Having been born and raised in Chicago, I'm going by what they taught us in my grade-school History of Chicago class at Falconer School.
Isn't Seattle the "Junkie City"?
BAND: COCOROSIE
42If it says so in the schoolbooks here, it must be true.
"Pro Tools is too California Hollywood bullshit.”

43Although I hate calling anyone crap I don't do enough drugs anymore to not call this crap. I mean c'mon. They actually made me cringe at the TnG show. And not in a good way. Ugh. Yech. Blah.
BAND: COCOROSIE
44I am going to say it right here and right now. Cocorosie is the greatest musical act in the history of all musical acts. No other musician or composer in history has made or written anything that can anywhere near compare with the wondrous beautiful sounds created by these two beautiful ladies and their (one of them black) friends.
In thousands of years people will look back upon our time here on Earth and the only thing they will see as noteworthy will be the existence of Cocorosie.
I just wrote a letter to a certain politician, maybe you have heard of him...the PRESIDENT...I wrote and demanded Cocorosie immediately be placed on the endangered list making any sort of befouling of them or their names a felony.
I also asked him to consider printing new money with pictures of Coco and Rosie on the various bills and also to see to it that images of them be placed upon Mt. Rushmore as soon as is possible.
I shall consider this matter closed, no other opinions are needed in this matter as I have pretty clearly made my proclamation that they are indeed NOT CRAP.

45I don't feel like I completly understand this band at all but at the same time am completly un willing to spend any time listening to them. From a distance they sounded fucking horrible and as far as their live show how is showing pornesque videos of ones self in the back ground cool? Fucking David Yow used to get naked and such on stage not just show goddamm videos. Also they opened up for Bright eyes a while back so fuck them for doing that.

47Marsupialized,
I must say, you are one of the most confounding web personalities I have ever come across (not that I have really come across many beyond this board).
Cheers, next time drinks are on me.
My head hurts.

(P.S, I don't care about Coco Rosie at all, my vote is MEH)

48I wonder what Cocorosie is doing right now. Something wonderful no doubt. I wish everyone liked them as much as I do.

Bianca rapped while Sierra Casady sang through some effect that made it sound as if she was weeping. ... And finally, the first black musician of the weekend (at least the first I saw) stepped on stage and proceeded to beatbox expertly before doing a kick-ass, high-speed rap in French, and then fondling Bianca during a slow jam...
There is no part of this description that doesn't make me seethe with hatred for someone. The Cocorosies, their audience, the expert beatboxer or the poor blogger. There's something to hate in every phrase!
Okay, I don't hate the birds.

I should say that I loved everything prior to this. I like Cocorosie a lot, but I was not into this, and decided to go home and start grilling, lest my near perfect memory of what came before that be spoiled.
