"The Flower of Gower Gulch"

A pretty for the first dwellar to name the artiste. Bonus points for the episode.

"She's the flower of Gower Gulch,
A cowpuncher's sweetheart true,

And her looks don't amount to much,
'Cause one of her eyes is blue.

She's got skin just like prairie dog leather,
Cooks nuthin' but chuckwagon stew.

And her name is Minerva Utch,
She's the flower of Gower Gulch."

Porky Pig in "Drip Along Daffy."

BigV 06-20-2005 12:35 AM

*thunderous applause*

Here's your pretty.

did you need the lyrics? just curious.

elSicomoro 06-20-2005 12:39 AM

I remembered the song, but couldn't remember the name of the short itself, so I had to Google that part.

Via Chicago


I dreamed about killing you again last night
And it felt alright to me
Dying on the banks of Embarcadero skies
I sat and watched you bleed

Buried you alive in a fireworks display
Raining down on me
Your cold, hot blood
Ran away from me to the sea

I printed my name on the back of a leaf
And I watched it float away
The hope I had in a notebook full of white dry pages
Was all I tried to save

But the wind blew me back via Chicago
In the middle of the night
And not without fight
At the crush of veils and starlight

I know I'll make it back
One of these days
And turn on your TV
To watch a man with a face like mine
Being chased down a busy street

When he gets caught, I won't get up
And I won't go to sleep
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Via Chicago

Where the cups are cracked and hooked
Above the sink
They make me think
Crumbling ladder tears don't fall
They shine down your shoulders

And crawling is screw faster lash
I blow it with kisses
I rest my head on a pillowy star
And a cracked-door moon
That says I haven't gone too far

I'm coming home
I'm coming home
I'm coming home
Via Chicago

Coming home
Coming home
Coming home

Searching for a home
Searching for a home
Searching for a home
Via Chicago

I'm coming home
I'm coming home

My main mode at the computer is to "give chance a chance". I found that slogan rather clever (which doesn't take much, honestly).

Last 5 songs:
At Last -- Etta James
For My Lover -- Tracy Chapman
The House Is Rocking -- Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Trouble
Behind the Wall -- Tracy Chapman
Person to Person -- Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson

Hope & Suicide - Razor Blade Smile
Bloodlet - Entheogen - one of the greatest albums for listening to creative, groove oriented metal and alternate time signatures.
Mixed Jazz & Blues cd - Miles Davis, Coltrane, and Muddy Waters so far today.

CW McCall's Greatest Hits
Some damn album by Clannad (doesn't matter which one, they all sound the same)

elSicomoro 06-22-2005 06:26 PM

Coldplay - all 3 studio CDs

superbaton 06-22-2005 07:48 PM

Fugazi - the argument

Fugazi have made a career out of crafting excellent albums, and with The Argument, they've made one of their best. At this point, I don't see it edging out Red Medicine or 13 Songs from the top of my Fugazi album hierarchy, but it's certainly a worthy entry into their catalog, and proves that they're still one of the most important bands in the world.

lookout123 06-22-2005 08:17 PM

you know, i've always enjoyed fugazi to an extent, but now i think they are the paris hilton of indie music. they are important because they are important. mckay was one of the first recognizeable voices promoting the straightedge, and discord has been crucial throughout the years, but Fugazi as a band is at times overhyped. IMO.

my personal favorite fugazi album is still in on the kill taker .

elSicomoro 06-22-2005 08:40 PM

I think I'll go with Red Medicine.

Listened to Billy Corgan's new solo CD last night...not that impressed. I hope he puts the original Pumpkins back together...and that they rock the fuck out again.

BigV 06-22-2005 08:49 PM

From me to you, Syc.

superbaton 06-22-2005 08:57 PM

what you say is absolutely true, but i believe the band's instrumental talents can't be argued. (of course, in my opinion too) :)

We'll see...

Clodfobble 06-22-2005 09:19 PM

Isn't he schizophrenic?

elSicomoro 06-22-2005 09:21 PM

Apparently, he suffers from severe depression, but not schizophrenia.

Billy Corgan's ad that appeared in Chicago newspapers Tuesday.

footfootfoot 06-22-2005 11:44 PM

Right this second I'm listening to Allman Bros. Dreams.

'cause I've a hunger for dreams I'll never see

I think.

BigV 06-23-2005 10:50 AM

NPR, Morning Edition

elSicomoro 06-23-2005 10:55 AM

I haven't listened to talk radio much since being on disability, though I actually listened to some of All Things Considered and Sean Hannity the other day.

