friday random eleven – “muggles, money and mucus” edition
This week started with a sick day (that I’m still not over), involved an indirect presidential encounter, and so far, has been ending with a tremendous exercise in self control to not grievously maim a needy co-worker who does not understand that my office does not exist solely to support their particular project by answering inane queries that aren’t part of our job description or mission.
Also, the muggle world is conspiring to keep me from a pretty awesome gig this weekend at The Chestertown MD Harry Potter Festival, an annual event that I keep missing for a number of reasons. The rest of my bandmates and several of our wrock friends will be there providing entertainment and such, though the Humdingers will be without their low end this year. Oh well, they promised me they’d do some kick-ass shows anyway. if you’re nearby, go see them rock the house and tell them I wish I was there.
That said, I will get a chance to dive into Luke Cage this weekend, which I guess is some consolation. I hope it’s as good as I expect it’s going to be. Netflix is knocking these Marvel shows out of the park.
Anyway, here’s some tunes:
- “Creep” – Radiohead
- “Au Contraire” – TMBG
- “Little Mascara” – The Replacements
- “It’s My Life” – Talk Talk
- “Where Did Our Love Go” – Soft Cell
- “The Promise” – When In Rome
- “Here I Go Again” – Whitesnake
- “Hit Me With Your Best Shot” – Pat Benetar
- “I Love Rock and Roll” – Joan Jett and the Blackhearts
- “Go (Club Mix)” – Tones on Tail
- “Under the Milky Way” – The Church
this week’s random Eleven? – if you’re in Georgia, go audition for Stranger Things season 2!
