up. I hope this makes things a little easier for everyone. And if anyone is still looking for the long-deleted Urgh! Yahoo! Group (wow [...]
I was a bit of a late bloomer when it came to my introduction and subsequent love affair with punk rock. I was in my late teens, and at that time, my musical tastes leaned towards Top 40 and rap. I was a child of the 80's and I worshipped a lot of the New Wave music of that era, as well as what is now known as old school rap. One of my best friends was a punk aficionado and after months of trying, he finally got me to cave in and listen to some tracks by bands such [...]

Some scientific types have done research on the drugs we all love. What they discovered is that alcohol and is worse for you then acid and ecstasy. They assigned degrees of harm to each drug tested and my good friend booze was pretty high on the chart apparently.

'When you grow up, son, what do you want to be?' 'Well, God, I've thought about it quite a bit and what I'd really like to be is the lead singer of a really cool band.' 'Really, son. You mean a global superstar like, say, Elton John?' 'Fuck's sake, God, he's not cool, he's a waddling great tranny who has contributed the grand total of two parts of fuck all to the world of music for the best part of thirty years.' 'Come on, some of his earlier stuff was okay.' 'Well, the old soldier song was nice. [...]
The 80s gave birth to a lot of dark natured songs. This episode is mostly a celebration of such music. Again I've been plagued with bands crossing over decades – mainly The Pixies – however I've battled through to create a nice, well-rounded and downright fantastical episode. By dark, my general meaning is lyrically, talking of sex, drugs and death in a slightly less positive tone than days gone by. This music is the morning-after of the pop, rock and punk that it followed. This of course doesn't stop it from being some of the best music around and to [...]

Well, the truth is I don't really have any choice. I'm off to Las Vegas this weekend, so heaven will have to wait. Of course there are those who equate Las Vegas with heaven, but I cannot count myself amongst them. I have never visited Vegas and, truth be told, it would not even bother the nether end of my "100 Places To Go Before I Die" list. Indeed, the only reason I'm going is to attend a work-related conference (if any of you do locate a Las Vegas conference calendar, let me assure you that the Credit [...]

I had another post planned for today, but after spending the better part of this morning swearing at the TV, the local paper, and various internet newsfeeds, I decided to work out my anger here instead. What's got me all riled up? The results of the gay marriage vote in the Massachusetts legislature, which means that a constitutional ban on gay marriage in the Commonwealth is one step closer to becoming a reality. The issue will now be voted on in the next legislative session, and should it pass again, it will be decided by ballot [...]

Halloween: the only "holiday" where religious controversy and political beliefs don't get in the way of daily plans. Kids dress up in innocent costumes and eat candy, adults dress up in promisicuous costumes and party hard. Fun stuff, isn't it? Media also plays a big role in Halloween, as music and movies (such as Friday The 13th or Rocky Horror Picture Show) have defined the holiday as a cultural event of creepy movies that make you jump at night. We all know the classic Halloween tunes, the 'Monster Mash's and such that echo in the halls of every elementary school, [...]
Ok, so before I start this series, I know I am going to post songs that some people might not consider punk. Let's say that punk is more of set of ideals than an actual aesthetic. Ok? So stop bitching already and listen up... A : Agent Orange - Bloodstains Adam and the Ants - Beat my Guest B : Bouncing Souls - the Freaks, Nerds and Romantics C : the [...]
:: Well Paid Scientist :: :: Take This Job and Shove It :: :: Dog Bite :: Indulge me for today’s post as I go on a rant and a tirade, whilst providing you the soundtrack to my day. I rolled into the office parking lot this morning with the same mixture of dread, disgust and foreboding that always floods my senses as I arrive at my job each day. These feelings are accented with hints of

Well, mission was accomplished and I posted some of those tracks here previously... for more info & tracks etc. see my posts : Urgh! and one I did after the film's co-producer Ian Copeland passed away in May RIP Ian Copeland well today [...]

A while ago I posted the entire Urgh! soundtrack. I know people sell bootlegs of that soundtrack for insane amounts on eBay and shit, so those MP3s will only go away if I get a cease and desist letter. Go get them if you want them. Also, in case you are wondering, I got that amazingly bizarre scan from this amazingly bizarre site ) Side One (One More Song from Side One) Side Two Side Three Side Four [...]

During the next week, Water All Around will be sitting idle â€" as will I (though in my case it will involve well-reclined pool chair). So as I’m off imbibing an alarming number of umbrella-topped fruity drinks with sword-speared cherries, you can dream of your next holiday with these: [MP3] Elvis Costello â€" The Beat [MP3] Cruiserweight â€" Vacation/Vacate [MP3] Dead Kennedys â€" Holiday in Cambodia [MP3] Fountains of Wayne â€" Trains and Boats [...]
