I toss and turn this recurring nightmare that a too short redheaded comic book writer in black pumps is beating me with a snakeskin whip. Everyone knows I prefer leather.
What can I do? I NEED my beauty sleep.

If a train leaves Chicago at 10 Am EST traveling in a southerly direction at a speed of 65 MPH with a northeasterly wind of 10 knots per hour and temperatures in the low 80's with a 37% chance of percipitation in the evening when a concert was scheduled to be performed in the park with a surprize reunion by the Monkees, a made-for-TV band but who could play their own instruments, did have musical talent, and had a hit with "Last Train to Clarksville" which was inspired by a riff from the Beatles' "Paperback Writer" which was not featured on the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Album which reminds me of Dr. Pepper the soft drink which is strange because I don't drink Dr. Pepper but prefer Coca Cola although both are made by the Coca Cola company which is headquartered in Atlanta GA, the site of the 1996 summer Olympics, the modern revival of the ancient Greek athletic games where the athletes competed in the nude which is another way of saying naked although I like to say "au naturale" and at this point you may be wondering if Quislet has a question or is he just rambling on going from one topic to the next which reminds me of a Bugs Bunny cartoon where Bugs is in the getaway car and talking and the short gangster AKA Rocky says "shut up" and Bugs goes "Sure I'll shut up, you don't have to tell me twice, when I am told to shut up, I shut up, not like other people who just go on and on and don't know when to shut up when they've been told to shut up..." and Rocky interrupts saying "Shut up shutting up!" Boy those Bugs Bunny cartoons were the best but getting back to the question because that is what this is all about, asking MLLASH questions so we can get a humorous response, now where was I? Don't tell me oh and that wasn't the question so don't try to cut me short, but maybe a recap of the question is in order, so we have a train traveling south from Chicago, possibly to Atlanta GA because that is south of Chigao, on the night of a Monkees Reunion concert which might get rained out, so given all that and then some, what do you think of me?

Lash, I'm addicted to itunes all of a sudden and on a downloading frenzy. I suddenly recalled that Lucinda Williams/Flogging Molly duet I told you about years ago and then thought I should try out some Lucinda Williams songs. Quick--give me your top five faves and I'll take a gander! Knowing me like you do, what do you think I may like?

What did you think of my question dated June 14, 2005? And will you ever answer it?

WTF? Lash, you told Cobie that Drunken Angel is a must, but then he had to have a sad one too? Songs don't come much sadder than Drunken Angel. Pineola is one that always gets me.
Joy is my favorite Lucinda song. Pure guitar power. When Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, came out Lucinda did an interview for NPR. The interviewer made a comment about how simple the music was. Lucinda laughed and said something like, "You have no idea what a complicated process you have to go through to get a simple song." That's the spirit I always take with me when listening to Lucinda. I hope you like what you download enough to get more, Cobie. Lucinda is best listened to a whole album at a time as opposed a song at a time. You have to invest the time and go to all of the strange and interesting places that the music will take you, if you want the full effect. She hasn't put out a weak album yet. Once she gets started she doesn't want to stop. I saw her do a seven song encore once. The band was dying. They wanted to get off that stage so bad, and she just kept on saying, "Just one more? What do you guys think?"

Jerry-- I remembered seeing in the concert thread that you had seen Lu in concert 3 times, as I myself have. Belated greetings to a fellow Lu-lover!
And yes, DRUNKEN ANGEL indeed tells a sad story, but that upbeat melody insures that I sing slong happily every time (kinda like Stewart's MAGGIE MAY, which the intro reminds me of a great deal).
PINEOLA is a favorite of my Mom's.
But a tear in my eye is always assured during OVERTIME, REASON TO CRY, LAKE CHARLES, BUS TO BATON ROUGE, SWEET OLD WORLD, LONELY GIRLS, BROKEN BUTTERFLIES... (I could go on and on)
I think one of my favorite pre-CAR WHEELS Lu tunes has got to be SOMETHING ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE TALK. That song is SO sweet.
