Seriously, I am sick of the heat. This has been a brutal summer, but everyone that was at the Mohawk Friday night braved the radiant warmth and put their energy into the show. Handsome Furs ’ performance was contagious. Dan and Alexei were giving themselves to the crowd, thanking us fans for allowing them to be on stage, to perform for a living. It was too much almost, but the profuse appreciation for the audience never came across as staged or as pandering. It was genuine. Austin’s Lean Hounds set [...]

"When it came to live performance, Depth & Current’s show augmented the intensity of the music with an equally intense visual experience. The band’s low tech (but still effective) light and fog show was always part of the mix up until the time that hundreds of feet of extension cords were littering the stage, creating a liability for venues and their sensitive breaker boxes". "Enter the fifth and final member of Depth & Current, Joey Powell, who now runs the more [...]

we had a great gig in Toronto last night. We played at Bread & Circus in Kensington Market, a lovely area that reminded me alot of Ashbury Heights in San Fransisco. Lots of organic food and alternative clothing. At first we were a bit dissapointed, after the last band had soundchecked for like two hours, we were told to hurry up and got a 10 minute soundcheck. Luckily we're pretty few and pretty well prepaired so we were ok anyway. The show was great, Jonas played the iPhone, Jocke descended to an old piano in the midst of the [...]
by mikey I really don't have much to say right about now but airports remind me of geographical points across the large sphere of earth. With the olympics on, it's nice to dream of a transcontinental unity being something easy and natural to possess. But I think there are some basic obstacles in the way of world peace. Besides the obvious ones like power, religion, and domination. I think the main source of everyday, person to person friction is moodiness . People pump so much [...]
