    The Money Shot: The 'Mats Would Probably Just Trash The Joint...

    "The Replacements -
    What the Velvet Underground was to the '60s, the Replacements were to the '80s. Consigned to the backwaters of commercial success, the Minneapolis-based band nonetheless laid the groundwork for the alternative-rock explosion that took hold with Nirvana. Buoyed by his raggedly empathetic 'mates, frontman Paul Westerberg wrote brilliant songs that have since been covered by everyone from Kelly Willis to Shawn Colvin to Glen Campbell."

    The Money Shot: Ok, Who Had 12 Months In The Moss-Hince Pool?

    "Jamie told her he was fed up with her reluctance to stop partying and focus on normality. We have heard it all before but this time friends felt her attitude was very different. They just don’t see eye-to-eye. When their relationship is good it’s amazing but when it’s bad it’s a tragedy."

    The Money Shot: Why Would Apple Follow Napster Over The Edge?

    "I'm not certain how big the consumer (adoption) is going to be... When people think of subscriptions, they think of their magazines and newspapers. When I stop my New Yorker subscription, (the publisher) doesn't come to my house and take back old issues...even though my wife may want him to."

    - Should Apple take a chance with music subscriptions?

    The Money Shot: Nick Cave Goes "Obscene" Over Britney...

    "Good music, bad music, whatever. You can’t listen to a Britney Spears song without thinking about Britney Spears, can you? She’s an extreme example, but that’s what art is. It’s a very generous act. It’s giving a part of yourself, or opening a part of yourself up for people to investigate. That sounds slightly obscene but there it is."

    The Money Shot: This Guy Needs An iPod...

    "Why do I own a Spizz Energi CD which has just one track I actually like? Why do I own four different versions of Bowie's Ziggy Stardust? In my darker moments, I worry that the house will catch fire and I will hear a distant voice of a fireman moaning, "We can't get to him, boss. He's stuck behind a wall of Style Council boxed sets... Enough is enough. It is going to have to stop. I am going back to the purity of my youth. Nobody - even a journalist hanging on to most of the little buggers "for research" - should own more than 200 albums. Thus, in the next few weeks I am going to whittle my collection down to a century of greats."

    The Money Shot: Evidently That Half-Assed Pop CD Was All Part Of Jenny Lewis' Plan...

    "The truth is, I turned myself into a fake pop star for ‘Under the Blacklight,’...People like to think Warner Brothers molded us into this pop band, but that’s what we really wanted to do, and at the time I thought that is what I wanted for that record. I was very capable of singing pop songs and strutting around in hot pants. That’s one aspect of my personality. But do I think that personality best suits the songs I write? No way."

    The Money Shot: Airborne Toxic Event Shoots Back At Super-Indie Fab Pitchfork...

    "Anyway we have to admit that we found ourselves oddly flattered by your review. I mean, 1.6? That is not faint praise. That is not a humdrum slagging. That is serious fist-pounding, shoe-stomping anger. Many publications said this was among the best records of the year. You seem to think it's among the worst. That is so much better than faint praise."

    The Money Shot: Jesus Loves The Hold Steady?

    "There's lots of debauchery as well as religious iconography in most of these songs... Finn is a barstool poet of the highest order, a rock 'n roll Jack Kerouac. And Stay Positive is a gritty, supremely uncomfortable masterpiece, a Christ-haunted work that finds glimmers of glory even in the gutter."

    The Money Shot: Ted Leo Speaks Out on RNC Violence, Releases Charity EP...

    "The surveillance, pre-emptive detention, arrest, and beating of journalists, protesters, and watchdogs by the St. Paul police department, the Ramsey County sheriff's department, and the FBI was so egregious that it couldn't be allowed to pass without comment... Real people were hurt in St. Paul, and real people have bills to pay, and real people need funding to continue their good works. We (the band and I) were all feeling these events as deeply as we could from our 1200 mile remove, and so as not to feel entirely powerless, and in an attempt to contribute SOMETHING to that continuation of those good works, we wrote a song and recorded it, along with another new one we'd already been working on that's pertinent to election time politics, and two covers we enjoy and that also have timely sentiments."

    The Money Shot: Jack White... A Pepsi Drinker?

    "Jack White was commissioned by Sony Pictures to write a theme song for the James Bond film Quantum of Solace, not for Coca-Cola. Any other use of the song is based on decisions made by others, not by Jack White. We are disappointed that you first heard the song in a co-promotion for Coke Zero, rather than in its entirety."

    The Money Shot: Maybe The Repubs Should Try Uncle Ted's 'Wango Tango'...

    "Campaign soundtracks inevitably pose problems for Republicans. Jackson Browne, Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart, John Mellencamp and Van Halen (well, three-fourths of it, anyway) have objected to the McCain-Palin campaign's use of their hits. In 1984, Bruce Springsteen famously repudiated the Reagan re-election campaign's use of "Born in the U.S.A." One can only go to the pop-country well so many times. And suspected sympathizers such as ZZ Top and Charlie Daniels have been coy about their party affiliation. Where's a Republican pol to turn for an anthem from a politically "safe" artist?"

