I hate my free-spirited festival-attending mum. :-(


My free-spirited mum took me to Glastonbury Music Festival to see a black man rapper guy sing Oasis' "Wonderwall." It wasn't that good. A little bit gimmicky in an 'i am a rapper who luvz attention and has no concept of what an internet meme is so I will continue doing things that I think are historically relevant but no1 rlly cares' kind of way. I like the ________ version of "Wonderwall" waaay better.

N E WAYS.... My mum is one of those krazie festival people who wears zany clothes/wig/tiedye boots/leggings/a kreepie smile, and even has a lucky pair of mud boots. She dressed me up in a custom-made trash bag and bought me some boots at Wal Mart so that I could play in the mud with all of the other 'kids at heart' who attend music festivals.

I would be scared of attending festivals in Europe. They don't have enough classic festival bros. Maybe non-Americans didn't ever really connect with jam bands and deep rock bands like Incubus. They all look like they are in uninteresting British rock bands that MTV tries to tell me are 'the next big thing.' :-(

Do Europeans like David Matthews, or do they only listen to Ricky Martin/Aqua/Shakira/Wyclef/other artists that perform at the beginning of large-scale global sporting events?

David Matthews? Ben Harper?? When are u guys gonna give David Grey and Mike Doughty the credit they deserve? They are the real heroes of their superlative genre.

Dear HRO,You are totally missing the point! For the H.O.V.A., the rapper who had beef with everyone, the rapper who made having beef popular, for him to rip on Wonderwall like that, it's majorly significant. That lameass from Oasis said 'fuck Jay-Z, he's not legit, he doesn't even play guitar.' And Jay-Z said with his performance 'Basically, I'm a superstar, my songs are awesome, and the only song that you've ever wrote that anyone actually cares about actually sucks and isn't even that good.'But he didn't have to say it. He said it with his performance. Thus, the end of beef as we know it.

Oasis? Who are they? Can I find them on Hype Machine? Sounds like the next big thing in 2k8.5. Are they remixed yet?
