1) http://creebobby.com/timestable.html - I like comics. Sigh. This is a “comics times table.”
2) Girl Talk’s “Feed the Animals” album - it’s so good! It’s just fun on wheels. Music wheels. It really is. And people made some pretty great videos for it, too…
3) The National’s album, “Boxer” - same opinion: so good! But not total fun-ness. More smooth and low and dark which is actually so very hard to achieve and make it work. But they sure do it. Amazing. Nice. Here’s the first song, “Fake Empire,” as they play it on the tee-vee…
4) Do you all know the Mr. Bungle album, “California?” It occurred to me recently since we’ve started playing a song I wrote like 10 years ago that kind of sounds a little bit like the song “Vanity Fair” on that album. Sort of. Well, ok, “Vanity Fair” is like its supersonic cousin, but still - it’s a great album. A little intense at points, but if you’re into that - as I am - then hot patootie do I have an album for you… and Mike Patton, my god, is there anything he can’t do?… and hey who knew, a fan-made video for the song “Pink Cigarette” from “California.” Kinda interestin’.
5) Yes! Still! Tomorrow, 3/25 - at the Knockout in SF! Boneless! Boneless! Boneless! Children Foundation. And Off Campus and Vox Jaguars. Brought to you by the lovely folk from the Lower Class Revolt:
And come celebrate - it’s Jonathan Kepke’s birthday! (Our bass player) We’ll, I dunno, chuck donuts at you or something nice.
Thanks, folks. Hope to see you there…
David, in the outness.
