I can’t wait until I get a patient with gastric outlet obstruction, because then I can say,

‘Sir…

...you’ve got GOO.’

Music


Jamaica
“Cross The Fader”

This group used to be called Poney Poney. Which is of no relevance to me, because I never heard of Poney Poney. Anywho, I like this album. It reminds me of a different time and place. (The ‘90s, and a beach. For whatever reason.) Fun and uncomplicated!

Mason Proper
“Miss Marylou Carreau”

Last year, I saw this band play at Beat Kitchen. They played their entire album (Olly Oxen Free) front to back. It may have been the best show I’ve ever attended. Coincidentally, I also started talking to this girl who ended up being the lead singer’s cousin. She gave me her number, but didn’t pick up when I called the next week, twice. That made me sad. I never saw her again… until my birthday this year, when I went to see Via Audio at Schubas. Anyway, that’s what I associate this band with. Other than being fucking awesome.

Analog Rebellion
“Brain ≠ Heart (I Need To Know)”

The opening chords to this song sound like those of ‘Politik’ by Coldplay, except it fools me and doesn’t resolve to a minor chord. Also, the name of the song is a good one (other choice titles on this album: ‘North Korea and Kim Jong Il’s Fat Fucking Face’, track 7; ‘Marla Singer Doesn’t Take Standardized Tests’, track 9).