BigV 06-23-2005 11:25 AM

There's a balanced diet

elSicomoro 06-23-2005 12:25 PM

When I was working, I would alternate between right-wing talk radio, NPR, CBC and BBC World Service. I'll have to see what opportunities I have at my next job, though...those days might be over.

footfootfoot 06-23-2005 08:36 PM

FWIW,
npr's head honcho is Kevin Close, the former director of radio free europe. That might explain why npr seems more like the propaganda arm of corporate America than it did in the 80's.

Then again, I don't watch TV or buy much stuff so everything sounds like an advertisement to me.

BigV 06-23-2005 09:23 PM

The fans in the server room, competing with the buzz from the fluorescent lights. The occasional click click from the keyboard...

Wailing Souls- This is the unidentified reggae band that your stoner buddy always slid under the needle at 2:30am.

AllofMP3.com is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Well, April edges it, but it's still pretty fucking awesome.

lookout123 07-14-2005 05:37 PM

sycamore i actually thought you were cool. right up to the admission of listening to green day. without a gun to your head. :headshake

they are to punk what kenny g is to jazz.

elSicomoro 07-14-2005 05:38 PM

I like Green Day...they're not totally punk, but punk enough to be legit.

lookout123 07-14-2005 05:41 PM

my soul weeps for those that put punk and green day in the same sentence. now i've done it. now i must weep for myself. :cry:


i suggest that you put yourself on a steady diet of The Misfits, The Exploited, Subhumans, GBH, Minor Threat, Crashdog, Gorilla Biscuits, Calabrese, The New Thrills, 7 Seconds, Resurrection Mary, Buttlint, Bomb Nevada, and manymanymore and call me when your condition passes. :cool:

elSicomoro 07-14-2005 05:42 PM

I would almost take Green Day over Fugazi, only b/c Ian MacKaye irritates the fuck out of me.

lookout123 07-14-2005 05:49 PM

i don't even consider Fugazi to be punk. and Ian McKaye is a selfimpressed fuckwit. and for the last time He DID NOT "INVENT" STRAIGHTEDGE! he screamed a song. a fairly crummy song. but he said F*ck a lot so now he is a hero to thousands of kids who don't even know who the hell he is or what the Discord house was. :rar:

elSicomoro 07-14-2005 05:51 PM

You feel better now? :)

lookout123 07-14-2005 05:57 PM

sure. i like ranting on the guys that i thought were pusses 15-18 years ago when they are still in the scene and still pusses.

elSicomoro 07-14-2005 06:04 PM

There is a new CD that I just saw at Starbucks this afternoon...Sly and the Family Stone tracks remixed and redone by artists like Moby, The Roots and Black Eyed Peas. That shit has got to be on fire...it's not on Rhapsody or allofmp3.com, so I might actually have to go out and buy it. Hmmm...

BigV 07-14-2005 06:37 PM

Why not just buy the original? Remakes make me gag - get your own tunes - these ones have already been done the way they were supposed to........

bluecuracao 07-14-2005 07:13 PM

At the moment...Get Down Tonight, KC & the Sunshine Band.

Next up...AWB, Pick Up The Pieces.

Gettin' my groove on a Thursday nite.

elSicomoro 07-14-2005 07:36 PM

I already own the originals, Queen. Some remakes/remixes suck, but some do incredible justice to the originals...for example:

--Nirvana's version of the "The Man Who Sold the World" (David Bowie)
--Seal and Jeff Beck's version of "Manic Depression" (Jimi Hendrix)
--Smashing Pumpkins' version of "Never Let Me Down Again" (Depeche Mode)

Guyute 07-14-2005 08:34 PM

Big Wreck- The Oaf;
Next up is Blues Traveler- Felicia

capnhowdy 07-14-2005 09:07 PM

Now that's nostalgic. Me likes, from what I recall.....

elSicomoro 07-15-2005 12:51 AM

I haven't heard any of them, except for the one by the good Reverend, which, as usual, kicks 47 kinds of ass.

elSicomoro 07-19-2005 10:54 AM

Bought that Sly and the Family Stone CD yesterday...holy shit does it kick ass. My favorite tracks are probably "I Want to Take You Higher" with will.i.am from Black Eyed Peas and "I Want to Take You Higher" with Steven Tyler from Aerosmith and Robert Randolph.

You can listen to samples of each track here.

Losa

elSicomoro 07-19-2005 11:32 AM

I'm sorry that you're a loser, Lookout.

lookout123 07-19-2005 11:43 AM

nyuk nyuk nyuk.

but seriously, don't most posts generally refer to the previous poster? because then i would be referring to someone else as a loser...who could that have been?

actually Losa is an extremely tight noisecore outfit from Austin,TX.

elSicomoro 07-19-2005 06:54 PM

I already know I'm a loser. And given that you're from the retarded part of Illinois, well...it ain't much of a stretch with you.

--Common: Electric Circus
--Alanis Morissette: Jagged Little Pill Acoustic
