Merzbannon - "Satan's Kickin' Yr Dick In" - Tizona Records This time my Album of the Week (#11, but who's counting?) is a face-razing record by Racebannon + Merzbow = Merzbannon (at least that's how I like to present the collaboration), a remix of Satan's Kickin Yr Dick In that takes the original blast point and makes a Hiroshima hole [...]
Well, first I'd like to apologize for not posting a This Week in FAST for the last week of Fringe Fest, things here have been very hectic. But I would like to take a moment to point out two amazing shows to take us out: Tomorrow night (July 24th), local sound legend BLK w/BEAR (Jim Adams) [...]

Hi friends. It's been an eventful 48 hours. My bank account has been frozen by Bank Of America, leaving me with...$12 in cash that has to last me until my new debit card arrives this week. Supposedly there was "suspicious activity" reported by Mastercard, but when I called to ask what happened, I was told that they were not allowed to reveal what the activity was. I called bullshit, and they held their ground. So, really, I don't know why they froze my assets. Maybe someone got ahold of my account information, maybe they didn't. We'll never know. I just [...]

6:00am I think Nicci has food poisoning. I heard her roll out of bed an hour ago, and she mumbled something about a pain in her abdomen. I tried to close my eyes and return to sleep, but a sharp knocking from the other side of the wall behind my head (the bathroom) alerted me that something was wrong. I went to check on her and she said she thought she might be sick. She felt cold and nauseous. Of course, my first reaction was -- sadly -- not to fear for her health, but my own. You see, I'm [...]
Today was the big chili cook-off at the Beverly Hills Farmer's Market. You're going to wait until tomorrow (isn't that the refrain of Silverchair's first single?) to hear all about it. If I had two describe it in two words, I will say, "Tears. Hair." I'm sure you will be waiting on the edge of your seat for my description of the event. Yes, there will be pictures. No, they are not good. RULES for uninitiated noobs : With 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods [...]
Hey, I'm finally getting a paycheck for that job I did all those months ago. Remember the one? I was doing stuff online for this company, but I signed a non-disclosure so I couldn't talk about it? Well, I should have "the bulk of what is owed to [me]" in the coming days. Hello new music gear, goodbye...uh...cheapness? No, no that's not it at all. I'm still cheap. Goodbye...penny-pinching? Is that a synonym for cheapness? Oh, I don't know. I guess all this means is I can stop living on $50 a week for the next few months. [...]
