Anyone else notice that coked up monkey-man smoking in the front row. He has always freaked me out.

I love this jam. Thanks Subby.

I know everybody on Fark hates Def Leppard, but their cover is pretty interesting, particularly the twist around the two-minute mark. Rock On

The brilliance of the track is its openness, combined with its arbitrary production touches.

Jump up down down in blue suede shoes.
See her shake on the movie screen. Jimmy Dean.James Dean.

How weird was that? And cool. Weirdly cool.
