Happy Birthday Michael Hutchence

January 21, 2013

bday

Y’all know I’m a huge fan of Prince and Michael Jackson. You may not know that I’m also a huge fan of Michael Hutchence and INXS. It’s the 22nd in Australia and today would have been his 53rd birthday. Regards to Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily Hutchence & the entire Hutchence family, the band INXS (Andrew Farriss, Jon Farriss, Tim Farriss, Kirk Pengilly, Garry Gary Beers), and all the friends and fans worldwide.

So check this out. About 8 or 9 years ago I bought a used copy of the Elegantly Wasted cd by INXS for $10.99 at a music store. I noticed today that it wasn’t in my iTunes so I pulled it out to load up. I noticed there’s writing all over the booklet. Could these be autographs from band members? Looks like it.

House of Pain 1992 – yes, that’s a Bomb t-shirt that Everlast is wearing. You can also spot Chuck D from PE wearing a Bomb t-shirt on one of their 12″ singles and an album. Maybe I’ll do another run of shirts someday.

I bought these patches at Winterland in the early 90s. I still have about 30 left of the Beasties.

This and That

Here’s a joke for you. David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen walk into a bar together… wait. Just realized the soundtrack to Batman Forever was pretty dope. My favorite magazines back in the day were The Source and Rolling Stone, now it’s Billboard and Pollstar. TV commercials trying to sell you something based on fear is f’ed up. I guess weak minded individuals fall for it. To the girl at RED last week. When you see a dj spinning records and they have a laptop, they are usually using Serato or Traktor to control their mp3s like records. They can not go online and play a song from Youtube. It doesn’t work that way. Facility Charge $2.50 + Convenience Charge $5.85 + Order Processing Fee $3.25 = i hate ticket fees. So Irving Azoff resigned as chairman of Live Nation and part of the reason is to avoid paying the higher tax rate on the money in 2013. No comment. Am I the only one that thinks George Michael could pull off the vocals perfectly for a cover of By My Side by INXS? According to articles when I deejay I should be dancing, making hearts with my hands, fist pumping, hand clapping and other antics to “connect with the crowd.” WTF are you even watching me for? YOU should be busy dancing. The music connects us all.
