A Very Webley Wednesday
September 25th, 2008
I know it is Thursday. I was going to write this yesteday. But hey, if the Federal Government can pretend it has $700 Gazillion dollars to lend out, then, you all, should have no trouble pretending it is Wednesday.
I think Jason Webley is one of the most talented musicians/performers I have ever seen. Ever. His music should be in every household across America. Just like Michael Jackson’s Thriller. Jason Webley should be part of our collective unconsious. And his performances should be like church on Sunday. Heck, they are like church on Sunday. He is like a stomping Justin Timberlake, without the Justin or the Timberlake.
So, as part of this website, I am instituting a Webley Wednesday from now on. Every Wednesday I will expand on some aspect of Jason Webley, his music, maybe even his fashion sense. And I will undoubtedly mention, that I think he and Amanda Palmer seriously consider a Twisted Sister cover. And not off the Stay Hungry album either. I think they should go for a different album, an lesser known one. I am going to leave that at that, because Twisted Sister is a very personal issue, and I wouldn’t want to influence them into choosing a song that I would want them to sing, like, cough *I am, I’m me. *cough Or *Wake Up the Sleeping Giant. *cough*
Ok, so back to the Webley Wednesday! Did you know that if a Webley Wednesday happens to fall on the 11th, then the following Friday would be…FRIDAY THE THIRTEENTH? Yeah, I didn’t either until Mr. Pungsnotded pointed it out. How delightfully perfect! And February will be the next Friday the 13th, yay February!
Go now, buy some music so you can meet me back here on next Webley Wednesday and we can discuss each song at length and debate why Jason Webley sings about naps so often? Does he just need a nap? Why can’t he have a nap? Maybe he can’t sleep, maybe he has insomnia. Maybe he can only sleep in Russia. I don’t know. I do KNOW that his newest album is a cd-bargain for only ELEVEN dollars. ELEVEN MEASLEY DOLLARS, PEOPLE! NOT $700 trillion-billion dollars. Just eleven. OR $15 for a record AND a cd. For people like you and I . The rest of us. Go go go buy it! And leave a Webley inspired comment below!

Kinda reminds me of Brighteyes meets Golgo Bordello (ish).

It is not anything meets anything, GOGOL Bordello wishes they were Jason Webley. He was wearing purple before they even got to the United States.
This is the Webley Wednesday.
We will not be discussing anything that is not Jason Webley.
Unless it is Amanda Palmer. OR Twisted Sister.
We have to draw the line somewhere!

Oh, and $11 for a cd might as well be free! Sheesh! Free music is for hippies!

Obviously you people are not mature enough to HANDLE a Webley Wednesday. You are forcing me to close comments on this topic next Wednesday, DO YOU HEAR ME? I cannot believe anyone would even THINK to type the TW word on my website. You people need to think before you type stupid shit! I don’t even know who brighteyes is! I am sure they suck, because that is a stupid name!
