I just ordered the minialbum by Thalia's "lost" band Via, slotted between Uzi and Live Skull chronologically.

Features former members of Nuclear Theater (not that hardly anyone here would know; I barely do) and future ones of Six Finger Satellite and Cell (that's more like it). Uzi's tape ...

Appreciate you taking the time and keeping this place breathing. Thanks, man.

I abhor this airport, possibly in an illogical way at this point.

I am usually hung over as fuck when leaving it and heading home.

It was under renovation for a while and that sucked.

It has a weird way of handling customs and security…with security happening immediately before ...

Leather Hearse's Burn in Heaven. Under-the-radar thing from late last year.

Tannon from Loincloth, the singer (once known as Andrew, now known as Lloyd) from a '90s weirdo Richmond band called Sliang Laos, and a couple metal dudes w/whom I am unfamiliar (drummer from Triptykon, Necrophagist, and ...

Americans seem to really care about politicians sexual indiscretions. In the UK not a career ender at all. France, I’m not sure they trust politicians that haven’t had affairs.


I get what you're saying. Normalizing it just doesn't seem right with me, though.

Anyway, I shouldn't have ...

Seems like the type of band that co-workers will try to talk to me about because I like weird music. See also : King Gizzard.


Holy shit. That actually happened to me once. A well-intentioned young office manager seemed to think I'd be down w/the Gizz. Boy, was he wrong.

Taoyuan International, in Taiwan, had a human-sized display of Pili warriors, these massive, elaborate glove puppets that look like a cross between mythological heroes from Chinese folktales and pretty-boy new-wave bands from the early '80s. They beat the shit out of one another, w/much fake blood ...

John Wayne airport story... I waited in the white zone.... My buddy came back out, refused to provide his ID to the cops (he was black), and we ended up getting taken to airport jail and my car impounded.

The "white zone" wasn't white enough that day, I guess. Christ...


I like the Sub Pop ...

Really hard to say. It's such a balancing act.

I tend to like tiny, quaint, get-in-get-out airports the most.

Like the ones in the Azores (except for overcrowded-but-still-small Ponta Delgada/João Paulo II). That said, it's not like there's much to eat or a ton of comfort. When I wanted an ...

I too would vote for Serrano over these.

Habaneros add a terrific 'tropical' flavor but you basically have to rethink your meal due to the heat. There's little point in trying to pair a good wine with it . Jalapenos are fine but I don't get excited about them.


Indeed. Off-dry Lambrusco or ...
