I'm sad ....

The new clubs reported to be gearing up in Chelsea are more a reaction of opportunism. Although I am sure some backers and producers are really inspired and want to bring the city back to life partywise. The club going in to the old Twilo space, which is supposedly going to be called Spirit, would be the most different concept being put to the test, is actually a franchise from its Irish flagship, and if you ask me its ammenities ( a raw food restaurant, a resident dance company ) are a kind...

Kersh just sent me this... its to appear in the British press (independent I think...) 'He was the most important person in British music since the birth of rock 'n' roll' By Andy Kershaw It was like I had been hit by a hammer. Jenny Abramsky, the BBC's controller of network radio, called me and said: "I've got some bad news for you, and I think you ought to sit down." As soon as she said that, my mind just raced and in a flash, before she had said it, I thought "Peel's dead". John had died...

Me and the tyke have been going there allot..he danced there at the counter 'headbangin' to Joy Division then the Clash with the cute lil Jared Leto server boy... ahhh it certainly beats Chuckie Cheese for a 4yr old!

Been hunting around the interweb for radio to break the monotony of having to work this week, and found a station that I'm really loving called DayGlo Radio. It's all 80s, but great selections - not just the standard "Boys Don't Cry" variety, either (though there is a fair amount of that, and Duran Duran, Clash, Smiths, etc). Lots of Siouxsie, too! Check it out here: DayGlo

Reggae (the deep dub stuff) was VERY influential back then. It was the first thing that brought the worlds of "Disco/Club" and "Punk/Rock" together. For example... I came out of the whole Downtown, CBGB, Punk, No Wave, Art Rock thing. But I used to go to Discos like The Paradise Garage etc. and these were always two totally different worlds. UNTIL Dub Reggae. I was DJing at Danceteria by then and for the first time the 2 worlds came together musically. The sound was deep, dark, druggy &...

American radio is shit anyways, unless you have XM Radio or some equivalent thereof. Also too many DJs (not the Soulwax guys)play one type of music and one type of music only. Unfortunately I wasn't there at the Garage (born in the wrong decade I guess!) By the way those 2 many Djs discs are mad! Talk about types of music that don't go together! I mean mad in a good way. New Order and the Clash are punk and they aren't. the Clash became more mainstream as they dragged on and New Order was...

August 5, 2008 East Village, Before the Gentry By COLIN MOYNIHAN Over the last 15 years Q. Sakamaki, a Japanese photographer living in New York, has forged a reputation as a documentarian of conflict and suffering. From the civil war in Liberia to the misery of sex workers in Bangladesh, he creates pictorial narratives of the devastation that unfolds when military or economic forces collide with ordinary human lives. But his new book, "Tompkins Square Park" (powerHouse Books), returns to...

Ok, I dropped out of this board for a time. When I came back I am reading that some of you would probably vote for Hamas? This is a political-military arm of radical islam which would not hesitate to hang most if not all of the members of this board. We are not talking of Che Geuverra and any romantic cigar smoking political figures. We are talking about a group who is dedicated to the utter destruction of the only democracy in the middle east that actually protects the rights of women and...

my first day off in 6 months and I'm awakened by this?!?! my fav punk band ever. period. politics and aggression, reggae and humour. i got to see Joe and his new band last year and he threw in a couple of clash songs... as close as i'll ever get to seeing them play live - and i was going to beg, borrow and steal to get into the Hall of Fame induction ceremony because they were going to regroup. damn. RIP Mr. Strummer 'no, i just read it somewhere.' - tom stoppard

I hate to piss all over the floor here... but... I really think that Liz Phair is just an adult Avril Lavigne (sp).... Liz was just a decent rocky chick.. but all of a sudden she hired a stylist who has created a marketed image.... same thing just recently happened with Jewel (what's up with uptight poet girl suddendly dressin like Carmen Elektra)... its all a cry for record sales.. to me this ain't the rock ethic... but i guess i am ole fashioned and still listening to the Clash... BTW,...
