Weblog
Of utmost importance, and a PSA
If you haven't discovered Fluxblog, go now, and take in some tunes. Great stuff! The last several entries have made a 1 hour playlist for me that is of notable interest and FUN. In particular, make sure you grab Supa GFK by Ghostface, Pumpkin Soup by Kate Nash, and two tracks from the I'm Not There soundtrack - a disc I'm clearly going to have to pick up.
So anyway... Do it. Now. Really. GO! (AFelus, this means you, especially.)
Which also reminds me... everyone who isn't already, be very aware: the release of I'm Not There was cause for a soundtrack featuring many to lend their voices to Dylan covers, including, say, Cat Power, Sonic Youth, and the honorable Mr. Malkmus. I, not knowing this, was getting on the highway the other day when _Stuck Inside Of Mobile With the Memphis Blues Again" comes on the radio. Except, it's not. Or rather, it is, but it's Cat Power. And I'm sitting there, trying to understand what the hell is going on. During the five critical seconds that it took me to figure it out, I failed to pull across the requisite 3 lanes of traffic necessary to take the "go through campus" part of I35 instead of the "go over campus" version of I35. Oh sure, I figured out an alternate path and got there eventually. No big deal. But still- I was dumbstruck for a good 4-5 seconds, and the consequences for you may be far greater. I don't know WHY it struck me as so strange, but, it did, so now... you've been warned.
YES, that IS Cat Power, on KUT, singing Stuck Inside of Mobile, and it's perfectly normal. Now as you were.
(note: was linking to the improper URL for Fluxblog at time of posting... this has been resolved. Special thanks to A for pointing it out.)
