Blurbs

As of two days ago, the Jimi Hendrix Experience is jamming in the hereafter. RIP Mitch Mitchell. Mitch was to Jimi, as Jimmy Chamberlin is to Billy Corgan - both initially fish-out-of-water jazz drummers in the scope of rock music (and the fact that Jimi played the "Pumpkin chord" first).

Speaking of the Smashing Pumpkins, I'm going to review their music documentary If All Goes Wrong in the near future. I have yet to watch the second disc.

The RNC threw their former nominee John McCain under the bus. No, not the Straight Talk Express, as the GOP has yet to remember what that means exactly.

I am totally digging Amazon.com's MP3 Album Deal of the Day. In the MP3 top seller's list, one of the top three or so is the current deal of the day, or a briefly lingering deal from yesterday. Albums are usually on sale at about $1.99 - so if there are at least three good songs there, it's a definite deal.

That's all for today.
