Sometime after the speeches ( I think) a very nice lady asked
about the soundtrack.
...another BartCop error. It's hard to keep track of the
mistakes I made that night.
In the very first minutes of the night, the room wasn't quite
ready,
and the next time I looked up it was 8:30 and Carville was torching
that microphone.
We tried to get a CD on their system, but there was some management
problem and besides,
the buzz in the room was so loud, I don't think the music could've
been heard by anybody.
So here's the soundtrack nobody heard that night.
Disc One:
01 Push It, the song Garbage uses to start their shows
- great song.
02 Over my Head by King's X, an old negro spiritual from
a damn hard-rocking group.
03 another great Garbage song
04 Right Now by Van Halen, as in it was "right now" for
Julie
05 All Along the Watchtower from the U2 movie. It contains
the line
"All I have
is a red guitar, three chords and the truth." That
might ring a bell...
06 another great Garbage song
07 another great Garbage song
08 Goodbye to You by Scandal, a double-dipper for that
unholy, motherless bastard Ken Starr
09 South California Purples from Chicago One, before they
sold out
10 another great Garbage song
11 Dress You Up by Madonna, for all the people who bought
suits
12 Across 110th Street, from Jackie Brown, with the line,
"You don't
know what you'll do until you're put under pressure,"
13 another great Garbage song
14 Footstompin' Music by Grand Funk, because by know,
we'd be getting rowdy
15 For Once in My Life by Stevie Wonder, who Gov. Bush
waved to.
16 another great Garbage song
Disc Two:
01 I Fought the Law by the Clash - 'nuff said.
02 another great Garbage song
03 Over and Over by Madonna, a great girl-power song
04 Fortunate Son by Creedence - for the Unelected Idiot
05 another great Garbage song
06 Gimme Shelter by Grand Funk
07 Man, I Feel Like a Woman by Shania - a "Girls Night
Out" song
08 another great Garbage song
09 Can't Stop Falling by Cheap Trick
10 I am the Slime by the Great Frank Zappa - Frank never
knew how bad it would get.
11 another great Garbage song
12 another great Garbage song
13 I Was Made to Love Her - by Stevie - like we had a
choice
14 London Calling by the Clash "You
know what they say, well some of it was true!"
15 another great Garbage song
16 Guns of Brixton - a Clash primer for how to fight
17 I Saw Her Standing There live by the Beatles at BBC
18 Mi Carina by my good friend, the best guitar
in Texas, Rick del Castillo
19 another great Garbage song
20 Got Me Under Pressure by ZZ Top
Disc Three:
01 Julia by John Lennon - nice song
02 I Fought the Law by the Clash - party time at
Carville's!
03 another great Garbage song
04 Crossfire by SRV
05 Whatever Gets You Thru the Night by John Lennon
06 another great Garbage song
07 You're Not Alone in This World - Amy Grant,
08 Reach Out and I'll Be There - Four Tops
09 another great Garbage song
10 another great Garbage song - they have a LOT of good
songs...
11 Police and Thieves - the Clash
12 another great Garbage song
13 That Don't Impress Me Much by Shania - "you go, girl" song
14 Two Shots of Happy - Bono's
salute to Sinatra, probably the best on-command writing ever
(contrast it with Mccartney's pitiful "Freedom."
Bono took Frank's life and Frank's language
and distilled it into three minutes and nobody can do that.
F-ing nobody!
Example: There's the line
"Under pressure, but not bent out of
shape
Surrounded, we always found
an escape
Drove me to drink, but
hey that's not all bad
Two shots of happy, one
shot of sad."
Great songwriting in the extreme.
I'd like to play this song in Las Vegas this
year.
If BartCop Manor was on fire, I'd go back
in for this one...
15 Cup of Coffee, the best song Garbage ever did,
and that's saying something...
16 Viva Las Vegas - the ZZ version - hey, we gotta do
a Juliefest in Vegas.
ha ha
Julie does the roller coaster on top of the
Stratosphere
Julie leads 100 BartCoppers on the trek to
Area
51.
Hey, you think I'm kidding?
If we go to Area
51, and if the planes are flying
you'll see stuff that'll make your eyes scream,
"Liar!"
When your eyes lie to you, your mind defaults
to religion.
That a trick our parents played on us.
Area
51 is no joke.
How cool it would be if we all did Area
51?
Those Bullies in the white jeeps can be intimidating,
but Julie doesn't scare, remember?
ha ha
17 I Fought the Law by the Clash - party time at Carville's!
18 I am the Warrior, by Patty Smythe
Disc Four:
01 another great Garbage song
02 Do You Believe in Magic? The Spoonful - I'm old, sue
me...
03 Where's the Party? - another Madonna song.
We should hate her - she's a strong
woman...
04 another great Garbage song
05 another great Garbage song
06 Summerland, by King's X
07 another great Garbage song
08 I Fought the Law by the Clash - party time at
Carville's!
By Korsh, it would've been party
time at Carville's
09 another great Garbage song
10 another great Garbage song
11 Kind of a Drag - the Buckinghams
12 End of the World by U2
- one of the best rock songs ever writen
13 Push It, the song Garbage uses to start their shows,
again on purpose
14 Plush - STP - great song - Hall of Fame - hats off
to Scott and STP
15 another great Garbage song, one Shirley said defined
their 2002
16 Hot Dog - the Mighty Zeppelin - I thought it'd
be a kick if the ONLY song we heard
from the best band is history was a
country song about losin' yer boots in Tejas.
Jimmy Page is God - I can't change that
- Clinton can't, Bono can't, Shirley can't.
17 another great Garbage song - where "Send me an angel"
came from...
18 Now I'm Here - Queen's concert-opening number
19 Me & My Monkey - The Beatles, White Album - this
was our escape song.
I told Christian, when you hear "Me
& My Monkey," grab Julie and go for the cab,
because the next song could bring down
the house.
20 I Fought the Law by the Clash
So that's what we'll hear at JuliefestWest
That's why we need Vegas and LA, if for no other reason
that to hear this killer soundtrack.
