"I wish I was a punk rocker (with flowers in my hair)" has to be a contender for the worst song ever written.

Here's my list:

Vanilla Ice (so bad even Beavis and Butt-head said nothing to his video).
Metallica after St. Anger
Nickelback (the most boring music I have heard in years).
Michael Jackson (no one buys it anyway)
Lil' Jon (I actually do like rap, but this guy says nothing but OK!)
Jack Johnson (because John Mayer was actually funny on Chapelle's Show)
Ashlee Simpson
Jessica Simpson
Puddle Of Mudd

and if we're counting Radio Talk Show Hosts, I'd like to nominate Dr. Laura, Rush Limbaugh, Howard Eskin, and Opie & Anthony.

Sorry to your goodness. The concert that I witnessed was not genius. It was techno-wanking and crap. I stand my by plug pull.

Any boy/girl band. They are the maggots feeding off the festering corpse that is pop music. Bono after he became God. Van Morrison after he started talking to God (not Bono). Any tonsil tart that thinks hurting my ears with sustained high notes is clever and talented. Please eat your own ears or do a Whitney! And any band that asks me if I'm having a great time. Well I was until you asked, dickhead! Did you think I came to the gig to have a bad time? Shut the fuck up and earn the cost of the overpriced ticket and shite merchandise, bottom burp! Any Big Brother, Pop Idol or X Factor git. Your friends were taking the piss when they said you should go on the show, seriously! Also, stop being positive and believing in yourself, you ARE actually TALENTLESS! And take a look in the mirror before you leave the house. Do you really think we want to SEE you on stage (let alone hear you!) AND pay for the privilege? 10 out of 10 for self delusion.

I'm going to see Les Paul on the 21st of Aug. I thought it would be funny to suggest unplugging the inventor of the electric guitar, nothing against him at all, just my perverse sense of humor...

Where are you seeing Mr. Paul perform? I'm rather terribly envious.

This is a jazz supper club...and Les Paul plays there *every Monday night*?!

Geez. Now I'm depressed. How much for dinner and tickets? Couple hundred bucks, I'd be guessing? And another $30 or $40 for parking?

Nah, $40 bucks to see les paul, a two drink minimum ($20. max), and you can park on the street or you can park under lincoln center, about ten blocks away (1/2 mile) for 10 or 20 bucks. But yeah, you and the missus will knock the stuffing out of a couple of C notes when it's all over.

Maybe I'll sneak my ipod in with a mic...

My brother has recorded gigs (with permission) with a DAT "walkman" and an AKG stereo mic, with very good results - depending on mic placement.
