Madonna Read My Blog?!

    Okay. Before anyone tries to disagree, I would like to say the following story is hypothetical, realistic fiction. But, either way, I prepared some illustrations to help move this story along.

   So, Madonna* was working on her new album and tour. She got tired and bored. So, she decided to find a blog to read. And, she just happened to come across my blog.

        Unfortunately, she happened to come across The Aspiegoth blog when I had just finished my first Sex-And-The-City Tangent. That was what she ended up reading. And, much to everyone's surprise, she got to thinking.

     Now, Madonna being Madonna, Madonna felt she had to do something. So, she thought about her tour and things she could do to help.

    The decision of where the first concert of her MDNA tour complete & over with, Madonna started to decide on how to help Lady Gaga look innocent in the eyes of  Indonesia's religious right and make her look like an even worse influence on Indonesian youths.

               And, that is why I think Madonna made some of the decisions she's made recently.

    *I mean Madonna the singer.
    **Although, in hindsight, Madonna seems to be the type of gal that uses the term "pussies". I just used the least offensive term I could think of to use as I am not Madonna and I have to use the social filter or else I'll get banned from the internet or something.

                                            The End
 

Sex-and-the-Cityish Tangeant #1

    Hey. I typed last night. But, I am trying to kill that urge for a little while, so, I can finish up a book by summer. All I have to do today is take out the recycling. But, I saw something in the newspaper that made me have to write this now. And, I kind of wanted to do a blog the same way they do the story narration on the old show Sex & The City (I'm not a huge fan of the show, but, I watch it from time to time to forget about The Golden Girls, as 3/4 of the cast of The Golden Girls are dead.). But, I know I can be very blunt at times, so, I am going to warn you right now: I am not really a Lady Gaga fan. Nor am I now or have ever been a fan of the other musicians mentioned in this post. However, that being said, I do sympathize with the devil & tend to go overboard with my worries, so, I am not trying to force anyone to believe that I have an answer to all the world's problems. Much rather, this post was written to bring up an question unrelated to the topic.

    Anyway, I just read about what happened to Lady Gaga. Anyone who didn't here's a link to the story:http://wonderwall.msn.com/movies/search?searchTerm=lady+gaga&+=&qs=AS&sk=&pq=lafdy&sp=1&sc=8-5#!wallState=0__%2Fentertainment%2Flady-gaga-will-have-to-cancel-indonesia-concert-1681920.story

     *I saw it in the newspaper first.
     Well, I was reading about how she canceled her concerts in Indonesia, & I was horrified. And, especially when I  remembered hearing from somewhere that one of her musical influences is Marilyn Manson, a man who many a year ago had churches picketing his concerts because he had the gall to shred/set the Holy Scriptures ablaze. And, he was inspired by Alice Cooper, a man whose shows were picketed by churches the world over because he had the nerve to assault mannequins and decapitate himself on stage.

Now, here's my question: When did music lose that independent "You're not the boss of me" streak it had almost 20-40 years ago? Is music written by vocal people for one confused by things like the moral majority? Or, is music written to please the moral majority?
