almost May

update:

there may be coloured vinyl in Ryan's solo album future....yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!

victoria scooter rally is almost upon us. yessssssssssssssss!

I was guest-listed for Block Party and Hot Hot Heat last night. I really enjoyed the show! I dont go out much, so it was fun. I drank a pear cider. It has probably been 10 years since I have had a pear cider. I kinda want to go to band of horses in sept....I listened to XTC, hoodo gurus and Squeeze all day today--satisfying.

I wrote very journalistically over the weekend for a punk band's factor grant and for mono. maybe I missed my calling.

Question:

good USA indie labels? name some.
ex: sub pop / jagjaguar.....

out.

NICE

new post

I guess I need to do something exciting and take some photos of it as I am lacking a visual blog inspiration.

I went to bang on a Can, it was awesome. way better than I expected. A truly new movement in music. I would go into detail but I expect it would bore most.

How about the weather, here in sunny vancouver. This winter has been exceptionally un-rainy. ya, so it snowed--but it gave us a white Christmas.

We have an album cover for the Ryan album. I officially like it.

bang on a can

bang on a can is going to play the chan centre this sunday for the push festival. I think it will be good. works by thurston moore and brian eno and ligetti's son.
