In memory of Taylor Hawkins
I’ve like the Junkies since the Trinity Sessions came out, recently I’ve been a fan of their Newport Folk Festival appearance. Especially “Those Final Feet”, “Follower 2”, and “Murder Tonight in the Trailer Park”
Hey all! Today’s first bit is brought to you by Sailor Jerry’s. Let that sailor in ya and you’ll have some fun.
Have you heard of Fugazi? (God I hope so) If ya need a reminder
Fugazi
Fugazi is an American post-hardcore band that formed in Washington, D.C. in 1986. The band consists of guitarists and vocalists Ian MacKaye and, bassist Joe Lally, and drummer Brendan Canty. They are noted for their style-transcending music, DIY ethical stance, manner of business practice, and contempt for the music industry. (bolding mine)
Anyway (Or anyways if’n you prefer) The song was inspired by the short-lived nature of (then-lead vocalist) Ian MacKaye’s previous band [Embrace]. Wanting to ensure the longevity of his new project, he was “absolutely determined that he was not going to make the same mistakes this time around […] It’s his song about waiting for the right people and the right moment.” Waiting Room. (Thanks wiki for that last bit). Waiting Room was released in 1988. You can hear it here.
If you haven’t heard live punk in a small venue you probably respect your self and others…
Anyway(s). Here Chili Peppers covering Waiting Room.
And here’s Arcade Fire’s cover. (iff’n yer gonna skip one skip this.)
And then there is this next cover. The Cleveland School of Rock House Band (The music version of theatre kids) picks Waiting Room as their last song.
Punk’s not dead.
One of my favorite bands. This is possibly my favorite song and it’s off my favorite album of theirs. Interersting fact, they have only played this song live a handful of times ever.

As a baritone/bass I think I’m attracted to Type O Negative cause I can sing along.
