WASTIN' AWAY AGAIN
IN BURRITOVILLE

― astor riviera (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 14 October 2005 15:34 (twenty years ago)

burritos! burritos!
cutty likes burritos!
He rides a bike and smokes lots of weed,
He thinks "banging all the time" is a most worthy deed,
He wants to lie on a beach and listen to Creed,
and eat burritos burritos burritos!

i like:

"I Can't Explain"
"I Can See for Miles"
"Magic Bus"
"Baba O'Riley"
"Substitute"

that's it.

― hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 14 October 2005 16:38 (twenty years ago)

adam your musical needs a little more drama

the noise board only gives you drama when you DON'T ask for it. It's some total reverse psychology bullshit!

― Lion-O (nordicskilla), Friday, 14 October 2005 16:43 (twenty years ago)

June is busting out all over!
All over the meadow and the hill.
Buds are busting out of bushes
And the little river pushes
Every little wheel that wheels behind a mill.

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Friday, 14 October 2005 16:58 (twenty years ago)

I'm a girl, and by me that's only great!
I am proud that my silhouette is curvy,
That I walk with a sweet and girlish gait
With my hips kind of swivelly and swervy.

I adore being dressed in something frilly
When my date comes to get me at my place.
Out I go with my Joe or John or Billy,
Like a filly who is ready for the race!

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Friday, 14 October 2005 16:59 (twenty years ago)

Are these supposed to be convincing us to like The Who?

― Lion-O (nordicskilla), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:03 (twenty years ago)

One girl's called Jean Marie
One little girl's called Felicity
Another little girl was Sally Joy
The other was me, and I'm a boy

My name is Bill, and I'm a head case
They practice making up on my face
I feel lucky if I get trousers to wear
Spend days just taking hairpins from my hair

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:06 (twenty years ago)

Out of Tim's list, I like (not saying much because I only recognize about 1/3 of those):

I Can't Explain
So Sad About Us (this is a great song!)
I Can See for Miles

I am really turned off by the Who. i saw Tommy when i was pretty young and maybe that's what's at work. i need to hear more, that's for sure.

― gygax! (gygax!), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:09 (twenty years ago)

I don't think I like them.

― Lion-O (nordicskilla), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:11 (twenty years ago)

OMG TOTAL NOIZE DUDE THEME!!!

Wanna play cricket on the green
Ride my bike across the street
Cut myself and see my blood
Wanna come home all covered in mud

― Tim Ellison (Tim Ellison), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:13 (twenty years ago)

I think I'm alone in believing that John Entwistle's songs are some of the Who's best. Heaven and Hell, Doctor Doctor, Boris the Spider, Cousin Kevin. He's much darker than Townshend. I don't know how noise dudes could hate on the Who though. The Tommy movie alone justifies everything else.

"Whiskey Man" is pretty good.

NOIZE BEFORE DINNER
a musical comedy

The stage is dimly lit with only scraps of newspaper and other litter adorning. The backdrop depicts a white rickety fence, charming in its dilapidation. Weeds and flowers thread themselves around the posts. Above, the sky is pale, clear blue, with only the thinnest whisps of cloud. Enter JON, IAN, and CUTTY stage right. They carry baseball mitts, and bats are slung over their shoulders. Their clothes are dirty from the game, but they hadn't been washed for some time before then.

JON: That sure was a swell softball game!
IAN: Too bad we lost again.
CUTTY: I tell ya I was safe when I slid home in the third inning. Safe by a mile!
IAN: Aw, quit whinin. They beat us fair 'n square.
JON: We'll lick em next weekend, don't you worry about that.
Enter ROXY, ROSEMARY, and LAURA stage left.
ROSEMARY: Whatcha guys doing?
CUTTY: BOY stuff.
IAN: Not playin with dolls or nothin.
JON: What're you doin here, anyway?
LAURA: We wanted to see if we could play softball too.
JON, IAN, CUTTY: laughter
IAN: Aw, everybody knows girls can't play softball!
JON: Yeah, if you wanna play softball you gotta get dirty.
CUTTY: And girls can't get dirty!
ROXY: Aw, we'll show you boys! Someday we'll show you girls can do just as much as boys.
LAURA: We might even beat you!
CUTTY: That'll be the day!
ROXY: We'll show ya...

MUSICAL NUMBER: WHY CAN'T WE PLAY?

