“Ooh Las Vegas”, by Gram Parsons.

“the first time i lose i drink whiskey / second time i lose i drink gin

third time i lose i drink anything / ‘cuz i think i’m gonnna win!”

good luck!

Rick DeVille: I was expecting the Bolton thing to be our drag out fight this week, before ABC popped up on the radar. The Bolton thing is a big won for our side, a big win.

Agree strongly on both ABC and Bolton. It’s been a busy week. Although I can’t recall you and I ever having a drag-out fight. Am I missing something? And if we keep agreeing on stuff, it would be pointless to schedule one.

I’m gonna go play some guitar now.

Thanks for that Tom Jones link.

Here here is with The Cardigans covering Burning Down the House. I found musical version on an iMix and it’s really become a favorite. So glad to find the video to match. It’s like a set of ear rings, but not really you know.

Wow, that’s a cover I never imagined! Even stranger than the TJ cover of Prince’s “Kiss.”

Oh, man, I love his cover of “Kiss”! And thanks, Donita for the faboo and trippy video. You too, Millineryman. Boy, sometimes Tom can just really pick the material.

Got fond memories of my last trip to Burning Man a few years ago. The “bar” in our neighborhood was “The Tom Jones Panty Lounge and Instant Intimacy Spot.” Free drinks from our amiable (female) bartender if you contributed lingerie to the decor. TJ on the sound system. Good times, good times.

and here’s for all you tom jones fans:

guy walks into a doctor’s office, says, “doc, i keep hearing ‘the green green grass of home’ in my head.”

doctor says, “you’ve got tom jones-itis.”

guy says “is that normal?”

doctor says “it’s not unuusal.”

goodnight, folks, be sure to tip your waitresses!

Ouch!

as the the spin i’m in, i just posted o superman by laurie anderson on my blog. the video holds up suprisingly well.

Morris Sheppard at 95,
Oh boy, what a great song. I saw EmmyLou in concert in maybe 1980, and that was it for me. Hooked. Her voice brings tears to my eyes sometimes, it’s so pure.

Yeah. I’ve had the honor of being around musicians when she’s sung and all of them, some pretty accomplished (and rather famous) in their own right, just stand in awe.
