Ok I'm still in love with this song... I sent this out via email to all the other Sandwich Club members a couple of weeks ago (yes that was the old times - SClub has evolved from email to blogging) but I want the rest of the world to know this song. It's called "I used to be an engineer" by a San Francisco outfit, The Ebb and Flow. Going on the strength of that track I actually went out and purchased one of their LPs and an EP off iTunes, both excellent and worth it - despite feeding that greedy mob over at the Apple corporation.
South Park returns today for Season 10 (fuck I feel old!)... Great though. It's one of my favourite times of the year. Since I don't subscribe to the porn channel, this is probably the only show on TV that I have any time for these days. Matt Stone and Trey Parker really don't respect anyone. Remember Chef who's played by Isaac Hayes? Well Isaac's a Scientologist and last year in an episode titled "Trapped In The Closest" they took a big stab at his religion which led to him leaving the show. No hard feelings there, he left on a good note. Come season 10, Matt and Trey are having a go at Isaac. Titled "The Return of Chef", Chef is brainwashed by a "fruity little club" whose members travel around the world having sex with children. A long time ago we used to be friends... la da da da daa.
One last thing before I go. I wanted to mention this band I saw last Saturday night at Starfuckers called Pinky Tuscadero. Crazy sound... I guess it's called Boom, Crash, Pop or something - the names of all these music styles are getting so out of hand. I think many would be divided on whether they like these guys but I'm on the two thumbs up side of the fence. You can hear a few songs from their myspace site. I don't think they do them justice though. Live they were awesome. Reminded me of the B52's - a lot of good chemistry between the male lead singer/ keyboard player and the female lead. I still stress that people will be divided... my flat mate scrounged up his face in distaste the entire gig.
