We need to work on this year’s Top 10. Last year’s is pretty amusing to look at.
Can we just say “Oh my Jesus” to the fact that Whirlwind Heat did a cover of “You’re Pretty Good Looking (For a Girl)” FOR THE HOT CHICK SOUNDTRACK????!?
FREEWilliamsburg’s Top 10 of 2003.
Robert Christgau loves Ryan Adams, Justin Timberlake, The Donnas (no comment), MC Paul Barman, and Kimya Dawson! (But is not too keen on Beck
.)
Is it OK to rock the Kazaa at work?
Eminem is Daddy of the Year.
Philip Seymour Hoffman takes his star turn in Love Liza.
Bless… Jamie Bell.
The end of 2002 is making us loopy. Ok, maybe it’s because we wiped out our hard drive (on purpose) and were forced to the use the laptop, which had all these old mp3s and bookmarks… We’re “awww”ing over Coldplay (circa Parachutes) and oh god… Starsailor (yeah, remember when we used to be all about the James Walsh? Remember when we gave two shits?). Fuck — we just got the heebies and vomited. We turned wuss again at the end of 2002. This sucks. We promise 2003 will be less wuss and MORE ROCK!
Rerun of Flaming Lips on Kilby tonight.
Strokes Spin article is up on the site.
We’re gonna shit our pants when Triumph the Insult Comic Dog‘s CD comes out in March. It’s gonna be the greatest album sung by a dog since Vanessa Carlton’s LP.
HEY MOPE-ROCKERS. Can you stop wiping your tears away long enough to watch INTER-FUCKING-POL on Letterman January 9th? Was that English? INTERPOL, LETTERMAN, JANUARY 9, 2003.
Coldplay is like way famous now. (According to Blender Vin Diesel loves CP… describing their music as “ethereal.” Wow, he’s gayer than we thought.) They’re gonna be featured on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve (not live).
EWAN McGREGOR LIKES BANANA BOATS.
Lolita-isms don’t work for everyone. Good thing Pee Wee Frodo is his hommie.
WE DO NOT KNOW HOW THE FUCKING DONNAS GOT TO BE MTV’S NUMBER 10 OUT OF THE TOP 10 VIDEOS OF 2002. White Stripes, “Fell in Love with a Girl” number one yes… Missy yes… Kylie yes… even Justin Timberlake we enjoy. But THE DONNAS? We just fainted. ATLANTIC RECORDS MONEY MACHINE IN FULL EFFECT. The Donnas/ OK Go tour is officially our most dreaded musical pairing of 2003. AND 2003 HASN’T EVEN FUCKING STARTED YET. GOD HATES US!
Matchbox Twenty have their dreams come true: Making New York a GIANT ROLLER DISCO. When we were young girls, we had similar dreams. Except they involved decapitating Rob Thomas and making HIS HEAD a giant roller disco. (THAT’S BECAUSE HIS HEAD IS AS BIG AS A BLIMP.) What a bunch of fucking f*gs.
MUSIC IS SHIT, GIVE US A DRINK!
Jack White is one of Blender‘s Top 50 Rock Geniuses of All Time. (He’s number 50.) And what did they put as the praise-quote? “The White Stripes make me want to eat crack pipes and dance with the voodoo bones of the dead.” – Ryan Adams.
Whoever decided to give me presents sometime in November, where the FUCK are they? The books have NOT arrived. I’m starting to worry someone stole my reading material. Do some follow-up!
News flash: Chris Martin HAS NOT SLEPT WITH YOUR WIFE! Link from Nick.
Ouch! Diff’rent strokes for diff’rent folks… Old people don’t “get” The Rapture. They leave it to the younin’s. Although the 21-year-old Members Only wearer is not an accurate representation of the people that listen to The Rapture… he’s just a universal tool.
Fab ‘n’ Drew. Link from Bella.
It isn’t a party unless Noel Gallagher is there.
Travis and Courtney say bye to Evening Sessions. *sniff*
