Start Choppin'

I picked it up because I liked the cover and the name of the band.

When I got home I saw J Mascis under the disc.

I knew I made a good choice.

Forever On Pause

I had been looking forward to Spice World. So much so I paid to see it in a theater.

I went with a group of friends. They went for laughs. I went out of a very real interest in the Spice Girls. Mel C in particular.

It was a free movie OnDemand a couple of years ago. Cathy was not into it. It was stopped. That was the end of my encore viewing.

Spice Girls - Spice. Amazon.com. Used.

Indie Dance Party

I always assumed Dub Narcotic Sound System would sound like Asian Dub Foundation.

Not at all.

Dub Narcotic Sound System featuring Lois - Ship to Shore. AKA Music. Bargain bin.

Go Buy It

Floorpunch - New Jersey. Six Feet Under Records Webstore. New.

Kids Stuff

I always considered Screeching Weasel "kids stuff." Even as a kid.

I suppose that was my feeling on pop punk in general. Although that never stopped me from listening to Green Day.

When I made an arbitrary decision as a teen, I stuck to my guns.

Screeching Weasel - How to Make Enemies and Irritate People. AKA Music. Bargain bin.

Happy Fourth

Kelly's Heroes is quasi-patriotic. Right?

Maybe not this medium. Close enough.

Black Grape - Kelly's Heroes. Amazon.com. Used.

Gorges

I saw The Get Up Kids once.

I can't remember who else played. Mineral possibly. Copper possibly. Although they might have been a separate show. Or two separate shows.

I drove from Syracuse to Ithaca. Unless it was freshman year. In that case I got a ride.

I saw a lot of good bands at the Cornell Community Room. Bands on the lighter side of hardcore. If that was your thing. It was mine.

The Get Up Kids - Guilt Show. Amazon.com. Used.

Reading Rainbow

This is the second time I've owned this album.

This is the first time I've noticed the title is Satisfiction, not Satisfaction.

Melony - Satisfiction. Amazon.com. Used.
