My New Ringsongs and Death Rock....

Fun show last night, except for the being really sick part. Other than that, it rocked.

Off shortly with Danguy for the show again tonight, which, I am hoping, rocks yet again. I am less sick, stopped at work on the way home last night and got strange and wonderful Chinese Things For Colds, which made a lot of difference.

Right now, I think thinking nap, but by the time we get there, I will be ready, and will no doubt forget this illness and all the illness of this world for that matter. Oh, my yes. There will be rock. I really, really hope you are coming down. Yes, you.

Danguy made my new Blackberry talk to my Itunes today, and so now everyone, or at any rate, the people who call me most, in my phonebook, all have their very own ringsongs, which is the BEST....

For a fun family oriented Saturday night activity, if you are not amongst those going out to rock, try and guess the songs....

Bandmate Paul...White Stripes

Birdchick.......Men at Work

Maddy...........Lady Gaga

Kitty...........Duran Duran

Danguy..........AFP

Adam/Best Stemple...Tim Malloys

Merrryhousekeeper....ABBA

Woodsman Hans....Johnny Cash

AFP..........Replacements

Boss.........KT Tunstall

Beth (AFP Asst).....AFP

Big Sexy.........Tom Tom Club

Dr Wicked.........Creatures

Everyone Else...............PINK!!!!!

Love, Rock and Ringsongs,
Lorraine

  1. Hmmm, well if I called you regularly I'd have a particular Peter Allen song as my ringtone.

    This is a quizz that could take all day to figure out.

    Have a fabulous gig.

  3. And if I ever get my own ringtone, it'd probably be Tori (hint hint) ;-)

    We're off to see Devo tonight...we're taking Ben. Worst but coolest parents evah! Show starts at 9pm, his bedtime is usually 8. We have seats, he can lie down on us if need be. He's been singing "Girl U Want" all day!

  4. Oh....YOU ROCK GIRL...Cold be damned, ROCK will happen!!!
    Wish I could be there!

  5. Yes, yes, meeeeee ...

    I don't think I would get very far in that game. You know, I keep trying to get Ben and Jack to come up with my Theme Song. I picked theirs. Ben is "American Idiot" because he's a political junkie (his words, not mine) and loves third parties and the like. And Jack was "I Get By With a Little Help From My Friends." Perhaps I could be "I Get By With a Little Help From My Fiends." Maybe you guys can choose my Theme Song.

  7. Emily surely your song would be the star trek theme song. at least on my phone it would be :)

    boss otherside of the world
    i'm stumped on the rest.

  8. I'm not even going to try, as I'd have a hard time just pairing song with their performers, much less anyone else.

    I only know of one person assigning a song to me on their phone. It's The Llama Song. I fell out of my chair laughing when she had me call her from the same room.

    Alas, I can only be there in spirit. I'm sure the rock will be amazing. Have a wonderful night.

  11. I would fail spectacularly trying to guess the right songs, so I'm not even going to try.

    Hope tonight rocks out!!

  12. shenanigans! who cares if you guess right, guessing wrong is fun too.

  14. Hello spam. Think we were getting along well without you.

    Love that Lear's name is really Luka. You only think you said it by accident. I'm sure he's been working for weeks to get you to say it so he could let you know it was His Name.

    My Beau has always been some sort of Bo. Just never knew how it was spelled until Dulce came into his name (now they are my sweet (dulce) and handsome (beau) boys).

    Maybe Mab has a different name, too?

    ReplyDelete
  15. But, but, Vampi, I don't know most of these names (hangs head in shame).

    Okay, two I do know, so MerryHousekeeper - ABBA - Dancing Queen. WoodsmanHans - Johnny Cash - Ring of Fire.

    Um, the only Lady Gaga song I know the title of is Poker Face, and that only because of the CW reading. The only AFP song I know the title of is Ampersand, 'cause how can you forget that as a title?

    ReplyDelete
  16. I am disqualified from playing, and will just sit here cackling wildly at the guesses.

