I’m still so mad I found out about Hawkwind before I found out about Girlschool. Like, really? I sat all the way through like three Hawkwind albums! Ugh.
Backstory on some of this– my seatmate at work, the other half of my department, is a dude who’s in a hardcore band, who has spent decades of his life immersed in music, who used to run a recording studio, and who spent some time as a college radio DJ. (I’m not familiar with the specific genre he plays, but his band has opened for Judge twice, including like last week, so. That.)
He’s really good at music. And that includes music he doesn’t like. You like, I dunno, dubstep with horns? He can figure out where you’d get that. He’s got an encyclopedic knowledge of musical genre. And he kind of DJs for me, nearly every day. Even though he listens to Spotify and has ads, and I have a Google Play subscription with no ads, but anyway.
(We make up obscene punchlines for all the ads. “So I uh, um. I just want to say, um, if you um,” that ad? That’s a guy asking a girl to lick his balls. That’s what it’s about. Now every time it comes on we fall out laughing. No one else who works here knows what the fuck we’re talking about.)
