A fan created video of one of the greatest tracks ever, a wonderful piece of film making...
amazing use of drums, banjo, the human voice...
Landon Pigg...
if you can use the guitar and the voice, what else do you need?
This is
probably the best song
I've heard
in months
if not all year:
Suzy Callahan "Personal Watermelon"
don't start saying that the overhead is only meant for smaller bags and stuff that means nothing to me
we traveled
me an pops
and peej
we all got into a plane
we flew all the way to Florida, then St. Thomas
then we wandered around lost
it was weird
you go from being in Maryland
to being in paradise
there's the AH
she was moored at the docks
her permanent crew kept her clean
old groceries though, but who cares
I'm back at the helm
I'm steering
I have to remember to navigate
you don't point and go
you have to remember currents
you have to put the thing into the waves
into the water
the ship goes on
the new engines we put in hum and throb
it's like being on a space ship on the water
the water is nothing like space
it gets into everything
last night when we shut down I was tired, I smelled like the ocean, there was nothing to eat (we have plenty of canned stuff, no one is going hungry)
so I just went to sleep
not seasick or anything
I expected the shock of the change to hit me
it didn't
grandpa rogers is out there there somewhere, probably looking for his potato
we have to go help him
weird old cat
he's 95
acts like he's thirty years younger
he can still drive a car! He can still walk without help, just slow
he's quite the man
just a little upset
that the fat girl where he was living kept playing hide the potato with him
we warned her
I said
you may think it's weird or funny
but grandpa rogers has had a thing about potatoes all his life
he went to war with potatoes and damned near beat one of those obscure African
nations
with his
amazing potato weapons
he tried sending them into space
so they could be irradiated with cosmic rays
to make them into little potato power plants
he did real science
research
calculating
he made potato guns
light bulbs burst
he made light and he made a calculator that would run on potato power
he was pretty smart for an old guy
his potato launching riot control vehicle
is still in use according to pops
and it fires
potatoes
at people
who don't like x government or whatever.
I hope we find grandpa rogers
I hope we stay down here in the Caribbean for the whole winter
I hope we stay down here til next June
really
I can handle my pops now
I can handle the shock of dealing with him
his evil-assed blog doesn't bother me as much
I'm working on him
I'm getting him to settle it down
so far
so
good
Bummer
A STATEMENT FROM NOEL
28 August 2009
"It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer.
"Apologies to all the people who bought tickets for the shows in Paris, Konstanz and Milan."
hey
bands end
bands start
oasis
time to end?
probably not
you can ride them down
for be here now
and
standing on the shoulder of giants (sic)
but they turned it around
falling down
amazing track
band dynamic
creative
bell from ride
archer from heavy stereo
a killer line up
a rockin
good
band
they went out and played, loud as they could
as well as they could
they played all over the world
and did and done it all
now the nostalgia will kick in
same as when
the replacements broke up
everybody hated them when they were playing (in minneapolis, I read)
and they didn't sell records
soon as they broke up
popular as hell
edgy
cool
stylish
had to have their records out
well
now they're gone
they're history
at least a person
can say
i always liked them
i didn't care what anyone thought
well
oasis
you done good
sort it out
now
can we
have that
smiths reunion
stone roses reunion
new order, you gotta get back together too.
oh i know
i shouldn't
write a blog about grandpa rogers
pops
grandpops
my mentor
when it comes to sailing
the man who taught me to pilot the admiral hassenpfeffer
out of tight places
the screws push the boat
the boat is a ship
but treat her like a boat
and don't fret her weight
size
draught
and she'll be fine
there's a roll in deep water you can feel
everyone looks at me like I'm crazy
I can feel the left screw
push a little harder than the right screw
[screw=propeller duh!]
and she has a flat bottom
the germans thought
that if they gave her a flat bottom
it would help it sail better
nope
need a keel
need a bottom that comes down into a line not a flatness
not a flat bottom with that weight
big battleship, fine
torpedoes I guess
right?
I don't know.
I wasn't in the war
weight is different
the admiral hassenpfeffer doesn't weight that much
when we fire the deck cannon
[missing her, can you tell?!!!!!>>>>????]
she rolls a little and the paint flakes off
when the paint flakes off
you can see
german and all kinds of stuff
you have metal plaques and plates
doors with ornate carvings
things with latin on them
latin, latin, latin
the germans used latin all the time
latin numbers all over the place
it's not as gothic as I would like
gothic I guess
medieval maybe
not roman though
just freaky damned old and german
all throughout the thing
covered up in some places
dad and I knocked down a wall
and found a portrait of Admiral Donitz.
we pitched it
Admiral Donitz
you sucked.
