The Pissed Post

Bare with me and humour me. I've had this affliction for many, many years where by every so often I have to get pissed, on my own, and listen to music all to myself, miming and crying along as the highs and lows hit me.

Well, haven't done one for a good while. Tonight I should have been asleep hours ago but instead I'm pissed (on cider! blurrgh!) and loving my music and my laptop. I can pin-point a whole raft of songs I love listening to in this state, some of which will make you wince. I don't care though, because this is my escape valve, and I loves it. :)

Long boring song list in no specific order for playing at these times, to follow for own personal gratification.

Cranes - Starblood
Kate Bush - Hounds of Love (shuddit)
Nico - Evening Of Light
Velvet Underground - Black Angels Death Song (Note to Mr Chicky - still want this played at my funeral)
New York Dolls - Subway Train
Big Country - The Crossing + Restless Natives (old habits die hard)
Pavement - Filimore Jive
Yo La Tengo - Deeper Into Movies + Tom Courtney
Truckstop - Coast To Coast
Sugarcubes - Birthday
A Silver Mt Zion - The Triumph Of Our Tired Eyes (Natch)
Meltwater - Help Me Daddy (Yes my band - I especially loves it at these times)
The Stooges - Little Doll (Apocalyptic Guitars and the end of the world)
Joy Division - Novelty

Then at this point I curse the ones I missed, fall into bed pissed and wake up about lunchtime the next day, wondering where the day went and annoying Mrs Dio. :)

Still, I've been a busy boy, so down time is called for.

I look forward to the day I can annoy Elis by making him listen to this shit, as he stays up late on the night me and Nursey stays up late an pissed to talk bollocks about life and enjoy our music. Man things are good these days when I can shut the whole shitty planet out of my head for a few hours and float on the sounds of joy. Bitchin'!
