"Waiting for the Streetcar" is incredible.

Also, Party Down, King of the Hill, and a few George Carlin things I can't remember the titles of.

I'm listening now for the first time. When does it stop being boring?

Sonic Youth: Well, our fans like the idea of "daring experimentation," so why not just give them what they want?

Gang Gang Dance handled the material surprisingly well. The fact that there were eighty-eight drummers, however, seemed kind of inconsequential a lot of the time. I wouldn't have wanted lots of clattering the entire time, but still.

I finished Disgrace yesterday. The last eighty pages or so drove it deeply into NOT CRAP territory.

I'm reading Disgrace right now and am not entirely sure how much I enjoy it.

They've seemingly emerged out of thin air, but with something good?

Who would have the audacity to call this band crap?

BUMP

I'm going to the New York one. You know, the one Boredoms themselves won't actually be at. I'm still pretty excited.
