Picky, Picky, Picky

Only 2 people have heard of the Dead Milkmen? LimeWire will educate the rest of ya. I suggest "Punk Rock Girl"
 
It's a sad world we live in, isn't it Jadey! The culture these teenagers are missing out on. it breaks my heart. I wonder it any of them have heard of Frank Zappa? now there was a genius.:D :cool:

so alexandart - what part of gonads and strife don't you understand? you saw the little animation with the music right? it pretty much explains it all. ask a specific question and i'll do my best to answer.
 
gonads = balls
strife = penis:confused:

That isnt funny at all:( :confused:

You know Im german. I didnt hear anything aboiut this milkmen!:( :eek: :p :) :confused:
 
I don't think Frank Zappa would be too pleased if people first heard his music through a medium like LimeWire. He was one of the most outspoken musicians against bootlegs.
 
-Ed you are making me show my age. I do know who the Dead Milkmen were and am a Zappa admirer (have most of his LP's). And your Gonad & Strife song was particularly funny.
Side note: I was singing Tony Orlando and Dawn songs at work yesterday from the comment you made. You bastard!

-Jadey, I'm a bit confused about your Limewire/Zappa comment. Do you support Limewire and it's inherent copyright infringement atmosphere? Or can this be rationalized?

"Only 2 people have heard of the Dead Milkmen? LimeWire will educate the rest of ya. I suggest "Punk Rock Girl"

This kind of relates to another thought...
How board members will ponce on someone asking about pirated software from Carracho networks, yet pirated music from Limewire/Gnutella networks is OK. I'm I missing something here? Is there some redeeming social value connected that I do not see?

Please don't take this as an attack. I'm merely asking you because you seem to be in tune with these networks (judging from recent posts) and I value your opinion.
 
according to Merriam Webster:
strife - n. : conflict, fight, struggle syn: discord, contention, dissention

so strife is a pretty common element to the teenage years of most people. it certainly was in mine. conflict with parents and old fudruckers like myself;)

Jadey - Zappa is dead. he has nothing to lose at this point. if you find his ghost haunting you as you download his stuff, then i can recomend a few good protective amulets and rituals:p

Klink - i get down on my knees and beg your forgiveness!! Perhaps you can get them out by singing "it's a small world after all....":D

and to all, let's not turn this thread into a debate about piracy. start a new thread please. i'm having too much fun with this one to see it get serious about now!!:cool:

some early zappa: Cosmik Debris



The Mystery Man came over
An' he said: "I'm outa-site!"
He said, for a nominal service charge,
I could reach nervonna t'nite
If I was ready, willing 'n able
To pay him his regular fee
He would drop all the rest of his pressing affairs
And devote His Attention to me
But I said . . .
Look here brother,
Who you jivin' with that Cosmik Debris?
(Now who you jivin' with that Cosmik Debris?)
Look here brother,
Don't you waste your time on me

The Mystery Man got nervous
An' he fidget around a bit
He reached in the pocket of his Mystery Robe
An' he whipped out a shaving kit
Now, I thought it was a razor
An' a can of foamin' goo
But he told me right then when the top popped open
There was nothin' his box won't do
With the oil of Afro-dytee
An' the dust of the Grand Wazoo
He said:
"You might not believe this, little fella, but it'll cure your Asthma too!"
An' I said . . .
Look here brother,
Who you jivin' with that Cosmik Debris?
(Now what kind of a geroo are you anyway?)
Look here brother,
Don't you waste your time on me
Don't waste yer time . . .

I've got troubles of my own, I said
An' you can't help me out
So take your meditations an' your preparations
An' ram it up yer snout
"BUT I GOT A KRISTL BOL!," he said
An' held it to the light
So I snatched it
All away from him
An' I showed him how to do it right
I wrapped a newspaper 'round my head
So I'd look like I was Deep
I said some Mumbo Jumbos then
An' told him he was goin' to sleep
I robbed his rings
An' pocket watch
An' everything else I found
I had that sucker hypnotized
He couldn't even make a sound
I proceeded to tell him his future then
As long as he was hanging around,
I said
"The price of meat has just gone up
An' yer ol' lady has just gone down . . . "
Look here brother,
Who you jivin' with that Cosmik Debris?
(Now is that a real poncho or is that a Sears poncho?)
Don't you know,
You could make more money as a butcher,
So don't you waste your time on me
(Don't waste it, don't waste your time on me . . . )
Ohm shonty, ohm shonty, ohm shonty-ohm

for a complete look at Frank Zappa lyrics, go here :cool:
 
Klink, I don't care what people download or don't. It's their decision, not mine. I was just trying to bring a little history & information into the thread. Frank Zappa was a little like the Metallica of the bootleg era.

BTW, I don't like Zappa myself and wouldn't d/l his music anyway. :p
 
Swinging utters? do tell:D Anyone like They might be giants? Now that is high quality music there:D

I really like this guy ->:D :D :D :D :D :eek:
 
klink - better watch it then. i have newspaper:p

zerorex -ok, i've never heard of the swingin' utters. clue us in!!

jadey - and here i was beginning to think you were a truly cultured individual. maybe you just never heard the right album. Joe's Garage and Apostrophe have always been two of my favorites.

alexandert - do you get it yet?;)

johnnyV - stop playing with the smilies. you'll go blind:p

Oh yeah? Well maybe I'll ask LimeWire to give me some samples. :p
 
The swing'n utters are another punk band, similar to the dead milk men, a little less abrasive, especially on their latter albums...

Not really a big fan, but a friend of mine is, and he turned me on to them... for my money, Fear Factory and Jane's Addition are the sh*t...

Hey Ed! Those are two of my favorites!

I've been humming Joe's Garage ever since I read your post (and it sure beats Tony Orlando and Dawn!)

I remember when Joe's Garage first came out (yes, I'm that old too). It was basically the story of my youth (except it was Jeff's garage), from the Dodge in the corner, right down to the couple of quarts of beer, and of course Jeff's mom ("Don't you boys know any nice songs?")

Thanks for the memories ;)
