march 28, 2009-mark your calendars

bring your person live to Cafe Campus, or if you can’t do that (natural disaster, you have flesh-eating disease, you’re not in the country) go to the internets, but like a real band, they’re more concerned with the show and direct interaction than the marketing, so just show up, man.

is what it looks like, dope is what it sounds like. if you’ve been to any of the shows in the last two years, you’ll finally be satisfied with a peace of the band that you can put in your pocket, especially if you wear city-approved overalls.

obsolete technology-lest we forget

on the way to the laundromat/subway this morning, walking through the first major snowfall of the season (it’s been going steady now for over 24 hours), i spoke with my mellow about the changing of the times:

me: “i had a dot matrix printer until i graduated high school.”
mellow: “i took my dot matrix printer to university.”
me: “yeah, but what was the internet then?”
mellow: “you could get on line and there were a few bulletin boards and stuff, but people weren’t taking it seriously”
me: “certainly not as credible-those were times when people would laugh at the credibility of the internet”
mellow: “i remember using the card catalogue at the library”
me: “and now people, (and the CBC) quote wikipedia (and facebook)  on the regular as a source”

but the new common album is serious though (even if it’s only 38 minutes long, ADD much?)

me: “it’s the REAL electric circus-stand up”
mellow: “this is some bambaataa shit, it’s funny how people are recycling the same beats after 25 years”

lurking in the lyrical lounge

anywhoo (comme un hibou)

here are my ten cents on solange’s effort:


and EMC, the Extraordinary Man Clique (somehow my title got lost in the e-male exchange-hey, gotta keep up the metaphor, since they were billed as “sir-prises” in my mailbox)


peas.
