Oh, wow. Is it already Friday? I haven’t prepared a DJ post this week and am blaming the holiday on Monday for throwing me off.
Since I’m doing this at the last minute, let’s keep it topical and dedicate this week’s music thread to Roseanne’s career or rather, the sunset of it.
Let’s have music featuring:
- Planet of the Apes – Songs referencing gorillas, monkeys, baboons, evolution, cavemen, etc.
- Off (Francis Scott) Key – Remembering Roseanne’s national anthem performance that nearly wrecked her career the first time around. I’d like to see some horribly sung songs. These can be talentless lead singers in known bands or really bad covers of great songs.
- Ambien Effect – Video of artists performing drunk or stoned. Like Eric Clapton laying down for an entire concert.
Here’s this week’s playlist, starting off with official ceremony.
Dedications! Uh, dedications….right.
Yeah, I didn’t do any. I overslept. Because of Ambien.
I think this is what you are looking for. To be fair, Hoon did manage to perform at an acceptable level here, but he was high as fuck.

How about a song by Gorillaz? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1V_xRb0x9aw

Do you love your monkey, or do you love me? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHb2XYeXcJI
Do the Evolution by Pearl Jam – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aDaOgu2CQtI
This may actually hit all 3 – Hey, Hey, We’re the Monkees.
#3’s!
Mescaline, man. Soul Sacrifice – Santana at Woodstock.
Perhaps my favorite story about passed out performances.
With the actual performance from Halpin after Moon passed out – Spoonful
#2 – Anything sung by Spencer Jones of Redhill. I’ve seen this guy perform several times live, and he can’t hit a note to save his life without mixing, or someone shouting the note in his ear.

Oh, so we are using 2 names now? Do I need to put on a tie?
Slacker!!!
Zurvan, you are the bomb for posting that Santana song. I’ve only watched that clip and the whole Woodstock movie about a million times, when music meant something.
And 2 good picks by Lurking.
This thread needs my favorite episode of Darkplace: The Apes of Wrath. The action starts around 17:45.

Since we are being creative today, I’m going to dedicate this Nick Cave masterpiece to ol’ Roseanne “just for the joy of it”:

There was a kind of Planet of the Apes craze in the early to mid Seventies. This is probably one of the better efforts:

Ambien Effect
How blitzed do you have to be to not only mangle the lyrics of your own song so badly that you end up having to change the title of it?
