Re: Under siege all over (The War On prefight)
The phrase "The war on" is a rhetorical tactic regardless of the object (the Internet's top suggestions include terror, drugs, poverty, kids, and Christmas -- oddly, cancer doesn't make this list). If you want to reflect on it as a generic rhetorical device used to mobilize a political or...

Re: 11-16-15 SF Live Performance
I'm only considering performances that I saw in person. I'd say, Hoblit, Dre, JB, or Paco in Tampa, or Octothorpe in Santa Cruz. Leaning towards Hoblit.

Re: Under siege all over (The War On prefight)
The J. Biveous "Day of the Dead" didn't get many questions about it, probably because it was me I suspect... More like because it was one of Niv's many lyrical entries, so we all knew it was topical. The SF world doesn't revolve around you , ya know! Okay, yeah, so in actual fact it liter...

Wonderful, thank you. I'm listening to some of the "Humorous recitations", and they're incredibly dull, except for the fact that they're a window to the past.

Re: Dawn, Diary, Land, Survival, and (Day of the Dead review
Great fight y'all, all the songs were at least pretty good. I'll post reviews just as soon as I stop being a lazy bastard (i.e. not this time). I voted for over half the entries, and it probably boils down to genre bias more than anything else: Cashpoint, Caravan, Hill, Jerks, KSDBNS, Possum, Soma, ...

That's definitely you. I was wondering if the other two guys represent particular songfighters, too, or any other real people who may have been there.

Interesting. I've been using links like youtube.com/watch?v=jCDSZr2zzws and putting watch?v=jCDSZr2zzws between the tags, but jCDSZr2zzws works too. (That's a great song I didn't link to, btw.)jb wrote:For example, if the link is youtu.be/9IEemZ6-LZc then only put 9IEemZ6-LZc between the tags.

I also felt lyrically targeted. Even if I wasn't, I'm glad I got the "I'm a monster" song.

If you want more of that streamy guitar (and pan-flute kinda thing), you can find it in Niveous's "WTF".jb wrote:The pan-flute kinda thing near the end is interesting, but don’t tease me with a streamy guitar after all that, sheesh.

We should, we should! Egg's making & drinking more piss than ever before, but now while swanning about northern California with his lovely wife. Pretty sure the south of France thing is still happening, he just doesn't live there (very often).
