Ok, maybe Im getting all Mr Wilson-like in my old age... but.
Im getting to the age when i want to shake some young 'un and say:
YOU ARE LISTENING TO SHYTTE!!!! THIS CRAP WILL FUCK UP YOUR BRAIN!! TURN IT OFF NOW!!!
What incited this state of crank, you may ask? Well, I'm in the Rockin' Java coffee house on Haight (again), and they play music constantly.
Over and over. Must be the barrista's favorite.
I dont know the name, but its a woman, singing like she's a 3 year old. No, really. She sings like she's a training pants child to the accompaniment of real musicians.
One time, I can dig the irony. Twice, I'll treat it as background noise.
But not all the time. For, you see...
I AM LISTENING TO SHYTTE!!!! THIS CRAP WILL FUCK UP MY BRAIN!! TURN IT OFF NOW!!!
Gottdamn, i thought Bjork was bad, but this...

To drown it out, I switched to ZZ top and cranked that mother to 11.
According to the barrista (male) this is not ONE person, but several who fit that description.
he described two of the offenders:
Coco Rosie and Joanna Newsom.
This crapp apparently is considered "indie music".
Oh.
Holy shit.
Now, im starting to understand why older folk drift to the Oldies station.
Our nerves can take just so much.
Ahh, the bliss of Nine Inch Nails and Jethro Tull.

By thee way, the barista (male) knows the Newsom family and she is a cousin of da Mayor of San francisco.
The family must be so proud.
