Primus on Flashback Friday

October 10, 2008

Hey everybody, it’s Friday again! That actually means the opposite to me of what it means to most folks. Instead of blessed respite from office stuff, round these parts, it means three small people, 24/7, expecting to be fed and whatnot. Hell-o, what am I, your…Oh. Yeah. I am your mom. Shoot. All right then, let’s bust out a frozen pizza, shall we?

Anyway. In honor of this dubious thing we call Friday, I’m stealing borrowing an idea from Brenda over at Seriously, Mama. If you’re not reading her, go now. I’ll wait right here.

While you’re at it…I’m guest posting at Momma’s Tantrum today, while she lounges on the beach in Maui. No fair, I know. So while you’re blog hopping, go check out my love of all things XM.

Are you back? Kay. So for my first Flashback Friday, I’m busting out Primus’s “My Name is Mud”, because it introduced me to the slaphappy bass genius that is Les Claypool. The heaviness of that song, combined with goofiness and a slightly eerie key, delight me every time. I heard it today on…you guessed it…XM radio (also known as the device that allows me to pretend I’m still in high school) and it delivered, as always. Have a great weekend!
