Caleb Travers has a blog! I just discovered this. Perhaps it’s been there all along? I’ve written a post about this musician before. Remember? His band is Caleb Travers & Big City Lights. That’s right, one of my favorite bands in St. Louis (actually, one of favorite bands in general). Anyway, he has a blog. So check it out or you’ll regret it.


I found this post over at E-mail from Grandma. Hilarious.


Someone actually thought this was a good idea:

The Chimp Who Thought He Was a Boy

 So sad.

Dear Hipster Record Store Clerk,

Thank you for judging me on the CD I bought yesterday. Our passive-aggressive altercation made me realize how conformist I am for buying an old Rage Against The Machine album. Your condescension was just the intellectual wake-up call I needed.

I discovered a new me yesterday, and my eyes were opened in a new way. Thanks to you, I realize now that the key to enlightenment is reading Pitchfork, watching High Fidelity, listening to Velvet Underground, having a tattoo of a star on the inside of my wrist, growing an ironic mustache, living in the Mission, and wearing a too-small sweater, multi-colored 70’s ski-vest, chunky plastic-frame glasses, a high school sports T-shirt, air-tight black jeans, and Nixon-era Chuck Taylors.

I had it all wrong, man. You showed me that a skilled job and a comfortable living is just a lie. I need to go to art school, have my parents pay my rent, join a Joy Division-influenced band, and wait for a record deal, like you. I’m totally missing out in life.

So thanks again for mocking me. I mean, at first I thought you were just a pathetic, frustrated musician trying to feel better about yourself. But now I see you’re an uncompromising visionary.

No one will ever understand you. You’re so different.

Signed,

Everyone Not Like You

Just watch….

 

WHAT AN IDIOT.


What happens when we get carried away with badgering each other….

In case you didn’t notice, I’ve taken a break from blogging (not that I ever “blogged” in the traditional sense, or ever really had steady viewing charts). The reason(s)? Two law/tax-related jobs during tax season means I’m too busy to blog. I’m also neck deep in Calc III and a rather demanding online archaeology course.

I’ll be back in the spring….or sooner, if there’s something worth writing.

By the way, is anyone going to any good shows in the spring? ‘Tis the season for music.

PS….I’m pretty sure I straight punished yesterday’s Calc III test.
