music in the shed


Filmed in monochrome , so it can be considered as art , not cheap exploitation ...... C`mon lads , you`re better than this .......... ( Still my favourite R.E.M. track and video , though ...... :) ...... ) .............

I think I can recognise most of them , but who`s the tit doing the singing ?


The boring bastards at YouTube means you can only watch it on , er , YouTube .............

Here`s one R.E.M. track you can see straight away .........

It`s about CBS TV anchor Dan Rather being hassled / attacked in the street ..........

Although the other ( apparently false ) explanation .... which I much prefer ........ Is that when John Hinckley Jr. was pinned to the ground by security agents after shooting President Ronald Reagan , he apparently started screaming out again and again , at the top of his voice .............. " What`s the frequency Kenneth " ............... mimicking what he could hear coming out of one of the security agent`s radio .........

..... Sometimes fake news can be more fun than the real thing ..........

Where Hinckley Jr. failed , Harvey Oswald managed to hit the mark ...... ( after four or five goes ) ....... Well , he had served in the US Army ...........


Sometime during the late `fifties , Lee Harvey Oswald decided to visit the Soviet Union ......... When his six month or whatever visa expired , he asked the Russian authorities if he could stay on .........

Of course they said no , but he persisted , and eventually they agreed to officially extend his visit , and allocated him an apartment ........

The only thing was , the apartment wasn`t in one of the big cities , but in a small town miles from anywhere ..........

According to Oswald , the only entertainment in town was " a skating rink "......... ice skating presumably he meant .........

So after a few months Oswald thought " bugger this " ........ and decided to return to the `States and shoot Kennedy ................


BTW ........ Strange how YouTube put an age restriction on Michael Stipe and three girls dancing around topless ........ but allow to go ahead unhindered a video containing graphic images of JFK getting his brains blown out .......... :unsure: .............

A few years ago a British tourist was making his way through Texas when he realised he wasn`t far from Amarillo ......... As he remembered the Tony Christie hit of the same name , he thought he would divert from his planned route and pay a visit ........

He entered a bar in the town , and within two minutes he had been shot dead ...... caught up in the cross-fire between two feuding drugs gangs .........

...... I seem to have burrowed myself into a rabbit hole of gun crime and senseless violence .......... Oh well , too late now ...........

.......So ..... In for a penny , In for a pound ..............

If you`ve seen Quentin Tarantino`s film " Once Upon A Time In Hollywood " you will be familiar with this .......

Despite the photo and title , the poison dwarf is nowhere to be seen ........ It`s actually Steve Grogan who takes care of the lead ( ish ) vocals .............

...... better try to put things right , I suppose ............. don`t want to start upsetting people ...........

....... So here`s Siouxsie`s Christmas single from 1980 .... complete with nice Welsh choir ........ this should do the trick .......... :) ..............

....... Oh , hang on a minute .......... :oops: .................
 
Paul Kelly a Melbourne musician…. Rita mustn’t have heard his ‘How to make Gravy’ song …. a very popular and somewhat, similar song he wrote years ago.




Who am I to say he needed another cash cow song!
 
...then you have At the drive in, Mars Volta, has me engaged, thank goodness for the rhythm section, else the cacophony would be.... no wait the song live is cacophony made good.... works for me.... j

 

The Dictators sing Iggy And The Stooges .......... MAGA ....... sorry , MEGA ...............

.... Handsome Dick having trouble with his microphone reminds me of when I saw Iggy live ........ Halfway through No Fun he threw his mike down on the stage and broke it ........ There was a five minute wait whilst someone came on stage to fix it ........ As soon as it`s fixed , Iggy goes and does it again ............
