Monday Night Mix Tapes would like to recommend:
1) Beards: We are not talking about neck beards, chin straps, or mutton chops. And not mustaches. Mustaches are always ironic when you are under 35. Even if you don't know it. Unless you are a grit.
I once made eye contact with a guy in his 20's with a SERIOUS mustache. He came into the bar looking like Matthew McConaughey and asking for a paper towel and a ginger ale, because his girlfriend was puking in the car-- he was smiling the whole time. Making eye contact with him was was like staring into Abraham Lincoln's soul -- and you know what Abe Lincoln had? -- a beard.
Beards are nature's mask, grow one and stop being such a little pussy.
2) Audio books on a long car ride: Especially recommended if you are traveling to see music. I mean really how greedy are your ears? Listen Ears, let the brain have a little room once in a while. You get concerts, conversation, sweet nothings. . .
We have been shitting on the brain since before high school. I am sure you can find an audio book read by Morgan Freeman. The Ears love Morgan Freeman.
3) Going for it!: I mean what are you afraid of? What that you will fail? You fail all the time. You do. If you weren't always so stoned you would notice. I say buck up and do it. I mean what is the worst that could happen? Oh, you could die? I mean, aren't you a little dead on the inside already? I thought so.

Mix #12 - Your City
Creator: Jesse Chula
Occupation: Inside Advertising Sales
Theme: Your City
Title: That Manchester Sound
I don't know much about Manchester. I don't know much about these bands. I couldn't have made this mix.
Good thing Jesse did. I like the concept. Music as place. While people don't always think about it in those terms, some music just sounds distinctly related to a region. You'll hear people say a track sounds "Detroit" or a rap album is very "Atlanta." It is just typical for a city to develop a nationally recognizable sound.
I know this I live in Nashville.
This is from Jesse the creator:
Sooner or later the World’s first Industrialized city would get it right. Most of us love the Cities we live in for one reason or another. Why shouldn’t we? It’s home right? Well certain cities are known for different things, and besides their famous sports teams, Manchester, England has always been known for its music. The “Madchester” scene was born in the 80’s with bands like The Smiths, and The Stone Roses. The following short mix tape highlights bands from Manchester and surrounding areas. Although each song doesn’t mention Manchester by name, each song was carefully selected due to certain references of a city, place, area, or other facet of the Manchester, or English culture.
Enjoy.
Jesse,
Since I am the one putting it online, I have already heard the mix. I dug it. Thanks for sending it in! Just a warning, someone might try to bust your ass for excluding Joy Division... you know how their fans get!
Thanks,

Recommends #1
Since there is about six days between posts of mix tapes (and that might change), I thought I would add a few additional entries to fill the gaps.
Pretty simple idea: Monday Night Mix Tapes (or its readers) recommends something for you to check out (and posts a link to find it.) Maybe.
1) Ben Sollee: I got a chance to catch a set of Ben's in Nashville. To simply say he is a cellist is not exactly fair. He is the kind of cellist that probably likes Dr. Dre's "The Chronic" (and to a lesser degree "Chronic 2001".) It was enjoyable and interesting and something I wouldn't miss. Visit his page and tell him I sent you. http://www.myspace.com/bensollee
2) Flavor Blasted Goldfish Snacks: Considerably more full of flavor than the original Goldfish snack (which means that there is actually flavor). It is goldfish snacks grown up. It will remind you of the moment you stopped holding hands and started dry-humping in the basement after your parents went to bed. Plus, the fish now wearing sunglasses. Which makes him cool like James Dean or blind people. And that little fucker is smiling - even though you are going to eat him.
http://www.pepperidgefarm.com/ProductDetail.aspx?catID=776
3) Morning Bike Rides: Look, I know it sucks getting up early, and you are still hung over or a little drunk, but there is no other way to start your day. You liked bird-doggin' ladies at the bar last night, just do it in the park. It's about the same, only these ladies have jobs.

Mix #11 - School/ Work
Creator: Casey Chalmers
Occupation: Videographer
Theme: School and Work
Title: School/Work(Double Disc)
I always am exited to get a mix from Casey, because it, without fail, introduces me to a ton of new music. It also makes me curious how I didn't already know a group named "Cock Sparrer"? It seems like I should be on their mailing list.
These are both fun mixes, and it surprised me how often many of the Wu-Tang Clan affiliates sung (growled) about school. I suppose it is a topic almost all us have in common with the Wu-Tang Clan -- at least that and the fact that Clark's are really comfortable, and we should all diversify our stocks and bonds. They're no one to fuck with.
I was surprised that the Jackson 5's, "ABC" didn't make the list, and I was very happy to see that Bachman-Turner Overdrive's "Takin' Care of Business" was absent.
BTO - First there is no "Overdrive" about any of their music. Just the term "overdrive" seems like you should be the opposite of everything they are about. I can't condone the misappropriation of that term.
Second, every corporate event I have ever been a part of (and there have been too many) use this song as some kind of rocking anthem, and if it doesn't start the day out, it WILL close the convention down as part of some slide show event that magically makes it seem like everyone wants to be sitting there for a week of eating buffet lunches, binge drinking the nights away in the bar to stay sane, and late night groping of co-workers.
In Canada, they eat that shit up!
Thumbs up for the Uncle Tupelo, Willie Hightower, and The Degrassi High Theme Song.
My only other comment is: It takes some balls to put a 7 minute Pet Shop Boys Song on any mixed tape.

