Rugby Road Music
Posted on Tuesday, February 19, 2008I just collected my tickets for the Ireland-Scotland match.
Woo-hoo!
It’s the Bullet and myself on the road next Saturday, on that never-ending highway. Jest me an’ m’boy. Better record some drivin’ music.
Let’s see now.
Tom Waits is always good. Ol’ 55. Sounds about right.
And Guy Clark, seems appropriate. LA Freeway. Yup.
Hmm. Alabama 3, maybe. Woke Up This Morning.
Cripple Creek, and The Weight.
Tangled Up In Blue. Buckets of Rain.
This is getting easier. Long Shot Kick De Bucket. Psychokiller.
Born To Run.
Jimmy Jazz.
Workin’ for the Clampdown.
Now we’re rockin’.
Remington Ride. Take it away, boys! Jews for Jesus Blues. Here’s Eef Bardelay.
What about the Cramps? Bikini Girls With Machine Guns.
Or the Presidents of the USA? Didn’t hear them in a while. Back Porch. Lump. Naked and Famous.
I can’t see this being a problem. Eels!! Dog-faced Boy. Beautiful Freak. It’s a Motherfucker.
The Killers. Andy, you’re a Star. Mr Brightside.
Rilo Kiley. Better Son /Daughter
Jesus, this is all before I inflict the likes of Gram Parsons on poor Bullet. The poor bastard will be sorry he ever said wa-haaaayyyy! when I told him we had tickets. It’s also before I do any embarrassing Dad-things in the pub.
Woo-hoooo!!!

If you’re going to listen to all that, it will be a never-ending highway and you’ll miss the match. You need a faster car.

Doesn’t matter, for you will drive home with the victorious Flower Of Scotland ringing in your ears.

No maybe about it, darlin’. I can feel it in my water and if there’s one thing that’s never wrong it’s a Lewiswoman’s water. And in my bones, I feel it. And in my fillings too - I can feel a victory coming on in my fillings!

Hmm. Let’s wait and see.
Anyway, I’ll bring pics for the people.
Tomorrow, I head for Bruff to borrow the ancient, ceremonial Lens Our Fathers Loved.
Wish me luck.

I understand the bullit plays an insthrumint?
Dare I suggest you mozey over to Virgin and splash out 8Euro on “The Essential Curtis Mayfield” (Charly Records2CD collection)and/or 15Euro or less? on “Funk Vol 1″ (Absolute Grooves 2CD) - I guarantee ye’ll do serious bop-damage to the suspension of the ol Bockmobile…

I like The Seeker by The Who. http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=yFZHWGUz-t8
As a driving tune mind you, if I’m doing something else like travelling on a train I prefer the Chemical Brothers’ Star Guitar.
