Doing Things Wrong

Music

No, not my music. I don't play much any more. I spend more time with the band saw than the band.

Most people regard The Knack as a novelty act - My Sharona and little more. The truth is, they were a really great band that deserved a lot more respect than they got. Watch this show at Carnegie Hall in 1979 - they are note-perfect and tight. It starts with one of my favorites - Rave Up - a real barn-burner. Load the video in YouTube for the rest of the show.



Another great band that you've probably never heard of. The music industry today is rotten to the core, but that doesn't mean music is !!!


I never knew the lyrics to this song. Who can understand Australians anyway? They barely speak English. Just watch Braveheart and try to figure out what the hell is going on. To me, this song was always "Back in Black ... random hollering ... Back in Black ... etc." Which is fine, it's a great song. But she's actually pronouncing words. I'm not even sure she speaks English, she's probably doing it all phonetically with cue cards. But she sure has great enunciation.
