Dessert Island Music

If you were on a desert island...

No, stop right there. I'm not going to waste my precious brain cells (however many that are left after years of using the street drug "Ewok Paste") on thinking about deserted desert islands. With ONE stupid palm tree. I don't like palm trees to begin with (too scaley) let alone just one lonely palm tree to keep me company on said desert island.

But if you add another "S" to the mix...well, you get Dessert Island. And that's an island I can be down with. Peach beaches, chocolate volcanoes, cherry rivers, tiramisu monkeys...oh man, it would be incredible!

So, back to my original hypothetical question:

If you were on a DESSERT island and you could only take one CD with you, which would it be?

First of all, you've got to consider the venue. It's an island...made of desserts. Do you think this is the place to bring your copy of New Order's Movement? Hell no, friend. You need to bring out the sugary teeth-rotting music that Mom always hid on you when you were a kid.

The CD I'm thinking of is from the supergroup Masters of the Bowl, called Free Toy Inside. Now, first of all, do you KNOW who was in the Masters of the Bowl? Only the most rocking of cereal mascots. On drums there was Snap, Crackle AND Pop. Yeah, three drummers. Now, mind you, one of them played the bongos, but I don't remember which one of them it was. Next, on bass, was Toucan Sam. The Trix Rabbit was on keyboards. And on vocals? Tony the Tiger.

The thing you have to realize, though, is that the combination of being on Dessert Island while playing the Masters of the Bowl CD is probably going to shorten your lifespan by about 10 years. Its just that flavor intensive, you know? Make the most of it, I guess.
