On Carthage and the winner’s version of history…

  Carthage/Cardiff, Going beyond the “baby, baby, baby let me touch you in your bathing suit area” level of lyricism, Aggressive lectures and revenge fists, erudite subjects and literacy with music, pretentious allusions, mclusky’s revisionist history, the unnatural life of touring, warding off Danzig and wolves with acoustic guitars, the Danzig punch’s anniversary… how about Piers Morgan? You can’t pick your allies. Best US Cities for mclusky/FoTl, mclusky gear theft ($25K worth of equipment) the day G.W.Bush is re-elected.
  Hello to Jeff Moody, Doing what you do… harsh invectives and brutal truths with Falco. christian fitness live? Not touring because of lack of money, being in a proper band and what that means. Welsh trains, more about cats, Shadow Analysts… per actor? per movie? per shadow?

  Playing with Vulgar Trade and the Mass… The Mass: “The Sound of a jazz band falling down the stairs”. Roland no slouch or slouch hat, Chad Allen’s pedigree, promo for a show that has already happened, rock show food talk, the delicate art of making people happy

  01:40:06 Roland – Is This Tyrese Gibson?

  01:46:10 Children in adult situations (Stand by Me), explaining human feces on the sidewalk to children, getting your child PUMPED UP. (Survivor recap). Rock references, saying “God” a lot for a humanist, colloquialism, “Whatever happened to Survivor?”
