Dude. I love ya and all, but DAMN did your band suck. I mean suck by any standard of suck used to quantify suck in the greatest DFW area circa 1991. Scientists still use this video to check their suck-measuring devices highest setting. The suck created by this video could create a vortex of suck that could punch a hole in the space-time continuum and destroy the very universe.
Thanks for that. I now have to find a Smiths fan to kick in the sack…or Wolonksi for setting this loose upon us all.
In re: the Haiti discussion this a.m. on the am radio available by going to the ticket.com and then clicking around…..
from wire reports regarding the 17 year old (hey now) pulled from the rubble 15 FREAKING DAYS after the quake: “Her family said Etienne had just begun studies at St. Gerard when the disaster struck, trapping dozens of students and staff in the rubble of school buildings, hostels and nearby homes. “We thought she was dead,” said cousin Jocelyn A. St. Jules.
Then — a half-month after the earthquake — neighbors heard a voice weakly calling from the rubble of a private home down the road from the destroyed university. They called authorities, who brought in the French civil response team.
French search and rescue team member Dr. Claude Fuilla walked along the dangerously crumbled roof, heard her voice and saw a little bit of dust-covered black hair in the rubble. Clearing away some debris, he reached the young woman and saw she was alive — barely.

“The family said they thought she was dead???”….WHY THE FREAK WAS HER FAMILY NOT DIGGING???? Did they just assume, oh well, she’s *prolly* dead, and I wouldn’t want to Katrina up my hands looking through the house she was in….so I’ll just sit here until somebody comes from 4000 miles away to see. Plus, she could be a zombie and eat me. And we want to hand cash over to such dysfunction?
It’s really just an upsized Iphone or Ipod – I like the interface, all slick and cool, but eventually you get to needing a keyboard.
I think a touch screen enabled game, like Civ, would work on this. But if I need to type a lot, I want a keyboard. And if I’m on the phone, I really just want a phone touchpad.
On something like this, a querty keyboard is too much, a phone’s touchpad is to little. How am I supposed to communicate with it?
Voice recognition is the only way this thing will work – and I don’t think that even Apple can make that work.
Man, for that day and time that was good. That was the fashion, for good or for bad, at time. I have that album still and bust it out on occasion. Good vocals and a very decent representation of that song. Your glasses remind me of similar eye wear Salim Nourallah used to wear circa the same time period when he was in Moon Festival.
Put the awning out, it’s raining celery, and I don’t want to damage the Vespa. Also tune the radio to 475°, and put the TV on top of the sassafras so Dahmer can nibble discarded toenail clippings.
There is nothing wrong with the androgynous singer, or his band – they were living up to an ideal. An 80′s ideal – and, yes, they didn’t quite make it.
But, I would take that 80′s ideal over anything played today – God, I can’t listen to music today.
Am I an old man – or after 40 years of listening to music, and adapting and hearing the “new things”, have I finally found a “new thing” that is just all crap.
Hell, I liked NWA – I thought they were good. Who is today’s NWA? I don’t see anyone who is. Can anyone tell me if there is? There isn’t. Am I an old man, or is all music now just sh*t?
Really, turn me on to something that is good – I really want it – I may be 47, but I still want music that can hit me in my gut. NWA hit me in my gut when I was 25 – why can’t I have that now, when I am 47?
In all honesty, I thought that rocked! You were 19? Wow!
I’m thinking more of a “The Cars” sound there, sir, especially with the keyboards in the background, and maybe that’s why I liked it. In that respect, you looked more like Elliot Easton than Ben Orr, but EE didn’t play bass, so…..
Cherry lollipop pic with bleached blonde hair on the website should be forthcoming.
Only a few more weeks of estrogen treatment before you became female!
Mark David Chapman?

Also, that sucked. Did I mention that?
You kind of look like a young David Koresh
I wouldn’t say it sucked. Probably for you, pretty easy to pass judgement since you never created anything worth while.
Still….I would have liked to have seen how tender his breasts were??
Gordo, you look a lot like Damien Echols of the West Memphis Three. That would explain a lot.
Would ya?
You look like Dwight from the office.
That’s what she said!!!
The Harry Potter glasses can be forgiven, not so much the hair.

What? No Z-Cavaricci pants to go with that awesome buttoned up silk shirt?
giggle
Did anyone see American Idol 2 nights ago with Avril Levine and the sweaty 19 year old crazy guy with shoulder length thick blonde hair?
He reminded me of “Other Dimension Gordo”
American Idol?? Really? We talked about this!
oh my god. that’s “thunder” by andy taylor of duran duran fame! i loves this long! i still listen to this cd every now and then.
not a bad cover by the way!
You are a dead-ringer for Dwight Shrute. Are a fan of the beet?
I looked just like that in 1991 – but I didn’t have a band.
Your looking so GAY!! Not alot has changed for ya since 91….
Anyone mention how awful the Apple iPad is yet? Other than the obvious Tampax jokes, there’s much more.

I wonder what it’s like to use with drawing and animation applications. If it’s worth a damn, it may cast a haze over Wacom.
A pudgy Marshall Crenshaw.
a young Janet Reno??
win.
I actually thought it was pretty good.
Hal Foster’s estate is probably trying to contact Gordon right now. They want the rights to Prince Valiant’s hair back.

I think he played for the Packers.
Damn sure did Bob.
I liked that. I had glasses like that in ’91 too… I was 11 at the time, but whatever.

Actually, damn good, Gordo. Charlie Sexton was/is greatness. Nice cover. Btw, I agree with you re: JT; severely underrated bassist.
