digitaldiscipline ◾ ◾ Spinning Out [playlist]

Going to the gym tonight, with Stereotypical Cycling Instructor B (very gay bald 40-something male named Bruce, as distinct from SCI A (Topographically Enhanced and Incredibly Perky woman named Michelle), or SCI C (Rail-Thin and Inexhaustible girl named Christie)).

Bruce takes hand-in mix CD's, and because I'm sick to fucking death of bad modern covers of Oldies (have you -heard- what No Doubt did to "California Dreamin'" or what travesty has been foisted on "Boys of Summer"? Mein Gott. At least the cover of "Run to You" is less awful, and the song about vibrators that opens with Beethoven's Fifth is amusing).

"So, what -do- you listen to, Rafe?" Jaime, the hospitality manager of the local Doubletree (host location to FetishCon, among other things) asks. She already knows the answer.

"Something with crunchy bits, like angry germans chewing up emo kids."

So I'm bringing fifty one minutes' of "go" tonight.
