    [tall photo]

    I've never attended the official fiesta, which is ongoing this week, but have been known to photograph the balloons if they drift over my neighborhood. This is from 2010.

  24. What do you say about Billy Bragg? Everything, all the words! We need to talk for hours about his music. Nothing, let the music play, he says all that needs to be said.

  25. I had my eyes on this cover from the start, even though I am not a big RHCP fan. They do the song justice and I wanted to squeeze in more Fugazi before this ended.

  26. I'm not your villain,

    Not your adversary,

    I'm not your reason to crack and divide.

    It's long division, crack and divide.

  28. Black Flag is the punk rock Van Halen. Two "rival" lead singers that actually had no beef, because the guitarist was the disruptive lunatic the entire time.

  29. Their covers album, Renegades, is fire. You hear exactly where they come from. They cover Minor Threat and somehow make it harder and faster than Minor Threat.

  30. This video did not age well, because it feels like little has gotten better. I have a lot to say about RAtM, good and bad, but I'm not in that mood. Just let it play, loudly.
