Austin during SXSW, '95 maybe?The house was being heated by the burners on the stove.The woman "cleaned up" by scooping up cat vomit in her bare hand.There was a poet with open sores who insisted that we watch "Mommie Dearest" at 3AM while he recited all the dialogue.Probably not the strangest, but ...

So, I'm trying to reconstruct my band and I need a trombone player and a tenor player - is anyone interested, or do they know anyone who might be interested?Please feel free to forward my info to anyone (myspace in my signature) or PM me some contact info.Thanks!

What's the best-loved Silver Jews record, American Water or something? Man, I cannot understand the love for this record. So dull, this record. Yawn...

BZZZZT!

Sorry, we were looking for some of Husker Du is horrible, some very great.

Meat Is Murder is, to me, a very average collection of songs, competently sung and blandly produced. I don't get it.

The cost of major label CDs from distributors is now just shy of $12.

But maybe you knew that already.

For what it's worth, we did find out it was not stolen (like Kim's).

This is the latest Billy Sides waste of time to see the light of day.

Awful. Incompetent. "Transgressive".

Please fuck off, Billy.

the following was all made by yers truly scratching tapes: shameless self-promotion i may very well be awkward, but i am most certainly having fun. I like your aesthetic very much. If you ever want to collaborate long distance, I'm your man. I rather like cassettes, especially for weird self-releas...

Don't know how many people are into turntablism here, but I am, and I was mightily impressed by this dude re-imagining the possibilities of the lowly cassette. It's a neat idea, because you could very easily make your own "record" to scratch.