Enter ANDREW stage right, shirtless and running his fingers through his long, flaxen mane of hair.
ANDREW: Well, we sure whooped you today at softball, and how!
IAN: Aw, you don't gotta rub it in, ya know.
CUTTY: Yeah, you fag!
JON: Now, Cutty, let's not use language like that. Only SOME people call other people names.
ROXY: (aside) I wish Cutty would call me a name...
ANDREW: Don't josh me! I've heard you call each other names like the dickens.
IAN: It's different when it's just us.
JON: Yeah. We're Noize Dudes!
ANDREW: Noize Dudes?
CUTTY: That's right. We can call each other all the names we like, cuz at the end of the day, we know we're buds.
ANDREW: Is that what you Noize Dudes do?
JON: Yeah! That's what us Noize Dudes do.

MUSICAL NUMBER: THAT'S WHAT US NOIZE DUDES DO

ANDREW: Yeah, well, I don't see what's so special about being a Noize Dude. We still beat you at softball!
CUTTY: But we'll beat you yet!
ANDREW: You're the one to talk! You struck out four times today.
CUTTY: But if you pitched me one right now I'd whack it straight to Kalamazoo.
ANDREW: Let's give it a go, then.
CUTTY: Alright.
IAN: Yeah, Cut, you can do it!
ANDREW takes a baseball from JON and walks to center stage. CUTTY spits in the dirt and readies his bat.
LAURA: You guys! You guys! You can't do this here! What if you put out somebody's window? What if it was Old Lady Kate's!
IAN: Aw, that ole hag? What'll she do to us?
ROXY: She'll put a hex on you. She's a mason.
LAURA: What's a mason?
ANDREW: It's somebody who builds houses.
ROXY: No, dummy, not that kinda mason. These masons are different. They meet in darkest night and practice arcane rituals. I hear they even sacrifice children sometimes. Any one of us could be next. Even... She suddenly turns on Laura and grabs her arm. You!
LAURA: squeals
The boys laugh.
JON: Aw, that's a bunch of hokey bolokie. She can't do nothin to us.
CUTTY: 'Sides, I'll hit it way higher than any stupid window.
ANDREW: You done jabberin and ready for strike out number five?
CUTTY: Let 'er rip!
ANDREW pitches the ball and CUTTY hits it. Everyone watches a moment as it soars over the fence. In a moment, the sound of breaking glass is heard.
JON: Holy smokes, Cut! You did put out somebody's window!
IAN: I wonder whose.
Enter OLD LADY KATE St. Clair stage left. The girls squeal and try to hide. Andrew fixes his hair and wipes the dirt from his glistening bare chest. The Noize Dudes look panicky and try to run.
OLD LADY KATE: Don't you be going anywhere! I caught you fair and even. You're the ones who put out my window, I just know it. But which one was it... She corners the Noize Dudes and studies each one's face. Was it you? You do have the guilty look about you. Or you! I know when a boy's been bad. You can see it in his eyes. Not like Andrew here. He's a good boy. And so handsome!
CUTTY: W-we didn't do nothin.
OLD LADY KATE: We didn't do ANYthing, if you please? First grammar, then the empire, as my daddy used to say. And look how I turned out! A far thread indeed from you scoundrels, with your loud music and yelling and running around all the time. What's going to become of you?
JON: We're going to be famous musicians one day!
IAN and CUTTY: Yeah!
OLD LADY KATE: Ha! Oh, isn't that the richest. People don't want to hear the music you like. It's...it's...
JON, IAN, CUTTY: Noise!
OLD LADY KATE: Yes, noise.

