Posted on by

I tried leaning heavily on my love of daffodils to game this quiz, but I think it could tell I was lying. And just because I’m too old to die young doesn’t mean I’m not Keats, dammit! Fuck- I mean FAUGH!

You scored as Percy Shelley. You’re poet is Percy Shelley. Shelley’s best-known works include his Prometheus Unbound (1819), a lyrical drama in which Shelley expounds the cause of an imaginative revolution, his atheistic poem Queen Mab (1821), his prose essay A Defence of Poetry (1840) and The Triumph of Life, left unfinished at Shelley’s death. Many of Shelley’s other works were written around 1820: these include The Mask of Anarchy (1820), the poem ‘Ode to the West Wind’ (1819), Peter Bell the Third (1819) and the political odes ‘To Liberty’ and ‘To Naples’ (both 1820).

PSA: 12 Midnite’s Money-Grubbing Cash & Carry Art Sale

12 MIDNITE: Political Pop art pioneer, lowbrow legend and hot rod hooligan hosts sale of vintage art thought long lost

Feb. 5, 2007
Vancouver:
12 MIDNITE, Canada’s best known unknown arist has a checkered history of shifting gears on his career. Coming to the forefront of the thriving political street art movement, by the mid 80s his name became synonomous with gritty urban pop art. Since that time he has been an established member of the elite society of Lowbrow legends, moving through graffiti to pop painting and neon art, running galleries, a hot rod shop and back, while popping up irregularly with guitar in hand, to front an ever-shifting band of punk ex-patriots to shock and amaze fans and foes with his beer-drenched tales of misadventure before disappearing in a blur of flat black and throaty exhaust.
On one magical night only, February 17th, Midnite will host a MONEY-GRUBBING sale of long-lost art: paintings, prints, drawings, graffiti and neon from the early days to fund his latest album, “SWEET TURNS SOUR”  at LUCKY RED, on the bitter end of Vancouver’s historic chinatown.
Those who cough up over 200 dollars will recieve an advance copy of the album along with the smug satisfaction of knowing that BUYING ART MAKES YOU COOL!

Steve and Eydie, bay-bee!

On the one hand, this is insane. On the other, it is lovely.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is the classic Vegas lounge duo Steve and Eydie performing Soundgarden‘s nihilistic, heroin-laced grunge classic, Black Hole Sun.

Never mind, Odeo killed the file, thanks Odeo. Click onward to go to an updated post with the lyrics and a video.