  17. i'm totally going for comedy answers

    oss and others stumped, i'm bad with song titles, so i looked up the songs i was thinking of on lala.com

  18. Couldn't you give us an incy wincy hint Dan?

  19. Not a game I'm any good at.

    Just got done test-cooking medieval European recipes - I'm feeding up to a hundred people for a whole weekend in a couple weeks. Everything was yummy.

    After the shopping for the test batches, and the price-checking on all the major ingredients, and then the cooking and of course eating, I'm tired, Plus, the instant I sat down, finally, the cat sat on me, so I may be here for the rest of the evening.

    Of course, if I were close enough for the gig, I'd so be there tired or no.

  20. In a very serious mood. Hoping my blog will be read. It is stark and base and dark. But there were things needing to be said. That said.

    Please be better Lorraine.

  21. What kinds of things did you make, Phiala?

    ReplyDelete
  22. Hey Vampi, a good idea for my Theme Song!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Baked sweet rice with cheese.
    Peas cooked in milk and ginger.
    Four different batches of a bean dish, trying to choose the best kind of beans. (Pinto.)
    Gyngerbrede, which has nothing in common with the modern gingerbread, being made entirely of honey, spices and breadcrumbs.

    There are also beef, chicken, spinach, and root vegetable dishes, but we didn't try those tonight.

    ReplyDelete
  24. i so want to eat at Phiala's house. so many fiends are so good at cooking.

    i did nada today. went out for brekkers and then crashed. trying not to get sick i think.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Sounds like pretty good food. Don't envy you cooking for so many people though. Best of luck to you!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Your hint is: one of you is right about one guess.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I think I've found my theme song. Even fiends who aren't yarn junkies will appreciate it, I think. I can't get a direct link to it on my phone, so you'll have to search YouTube for "Malabrigo". It should be the first hit.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Perfect, OSS. :)

    ReplyDelete
  29. The songwriter (my husband) guesses "Androgynous" for AFP ...

    ReplyDelete
  30. Hmmm. Somehow I think Kitty's ringtone is Girls on Film, but being a Durannie in dayes of auld I might be biased.

    Don't remember who said "Who Can It Be Now?" for Birdchick but I second the vote for that one.

    DanGuy - "Blake Says?" (Just a guess)

    MerryHousekeeper - "Merry Go Round"

    Maddy - "Pokerface"

    The others are too hard to guess.:)

    If I had to pick one for myself it would be either "Pagan Poetry" (Bjork) or "Chicky" (Oojami).

    Hope there's plenty of ROCK:)

  31. What a great night! Other than how lit I am and that I am (surely) behaving like an idiot, I had a lovely night out. M got some treasure. I got to have a night out with Katy. We got to listen to P & L rock. What could be better?

    ReplyDelete
  32. Rock. Happened.

    Sleep Happening.

    Now.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Very fun guesses. One of you IS right about one of them.

    ReplyDelete
  34. I am so glad you like Men At Work, they were awesome, and Colin Hayes still is!

    ReplyDelete
  35. so glad it rocked!

    ReplyDelete
  36. YES for rock. Mom was out last night and William slept over with his dad so we had our own sort of rock.

    And OSS - perfect.

    ReplyDelete
  37. No way to guess those, I am ignorant of most of them...

    Sunny and bright Sunday morning...

    Is rock going to happen next weekend, too?

  39. Morning all!

    Interesting night. Slept down in the Romance Room until 6. They are UP at six. And Magic SINGS. Not his general YOWL, but a proper early morning aria. It's really beautiful, actually. Would love to record it.

    Went back up with the blessedly silent Royals.

    Now to work.

  40. Yeah, I suck at figuring out which songs would go with different people so I'm going to just here and watch everyone else guess. :)

  41. WHat? No Barry Manilow for Birdchick?

    ReplyDelete
  42. In order for it to be a Ringsong, it needs to be in my Itunes, which sadly, cancels all Barry Manilow options...

  49. Woodsman Hans is Ring f Fire, but that was kind of a no brainer..SO far that's the only correct answer...

    Doing a new blog now, when it is UP, that's the end of the Ringsongs Game...
