Did they mention that bees won’t fly near cell phones because they hate the radio waves? We’re talking colony collapse, people.

Anyone have this available for download? Couldn’t find it on FSF :-

I met Murph backstage recently and he said "so, are you just a fan?" and I blurted out at him "I don’t know if I’m JUST a fan!" and then he offered to get me a beer, haha. the effort was endearing

I can top that– the Pussycat Dolls Although I don’t know if they count as a "band" since there were no "instruments."

The worst instrument-playing band was this John Cale (ex-Velvet Underground) outfit I saw in college– truly terrible. Grouchy, off key, etc.

wait, why are you a J fan? haha

I think Hand It Over is an all-around underrated album…I remember that people were so snobby about it when it came out (never understood why) but I would gladly watch J perform "Alone" a million times– acoustic, electric, on a xylophone, whatever. The rest of the album is such a beautiful mixed bag of sounds. I love it.

I can’t stop laughing long enough to post anything relevant here, sorry

Mr Macasis if you’re nasty!

theres a camera set up on js side of the stage are were they filming the show for something i hope a new dvd

they had a house video system and were screening the show live on a screen in the club, like they do in big arenas (which was strange because the club was fairly small; good views everywhere).

per the Flying V I think the dude behind me summed it up best when he said "what the fuck is that?" haha.

best concert I’ve been to in a long time! rowdy and loud! my eardrums are still raw.

Anthony, I toasted you with a Corona, hope that’s okay. incidentally, I also totally succumbed to the Camel propaganda and had my first cigarette in a year. those bastards, it tasted so good!

thanks OSX for everything.

sorry I jumped to a bad conclusion like that. hope you’re feeling well and that the tat is healing nicely

[rosa]

oh god dude, those are cigarette burns.

I don’t have any tats but I always wondered what the dynamics of tattooing over scar tissue were?

the ink looks really good!

Hey, you could get good money for that percocet My mom had oral surgery last year and they prescribed her Vicodin and she was like "what the hell am I going to do with Vicodin?" I said to her "I know a guy…"

This baby news is news to me– congratulations J & L! I’m rooting for a little Mascis girl I envision a holstein-themed nursery and lots of electric bedtime lullabies.

Regarding all the circumcision (genital mutilation) business, my understanding is that the U.S. is responsible for something like 80% of circumcisions worldwide, and more and more American parents are getting hip to the fact that it is totally unnecessary. I don’t plan on birthing any kids in this lifetime but if I did, no one would be coming near any of their privates with a scalpel just because someone happened to think "it looks better" or "we want him to look the same in the locker room" or "I was cut so my kid should be cut too." I’m honestly surprised to see that so many freaksceners think that some stupid social norm should be preserved just because "that’s the way it’s done."

Also, keep in mind that people will generally prefer what they’re accustomed to– so if you ask American women, who’ve seen nothing but circumcised men, what they like, they’ll tell you "cut." But in Europe and most other places, they’ll answer "uncut." It generally comes down to exposure (no pun intended), education, and how receptive people are to change.

And Stefka, my mom did natural childbirth with midwives both times– you guys are so tough and smart! I am proud! How do people forget that babies have been coming out of va-jay-jays for thousands of years? The medicalization of childbirth is a whole other issue I could blab about for days…

that’s helpful, thanks.
