USCHO Music Thread: We All Have A Crush On Shirley Manson

[solovsfett]

TIL that my other* favorite music couple, Ric Ocasek and Paulina Porizkova, was just another tawdry adultery, as he was cheating on his wife of 17 years with her.

**** you, Ric. Though to be honest you don't hold a candle in talent, importance, or betrayal to the number one.*

*Thurstron Moore, obviously. DIAF, buddy.

Thurston Moore was such a pompous douche (well,…is) it was hard listening to him in The Year Punk Broke but cheating on Kim is unforgivable.

too bad for many reasons…selfishly I thought Their last album was a top 2-3 LP from SY and I was hoping for more.

Moore has some solid solo work. I know nothing of his douchiness I admit.

His musical gifts are not at issue.

It's very simple: if you are a male celebrity, do not commit to a monogamous relationship. There it is, solved. There are millions of women who will provide you with extremely fulfilling erotic comic relief. Millions who will happily, knowingly, share you. Just don't dick over some good person who has the misfortune of wanting exclusivity with you. Don't lie to and then inevitably betray that woman. How hard is that?

Ok so apparently there's some cheating going on. By a musician. Not defending it but if we're going to hold every musician to that standard to the point of actively calling them out we're going to be here for awhile.

I’m basing it on The Year Punk Broke and some interviews.

on the other hand I’ve met Steve Shelley the SY drummer and he was absolutely a sweetheart of a guy. Beyond nice.

If you had to name 5 artists that defined you, your tastes, and your personality, who would they be?

[St. Clown]

The Black Crowes
The Beatles
Led Zeppelin
(And long list of 90s Grunge rock acts that would all be vying for the next two spots.)

If I answered this once per day for a week it would likely change, but off the top of my head (and I will second-guess myself in an hour) I think I'd go with:

-Pink Floyd
-The Replacements
-The Beatles
-The Cure
-Grateful Dead

Not sure that's the truest representation but I'll roll with it.

* I could probably answer the same way St Clown did on this line though.

Modest Mouse was a good concert. They were part of a 7-group lineup on that tour with the Flaming Lips and then Cake as the headliner/closing act.
