On this day in 1980, the South African government banned Pink Floyd's single 'Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2)' after Black children adopted the song as their anthem in protest against inferior education.

PIXIES
Surfer Rosa
2004 U.S. Reissue

Looks like I’m having a Pixies weekend at my place.
That’s how it starts.
You throw on one, & then you throw on ALL of em.

There’s nothing left to say about Surfer Rosa. It’s all been said before. An indie masterpiece, & somehow, it sounds better with each passing year.

Instructions For Starting An Indie Rock Band From Scratch:

1. Meet people
2. Get instruments
3. Buy copy of Surfer Rosa
4. Do what they do
5. Enjoy

So, I just called 867-5309, and I got connected to a vegan deli in Tampa, Florida.
I ordered a Cubano, fries, and a vegan meatball sub.

I've been thinking about this track a lot recently. This is pretty much what my brain sounds like all the time now. This whole thing. (Do not listen to if on hallucinogens.)
