    "Hey, T-Bone, what's your sign?
    I blinked and answered 'Neon', I thought I'd
    blown her mind. You asked me so many questions, what answers should I chose? Is it paranoia or just existensial blues?"


By TBone on Thursday, August 10, 2000 - 06:38 pm:

    I can't help myself.

    One of my favorite lines has to be:

    I cry out, "My name is TBone!" As a hound-dog digs a hole

    oh, and it's not just paranoia... It's schizoid paranoia.

    I also like "Is this really Butte, Montana, or just Existential Blues?

    And of course, "I'd rather have this bottle in front of me than a frontal labotomy!"

    When I get home, I'll put up a link to mp3 and text versions.

    Thanks Trace.

    Woah. Power blink again.


By Trace on Thursday, August 10, 2000 - 06:44 pm:

    Cool, I NEED to download the mp3.

    "Colonel Sanders? Oh what a bore"

    Every since I saw your name, that song has been running through my head

    "we are the lolipop kids, the lolipop kids, the lolipop kids......."

    Let your hair down baby, 'n let's have a natural ball
    Let your hair down baby, 'n let's have a natural ball
    'Cause when you aren't happy, it ain't no fun at all

    You can't take it with you, that's one thing for sure
    You can't take it with you, that's one thing for sure
    There's nothing wrong with you, baby, that a good T-Bone shuffle can't cure

    -"T-Bone Shuffle"

    That's good. 'cause that's where my name came from.

    My upload is amazingly slow. Here's the link, but don't try and get it for another hour or more... You won't get the whole thing if you do.

    http://216.166.147.78/~tbone/TBone_Stankus-Existential_Blues.mp3

    I found a few places where people typed the lyrics, but none of them are quite right. I'll fix one and put it up here for those who don't want to, or can't get the mp3, and for those who get it and can't keep up with what he's saying.


By TBone on Thursday, August 10, 2000 - 08:30 pm:

    dbone. That's pretty cool. where can I get that?

    forgot to put the name of the artist. it's t-bone walker. he was the first bluesman to use an electric guitar (starting from the 30's) and pretty much invented rock guitar. he's also a texan, i might add.

    i dunno - find him in the blues section of your local music store. i'm sure there are mp3's out there, but they'd probably suck.


By TBone on Thursday, August 10, 2000 - 09:37 pm:

    cool, thanks, droop.

    The mp3 is uploaded and operational.

    Thanks for the MP3!
