MixTape Draft - 6+ word titles. Finish your draft and listen to mixes! (1 Viewer)

swanky. when we were debating rescuing our last alley-cat (RIP Chip) who lived in the parking across the street from us (and Katz's deli... I fought the losing battle to name him Katz's)... I quickly designed a house for him to stay warm as winter approached (if we did't rescue him) that involved a foam cooler. and lots and lots of scarves.

 
:lol:   At the welding place which is directly across from the cat shack (only a gravel road separates them), there are 3 guys living on the property. There was another guy there, but he left town with his dog last week. He came down from Vegas with his cocker spaniel dog, and redid a Corvette, and was living in one of the garages for the last year 1/2. Supposedly he redid someone elses Corvette, and did a bad job, and they want their money back so he split to Florida. Another guy got kicked out of his girlfriend's house so he has been living in one of the pull trailers, which he says has a couch and recliner in it. Another just set up camp in a pop-up camper two weeks ago directly across from the cat shack. He has worked there for years, and I don't know why he is all of a sudden living in a pop-up. I see him every day around 6 oclock walk from the convenience store to his camper with a 12 pack of bud light. Another guy is a former vietnam vet, that worked their years ago, and came back homeless so he lives in the the apartment there, which is actually a storage room that they made into an apartment. He is a recovering alcoholic, and told me last year that he hasn't drank in two years, but I think he is the one that throws the little bottles of a certain cheap wine around the ditches of the gravel road.  He told me he is going to head to Georgetown SC as soon as his mother's house finally closes. Someone may have bought it, and he is waiting for it to close. I'll miss him when he goes. He takes care of the cats for me when I'm out of town. One of the owners lives in his RV on the property right now too. It caught on fire last week from a propane tank, but had minimal damage to it. At the end of the gravel road is a dead end and a fence, and on the other side of the fence is the abandoned lumber property (which is for sale) where teenagers go and are up to no good. The welding place has a lot of old cars, boats, trailers, storage buildings, sheet metal, etc. in the back lot.

 
I don't remember any thread, may have been busy/on hiatus here at the time, or just missed it, but I too would be happy to contribute to the Cat Shak.  I will not be starting my own.

 
3.*.... Hate to Say I Told You So- the Hives

about as pitch-perfect a 3-chord garage/punk song as I've ever heard. also love the video, which captures whatever in the hell is going on there perfectly. also also love the bass solo and bass player attitude during it. and the swedish mustache.

I rediscovered their albums when researching the international alphabet island draft.   They had a bunch of great songs and style to boot.  Fun times.

 
There's a cat café near my house where patrons pay $20 to drink tea and play with a dozen cats.   If Simey's Cat Shack starts serving tea and the silly SF hipsters migrate to NC, everybody wins.

 
lol... had my spotify open here at the office, and all of a sudden it went from litanny-o'-words songs to kidz-bop. 5yo floppinha appears to be home from school.

If you have a family account with Spotify ($15 instead of $10), you can have up to 6 accounts, so that people can play different songs at the same time! Handy with older kids!!

I'm on free account. so no shared, lots of commercials. yes- only $10-15/month. money I'd rather spend elsewhere. po.

but it appears that my wife has FINALLY created her own damn account instead of using a playlist on mine. now she just needs to get the kids off of mine and onto hers as well.

You are a brave, brave man.  I don't know how parents listen to that and not go mental. 
it helps that she sings along. really earnestly.

but even 9yo floppinho has outgrown it, thank the stars.

floppinho, meanwhile is caught between his own crappy pop crap- that closer song for example- and the AC/DC and Sabbath he's playing at school of rock. 

 
This was one of the first songs I thought of for this draft. 
I was mildly suprised that What Is and What Should Never Be went ahead of it.  I was down right SHOCKED Living Loving Maid did.  It's so incomplete without Heartbreaker.  They need to stay together imo and / should be allowed imo if one of them has six alone.  

Help/Slip/Franklin wouldn't be allowed obviously while LLM/Hearbreaker would.

I am an ####### parent - I never even let it be an option.  I am with them all the time and I think that would put my sanity over the edge.   My son (10) listens to all sorts of stuff now.  I always let him pick songs that he liked and created a playlist for him on my itunes.  Everything from Iron Maiden to The Who to Micheal Jackson went on there.  Still got tired of the same songs over an over, but at least it was stuff I liked to begin with.  Now he just wants all the songs that are on his Madden games and all the stuff that are on the WWE pay-per-views. 

My 2 year old requests We Will Rock You about 20x a day and sings along to it now too.  Also caught her singing along to The Trooper the other day when my son was playing it.  :lol:

I didn't bump the thread much, and I didn't send anyone a link to it. I hated asking for donations, but it was an important thing to me, and so I sucked it up and did it. There were some feral cat haters that chimed in, but I figured that might happen. Thanks for offering...You're just three years too late.  :lol:  Seriously though, thanks for offer.

 
This was my favourite song on this album, so I will take it now. Probably the best example of how these two work so well together with Leithauser's voice coming slightly unhinged a few times and the production by Rostam with doo-*** background, piano, sax at the end etc... is fantastic. 

3.19 - Rough Going (I Won't Let Up) - Hamilton Leithauser + Rostam

@Ilov80s is up.

the wife is with them most of the time. she's an anti-music-nerd nerd. also an anti-film-nerd nerd. and anti-book-nerd nerd. which means she listens to U2 and has the kids listening to pop. it was a losing battle from the start.

What the hay is "anti-music-nerd nerd. also an anti-film-nerd nerd. and anti-book-nerd nerd".

if it's remotely avant garde- aka, the stuff I like- she hates it. top 40 billboard, top grossing films or oprah book club = wheelhouse. 

of course if it's fashion and avant garde, that's ok.

eta: she's anti culture snobs. unless it's fashion culture (her business).

3.21 - Deftones - Be Quiet And Drive (Far Away)

From the three hiccup inhalation to the release, the notes are only 17 1/4 beats away from Chino's vocals. 

Yeah. This is my jam. Rock it.
