Ruby Hunter died today.

I can barely type these words without crying...

What can you say, she was amazing.

My condolences go out to her family, especially Archie.











We all know she's back there now tho.

Sorry to read that sad news, Joe.

if you didn't care - what happened to me
and i didn't care - for you

we would zig zag our way
through the boredom & pain
occasionally glancing up through the rain
wondering which of the buggers to blame
and watching for pigs on the wing



you know that i care - what happens to you
and i know that you care - for me too

so i don't feel alone
or the weight of the stone
now that i've found somewhere safe
to bury my bone
and any fool knows a dog needs a home
a shelter from pigs on the wing…

Hey kids, I don't know if you know this but, all these Wonderful vids we share here can be swiftly turned into mp3's. I just learned of this myself and am having a grand royal ball collecting some of the great music being shared here.

I've created my own mix tape cd, -aint technology grand?- But I tried some forward thinking and the next logical step would be to share what I've made. I could see RI doing some proto type of what mefi does in that they create mp3's and mix and match like the old days; those of us whom loved to produce our own tapes for friends and girlfriend/boyfriends etc... they do a project mystery mix with much forethought and labor of love and send each other mixes. So if anyone is interested, I'll start off with my playlist some of which I've posted, but not all..


Agent Ribbons - The World is a Cigarette (Medium)
Big Audio Dynamite - E = MC2
The Cramps - The Way I Walk, Live, Napa State Hospital, 1978
I Feel Like Saying A Beatnik Poem 1950's B Movie Style
John Butler-God Will Fuck You Up
The Slaughtermen - Jesus Saves White Trash
Master and Margarita - Blood Dance soundtrack
Aloan - Rise - Live in Geneva
Indukti - Ninth Wave
bohren & der club of gore - constant fear
Slavoj Žižek on toilets and ideology
Peaches - Fuck the Pain Away, sung by Miss Piggy
SoundGarden-Jesus Christ Pose

All using an easy cite called: http://www.dirpy.com/ it's hella easy.. try it out. We could use a cite like https://www.dropbox.com/ to perhaps create an RI account and share what we've made.

Singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot dead

In light of current events...

Skeletons in your closet
Itchin' to come outside
Messin' with your conscience
In a way your face can't hide

Oh things are gettin' real funky
Down at the old corral
And it's not the skunks that are stinkin'
It's the stinkin' lies you tell

[Bridge]
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasn't polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white lie turns into a black one

So, it's gettin' ready to blow
It's gettin' ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
We're getting ready to know

It's gettin' ready to drop
It's gettin' ready to shock
Somebody done turned up the heater
An' a it's gettin' ready to pop

Crevices in your pantry
Now what do we have in here
Havin' a day time nightmare
Has always been your biggest fear

Oh things are gettin' real crucial
Up the old wazoo
Yet you cry, why am I the victim?
When the culprit's y-o-u

[Bridge]
What did your mama tell you about lies
She said it wasn't polite to tell a white one
What did your daddy tell you about lies
He said one white lie turns into a black one

So, it's gettin' ready to blow
It's gettin' ready to show
Somebody shot off at the mouth and
We're gettin' ready to know

It's gettin' ready to drop
It's gettin' ready to shock
Somebody done turning the heater
An' a it's gettin' ready to pop

It's gettin' ready to seep
You're gettin' ready to freak
Somebody done picked up the talk box
And gettin' ready to speak

It's gettin' ready to jive
It's gettin' ready to gel
Somebody done gone let the lid off
And it's gettin' ready to smell

They're gettin' ready to deal
You're gettin' ready to ill
Somebody done just dropped the big dime
And they're gettin' ready to squeal

It's gettin' ready to turn
We're gettin' ready to learn
Somebody done fired up the brimstone
And you're gettin' ready to burn

It's gettin' ready to shake
You're gettin' ready to ache
Somebody done snitched to the news crew
And it's gettin' ready to break

You're gettin' ready to lie
They're gettin' ready to spy
Somebody' s been put on the hot seat
And you're gettin' ready to fry
