2Many DJ's--Push It/No Fun Salt N Pepa and Stooges Save America

No, I'm not dead or anything. Just too much work these days.

Check this out!---In these days of division in American politics it makes perfect sense to me that it would take 2 Belgian DJ's to help bring America together, aka Soulwax. Don't know if they got my Salt n Pepa stuck in my Stooges or my Stooges stuck in my Salt n Pepa. However you see it, it really really works!

How awesome is this? (2manyDjs, Soulwax).



No excuse for my absence. Hopefully when the deluge ends here on the East Coast we won't all have washed away. More posts coming--sooner than later.

Silly Post For Memorial Day---Minutemen honored The Stooges, Boris Gives Nick Drake a Shoutout!

I was watching some Three Stooges shorts today. One of the bits had the boys standing as silly dictators (this of course was during WWII). Of course, by the end of the film they suffered a cruel punishment, as you can see by the head shot above. It was then that it struck me.

Three-way tie for awesome

How did I not put two and two together sooner?
What a great homage, from a great band that had a bass player that later became a member of Iggy Pop's Stooges versions 2.0 and 3.0. And anyone who has read the superlative punk anecdotal archive Just Kill Me, by Legs McNeil knows that Ron Asheton of The Stooges used to come and visit Larry Fine of the Comedy Stooges when he was in a nursing home in the latter years of his life. The circle of life. Hakuna Matata. Or did I mean Akuna No Uta? Everybody loves a good clever tribute. At least if that everybody is me.

Check out this one:

Nick Drake: Legendary folk singer/songwriter.

And super noisy Japanese Power Trio Boris.



Pretty clever, huh?
