The Who - Substitute http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eswQl-hcvU0
Substitute - the lies for facts Substitute - your homes for shacks
Substitute - fi'at for gold Substitute - the new pays old
Substitute - big bro for laws Substitute - your fear for balls
Substitute - your bombs for peace For you will toil, there is no ease.
The Who also did other prophetic tunes...one especially comes to mind....with lyrics..."we won't get fooled again"...and "meet the new boss the same as the old boss".
So was it wicked Uncle Bernie, Uncle Bennie or Uncle Barney that was fiddling about with the deaf, dumb and blind US citizen?
Great....being a big Who fan, luv'd yeour lyrics....I also kept thinking of B-52 Ben and Pinball Wizard....maybe its the deaf, dumb, and blind part????
Love your stuff WB7. I always check it out. One suggestion as someone who also works with images. In the top image, the face is very sharp while the rest of the photo is soft-focus. De- focus Alan's face and that would look very natural, IMHO. Thanks for your work!
This is hilarious...Watch the video 'Chairman Ben Bernanke - National Recovery Hero!' at (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr86PkjTrPQ).
Over the top, down the back wall, escape under the river, and Live To Tell, W-O-W !
Well guys,i would like to surpirce you with thing which was happend back in the USSR,in 1989 the Soviet power(i really do not care who was at power then,i was just out from army like 2years,so i joined given back to me 2000rubbles used by my mom in time of my army service) and i was driving a car making taxi unlegal money,because to by one wheele rubber was about to work as taxi driver for about half month,prices was growing on the day basic and things disappear from shelfs,so.......one day it was declair reform of money,it was given one week to exchange appropriate amount of money,if i do not mistaken is like 30000rubbles.I remember how one waiter woman told me about evening she spend in restaurant due some azerbajdgan nation group partiing there was making salut with old money,she said to me that she was just collecting all this crap while everyone knew tomorrow this will be just paper.......hmmmmm,she was geniuse.....next day it was announced about prolongation of the exchange process and some groups floor of limit was made much up,as you guess the waiter good her piece of "cheeeeeeeeeeeeese"
Why do i say it to you friends and freethinkers?Because before dollar really will be ingraved I expecting something same party,where the dollar will rise in pre-last move down or whatever,just expect oil collapse soon and all other currencies too,yes,everyone is tied to hear this,but......i believe all of you will be surpriced,say together :"Cheeeeeeeeeeessssssssse!" :)
Da, good story is vetter wit accent.
cheeeeeeeeesssssssse!
Interesting story. While reading this it works better if you mentally use a Russian accent. It helped me to understand what was being said. :>)
Iz good, no?
Tovarich, you are better than cheeeeese, you are pure vdka on the rocks. I will try and understand you after I've finished the bottle. Saluto! skol! Bolshoi bravta!
who's the other GIRLIE guy with Benocide in visual combat? Is it Q?
Yes
WB7... you have found the solution to the libyan problem!!! Just send Q Benocide wrapped in kool-aid and see him run all the way to Caracas! Caramba!! Who would want the plague of QE holding hands with him. Pronto! Ben to take the trail to Tripoli. Double whammy! No QE- forever and Q and he will live happily forever after in Caracas with Hugo, the three stooges of goo-goo Venezuelan Orenoque. A presidential order from O of Potomac and congress has no choice but to sing : "From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli, we love Ben on permanent duty".
banzai, good lyrics to embellish a greatest. hey, did i tell you i saw the WHO @ woodstock. we were sitting up front. i thought they played in the day. it really was a bit of a muddy mess. left early, didn't get to see jimmy, but got out with my life.
my generation. fuck these bastards don't deserve to be lumped in with this music evolution generation. these crooks for sure weren't digging the music scene. if they had been we wouldn't be in this mess today. these fck tards are ass ugly, deformed devils in disguise. look at their eyes, all satan no love. i guess this is the ying and yang of the 60's. they are just the true evil doers. we need to behead these bastards.
i don't know how much damage your visual combat is doing. seems kinda soothing to the eye to see these babes† is that your point. end the ugly men pics, with the soothing body babes of wonderland!
I don't like to over intellectualize about what I am doing, but there is a considerable amount of thought behind it. I am constantly looking at different methods employed by other artists.
On one level I try to scramble and provoke emotions. By doing so I hope that the viewer will drop preconceived notions and consider what is being said. Humor has always been an ideal medium for doing this.
But on the most basic level, I am simply goofing and ranking on people I and other like minded people detest (in the true spirit of George Carlin and others). Humor is an elixir that saves morale.
OMFG you are hysterical.
Do you post your actual trades anywhere?
I consider the Who to be vastly overrated, and was all ready to pan this one. But strangely(?), the fine hand of Banzai7 was able to make the trite into something worthy.
Kudos (yet) again, WB7.
I know this will surprise you, but Townsend is actually a thinking man's musician. He is very good friends with Pat Martino. Although I understand the relationship has had its rough moments. What he does commercially is not the complete picture.
Not sure if this has been done yet, but there should be some good materal from a "Gangsta's Paradise" slash "Banksta's Paradise" meld.
I thought to tell you this after I saw an amateur British chap's production of "Bankster's Paradise":

'Ponzi Boomer Generation' - Neo classic
Hey WB7, did I see you just now at the Steve Vai, Guinness world record guitar lesson online at Berkleemusic.com
It was good stuff.
You know what I respect most about Vai? He shares. He made a shit load as a rocker and now he is taking the money and supporting a very diverse group of very fine musicians. Kudos to him!
Vai, Good to know. He is silk on the axe and I will give some money for the lesson next time he plays within a days drive.
Thanks for the levity in light of the ongoing orderly $US demise.
"And d-dig the quantitative shit we shovel your way"
Fab ;))
.....shovel the shit into bankrupt Big Banks and bankrupt Big Govt... 'Change you can Believe In'
Plenty of shit to go around ;-)
Would love to hear this song with "kyle's mom" replaced by "uncle ben".

Burned my thumb holding up my Bic.
Aha, a child of the 60's/70's I suspect. Nowadays you hold up your iPhone. :>)
If there is not an APP that does this, there will be by evening.
ROFL
excellent graphics, as usual
Tnx Whitebread ;-)
That is excellent! Another song to add to the repertoire of Benny and the Ink Jets on the Infinite QE Tour.
I have the whole album ;-)
Great, as usual.
Tnx Hugolp ;-)
Madoff should be between ponzi and Keynes, move Bernank to the front since he's in charge of the most prominent ponzi
You are shortly going to be launching a new career with the exposure ZH is giving you.
Good for you.
WB7 is experimenting with creating a Ponzi for artists. Instead of fiat currency each artist creates fiat art. I'm handling the IPO and ZH is providing the sucker.......er......investor pool. :>)
The Visual Combat series is worth 1,000 fiats each. Still working out the exchange rate, but no matter what you're gonna loose. But WB7 wants you to be happy while loosing. I think that's honorable, don't you? :>)
This is what has been going on with the art scene in Manhattan for the last ten years. The Ponzi Art machine.
BTFD
Watch the dollar f-fade away!
"The Dollar is here to stay" Tim Geithner, March 3rd 2011
This will be a timeless classic.
this is what's wrong about fiat economics, it degenerates into ponzinomics.
http://covert2.wordpress.com
Is fiatonomics ever anything except ponzinomics?
Bernanke in "The Running Man", priceless.
The psychedelic Bernank/Greedspan also very good.....
Isn't it that: "It is better to burn-out than fade away"?
