Thank you to everyone who keeps posting comments. I am glad to see we have so many Bowie fans. I myself am a fan of Labyrinth. But you know Ali, you can't go home again, or something. I would also like to clarify something. In the last post I made it sound like Carlos liked "Fity Cent" and Creed. Carlos, I apologize I know you have better taste than that. Also per your request, everyone can now find a link to a wonderful script resource in my link section. Also you can now find a section on the blogs that I visit and radio on the net. You should check out the link to the RLD guide on Giga. It's kinda funny. Also Ali you will be happy to know that Brie and I both won at hipster bingo in Qdoba last night. We thought it was kind funny.
Speaking of hipsters, let's talk about a special kind of hipster, the Mod. Get on your Vespa and let your shaggy hair blow, the Band of the Day is The Who. Talk about under-rated. While John, Paul, George, and Ringo were still writing songs to pick up fourteen-year-olds, Pete, Keith, and Roger were defining rock music and dare I say it, distortion. There would be no Backstreet Boys without the Beatles. There would be no Rage Against the Machine without The Who. I think they deserve a special prize for that. Plus on top if releasing great albums like "Who's Next", "Tommy", and "The Who Sell Out", they have been on the Simpsons. So you are listening to Baba O'Riley please call it by it's proper name and say a small thanks to The Who, they deserve it...
