here in my office today. My stuff is mostly a mix of rock and rap. A lot of Linkin Park, The Black Keys (who's El Camino is a hell of an awesome album), Muse, Smashing Pumpkins, Jay-Z, Dre, and Eminem as the most frequent artists on the playlist. But I've got a ton of older stuff and random one hit wonders and old school rap as well. Currently playing is the cover of "Blue Monday" by Orgy. Prior to that was Sad But True by Metallica and Welcome to the Jungle by GNR.
Happy Friday and have a great weekend everyone!

The Trololo video first
The Trololo video first
The Trololo video first appeared on some sites beginning on 21 February 2010, the most prominent of those being the "Trololo" website trololololololololololo.com that helped push the meme into popular awareness, receiving more than 3,000,000 hits in its first month.[23][24] It gained prominence on 3 March during a segment on The Colbert Report[25] after appearing on Red Eye w/ Greg Gutfeld a handful of times over the previous couple of weeks. It was also parodied by actor Christoph Waltz on Jimmy Kimmel Live![26] as well as Craig Reucassel on the Australian TV show "The Chaser", and in September 2011 on the animated American television series Family Guy in its tenth season premiere episode, "Lottery Fever".[27]
The "Trololo" meme in turn re-ignited interest in Khil's singing career aside from his vocalised performance; for a time, the "Trololo" website[28] included a petition for Khil to come out of retirement to perform on a world tour.
I haven't heard anything about it. It's nice, of course! Thanks for good news! There is a backstory about this song. Originally, we had lyrics written for this song but they were poor. I mean, they were good, but we couldn't publish them at that time. They contained words like these: "I'm riding my stallion on a prairie, so-and-so mustang, and my beloved Mary is thousand miles away knitting a stocking for me". Of course, we failed to publish it at that time, and we, Arkady Ostrovsky and I, decided to make it a vocalisation. But the essence remained in the title. The song is very playful – it has no lyrics, so we had to make up something for people would listen to it, and so this was an interesting arrangement.—Eduard Khil

Was canceled. I rushed in here for nothing. Damn.
On the bright side, I could be available if I learn of any brew pubs taping Pliney the Younger, which is platinum out here-and only available this time of year in minimal quantities, and long lines to get any. I had it last year, and it lived up to the hype.
Fingers crossed.

There was some talk about that game that happened on Tuesday, but it was overall an entertaining, upbeat podcast!

yeah you, is your point made so I can continue?
Yes, but first when's the last time you even listened to this album?
Today, after I saw it mentioned in this thread.
Okay continue.
...it's a really cool device that makes the music more interesting. They...fill space with sound--different instruments coming in at every possible tones tha could make up that chord. First time you hear it you are like "That is amazing!" However it's really a tool, not the basis for extended and repetitive listening until the end of time. The things that other bands went on to do with this device were the really awesome things. SO many bands mention MBV in their list of influences because they used that device, but I think those bands all used it to greater purpose than MBV did. It's like appreciate Darwin but that's not even 1/4 of what evolution is, you know?
