HM for John Stewart and Stevie for "Gold".  But WlyricOS for "My buddy Jim Bass, he's-a working pumping gas".  Silly.


Last-minute change b/c Bill Blass threatened to sue.

As for the tig bitties -- a running gag spawned by discussion of Scarlett Johannson's Golden Globes.

Ahh, I see.  Missed that one.  Is that in addition to discussing Drew Barrymore's assets?

No, it's just because I am fixated on Scarlett.

Oh to have been in Billy Bob's seat when they shot that scene in The Man Who Wasn't There.

After seeing Match Point I'm pretty much fixated on her too.  I need to see The Man Who Wasn't There.

BOS2 to "Re-Light My Fire," though the LOOONG version might not have been necessary.  I have the Lulu + Take That cover (#1 UK) in my collection here.

BOS3 "Relight My Fire" -- who's the vocalist? it's not Mr Hartman, is it? Doing a passable MJ imitation, whoever it is.

Didn't do a thing for me, but I like the contrast with the minimalist Joe Jackson.

VHM JJ.  3 fine sets, 3 days in a row -- maybe Dave's started taking Geritol. :wink:

BOS 1, "Relight My Fire," oddly enough, considering how I usually react to disco.  But it got me going.

BOS 2, Joe.  

they say that looks don't count for much
yeah, so there goes your proof

BOS for "Moods for Moderns".  Pretty good groove for an angry young geek.
Good competition for BOS today.

I have to give a VHM to Supertramp, which was an unusually deep cut for Dave to find on that album.

I've attended a lot of music-biz trade shows and conferences, and one of my least favorite things about them is the inevitable use of "_____ Killed the _____ Star" as the title of a panel or talk.  Cliche, unclever, and annoying.

Trouser Press once had a famous cover headline, "Elvis Costello: The New Joe Jackson?"

BOS4 EC, Moods for moderns. Foreign fingers. Memory lingers.

Sadly, I my googling didn't come up with an adequate shot of Meatloaf from Fight Club...
