I heard Austin musician Jesse Dayton live on the radio today. First time I'd heard him -- pretty good if you like country music -- and I do (and I have to add that I'm not talking about that Nashvegas crap, I mean the real thing). I liked his politics too, he made a plug for Chris Bell for guv over Kinky.Weirdly enough, one of his songs was picked for the soundtrack for Rob Zombie's B-grade horror movie, "The Devil's Rejects". For some reason, hard-core country music frightens people, but so does the lighthearted harmless stuff. Juxtaposition of brain-eating maniacs with Three Dog Night. Go figure.
The song they picked for the movie was this one, and is this a great country song title, or what?
I'm At Home Getting Hammered (While She's Out Getting Nailed)
Some more great titles from the Bango & Sullivan album:
Dick Soup
I Don't Give A Truck
I'm Trying To Quit, But I Just Quit Trying
Lord, Don't Let Me Die In A Cheap Motel
I Don't Give A Truck
I'm Trying To Quit, But I Just Quit Trying
Lord, Don't Let Me Die In A Cheap Motel
That last one reminds me of something Billy Joe Shaver said in an interview on NPR's Fresh Air (he has a heart condition but keeps on playing gigs):
"Oh Lord, I don't want to die in Pflugerville"

I'm At Home Getting Hammered (While She's Out Getting Nailed)
That HAS to be the greatest title ever. the lyrics must be a hoot.
BTW, this obscure blogger thinks your blog rocks.
It's been a hard days night, and I've been working like a dog, came home to find her screwing with a hog. ... LOL
[grin] nothing's more bluntly to-the-point than a country lyric! haha! Very poetic.
I am STILL laughing my pale, skinny ass aff over that classic title. The Lyrics must be a trip. and BTW, I AM at home getting hammered....
