Profit!<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NERzLlHo-D0\">The Cure - 10:15 Saturday Night<\/a>. Yeah, it's a little silly. But it's very catchy and definitely sets a mood. Been trying to listen to new-er Cure lately, and it just hurts my soul. And not in a dark and black Goth way, either.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=_ZUMg6Maht4\">The Who - Substitute (live)<\/a>. I like the song well enough, but after 45 seconds of listening to Pete talk to the crowd about all The Who's hit records, I skipped this. What a dumb intro.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=vozNQX6Ye1A\">Portishead - All Mine<\/a>. What a great album. Great band. For some reason, Portishead reminds me of a certain parking lot in Rochester, NY. Nothing big happened there; but I think it's when I decided I liked Portishead.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=HwIDcobO4l4\">Sonic Youth - Rain On Tin<\/a>. A decent new-ish SY song - one of my favorite post-Goo songs, actually. Eight minutes, mostly instrumental, which sounds like it could be a bit much. But it's got a nice jammy, organic feel, lots of different sections, and there's some nice Television-ish interlocking guitar bits near the end. Very nice.\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=V3k-wsbpTzg\">Horse Flies - Rub Alcohol Blues<\/a>. The Horse Flies are\/were(?) a uniquely semi-psychedelic, semi-electric, folk\/bluegrass band from upstate NY. My little circle of semi-hippie friends loved this album. I don't know if I'd be into the whole album, these days, but this one song still felt right.\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1. Shuffle-up five songs. 2. List em 3.
