Even Cowgirls Get The Blues: Music From The Motion Picture Soundtrack

k.d. lang

I read the book when I was around sixteen or seventeen. I don't what know what I was reading. I just knew there was gay stuff and a girl with big thumbs. I think I may need to revisit the book,  but I've been advised to stay away from the movie.

Here is one of my favorite tracks:

What artist/band are you listening to the most right now? How did you discover him/her/them?

Jamie Lidell

After discovering him nearly a month ago, I'm still stuck on and stanning for Jamie Lidell. His most recent album, Jim,  is my favorite from him, but I've fallen in love with bits and pieces of Multiply (I haven't gone back to investigate his work as part of the Electronica duo Super Collider) . Here are my favorite tracks from that album:

03 - When I Come Back Around

Here's the video for my morning wake-up anthem, "Another Day," featured on the album Jim:

It's just so joyous and gospelly  and just enough  to keep my inner-pessimist at bay a little longer.

Here are two other favorites from Jim:

I'm trying to convert friends and family to the awesomeness of Lidell and drag them along with to his concert next week. A few nibbles here and there, but no one has committed. To hell with 'em. I'll go, if I have to go by myself.

Martin Scorsese's "Shine a Light" documentary about The Rolling Stones has been receiving rave reviews. What is your all-time favorite rock concert documentary?

Being a big old 'mo,  I'd have to say "Truth or Dare."

Madonna - Truth or Dare

Because it helped me be a little more comfortable being a big old 'mo.

Because it taught me a skill that would be required of me as a big old 'mo.

What's the best April Fools' Day prank you've ever had pulled on you?
Courtesy of Team Vox.

That was a good one Team Vox. I won't go into real life pranks pulled on me, because I'm not to sure about what the statute of limitations on assault charges are-- and I've been known to smack a few after they pulled one over me. So I tell you about the online prank that broke my heart the most. It was a posting on Dlisted claiming that a 9 to 5 sequel was in the works. When I found out I'd been duped, I was crushed.

But of course there's news of  the Broadway version coming closer to fruition and Dolly night on Idol to salve any unhealed wounds. I just hope to God that David Cook doesn't trot out the White Stripes' version of Jolene.
