so here is the jumpin’ JIVE coming out of the BVD Bucket of WTF-it on this monday holiday morning.  watch out, it gets kinda jittery……

English Beat–mirror in the bathroom

The Who–the seeker

Country Joe & the Phish–flyin’ high

Velvet Underground–who loves the sun

Heaven 17–(brothers and sisters) we don’t need this fascist groove thang

Paul Simon–paranoia blues

Brian Auger and the Oblivion Express–whenever you’re ready

Putumayo World Music–Doly Doly

The Dead–bertha

Sly and the Family Stone–dance to the music

Prince–jam of the year

Bob Wills and the Texas Playboys–bubbles in my beer

Jerry Band–how sweet it is

Laurie Anderson–born never asked

Albert King–laundromat blues

Sam Butera & the Witnesses–dig that crazy chick

please note the last six songs…..hopping from Prince to Bob Wills to Jerry G to Laurie A to Albert King to Sam Butera shows off a nice streak of ADVANCED SCHIZOCLECTIC ULTRA-JIVE.  where we say hold on and enjoy the multi-genre ride!  flingin’ musical noodles all over the dang kitchen…….

to back up the assertions made in the previous rant, seen below, just look at these stats released by the pershing county sheriff last year after Burning Man 2017.  these are the drugs confiscated by cops, listed in descending order……

818 grams of psilocybin mushrooms (about 30 ounces)

23 ounces of pot (more mushrooms than pot?  and now you know why blinky lights kick ass in Black Rock City! )

12 ounces of Ecstasy (Molly, MDMA)

almost ONE OUNCE of coke

217 hits of LSD

4 ounces of Ketamine (!)

about a half ounce of METH

 

and remember, these are figures for a city of 75,000.

gee, where are all the OPIATES?  where are all the big bad OXYs…..contin and codone?  how about all the JUNK/HORSE/SMACK?

Burning Man is all about ECSTATOGENS.  not OPIATES.  get a better cover story for hassling burners, feds.  put a little time into it next year, ok?  cool?  because this opiate cover story is BEYOND BALONEY!

 

so the Bureau of Indian Affairs has sent a formidable squadron of its cops and drug dogs to beautiful downtown Nixon, Nevada. Why? well, the official line was that, you know, since there’s a horrible problem with oxycontin and oxycodone abuse on the reservation, the BIA better show up to help because all these drug-soaked burners will be driving through to prey upon the helpless addicts of the rez, and…….

ok, ok, hold on for a cotton-pickin’ minute. that’s the biggest pile of poop cover story we’ve heard in quite a few moons. Burners looking to sell buckets and buckets of opiates to tribal addicts? PUH-LEEZ!  Jesus H. Roosevelt Christ. anybody who has even the slightest clue about anything connected to general reality knows that Burners are to oxycontin what Donald F. Trump is to pole-vaulting.  this BIA infestation is some good old-fashioned “hippie hassling,” the likes of which haven’t been seen since rednecks shot Dennis Hopper at the end of Easy Rider about 50 years ago.

And this bullshit is occurring in a state where MARIJUANA IS NOW LEGAL.  of course, the reservation is FEDERAL PROPERTY, an island of land where pot is still illegal, surrounded by a state that no longer gives a fuck about the evil weed. But while the BIA is lurking in Wadsworth and Nixon, be aware and take care as you drive along Nv. Highway 447.  make sure you follow the posted speed limit. if you’re driving 27 in a 25, you’re gonna get pulled over.  also make sure your tail lights and brake lights work.  if they don’t, you’re gonna get offed.  pure and simple.  the cop will approach the driver, and the other cop with the dog will begin circling the car.  that’s the reality until the wednesday after Labor Day.

here are the 10 songs that closed out the BVD Bucket O’ Tunes on tuesday August 28.

david bromberg–kansas city

martha and the vandals–dancin in the street

bobby blue bland–stormy daniels

the specials–a message to rudy

los lobos–down on the riverbed

jj cale/eric clapton–when this war is over

neil young and crazy horse–everybody knows this is nowhere

the B-52s–girl from ipanema goes to greenland

REM–nightswimming

paul simon–loves me like a rock

THIS SAMPLE INDICATES WHY 2.4% OF AMERICA WOULD SING OUR PRAISES TO THE SKIES……IF THEY ONLY KNEW OF OUR EXISTENCE.
