Marvellous. Just Marvellous.

The Lightning Seeds’ Marvellous is like two songs in one. The front half is an electronica gee-whiz instrumental that half way in turns into an all out, indie pop celebration. It’s all about throwing caution to the wind and going for it. Hmmmm….I don’t remember them making music like this in Liverpool.

Hey, I don’t make ‘em, I just play ‘em. And that makes 14.

dont-missI think I love music more than the average person.  I listen to it all day long. If it is a choice between movie, television or music, I’d take music every time.

But the people who make music, and trust me I’ve been around them my entire life, are nutters.

Today, or rather last night, Steven Tyler announced that he wasn’t quitting Aerosmith after-all. That at least is a sane decision, though everything leading up to it was nuttier than Christmas at Glenn Beck’s house. Tyler may or may not be serious about this but last night he appeared at a Joe Perry solo show and performed what appears to be a conciliatory Walk this Way. For more info on the non Aerosmith breakup, read the Billboard story here.

I’m pretty certain he doesn’t read Ayewonder.com

phunterI haven’t participated in a Photo Hunt since November 29th but since I committed to write every day again,  it’s back! Today’s theme is purple. Earlier this week, I wtote about my High School and purple is the school’s color.  Initially, I was determined to find a photo representing the old days back at Latin School. Unfortunately, no luck.  I haven’t digitized many photos from back then. (another new task) I do have what I think is an excellent replacement.

The photo below is of Endway when they performed at the Paradise in Boston on Feb. 17 of this year.  In this shot, the band is bathed in soft purple ellipsoidal spotlights. If you are unfamiliar with Endway’s music, you can hear them on MySpace.

The Interview

Here’s a brief transcript of a recent John McCain interview:

Interviewer: “Senator McCain are you a football fan?”

McCain: “Well as you know, I was a prisoner of war and wasn’t allowed to be a fan of football for many years.”

Interviewer: “I can understand that. What about music? What type do you like to listen to?”

McCain:” Well, in addition to being a prisoner of war, I was also a POW. I don’t know if you knew that. Back then, the only music I had was when I whistled.”

Interviewer: “We can skip over that then. I understand that you and your wife own 4 homes and some investment properties. Why didn’t you just come out and say that?”

McCain: “Well, I suppose you could of just checked the Google. Then you would have your answer and also know that for years as a Prisoner of War I didn’t even have a table nevermind a house.”

Interviewer: “In closing Senator, is there anything else you’d like to say?”

McCain: “In my years as a POW, Prisoner of War, I know what character is about. I think you should vote for me for President because, you know, I was a Prisoner of War. POW.”

McCain: “A POW.”

The Disclaimer

Before you get your knickers in a twist, I am grateful to John McCain and the other men & women who have ensured the freedom and safety of this country. They have served nobly and with honor. We are blessed that service men and women will risk life and limb for all of us.

That said, you have to admit being a POW shows amazing character and resolve but it does not qualify you to be the President of the United States. Enough already, Senator.
