FMJRA 2.0: So Let It Be Written, So Let It Be Done

— compiled by Wombat-socho Passover begins on Wednesday, so it seems appropriate to use Metallica’s Creeping Death as the SOTD. Also noteworthy: this mashup of the preceding with Megadeth and The Who. ABC is showing The Ten Commandments tonight, but since I don’t have cable I’m out of luck. Ceterum autem censeo Silicon Valley esse […]

FMJRA 2.0: Dr. Destructo

— compiled by Wombat-socho This week’s SOTD is from the soundtrack to the James Caan movie Thief, one of the movies directed by Michael Mann that eventually earned him a shot at making Miami Vice. It’s a dark movie about an ex-con jewel thief trying to go straight who gets dragged back into crime by […]

FMJRA 2.0: Too Much Too Young

— compiled by Wombat-socho No link to the SOTD, which is from Jason & The Scorchers album Wildfires & Misfires, an eclectic collection of outtakes, live tracks, and odd songs that never made it onto one of their regular albums. I’m kinda hoping Britney Spears covers it someday; it’s like the song was written with […]

FMJRA 2.0: Home Is Nevada

— compiled by Wombat-socho I had a good weekend at Confinement; didn’t sleep as much as I should have, but I managed to control my nibbling and my jeans feel a tad looser, so I have that going for me. Also talked to a bunch of folks about all kinds of stuff, and got some […]

FMJRA 2.0: Home At Last

— compiled by Wombat-socho I had hoped to get this done yesterday evening, but the wild Saturday night in Elko turned into an early bedtime since I was exhausted from the drive from Provo, and I felt even worse last night after stopping in the office in Reno to retrieve some gear, so I had […]

FMJRA 2.0: On Your Feet Or On Your Knees

— compiled by Wombat-socho Most live albums are a waste of time and money, but one of the awesome exceptions is the first live album by Blue Öyster Cult, which I bought before seeing them in concert with four other bands at the now-demolished Capital Center because the cover art was just that cool. I […]
