Comment:
I abandoned all mixing rules and just made a mix that I would enjoy listening to! In between songs I included clips of Phillip Seymour Hoffman's portrayal of Lester Bangs from 'Almost Famous' They are as follows:1. Before Blitzkreig Bop: "Here's a theory for you to ignore completely...music..true music..not just rock 'n roll...it chooses you...etc.
2. Before Break On Through: "Jim Morrison? He's a drunken buffoon posing as a poet...give me the Guess Who! They have the courage...to be drunken buffoons! Which makes tham poetic!"
3. Before No Fun: "IGGY POP! AMEN!!" "Isn't it a little early for that?" "Not for me it isn't."
4. Before Tomorrow Never Knows: "You take drugs?" "No." "Smart kid. I used to take speed, with a little cough syrup ...etc... I can't stand here addressing all my adoring fans."
5. Before Frances Farmer: "It's too bad you missed out on rock 'n roll. It's over! You're here for the death rattle, last gasp, last grope!"
6. Before Waitin' For The Man: "You like Lou Reed?" "The early stuff. His later stuff he's trying to be Bowie. He should just be himself."
7. Before Rock And Roll: "You have to make your living as a journalist by being honest and unmerciful. If you get in a jam, give me a call...I'm up late."
The title of this mix comes from a quote that I didn't include about him always being home all the time because he's uncool.
Feedback:
the little lester bang quotes in between the mixes is really interesting
songs i meant songs

Hey quad - how can you say these are uncool? These are way cool in my book. Now really, is there a better song anywhere, anytime, than No Time? What a great band! I have my own uncool mix bubbling around inside that may include uncool songs that I love such as Precious and Few (Climax), and Out of Touch (Hall & Oates). Very nice mix!
