Name that tune.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:19 (seventeen years ago) link

It's not by Television or the Peechees.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Or Peaches.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:23 (seventeen years ago) link

My first thought was "Glass" by Gang of Four, but then I think that's more like

Deep deep deep deep deep-a-doo-doo.

jaymc, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:25 (seventeen years ago) link

"Deep Doodoo" by the Shit Shovelers

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:26 (seventeen years ago) link

"Deep in the Heart of Texas"

dan m, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:26 (seventeen years ago) link

It's an instrumental.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:26 (seventeen years ago) link

Stereolab?

Jeff, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:27 (seventeen years ago) link

Getting warmer...

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:28 (seventeen years ago) link

It was "Popcorn" by Hot Butter.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:32 (seventeen years ago) link

Well that was exciting.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:35 (seventeen years ago) link

I have no idea who that is.

dan m, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Nice work, Nick.

jaymc, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:50 (seventeen years ago) link

(Dan, it was a novelty hit in the early 70s. You've probably heard it.)

jaymc, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:50 (seventeen years ago) link

It made extensive use of the Moog synthesizer, and has an awesome drumbeat.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:52 (seventeen years ago) link

It isn't really that good though.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:52 (seventeen years ago) link

Not to keep harping on C0ugar but some local dude posted this:

You know how Television has 10 or 12 distinct styles/moods?

C0ugar is doing one of them. On the plus side, they are doing that one mood very well. On the minus side, if you aren't interested in that one mood there's nothing else there.

Fuck. Television was such a great band. More bands should emulate them.


No idea if he's in the right ballpark or not but I'm guessing no.

Jordan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:53 (seventeen years ago) link

He lost me at "10 or 12 distinct styles/moods."

jaymc, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah. WTF?

KitCat, Thursday, 8 March 2007 16:59 (seventeen years ago) link

Hm, I didn't recognize the song on itunes but I don't think they had the HOTT BUTTER version.

Shuffle mode is grebt:

"No Way Out" - Sebadoh
"Today has Been a Fucked Up Day" - Beck
"Krug Calling Retik" - GRAVITAR
"Stuck on Pussy Drive" - Kool Keith
"Sleep" - Dystopia

dan m, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:01 (seventeen years ago) link

COME ON GUYS EVERYONE KNOWS THAT

dan m, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:01 (seventeen years ago) link

If gnuILX had avatars I think I would have a Gravitar avatar.

dan m, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:03 (seventeen years ago) link

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:18 (seventeen years ago) link

represent what?

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Is Chicago just really boring today?

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:39 (seventeen years ago) link

Come on guys, spring is on the verge of springing.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:39 (seventeen years ago) link

can not play ipod at work anymore because all "non encrypeted external drives" are now banned from being attached to gvt owned workstations here. ;_;

chicago kevin, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:40 (seventeen years ago) link

yesterday i saw my first robin of the season, i was just outside and saw multiple robins meaning spring is even closer. i'm guessing.

chicago kevin, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:41 (seventeen years ago) link

I have these stupid earphones that have buds on the end that are like the earplugs that you roll up and then they expand in your ear. They are stupid because the earplug parts keep falling off. I finally managed to lose one of them today and so I borrowed Sarah's earphones to bring with me but they sound so bad and tinny I can't listen to music with them.

n/a, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:44 (seventeen years ago) link

Spring won't spring for 2 months. Don't be fool by the forecast.

Jeff, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Holy shit, Ian (of Ian's Pizza) is opening up a bagel joint here.

Jordan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 17:57 (seventeen years ago) link

i think next year i'm going to leave the city for the whole teasing, depressing month of april and go somewhere that they actually have spring in april.

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:01 (seventeen years ago) link

There isn't spring in April here???

dan m, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:03 (seventeen years ago) link

what?

chicago kevin, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:03 (seventeen years ago) link

only by comparison.

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:03 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm ready for heat, you guys. Buying air conditioners and shit.

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:04 (seventeen years ago) link

April in Austin is nice.

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:05 (seventeen years ago) link

It's beautiful here today. I just spent half an hour waiting for a ride outside the tire place, jacket open, playing soccer with pieces of icy snow.

Jordan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:07 (seventeen years ago) link

It's almost springing now, there are birds singing outside!

dan m, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:07 (seventeen years ago) link

IT IS SUMMER

SO EXCITED YOU GUYS

Jordan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:08 (seventeen years ago) link

I want fat, sweaty, boxer shorts and wife beater weather.

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:11 (seventeen years ago) link

i'd settle for weather that doesn't require a winter jacket.

chicago kevin, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I'm just being bitchy. It is nice outside today. I need to eat.

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:18 (seventeen years ago) link

I think I look stoned all the time with these new contacts. For some reasont they make me want to keep my eyes half closed.

dan m, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:42 (seventeen years ago) link

did anyone ever answer jesse's question about thirsty thursdaying yesterday? cause i'm starting to get a feeling.

chicago kevin, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:43 (seventeen years ago) link

I know it's spring because for the last few days when I've come in to work in the morning, yesterday's teabag is still wet and easily removed, rather than all dried up and stuck to the bottom of my mug.

jaymc, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:45 (seventeen years ago) link

Like Professor Martin Luther King said, I have a feeling.

kenan, Thursday, 8 March 2007 18:45 (seventeen years ago) link

My lunch, let me tell you about it.

I had some wonderful leftovers. Nick made mashed potatoes with greens mixed in and corn on the side. mmMMph!