    "I realize that when i first started this job I slagged a few people off when I probably shouldn't have and I have been opinionated about some things, but I haven't said a bad word about anyone for a long time, even when I have wanted to, even when people have tried to start feuds and said horrible things about me when they'd never even met me, when they'd based an opinion on me because of something they'd read. It's hurtful, but it's fine if you want to print a picture of me and say how awful I look, how much weight I've put on or how terrible my choice of clothes were that day."

    The Money Shot: Wasilla Rocker Says Palin Is The Last Thing We Need...

    "Because we don’t need it" was something that has been taught to me every day of my life through these amazing people and to watch Sarah Palin get so much attention based on what? 2 years as Governor of the State of Alaska? Or is it based on her time as the mayor of Wasilla? The town of 5,000 at the time.

    "Because we don’t need it."

    We don’t need drilling in some of our most beautiful and untouched land. We need to work towards options. We should be investing and working towards clean fuels. We don’t need to be draining our planet of every last drop before moving on to the next. Sarah Palin disagrees

    We needed votes to add the polar bear to the endangered species list. (I know, I know, that polar bear rug would really bring the room together!). Sarah Palin disagreed

    We don’t need aerial hunting… Again. We do NOT need this. I don’t know of any true Alaskan that feels it is good sport to shoot an animal from a plane. Sarah Palin disagrees

    We don’t need book burners and censors. Sarah Palin pushed to get the librarian of Wasilla fired when certain books were not removed from the public library. Who else in history has banned books? Not very good company is it?

    We don’t need more debts. Palin spent 15 million on a new sports center in the valley, leaving the small town of Wasilla, Alaska in debt to the amount of 22 million. (That’s 22 million more than the debt she took on when taking on this lovely playtime as mayor.) 15 million just for a new sports center.

    We don’t need family feuds interfering with duties. I know you feel your ex-brother-in-law was a dick… but trying to get him fired based on this may cause a little trouble. Sarah?

    We don’t need another vote against gay marriage. This is just standard every day equal rights being overlooked. Sarah Palin disagrees.

    We don’t need to overlook global warming. Science can now tell us "Yup. That is happening.” Not my words, that is science speak. Sarah Palin disagrees.

    We don’t need a wolf in sheep’s clothing… or a sheep in wolves clothing, depending on how you look at it. She has billed her self as this overly average "hockey mom" and it is just not what I see. I see the sport hunter, the censor, choice taker, the revelations reader, and the high school cheerleader. It is endlessly embarrassing to watch people fall all over this idea. This is not my Alaska. The Alaska I know.

    What we do need is love and respect for one another and respect for the world we live in."


    - John Gourley of Portugal. The Man, who grew up in Wasilla, Alaska, the home of VP candidate Sarah Palin, Palin, Because We Don’t Need It

    Political Justice: 10 Things Every American Should Know About John McCain...

    Because this election is too important to remain silent, Musical Justice is going to have a daily political post between now and November 4th.

    Ten Things Every American Should Know About John McCain

    1. John McCain was NOT born in the United States. He was born in Panama. No U.S. President was ever born outside the United States.

    2. McCain attended the US Naval Academy where he ranked 894th out of 899 in his graduating class.

    3. After returning from Vietnam, McCain had extramarital affairs, ultimately resulting in his divorce from his first wife who had been crippled in an automobile accident. McCain began dating his current wife, Cindy, before his divorce was granted. His divorce was final in April 1980 and he married Cindy just one month later in May. His children did not attend.

    4. In 1983 as a Republican Congressman, McCain voted against the establishment of a federal Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.

    5. If elected, McCain would be the oldest first term president ever at the age of 72. McCain is a cancer survivor with a family history of heart problems. As part of his 2008 campaign, he released his medical records which were over 1500 pages, but only made them available for 3 hours and only to hand-selected members of the media. No copies, cell phones or internet access were allowed during the 3 hours and the records couldn't leave the room.

    6. According to Congressional Quarterly, in 2007 McCain voted in support of the Bush Administration position 95% of the time, making him the Senate’s most consistent supporter of President Bush.

    7. McCain on economics: "I'm going to be honest: I know a lot less about economics than I do about military and foreign policy issues. I still need to be educated."

    8. McCain on how much money it takes to be rich: "I think if you're just talking about income, how about $5 million?"

    9. McCain on the Iraq War: “I don’t think Americans are concerned if we’re there for a hundred years, or a thousand years, or ten thousand years.”

    10. McCain on computers "I am an illiterate that has to rely on my wife for all of the assistance I can get.”

    The Money Shot: Prefix Takes A Swing At Top 10 Alt-Country CDs...

    "6. My Morning Jacket: It Still Moves
    Jim James and company skew more toward the jam band end of the country spectrum, but at its heart It Still Moves is barroom country in the tradition of the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Hank Williams Jr. The alt-country credentials of It Still Moves are summed up on “Golden,” where James observes “people always told me that bars were dark and lonely and talk is always cheap and filled with air” over a buttery guitar line. If this were the Seventies, there would have been a movie of the week made about it starring the band."
