Top of the hour cracker...


junkie cosmonauts? or eurotrash girls?

Junkie cosmonauts.  

Here's Eddie Dayne.  

I saw that PJ20 show on KQED, too.   HuffPo had a good review of it: doesn't dig too deep, not an expose, by a fan for fans, nice archival footage, etc.

I decided I don't dig Eddie's voice that much...  but those guitars are pretty great, esp Mike McCreedy.
Watching a good documentary usually makes me see the band in a different light, but this one didn't do that to me.  I'm still neither here nor there with PJ.  I turned on PBS again last night and they were on Austin City Limits.  I like their energy, but that's about it.  


and as I've said before, half the awful bands of the past 15 years have lead singers doing second-rate Eddie V imitations. Creed, Live, Nickelback, Hoobastank, Nickelstank, Hoobaback...

Especially CREED (though with a supposedly religious twist - yea, right) and NICKELCRACK (they just really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really suck).

the PJ20 doc featured a snippet of that animated Celebrity Death Match b/w Eddie Vedder and the Creed Singer: "Gimme back my voice!" *reaches into Creed Boys mouth and rips out his larynx*.

Heh.  I caught that too!  One of the few songs I recognized from ACL last night was (unfortunately) "Just Breathe".  Lots of sweaty, acoustic finger-picking guitar face going on during that one!

Rad's got AL's number...here's "Regret" right on cue...(good song, though!)

HA!  Concrete Blonde ("Underneath the Mexican Moon"), and a song from Chris Isaak that I'm not familiar with ("Can't Do a Thing (To Stop Me)").

AL fooled y'all?

And oof, ok, Mike Myers doing spoken word poetry. "This poem sucks."  Indeed.

And ok, back to mediocrity:  Duran Duran.

the faux-beatnik poem is from So I Married and Axe Murderer, I think?   I was walking by Wash Sq Park one evening  During the filming and caught a glimpse of Mike Meyers in his trailer.  Woohoo!

gotta split opinions in the Duran Duran.  I diggit.

at least it was "Linger" (or as Alex Bennett used to call it "Do You want to Smell my Finger") -- Rob on The Peak played "Zombie" this morning -- that one makes my head hurt.

I guess she could have also played Meat Loaf's "Objects In The Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are".

I can't think of this movie (I really liked it) without the "There She Goes" song.  I'm guessing it's not from the same year?

I'm doing a new ratings system, based on how "good" (or not) and "necessary" (or not) all the songs are. :D

Good ratings:
A
New Order
Duran Duran
Dinosaur Jr.

B
Stereo MCs
Concrete Blonde

C
Chris Isaak
Cranberries

D
Cracker
Pearl Jam (only because this is one of their more tolerable songs, otherwise it would be a F[/color]
The Breeders

Necessary ratings:
A
Dinosaur Jr.

B
New Order
Concrete Blonde (haven't heard this one in awhile)
Cracker

C
Chris Isaak, I guess
Stereo MC's (Was initially going to give this an F[/color]...but then I had to admit to myself that this song screams 10@10 all over it.  They could still lay off a bit though.

D
The Breeders

F [/color]
Pearl Jam
