[giant_robot]

50. Some sort of pre-historic thing

I'll see if I can catch a title on the next commercial break. We have a local late-night thing in Buffalo called Off-Beat Cinema. It's hosted by three "beatniks": Bird, Maxwell Truth, and Zelda (filmed in black and white at a "coffee house", of course). They show cheesy flicks and showcase some local bands inbetween. Pretty good late-night fare, imho.

[giant_robot]

70. It's "Teenage Cave Man"

How this ever got passed over at Oscar time, I'll never know.

[sundog]

[enigmatic]

51. Hey bro!

I'm ok; long day here and I'm trying to stay awake:) May have to put some Helmet on!

[aquaman]

60. Helmet is awesome,

Except for the latest release. Have you heard the newest one? It basically is a Hamilton solo record but he used the name Helmet to obviously sell some more records. It is the worst cd I have heard in a long time. And I was so excited when it came out, ahhh what a disappointment.

[enigmatic]

67. No, I heard that, too..

Meantime and Betty are both classics; "Unsung" is in my roration right now..

[aquaman]

78. Unsung is amazing.....

I saw them live back in the day and they sounded like a damn machine. I have never heard a live band that was that tight.

[enigmatic]

85. Yep

You could call them the inventors of math-rock and wouldn't be too far wrong..

[aquaman]

95. Have you bought any cds this week.....

I just bought My Bloody Valentine and Jim & Jennie & The Pinetops new one.

[enigmatic]

99. My Bloody Valentine!

awesome band! I haven't bought anything this week, still listening to Richmond Fontaine's new CD, and it's great. Very quiet, very dark...

[aquaman]

105. Yes, My Bloody Valentine does rock.....

Rediscovered them recently. Regarding the Richmond Fontaine cd, I would love a copy. By the way your DVD is packed up and ready to be sent out on Monday.

[enigmatic]

108. You got it..

play it only after midnight; it's that kind of record..

[aquaman]

115. Have you heard the new Son Volt cd, came out this week.

Going to see them in September in Asheville, NC.

[enigmatic]

117. No!

I'll pick it up for sure, though; how is it? I caught Jay when he came up here a couple years ago and it was amazing..

[aquaman]

128. It is good, I'll burn you a copy if you want....

Or, you can buy an original, your choice.

[enigmatic]

130. Burn Baby Burn!!

heh:)

[aquaman]

131. You got it,

Calling All Angels Lyrics

Santa Maria, Santa Teresa, Santa Anna, Santa Susannah
Santa Cecilia, Santa Copelia, Santa Domenica, Mary Angelica
Frater Achad, Frater Pietro, Julianus, Petronilla
Santa, Santos, Miroslaw, Vladimir
and all the rest

a man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries
and high above the church bells start to ring
and as the heaviness the body oh the heaviness settles in
somewhere you can hear a mother sing

then it's one foot then the other as you step out onto the road
how much weight? how much weight?
then it's how long? and how far?
and how many times before it's too late?

calling all angels
calling all angels
walk me through this one
don't leave me alone
calling all angels
calling all angels
we're cryin' and we're hurtin'
and we're not sure why...

and every day you gaze upon the sunset
with such love and intensity
it's almost...it's almost as if
if you could only crack the code
then you'd finally understand what this all means

but if you could...do you think you would
trade in all the pain and suffering?
ah, but then you'd miss
the beauty of the light upon this earth
and the sweetness of the leaving

calling all angels
calling all angels
walk me through this one
don't leave me alone
callin' all angels
callin' all angels
we're tryin'
we're hopin'
we're hurtin'
we're lovin'
we're cryin'
we're callin'
'cause we're not sure how this goes

[sundog]

52. i'm interested in the wine
