so the worst thing about the world (or, perhaps just the cafe i'm trying to work in) is the horrible dehydrated soul/blues/funk/r&b they play... sanitized dead grey covers of songs that maybe were hits, but are just a little too edgy for the soft brains that apparently its assumed that people have... and, i think as a result of that assumption going on for too long, people are starting to have. soft grey music for soft grey matter.
whatever it was a particularily spongiform cover of the white stripes fell in love with a girl... that song, whatever you might think are its merits or lack thereof, is all about urgency and crazy energy... sucked down to half tempo narcolepsy.. bah! the final nail in the suck coffin is that the lady singing didn't even have the whatever to keep it as "fell in love with a girl" ... we could have at least had some kinda lesbian overtones to keep anything interesting about the song. but no. that could shock or offend!! and it wouldn't sell as well!
well thats enough procrastinatory rage for a while. my ass hurts. i wish i could work at home, too much madness, too many guitars, and the worst desk/chair set up for miles around. almost done the fucking website at least.
