The Hairy Ape

May 22, 2011, 12:07am Geezer Music Club
We haven't had one of those slideshow things for a while, so I thought I'd do one today. As a subject I've picked something near and dear to me - whiskers. Although I've been relatively clean-shaven for the last few years, for most of my adult life I've had a full beard. (I say 'relatively' clean-shaven because I usually have a couple of days of stubble - sort of like the chimp in the picture on the left side.) Anyhow, I've always felt a kinship with guys who are proud of their whiskers, so what better [...]

Morning Buzz: Black Eyed Peas, Flaming Lips, Jeff Goldblum

Apr 22, 2011, 7:54am BUZZGRINDER
:: First those damn Black Eyed Peas ruined music. Then they ruined the Super Bowl. Now they're ruining school . :: The National is curating another album for charity. This time, it's... wait for it... a Grateful Dead cover album. "It's not going to be like jam bands cover the Dead ," bassist Scott Devendorf admitted. "We're also trying to think of unusual [acts]." Hmm, like Weird Al or Ray Stevens ? I sure hope so. :: We're finally getting a new Toxic [...]

Messages From Animals

Nov 2, 2010, 12:25am Geezer Music Club
Messages From Animals Although I understand that the critters in the pictures below aren't really responsible for the messages, there's not much doubt that many animals do communicate. I'm reminded of the squirrels that sometimes cavort around when I'm taking a walk in a nearby parkland. (Actually it's a park-like cemetery, but I thought that might sound creepy - especially this near to Halloween.) They seem very skittish and seldom stop bouncing along until they're a safe distance from me, but then they start chittering furiously as if they think I'm going to raid their nest and carry away their babies [...]

Top 10 Comedy Songs + watch videos

May 8, 2009, 5:13am Band Weblogs
Top 10 Comedy Songs + watch videos So people keep on nudging me and saying, 'Hey Dave mate, when are you going to put this top ten list of comedy songs up for us then eh?' and I keep on fobbing them off, telling them I'm busy and they keep prodding me and telling me that I'm not, and shouting at me in my sleep. So, just to keep the imaginary people in my head quiet, I've now compiled this chart. A bit like the one at my doctors, but not quite as scary. Top 10 Comedy Songs 1. [...]

Jingle Bells: Santa Claus Is Watching You

Dec 18, 2008, 4:39pm Star Maker Machine
Jingle Bells: Santa Claus Is Watching You Ray Stevens - Santa Claus Is Watching You [ purchase ] I just ain't feeling the holidays this year. Let's see. It's 7 days till Christmas and it's 78 degrees with 80% humidity, everytime I look at the paper another umpteen thousand people are getting laid off and there is not a single Christmas decoration in my house. No tree, no wreath...nothing...and to top it all off, the wife and I decided not to do gifts this year. Why? Cause we bought a puppy last week and decided that little [...]

77 Santas Top Twenty-Seven Christmas Songs—2007

Dec 17, 2007, 6:14pm 77 Santas
It's been a fantastic season with 77 Santas and it's time to close out the season with the list of my favorite songs this year. Last year, I did fifteen songs—I'm upping it by twelve this time around. I've written about many of these already. And I could write a blurb for every song but suffice it to say that they are all personal to me and many are rooted in my childhood memories. It's been a

In The Studio With Rick Rubin And Ray Stevens
I loved Ray Stevens when I was a kid. One year for my birthday—right after second grade—I was given a tape of Ray Stevens' Greatest Hits which featured such classics such as The Streak, Ahab the Arab, Along Came Jones, Gitarzan, and Shriner's Convention. Though the songs had all been recorded in the studio, a laugh track was added in post production—it was similar to watching a sitcom. And now

Those Zany Charts ?

Sep 14, 2007, 5:17pm 100b
Those Zany Charts ? Joey Ramone once said that fun disappeared from music in 1974, so The Ramones reacted against the trend of big heavy self-indulgent prog rock bands that all tried to outdo each other in most complex licks and longest dramatic solos. Since 100b would literally not be if it weren't for the Ramones, all things that helped the birth of the band - even a bad year in music - are in a remote, roundabout way responsible for this here blog as well. Now let's have a peak at the year that sucked the fun out of music and consequently gave [...]

Squirrel Songs

Jul 28, 2006, 12:00am WFMU's Beware of the Blog
Squirrel Songs There are days when I come up with such a fantastic idea for a post here. I'll sit and I'll think about it and tell people about it and then make some notes and think about it some more and do some research. Unfortunately, the longer I spend thinking about the Fantastic Idea and trying to hammer it all out, the more I start to think that it is in fact, not such a Fantastic Idea after all - or the F.I. is such a meaty bone (as Scott says), that I really need to put [...]
