It’s been a long time comin’, but the Superfly folks just posted three videos of Oysterhead’s performance from the Bonnaroo festival on its 2007 website. Rubberneck Lions, Shadow of a Man, and
If like really doesn’t attract like, oft-disgruntled NBA forward and aspiring rap star Ron Artest must be awfully pissed about String Cheese Incident’s retirement. After a neighbor blew the whistle on the h3tty Sacramento Kings star, Artest is now under criminal investigation on suspicion of animal cruelty:
A notice from animal control posted at the front of Artest’s Loomis home indicated he is under investigation for failing to feed and nourish the dog.
Neighbors said the dog is often left alone in the yard for months at a time without food and water. They said animal control has taken custody of his dogs on at least three other occasions.
Our friend Chilly Jackwater alerted us to this astonishing ::malnourishes dog:: development, and he recently also overheard Artest complaining that “The Bomb Factory is over-fuckin’-rated, man. You heard??? OVER-RATED. I’ll take anything from December ’95 over that bunk shit any fuckin’ day, puh-leez.” No word on whether Ronnie loves Punch You in the Eye above all other Phish tunes.
You ask me, I think Artest’s doctors been slinging him bunk meds for years…

I certainly didn’t intend for the oversight, seeing as women fucking rock. So this edition of Grousing The Aisles focuses on five acts that are led by women. Long live Vagina!
Bonnie Raitt 09/14/85 SBD (FLAC):
Every note Bonnie Raitt sings or plays has an incredibly sexy yet raw tone. She is an intense performer who empties the tank at every gig. Before Raitt hit the big time with the success of Nick of Time, the Queen of Blues headed out on tour with an incredible backing band featuring Ivan Neville in 1985. This show from the Santa Cruz County Fair sounds incredible and features scorching renditions of Tell Me Something Good, Lively Up Yourself and Love Me Like A Man. Oh the things I’d do to Bonnie Raitt, the sexiest 57-year-old alive.
