Drunk Music Reviews is writer Caitlin Behle and illustrator John Sebastian. We go to shows and get blatantly, shamelessly drunk. We tweet our musings during the shows and sketch what we see and experience. The captions that end with @ drunkmusicrevws are actual tweets that were posted during the show. Tweets ending with J are reviews from John, while tweets ending with C are from Caitlin. The chart at the bottom of every illustration shows the drink tallies for the night. SHAMELESS PLUG ALERT: Drunk Music Reviews has an art opening Final Friday [...]
Today I'll be at the MultiCultural Festival most of the day. We are having a Peace Corps table and taking turns passing out literature and answering any questions. The event opens with a parade of flags at 9:30, and I'll be there with the Ghanaian flag. All day long there will be performers from a variety of countries, an international cafe' and tables selling goods from other countries. I've been hankering for a bit of shopping, and this may be just the time. I have favorite countries and favorite places in other countries. Mind you, all of these [...]

As we continue to tweak WFMU's emerging social music website The Free Music Archive, we've just been informed that Catatonic Youth disbanded this weekend and canceled all future shows, including Saturday's Free Music Archive launch party. With this bummer news comes the awesome news that Sightings has been added to the bill. Over the last decade the Hoffman/Lockie/Morgan trio has become one of thee live bands to see in NYC, taking cues from everything from early Neubauten to Japanese blowout psychedelia to cave-dwelling dub and even minimal house, all contained within a traditional guitar/bass/drums format.

STUART- Movement! Signal's clean. He pans the scanner. Stops. The range display reads out, counting down. STUART- Range twenty meters. STEVEN (to Juan)- Seal the door. Juan picks up a hand-welder and moves to comply. STUART: Seventeen meters. SCOTT: Let's get these things lit. He hands one flamethrower to Steven and begins priming the other himself. It lights with a muffled POP. Steven's lights a moment later. Sparks shower around Juan as he begins welding the door. Stuart's tracker is beeping like mad [...]
Yeah, we've been tough on Billy Corgan and Co. for selling smashed guitars and sleepwalking through pointless contests , but have to hand it to them for the array of official free Pumpkins bootlegs -- starting from '88! -- that popped up at the official site. It's a great Pumpkin treasure trove. Just click here . Don't worry, we figured there had to be a catch, but so far all we've found are great recordings from back in the day (and later). Wanna hear "Silverfuck" from Paris '92? Not a problem. [...]
