It's been one of those weeks that's end couldn't come quick enough. With that in mind, it's good to be reminded that in life, you only go around once - better grab that gusto and be there first. The Spud Boys do just that in song with this cut from Duty Now For The Future. Devo: Red Eye Express - 5MB I don't think Iggy Pop is five foot one, but having met him in passing, I can say he's extremely short. Don't you wish that life can be Swedish magazines? [...]

(from The Flash #145, June 1964; by Fox, Infantino, & Giella) So Basra and Sadr City have become the latest theaters in Iraq's inevitable slide into civil war. This current wave of violence is between factions within the country's Shiite community, demonstrating the continuing fractalization of internal strife in the country. It's the Pandora's Box scenario evisioned by the foreign policy realists prior to the invasion of Iraq and dimissed out of hand by the neoconservative contingent. The present situation is exactly what the "surge" strategy was supposed to [...]
Because... It's Easter. Easter Schmeaster? Well, Schmeaster feaster, you beaster! Gomez - These 3 Sins (from Split The Difference ) "We don't want to harm you," insists Ian Ball.

I'm going back to Hansa Studios in Berlin for tonight's post: Iggy Pop's 1977 classic, Lust for Life . This was Iggy's second solo album, as well as his second David Bowie-produced disk. The Idiot , his solo debut, was so heavily influenced by Bowie as to be nearly unrecognizable as an Iggy Pop album. Hugh Wilken, in the "33 1/3" book about Low , wrote that The Idiot could well be considered the unofficial beginning of Bowie's "Berlin" period. (Bowie and Iggy began writing and recording songs for The Idiot [...]
C'est vendredi soir, le Berghain est fermé, y'a pas trop de monde. Il y a une sorte de frontière invisible les 30 dernières mètres. Les taxi s'arrêtent là, l'air de dire, 'moi je ne peux plus continuer, je tiens à ma vie'. On marche les 30 derniers mètres. L'ancienne centrale hydro-électrique, aujourd'hui mythique pour tout clubber européen, devient réalité. C'est imposant. C'est la fameuse Cadenza night. Mike Huckaby mixe une électro calme. On s'agite pas trop sur le dancefloor. Non, il semblerait que les orgies dans les alcoves danoises aient pris le dessus sur la danse. On me demande de [...]

MP3s for the GRIND. The Week That Was / The Week That Will Be Who doesn't love themed blog posts? By no means is this Work Mix playlist perfect - but here are songs for labor - guaranteed to spark some interesting thoughts. If you think I'm missing any really good ones, drop me an email and let me know. Here's to getting through another week of working for the man. Nothing tragic here - There are worse things... I suppose. [...]
During my bygone undergrad days, I took a course titled "The Sociology of the Vietnam War" where the mix of students was roughly split between Vietnam veterans and twenty-somethings with an interest in the subject. During the first class session, the professor, a compact dynamo of an ex-Marine who had seved a couple tours on the DMZ (and who would occasionally straighten his nonexistent tie in a nonexistent mirror while lecturing), announced a blanket ban on personal anecdotes about the war. His reason for this was, in his words, "because once we start flinging the bullshit around it gets too [...]

For this unique film, director AJ Schnack assembled selections from the Azerrad interviews and merged them with newly filmed, evocative imagery of the three cities in Washington state that played a major role in Cobain's life: Aberdeen, Olympia and Seattle. Shot entirely on 35mm film, Schnack... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

A few days ago, a new garage rock band came to our attention, in the form of the '60 revivalists Foxboro Hot Tubs , that apparently sprung out of nowhere and met with instant success after posting 3 tracks at their myspace . Through concise research, the band turned out to be none other then the punk meisters of Green Day , after they got exposed due to frontman's Billie Joe Armstrong unmistakable vocals and even rhythm signature percussion work from behalf of Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool. On December 8, Foxboro Hot [...]

A must go to event every year is the opening of Art Positions (also known as the "Containers") on Collins and 21st St in Miami Beach. It is an exhibition of young galleries in cargo shipping containers converted to public art spaces. It gets crowded, so in order to appreciate the art arrive early or come back during the day (there are events all weekend). It is also the home base of P.S.1's art internet radio station WPS 1 .

recently, the cover of radiohead 's in rainbows was released. unfortunately, no album artwork ever graced our downloaded zip file but now its nice to have something official . its been quite the experience enjoying this entire album, taking in what is new and combining all the emotions of love, chaos and uncertainty that comes with listening to your favorite band's recent release. only radiohead could get away with placing their music online, having their faithful fans pay as they choose and placing us all into some type of pyschedelic and colorful daze. in support [...]

After over thirty years, a mug shot surfaced of David Bowie following a pot bust in 1976 after a gig in Rochester, NY. Bowie, just 29 at the time, was nabbed along with BFF Iggy Pop and two other codefendants at a Rochester hotel following a concert. The mug shot managed to end up in a Rochester back log, not to be seen until some dude dug it up in hopes of auctioning it off. MP3: David Bowie - "DJ" MP3: Iggy Pop [...]
