  • For all of us, especially Starbucks Green-Aproners

    I've been doing a podcast called Mondo Diablo for just over a year now. I just published a new one today, inspired by the frenzy of shopping about to happen in our stores and lives.

    It's called 'Tis the Season for DOOR-BUSTIN' SAVINGS!!! and it's all commercials and corporate anthems.

    But I thought you barristas would especially get a kick out of the track that plays around 45 minutes. A kick, or a familiar tear, either one. It's "Jefferson Starbucks," which I have included for quick download, for the curious. In case anyone was worried, it's been available all over the internet for a couple of years now.

    Enjoy?

    edit: in case you didn't know, this was a "live performance" by corporate at headquarters in Seattle. The story of the fiasco can be read here.

    But things took a turn for the surreal when the emcee announced "something special for you all--Jefferson Starbucks!" after which the hydraulic stage rotated to reveal a pretend band comprised of the upper-management folk the audience had heard speak earlier in the evening. "They were standing in front of a huge American Bandstand-esque 45 single dangling in the air," writes Cilantro. "And they all had on rock 'n' roll Halloween costumes: pink glitter wigs, white fishnet shirts, fake leather pants, as well as big fake instruments--a huge, oversized piƱata guitar and keyboards.