Mix #10 - Girls on Boys
Creator: Nelle Blevins
Occupation: Architect
Theme: Covers
Title: Girls on Boys (Double Disc)
This is a great concept for a mix. All songs originally performed by men covered by woman. Cover songs are interesting - especially when the transcend the original version (in quality or popularity), and take on a new meaning. Like mixtapes, covers change meaning based on how it is used, and who uses it. Which ones hold up? Who can really own it? I once saw a friend do "Every Rose has Its Thorn" in a strip-mall bar filled with rednecks, I promise to you it was just as powerful as the original and I was standing on a table by the end. That is one of my personal top 10 covers.
Also, I had read once, and have no idea if this is true, that (the Prince of Darkness) Trent Reznor and (Duke of Douche Bags) Zack De La Rocha were recording Zach's new record at Trent's haunted mansion/recording studio when Johnny Cash's version of Hurt (+ video) were delivered. Trent was unhappy Cash decided to cover it. They put the tape in and watched. By the end of the video both men were crying, and Trent said to Zach, "That is now a Johnny Cash song." Wouldn't that have been a sight to see? The Goth and the Activist weeping to Country. Some things just pull the heart strings.
I know the theme was Girls On Boys -- Girls covering Boys songs, which means technically speaking, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy shouldn't be included in with the girls. I can understand how you would think that, but I have a couple of things I would like you to consider in defense of this mix. First, the last time I saw Will Oldham (in the wild), he was wearing a pink head-band, very very short jean cut-offs, a pink shirt and snow boots and eating an vanilla ice cream cone. Second, relatively speaking this makes R. Kelly look like Ernest Hemingway.
Track Listing:
Girls
1) Satisfaction - Bjork
2) Love Will Tear Us Apart - Nouvelle Vague
3) Starman - Mates of State
4) $20 - M.I.A
5) This Charming Man - Stars
6) Highway 61 Revisited - Karen O and the Million Dollar Bashers
7) Two-Headed Boy - The Dresdon Dolls
8) Christmas Card From a Hooker in Minneapolis - Neck Case
9) Pennyroyal Tea - Kristen Hersh
10) Yesterday is Here - Cat Power and Steve Shelly
11) Stuck Inside of Mobile with Memphis Blues Again - Cat Power
12) Between the Bars - Metric
13) Trouble - Kristen Hersh
14) I'm Not in Love - Tori Amos
15) War Pigs - The Dresdon Dolls
16) Ignition - Bonnie 'Prince' Billy
One of my favorite "Girls on Boys" is Neko Case covering The Everly Brothers, "Bowling Green" off of her first album, The Virginian. It is a song about country folk going to city to get wasted and bird-dog chicks. Find it, you will enjoy it!
The play-list that follows was included with the first mix. It is all the originals. Compare and contrast. . .
Boys
1) Satisfaction - Rolling Stones
2) Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division
3) Starman - David Bowie
4) Where is my Mind - The Pixies

Mix #9 - Gambling
Creator: Kyle Burns
Occupation: Insurance
Theme: Gambling
Title: Gambling
Track Listing:
1) Viva Las Vegas - Dead Kennedys
2) Ohh, Las Vegas - Gram Parsons
3) Gambling Man - Woody Guthrie
4) The Ace of Spades - Motorhead
5) Dying Gambler - Blind Willie McTell
6) Go Down Gambling - Blood, Sweat & Tears
7) Luck be a lady tonight - Frank Sinatra
8) Polka Dot Gambler - Jimmie Rodgers
9) Rambling Gambling Willie - Bob Dylan
10) Poker - ELO
11) Sin City - EmmyLou Harris
12) Where the Devil Don't Stay - Drive By Truckers
13) The Gambler - Kenny Rodgers
This is a great mix! Starting off with the Dead Kennedys was the right thing to do. I figured you someone would be bound to start or end with The Gambler. I have some memory of this song from early childhood. Maybe an uncle sang this to me, maybe it was on when something traumatizing was happening, so it stuck. The other highlights, for me, were the Gram Parsons song, Ohh Las Vegas. I like Parsons stuff, especially the Flying Burrito Bros. records, but this had someone escaped me. Also, The Drive-By Truckers. I thought they were bullshit. I was wrong.
Roll them dice!
