(no subject)
Well, I failed yesterday: I didn't make a post. It's not like I didn't have time or anything. I just didn't have anything to say and I forgot to make something up in time!
Much excitement yesterday in Green Day Land on the flist. At least 3 flisties got passes to see the premiere screening of "Heart Like a Hand Grenade" in LA next week. Even if the boys don't show up for their documentary, I expect a good time will be had by all. And I want detailed reports!!!
There was a musical clip circulating around the internet purported to be from the new CD, however a number of people called it out as fake: It was actually from an Oasis song. The irony of this is that about two years ago Noel Gallagher was bitching in the press about how "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" was a ripoff of "Wonderwall." This was amusing not only because it had been at least two years since BOBD had been on the charts, but mostly because A)it's not like he invented that incredibly common chord progression, and B)in that case, did he forget to list the Beatles as co-writers on all his albums?
I suppose I could have babbled a bit about American Idol, except that my boy Adam advanced to next week to the surprise of exactly no one. But someone needs to clue-in the little girls drowning out Ryan Seacrest with their screams of "I love you, Adam" that they sound dumber than usual. Do they actually believe those drag queen pictures weren't really him?? Next week is country week, which will present a bit of a challenge to my lovely guy-linered gay glam rocker. Personally, I think he should do "Crazy" by Patsy Cline.
Studio version of "Black or White." It's a lot more controlled than the live version.
Barb has reminded me that Supernatural is on tonight. Boy, my TV watching has skyrocketed of late. I've got AI on Tue and Wed, SPN on Thurs, and I had Desperate Houswives on Sun, but now that Gale's gone (sob), I guess that's free again. Good thing I don't have one of those...whatchacallums...oh, lifes.
I've got a few days off, which has been nice, but not much else new going on. You know, sometimes I think I like my life like that. Off to go grocery shopping, woohoo!
