Pulp Music
Category: music
Thinking this will be kinda rock-a-billy but I call it "Pulp Music"





That song is the one the Black Eyed Peas Barrow .... Now one may ask how do you learn music from a movie... But most good movies are good cause they have great music that fits the scene........

Another one by Dick Dale


Video is all over the place but here is one of Rumble



Hope to look for more with more time

I have heard of Surf Music and I think you hit the nail on the head... Hoping to put some more time in to find more of this......
heidi - 05/11/11 22:22
Neat!

I think these actually qualify for the subgenre "surf music" but I'm not sure how to put the difference into words. They originated around the same time and have common elements. Here's what wikipedia says:
Surf music began in the early 1960s as instrumental dance music, almost always in straight 4/4 (or common) time, with a medium to fast tempo. The sound was dominated by electric guitars which were particularly characterized by the extensive use of the "wet" spring reverb that was incorporated into Fender amplifiers from 1961, which is thought to emulate the sound of the waves.[6] Guitarists also made use of the vibrato arm on their guitar to bend the pitch of notes downward, electronic tremolo effects and rapid (alternating) tremolo picking.[9] Guitar models favoured included those made by Fender (particularly the Mustang, Jazzmaster, Jaguar and Stratocaster guitars), Mosrite, Teisco, or Danelectro, usually with single coil pickups (which had high treble in contrast to double coil humbucker pickups).[10] Surf music was one of the first genres to universally adopt the electric bass, particularly the Fender Precision Bass. Classic surf drum kits tended to be Rogers, Ludwig, Gretsch or Slingerland. Some popular songs also incorporated a tenor or baritone saxophone, as on "Surf Rider" and "Comanche".[11] Often an electric organ or an electric piano featured as backing harmony.

True Blood Blue Grass?
Category: music
I really like this song yes it is a bit short.... Or maybe it is just because I'm a true blood fan but in any event I thought I should post this....



Same Guy doing Please don't go but it sure sounds like other things then just his Guitar



Is This more Blues again same guy



So I typed bluegrass into you tube and found this Japanese Blue Grass no idea what they are saying or what song it is.....



This blows my mind it really does again Japanese Blue Grass (English)



When I heard this I thought it was a joke this is a piece on Steve martin doing blue grass.......







This was a quick post I don't really have the knowledge of music to really look a bunch of stuff up there is still a song I'm looking for but have no idea the band or song but oh well.... This beats posting pictures from the Bandits losing effort on Sat. night for now I guess.......
metalpeter - 05/10/11 17:36
The Linked song was pretty good ... Thanks
metalpeter - 05/10/11 17:32
He had a song that I didn't post cause it was the first one I found Steve Martin that is about how the Atheists have no songs... Everyone was laughing so I thought maybe this was just his new way to do comedy....

Did I mention that I'm bad at putting music into a category .... Hoping to next post about what I call "Pulp Music" I call it that cause Tarentino (On a side note How can I love his movies but yet can't spell his name ARGH!) puts it in like all of his movies in fact one of those songs is used by The Black Eyed Peas.... We shall see if this ever happens now to follow your link.....

The True Blood/Lightning Hopkins version of "Baby Please Don't Go" is classic blues - guitar, smoky vocals. My favorite version of that tune is probably the one from _Good Morning Vietnam_ by Them (Van Morrison's early band) :::link::: which is in a hard-driving rockabilly style (rockabilly being the fusion of country and R&B/blues that Elvis made famous). Lightning Hopkins is a gem.

Love the Japanese bluegrass! too funny. We export the strangest things. Even though he doesn't name it, Steve Martin is using the clawhammer style of banjo picking.

My Response to: "If I could live anywhere else I would choose to live in ...." suggested by paul
I admit the best part of answering that would be figuring out where to live... I would have to visit places like and not limited to Hong Kong, Seoul, Tokyo, San Diego, London, Montreal, Charlotte and all of Hawaii .

I would love to move someplace where it is warmer and were there is no snow.... As Great as San Fransisco would be Could go to 49ers games at least I don't know if the summers are warm enough... I admit I like the heat but not what the sun does to me ..... The Other thing is I want Hockey and Lacrosse and Football and my sports... But maybe if I was living someplace new the city or the beach would be the thing to be there for and not the sports......

My quick Pick is Toronto (minus you know all the international document stuff)... As much as I think I would Love NYC... With out ever been there I think it is to big... Toronto you get the big city with out the crazy of NYC.... Most things like bands and shows that tour go there... Not that I would want to be a leaf's fan but other then the NFL (they do want a team that isn't the bills) they have all the sports stuff... They have the stripclubs in the city as opposed to have to go to the burbs , from what I have heard you don't need to worry about sex services enslaving people or getting you locked up...

The thing is you can't really tell what a city it like to live in my visiting only.............

I haven't been in a long time.... Think I was a kid the last time.......
paul - 05/07/11 22:13
Ya I would never classify San franciscobas a warm place. I have been so cold the few times I was there.

My Response to: "What would I have done for a living in an alternate universe?" suggested by tinypliny
So To be honest I'm not sure what my profession would be cause there are a few I would like to do.. But I think it would have to be pro photographer in some form....

I love what Buffalo Bar Fly does... What a great idea it really is cool. I would love to be in some of those pictures right now out at Cinco De Mayo getting fucked up and eating and just taking anyone or anything home ok maybe there place even just a kinda cute girl with a dog and a gallon of Peanut Butter....HA. I think to take pictures of pretty girls and guys at a bar would be fun... But what might be even cooler is to come up with a company that could take it further..... Hey things get wild and crazy and you don't have a good camera with you so that is why you pay for some of their pictures.... Well this might be true once you leave the bar so you could have them escort or travel with you from bar to bar and even home.... This would be a good idea cause if things get crazy All parties should have digital copies of photos so none of them get posted by mistake..... Hey some girl giving head isn't going to get posted when he has the picture of your face and gross cock or something in your house that shows where you work.........

Taking pictures of Pro Wrestling (picture wise and athletic ability wise it is a sport) or some other sport would be great.. You get to be close to the team don't have to watch through the glass sometimes and I have seen some pictures that are so good they don't look real.... Would it be hard work yes! I bet it is very cut throat as well.........

Of course the photo takers of women with lovely ink and gorgeous breasts and great faces and all kinds of models would be a blast as well.... Plus you get to watch people paint them or you get to see boobs when they change poses so that would be a lot of fun as well..... Or why not take it one more step and take pictures on porn sets... Yeah at first it might be kinda odd Hey can you move you hand so we can see the head of the shaft thanks... Again it takes great ability cause some mags use cum shots... Yes I think it would also be weird at first but I think it would be fun also and hard work.... Of course there is all ways the chance that I could set up the camera to take shots every so often and star in the movie my self... Some Mags shot scenes and some photos are from shots so it would be good... I admit I have seen some bi sexual porn and it is kinda good( but only when the girl is still in the scene) and not sure if I could shot that in person oh yeah forgot this is the other universe so I could no problem..............
tinypliny - 05/26/11 22:14
Maybe you should get serious about professional photography and try your hand at composition principles. Who knows what opportunities the future might bring!
