Saturday Song of the Day

The Moldy Peaches are a punky folk/folky punk band from New York. Wikipedia says they are part of the "anti-folk" movement, whatever the hell that means. Well, I guess it means "a music genre that takes the earnestness of politically charged 1960s folk music and punk and subverts it." Whatever. They have some irreverent folk songs that are pretty entertaining, and this one always seems perfect for a nice Saturday afternoon hog slay.

"I like it when my hair is poofy. I like it when you slip me a rufy."

song of the day

Here is a picture of Bonnie "Prince" Billy playing at Preservation Hall. Although the show was sold out, some unfortunate soul didn't show up and I was lucky enough to get a ticket and squeeze in the hallway to see the show. Will Oldham aka Bonnie "Prince" Billy is a Louisville native. He is an actor, photographer, and has become a cult hero as a folk/country/rock musician. Oldham is a thespian turned musician who sings poetic lyrics in his trademark warbling voice. BUT, he's still got that grizzled hog slayin' look to him, and hog nation, if you don't love his music at least love him for that. I love both, and here's a song from his newest album, "The Wonder Show of the World."
