You know, there were always big fights between Jack Bruce and Steal Your Woman Clapton, and not even Steve Winwood could break their bullshit. Everybody was sure Ginger Baker would be dead of a drug overdose any minute, but sometimes I think HE was responsible for ALL of their early successes. I've never loved anything by Clapton since, for instance, and I always liked it better when Jack Bruce sang, until Winwood showed up and I went batshit crazy for everything he did. Baker sort of got left out of it, even as he may have been the very soul of it.

In college at WSU Steven's Point Cream came to play. I was working the sound and light board in the college's production of Max Frisch's play "The Firebugs" and was unable to go. My two assistants however did skip out to go to the show. This left me all alone in the upper reaches of the stage, unable to see what was going on on stage. One assistant was to view the action and signal me when to hit the tape recorder for the sound effects and the other assistant was to control the light board while I was working the sound. There were a number of missed cues and other snafus that night.

The main miscue was the fact that Cream's equipment showed up, but the band ended up in Milwaukee, about 150 miles away.

I forget if they took a taxi or how exactly they were transported, but they seemed to have hit every bar on the way and reports back from the show were that they were so drunk they could hardly perform.

Indeed, when I first heard of Baker Gurvitz army I was surprised as I thought for sure Ginger would have been dead from amphetamine poisoning by that time.

I've never in my life lowered myself to competing in circumlocution with a woman.
—Viktor Yanukovych

Women really are the other half of the sky.
—John Lennon

Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable.
—John F. Kennedy

The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant, it's just that they know so much that isn't so.
—Ronald Reagan

Some of us who have already begun to break the silence of the night have found that the calling to speak is often a vocation of agony, but we must speak. We must speak with all the humility that is appropriate to our limited vision, but we must speak.
—Martin Luther King

We're all fucked. I'm fucked. You're fucked. The whole department is fucked. It's the biggest cock-up ever. We're all completely fucked.
—not uttered by anyone in charge lately

Anyone calling Obama a leftist, liberal, or progressive needs to have the stupid beat out of them.
—Old Uncle Dave

As for the Taliban ... their stated grievance is the same as Gen. Washington’s in our war with the British: If you want this war to end, get out of our country.
—Pat Buchanan

Obama-era drone warfare ... in general looks like Bush-era drone warfare on steroids.
—Scott Horton

There has to be altruism in the universe.
—Frank Drake

The morons in Washington are pushing the envelope of nuclear war. The insane drive for American hegemony threatens life on earth. The American people, by accepting the lies and deceptions of “their” government, are facilitating this outcome.
—Paul Craig Roberts

I am a child of the South. Janet Napolitano tells me I need to be afraid of people who are labeled white supremacists but I was raised around white supremacists. I am not afraid of white supremacists. I am concerned about my own government. The Patriot Act did not come from the white supremacists, it came from the White House and Congress. Citizens United did not come from white supremacists, it came from the Supreme Court.
—Cynthia McKinney

No one has to "marry" anyone else politically; no one has to embrace every tenet or belief that an anti-imperialist ally might hold. You simply have to say: "All of us, regardless of our other views, believe this truth to be self-evident: dismantling the empire will bring immediate and enormous benefits to our nation and to the world."
—Chris Floyd

The power of the people on top depends on the obedience of the people below.
—Howard Zinn

...the government only starts listening to its voters once the more corrupt option turns out to be untenable.
—Matt Taibbi

· One out of seven American homeowners will probably lose their homes by the end of 2010.

· Only 4.7 percent of distressed homeowners who enrolled in the modification plan have gotten any help.

· Out of Obama's $75 billion program, only $2.3 million has been spent—or 0.03 percent.

Obama's performance on the foreclosure crisis—along with unemployment, the biggest problem America faces—makes Bush's laissez faire approach to Hurricane Katrina look caring and loving in comparison. If ever there were a cause for impeachment, look no further.
—Ted Rall

As self-appointed champions of civilisation against barbarism, they fail to see that a certain barbarism is the flipside of civilisation itself, inseparable from its smooth operation. For every cathedral, a pit of bones; for every artistic masterpiece, human wretchedness and back-breaking toil.
—Terry Eagleton

commenting kaos, sidebar krap, quotes

Here at home and throughout the world people are fighting back against the forces of wealth, privilege, and militarism — some because they have no choice, others because they would choose no other course but the one that leads to peace and justice.
—Michael Parenti
