Play That Skanky Music, Skank

Some of you might be too young to remember the movie "Silkwood", but for those of you who do remember it, I'd just like to say that I feel like it would take a wire-brush shower to feel clean again after watching this Paris Hilton video.

I know a lot of people think that musicians listen to their own music incessantly - in the car, at a party, while they're pretending to have sex with John Travolta when they're actually getting it on with Halle Berry - but I don't know any musicians that ever want to listen to their own music. It's like flipping through an album of photos of yourself getting kicked in the crotch by a donkey over and over and over and over again. You obsess over every little detail that you wish you could have changed, or how track 7 makes you look fat, or how the lyrics in track 2 should have been changed to reflect your feelings about that Benji guy on "So You Think You Can Dance?" who thinks he can sweat the gay right out of himself if he builds enough churches in Mexico.

Bottom line - There's nothing worse than "grooving" to your own record - I don't care HOW many times you've been videotaped fellating Rick Salomon.
