MY GLEE IN THIS VIDEO CANNOT BE EXPRESSED IN WORDS BRB DYING.

(in which mike cooley and patterson hood have a banter about how patterson missed the last show at the 9:30 club, and they love each other so much omg omg)

....the smirk at the end of this actually MADE ME WHIMPER OUT LOUD. At my desk. At work. He just sort of smirks with his eyes closed and gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

2. I just heard a REALLY GREAT version of Chuck Berry's Why Should We End This Way sung by Jay Farrar on LastFM, and I can't FIND IT ANYWHERE. Well, I can on the Amazon Authorized Sellers thing, but I really just want that one song. >:(

...also why does Jay Farrar only sound hot singing cover songs? IDEK.

3. This picture of Ryan Adams makes me faint.



HOLY GOD. I just. *faints*

4. Finally, this video is from 2001. It's Ryan singing Touch, Feel, Lose, and um. I just. a;ljkf;asldj;alsdfj

The end with the cigarette and the "you guys having fun...?" *slain*

TheMandyMoore: Starting my day by blasting my hubby's bad-ass III/IV record. Hell yah!

:DDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. New Ryan Adams and the Cardinals music! *BRB FAINTING*

2. OH MY GOD, MANDY AND RYAN, COULD YOU BE ANY MORE ADORABLE? SHE SAYS BADASS AND 'HELL YEAH' AND I AM IMAGINING HER ROCKING OUT AND HE'S JUST LIKE :D! AND THEY ARE REALLY, REALLY CUTE OMG. *loves them*

ALSO NEW RYAN ADAMS AND THE CARDINALS. Just sayin'.

Oh, blueswan! I'm sure you saw this, but Your boy Ryan Bingham won best artist of the year and best song at the Americana awards!

So I mentioned Lucero played only about 36 minutes of their set on Saturday, right? (It was only a 55 minute set, though, to begin with.)

Brian, lead guitarist, twittered this picture of Ben getting his IV immediately after they told him to please stop singing now, and let us HYDRATE YOU."Pic of ben getting the saline drip, he looks like that picture of abe lincoln after he was shot!"

(caption courtesy of brian, lol)

Also, I love that Brian twittered at Cory Branan and offered to fix up his website if Cory would fix his fridge. *giggles*

Also, let's have a picture of Ryan Adams. Why? Because I am home sick, and this picture is HOT. And it makes me feel better.



Y'all, if you don't follow Rhett Miller's Twitter, you are missing daily doses of ADORABLE. Attend:

The Guiness Book folks just called. Apparently I'm the luckiest person in the world. Feels like it today anyway.

AWWW RHETT <3

I'm also really glad, randomly, that vinyl is coming back in fashion. I said this on my tumblr, but I used to listen to records growing up (early 80's kid), and I think it's going to keep the independent record companies in business. I know Ryan Adams will release his new stuff on vinyl and MP3 files only--maybe we can finally get rid of CDs! AND WITH THEM, HATEFUL JEWEL CASES. Seriously, y'all, IDK how but every time I open one it BREAKS ON THE TOP. It's kind of eerie. Maybe I'm cursed. D:

blueswan has a fabulous post about Ryan Bingham!

likeadeuce introduced me to him a few months ago (musically, not in person) and I really dig his sound. He was featured on the soundtrack for the movie Crazy Heart.

also he is very pretty. and he used to ride bulls.



i'm just saying.

:D

Things making me happy:

1. On Brian from Lucero's Twitter this morning:

luceromusic: ben's riding his motorcycle to austin this weekend, please don't run him over... really don't.

BEN NICHOLS ON A MOTORCYCLE. YES, PLS. :D

2.

OH MY GOD, RYAN AND MANDY, YOU ARE TOO CUTE TO EXIST. *explodes into hearts*

3. My Wilco radio station on LastFM is right now playing Son Volt. *giggles*
