No, but a Black Flag sticker on a Cadillac does qualify - Ataris

Pavement - Range Life

quote:
Out on tour with the Smashing Pumpkins
Nature kids, I/they don't have no function
I don't understand what they mean
And I could really give a frick

The Stone Temple Pilots,
They're elegant bachelors
They're foxy to me
Are they foxy to you?
I will agree
There isn't absolutely nothing
Nothing more than me



Came in to post this, listened to it the other day.

Sitting in this bar is getting more than I can stand
If I could catch a ride I really think I'd ditch this van
Who knows what this repair will cost, scared to spend a dime
I'll puke if that jukebox plays John Cougar one more time

Mr. Narrator
This is Bob Dylan to me
My story could be his songs
I'm his soldier child
Our band is scientist rock
But I was E. Bloom and Richard Hell
Joe Strummer, and John Doe
Me and Mike Watt, playing guitar

what about the voice of Geddy Lee, how did it get so high? I wonder if he speaks like an ordinary guy..

Dead milkmen you'll dance to anything

You know I've never been to England, but I kind of like the Beatles-Never Been to Spain Three Dog Night

Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust-London Calling The Clash


I heard Leadbelly and Blind Lemon
On the street where I was born
Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee,
Muddy Waters singin' "I'm A Rolling Stone"--Cleaning WIndows Van Morrison

Now me and my mate were back at the shack, we had Spike Jones on the box-Up on Cripple Creek The Band

"Sweet home Alabama"
Play that dead band's song
Turn those speakers up full blast
Play it all night long-Play It All Night Long Warren Zevon

From the park, I hear rhythms
Marley's hot on the box-Master Blaster Stevie Wonder

I wanna be Bob Dylan-Mr. Jones Counting Crows

I'm sure it's been mentioned but I hope Neil Young will remember that a Southern man don't need him around
