Rush and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Filed under: Music — rshangle @ 11:20 am

Coverage out on Futurerockhall.com re: Rush’s non-induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, associated b.s.-ery, and the Colbert Bump.

Looks like Wired is trying to break the mode, crack the code on the matter. 100, 100, 1 — SOS!

Newish Foo -eq Good, Not Great

Filed under: Music — rshangle @ 5:17 pm

GrohlI am alive, and Dave Grohl, who grew up near my hometown, is alive. And the new Foo Fighters album, Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace, signals a welcome blowback of Foo Power, if not a true return to original 1995-1997 form.

To its credit, the guitar sound on the chorus of “Let It Die” makes me want to play music in a dark, carpeted, semi-finished basement. So it will be… right after I get Leopard / iLife 08 installed next Friday, aka “The Day Leading Into the Least Productive (from a non-computer perspective) Weekend In Recent History”.

Also positively, it’s not the Quato-esque abortion that was 2005’s In Your Honor. Which is maybe why it’s good, in the “it’s better than bad”, “Log” sense.

[ai 6] Sanjaya is not an evil person, is god-awful singer

Filed under: Media, Music — rshangle @ 11:07 am

Melissa Joan Hart’s younger, evil twin is so terrified. What’s wrong, girlie?

Now she’s so happy! She’s plotting the use of her weather-domination device!

He’s a good guy, that Sanjaya. Girl, you really got him now.

And he needs to leave the show. He shouldn’t be there. For the good of the hunger-strikers.
