>> Monday, February 23, 2009 – music, rock and roll, rush, what you're doing

When you can't think of anything to say, substitute music! And there is nothing better than some 1970's screeching from Geddy Lee and the boys of RUSH.

I shall add the lyrics solely because they are ironically pertinent for today's clime.

What You're Doing by Rush

Well, I see you standin' there
With your finger in the air
Everything we do, you wanna leave it up to you

Who do you think you are?
You think you are a star?
Tryin' to run the town
Always tryin' to put us down

Well, you think that you're right
You think you're out of sight
Tell me something, mister
Why'd you have to make us so uptight?

Well, you say you've been tryin'
You know that you're lyin'
I think you need some groovin'
Who do you think you're foolin', now?

Well, you better start changin'
Your life needs rearrangin'
You better do some talkin'
Or you better do some walkin' now

Yeah, you think that you're right
You think you're out of sight
Tell me something, mister
Why'd you have to make us so uptight?

I know what you're doing
All that you been doin' wrong
I don't know what you're feelin'
Oh, but you been feelin' long

Well, you think that you're right
Tell me something, mister
Why'd you have to make us so uptight?

. . .is brought to you by Lemmy. Hi assholes!! (saw that inscription on Lemmy's bass guitar in a Hard Rock Cafe once)

And while I'm at it, King Diamond says hello too. But his message emanates from the burning crypts of hell.

Fucking King Diamond! Yeah baby! Man, what I'd pay to be 16 years old again. Wait? What the hell am I saying? Must be Satan talking.

And for you drummers out there, Mikkey Dee, former thunder god for King Diamond killing a defenseless set of drums while playing for. . .ta da! Yes, you guessed it, MOTORHEAD!!!

>> Saturday, October 25, 2008 – dogman, king's x, music, rock and roll

I'm taking a short break from shredding Obama to pieces on his social policies in order to show a different sort of shredding. This of the guitar variety.

Here is Ty Tabor ripping one of the best hard rock guitar riffs evah from an old clip of King's X appearing on the John Stewart Show many a year ago.

Would You Invite This Man Over For Dinner??

>> Wednesday, July 30, 2008 – awesome, rock and roll, sober, tool

The man in the pink pajama is Maynard James Keenan from the rock band Tool, a personal favorite.

The man in the video below is Maynard putting the kibosh of some dufus who decides to jump on stage with him.

A lesson in humility and a heavy price for about a minute-thirty of fame.