MUSICAL NUMBER: NO NOISE IS GOOD NOISE

OLD LADY KATE: So who's going to fess up to breaking my window, hm? The Dudes look at one another, but no one says anything. No one, then, eh? Well, we'll see if you're so tongue tied after I sell your precious baseball field!
IAN: What?? You can't do that?
CUTTY: That's the only field in town!
OLD LADY KATE: And it's my property. A good little spot it is, too. A lot of interest in it, I tell you. And it will be sold in three days! Let me call my banker now. Have fun, boys!
Exit OLD LADY KATE stage right, laughing. The Noize Dudes sit down stage center, dejected.
ANDREW: Hey, fellas, it's not so bad. We can find another field. Don't look so glum. It'll all work out.
They don't respond and ANDREW exits stage left.
LAURA: Maybe we should leave them alone.
ROXY: Yeah.
Exit LAURA, ROXY, and ROSEMARY stage right.
CUTTY: What're we gonna do?
IAN: Find another baseball field, I guess.
JON: If only we could get enough money to buy the field ourselves.
IAN: How much money you got?
CUTTY: rifling through his pockets I've got a nickel. And a dried-up Jolly Rancher.
IAN: Yuck.
JON: How about you?
IAN: I spent my last bits on Moon Pie two days ago.
JON: Crickets.
CUTTY: Maybe there's some way we can raise money.
IAN: How? Like a lemonade stand?
CUTTY: Yeah! I made three whole dollars on mine last summer!
IAN: We'll need more than that to save the field.
JON: Wait! I've got it!
IAN, CUTTY: What?
JON: We'll put on a show! A Noize show!
IAN: A Noize show?
JON: Yeah! We can play intense free-form rock with irregular time signatures and rhythms!
CUTTY: That's a great idea!
IAN: We can do it in my pop's barn.
JON: Yeah. This could work. This just might work.

MUSICAL NUMBER: IT'S A NOIZE SHOW

The Boys - Big River

If the bunch of us all stick together
And we all go down as one
We could be highway robbers
We could be killers just out to have fun

And if any of you can't keep a secret
We'll cut your throat if you tell
Then lay down 'neath six feet of ground
'Cause we were born to raise hell
Chorus:
All together now we are the boys
All together forever and always
All together now we are the boys
We're together forever and always

If the bunch of us all, now listen,
'Cause here's the part I like the best

If we all got a hold of some horses
We could ride like the boys out West
We could hoot shoot, and we could holler
We could ride like the devil wind
Then go back to the cove and sleep all day
And do it the next night again

(Repeat Chorus)

If the bunch of us all stick together
And we all go down as one
We could be highway robbers
We could be killers just out to have fun

And if the bunch of us all form a circle
And surround all the ladies of the town
I said hey, hey hey we'll take them to the cove
And dance them till they all fall down
(Repeat Chorus Twice)

― Roxymuzak, Mrs. Carbohydrate (roxymuzak), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:50 (twenty years ago)

are there beach boys covers on the xtra disc of the who sell out? someone played that for me once... there are some damn fine who moments, but all being all, I find them generally confusing and disapointing. they're a band i always wanted to find more "amazing stuff" from.

and dan's entirely OTM with the "a quick one" performance in RNR Circus. I now really see what it is people go on about kieth moon for. (and if i were the stones i wouldn't have wanted to be so upstaged on my tv special either)

― bb (bbrz), Friday, 14 October 2005 19:11 (twenty years ago)

no beach boys covers, sorry. I know what you mean about confusing, but I find it more interesting. Just a weird band with a weird history. 4 dudes who genuinely hate each other. And just amazing musicians, esp when you realize they're just a power trio. I like daltry ok sometimes, but sometimes you hear Pete singing and you're like, wait, why aren't they a trio? The Who Sell Out has been a favorite record of mine forever. Other then that, i can't say I'm a big fan of any particular record, just songs here and there. Watching the Kids Are Allright helps put things in perspective, even with some later staged performances.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 14 October 2005 20:18 (twenty years ago)

Somewhere they do a cover of Barbara Ann as well as Bucket T by Jan & Dean.

The "Kids Alright" movie has the "Quick One" clip from "R&R Circus", which alone should convert anyone. Amazing.

The Who Sell Out is just really good.

"I Can't Explain" is like the perfect rock single. It's got everything.

you have to get Kids are Alright on DVD, the original theatrical version/VHS only has a clip of the Quick One Performace, when they put out the new DVD, they re-edited the full clip into it.

For what it's worth, I really loved the Stones' performance in Rock-n-Roll Circus as well.

MAKE A SONG ABOUT IAN GETTING NEW CLOTHING.

IAN WOULD HAVE GONE OUT TONIGHT
BUT HE HADN'T GOT A STITCH TO WEAR
SO HE BOUGHT NEW CLOTHING
AND A RIBBON FOR HIS HAIR

OL' SWEATSHIRT FELL APART IN THE WASH TODAY
NOW IT'S JUST A MEMORY FADING TO GREY
JUST LIKE MY OL' SWEATSHIRT WAS. HEY.
