THURSDAY, THAT'S MY FUN DAY

I'm blogging, Strikes Again! is eating at a restaurant somewhere on Grand St, I think.

Fucking great band, fucking great guys, fucking great show.

I saw DFactor and Anonymous, met Tony from the Beatings, and talked Strikes!'s (check out that punctuation, bitch) collective ear off with thoughts about EQ in a live setting.

It was... a blast. The best sound is often right at the front of the stage, where you hear the band, instead of the sound guy's hangover.

The Roughs Kill Me

I also received the roughs of "The Robots Kill Everyone" from George of Via Skyway. The Misanthrope is right; it sounds like a record. It'll sound like an immense chunk of dark beauty when it's done. All of the basic parts are represented in the roughs but will eventually be played by a cast of thousands. I'm pruod of George and how focused he's been.

I want to hear Mike's Replacements-Like records. John VA tells me Mike's made two.

There's so mcuh I don't know about these people I worship with. I say "worship" because music is sacred, and music is sound, and listening to sound is communion.
