How sad am I that one of my favorite breakfast places was playing jesus music this morning?
Do they get any brownie points for acknowledging Saturday as the Sabbath instead of Sunday, at least?
Doesnāt it depend on the jesus music? What if it was music from the civil rights movement, much of which was religious? What about sacred harp or shape note singing? Or was this just run of the mill pop christian schlock? [ETA] Speaking of folk music, arenāt I missing Devil Town on WRAS, but didnāt I just turn it on?
Was it What if God was One of Us??
Just a slob, like one of us?
Can I say, as someone who has done shape note singing in a group of 100 people, that one does not have to be Christian or have Colonial or Appalachian roots to thoroughly enjoy the experience?
Come now not all of it is badā¦ Donāt the Talking Heads do a nice gospel song?
What about Bernieās spoken word album?
Or the cover of the Woody Guthrie song by Wilco and Billy Bragg? Isnāt this a live version by the Wilco?
I wanted to find the āCanāt Nobody Do Me Like Jesusā sequence from the movie Highway 61 but it that on youtube? (stupid copyright policeā¦)
If it had been gospel, shape note (which I just learned about in a world music class, and had never heard of it before that, so yay for understanding a reference right away ), harp or something other than jesus schlock, wouldnāt I have been happy?
Did you have to suffer through any Stryper?
Therapy??
(Actually, they arenāt a Christian band, are they?)
Arenāt members of the band Low Mormon? Isnāt Low excellent, none the less? Didnāt I see them open for Swans in 97?
Anybody try to throw a rock out of their lawn this afternoon, only to bounce it off their vanās windshield, leaving a chip and a crack?
Why did you throw it at your van?
Where else would you throw a rock? At the large woods beyond the van, or the small windshield of the van?
Points for difficulty?
Could I hit the side of a barn, if I tried?
Ā
(only if you put a windshield in it)
Sheetrock is mudded and taped, so I guess itās time to wash my hands and pick tomatoes?
Pretty clean for no gloves,amirite?
Arenāt the Ballast Point folks canning most all their products now? Didnāt the fella there challenge me that Iād be unable to tell the difference in a blind test? Does it pain me more that he didnāt have to give me a sixer, or that I owe him a pint of Guinness?
