I like Elbeejay as a name. I'd probably have a band called DeeFdubya (David Foster Wallace).

First ever for the band as in First Time Played.

Not to add fuel to your fire but China also owns a great deal of American's credit card debt. So they make money off both ends, extend credit to consumers to buy cheap Chinese manufactured goods. Like Norway's Petroleum Fund and Alberta's Heritage Fund it is China's SAFE fund that is a particularly scary example of what you can do with your heaps of oil money.

I sort of forget I have more than a handful of these stories of my own. I gues the best or earliest was being 18 yrs. old and selling weed to The Roots and getting to hang on their bus. I then got to hang backstage and met the Jungle Bros., Cypress Hill and ERYKAH BADU (who is also wicked short but mega hot). I also realized once they got on stage and were in their diapers and star child regalia that I'd smoked dope and given hash to the bulk of P Funk. Meeting Ronnie Hawkins was probably the ultra shit for me (didn't have my hat!). But also at 14 I had met Levon Helm and Rick Danko well before he passed which was really nerve wracking. Danko was crusty as you'd expect but talked to us for a bit and Levon was so kind and guided me through the whole thing cause I hardly couldn't talk.

Yeah it's Ernesto. You never heard the Ernie from Sesame Street is named after Trey's dad story (his mom worked for Jim Henson quite closely).

I am going to break you over my knee like kindling.

Was that the first time played in Guelph, need it for an article.

Of all people I mean there Toddster. Although I should be glad that you didn't follow the breadcrumb trail. I'd be in tears. Trounced by a grey beard.

How do these booking shots become public so quickly. If you're charged with a crime is there some law that says you're no longer entitled to any privacy whatsoever and moreover the public is entitled to make fun of how you look in the middle of the night after being pulled over for a DWI. Somehow you don't figure it'd by as easy to get a mugshot of Teddy or Patrick Kennedy at the same hour of the morning.

Fair enough. Sometimes it's a matter of just trying to keep yourself amused. Like Tokyo Police Club (total fucking dinks) I mean look at the fucking band name- you know they're going to be dinks. They're a cheap ass Strokes knock off. If you read for instance what I wrote about them... well let me track it down. Tokyo Police Club I mean that's about as close as I can get to saying these guys are cheap ass Strokes clone band from Newmarket who are riding a wave of hype that is largely connected to their cutesy putesy good looks and the fact that they're relatively talented for 19 yrs. old. On a message board where I don't have to worry about catering to an editor or audience I'd probably just say 'gayer than dirt, trust me'.

I bet you think this song is about you.

I'm waiting for Velvet's other shoe to drop.

I couldn't be bothered to read that last bloated post of his.

Dude from West Wing plays him in the movie. I can't remember the name of one of his Turkish proteges but he's the guy who, ironically, put the bright eyed blue eyed into Philly Soul (hell yeah mutherfuggin' Hall & Oates).

I really needed that. Thanks seriously. It's just weird when these people try and tell me why don't you just contribute then. It's like DUDE! Do you think I WANTED to go and see your band. Like 'this guy named Luke' chose to go for his own amusement. Not the case. It's weird cause you see so many bands and most of them suck and you don't want to slag them outright at least in print but you don't want people to take you for granted either. You've been a good supporter MarcO but I've never found you blow smoke up my ass.

I actually like moe. I just don't think they should be held up as remotely 'credible'. They're entertainment not art. Or enterartainment. Galactic just FUCKING BLOWS.

Little sensitive about the Slip there Kev or just taste tyrants like myself? 1/10 is an idiotic thing to say. I mean on sheer chops alone the Slip deserve a 5 even if they just imitated Coltrane or Built To Spill all night. Even in a less than charitable mood I wouldn't give What The Thunder Said less than a 6/10. The guy was an older head who'd seen them years ago ('when they were big') and was convinced that was 'the day'. He also compared them to the Cure, Echo and the Bunnymen and whatnot which seemed like the reference point for a greying head with little taste.

Come on it's not so slanderous. It was just mildly amusing to wake up and check a KW message board and this dude's like followed me there literally. I know he means well and every once in a while makes a sound remark it's just hard to pick out from the bloat. I don't think I need an editor that bad. Maybe a censor.

Bin der dun dat. I think it's on them. I mean fuck I got people out to the Slip show one of whom, didn't pay mind you, gave it a 1/10 but the guy's obviously an idiot. I don't usually feel too bad, people are big boys and girls and besides the whole point of art and appreciating it is taking chances.

Yeah it's the hotty blond rider. I think she's digging on me lately. If she's not going out with this hip hop weeny guy anymore I'm going to ask her out I think.

touche (you know tou-shay - I just can't find the egu)

Unfortunately I'm down at the public library today but let me tell you about the hotty librarian. Seriously this girl looks like she saw Parker Posey's Party Girl a few too many times. Ultra hot with the fashionable glasses and nice hosiery and whatnot. She's like a little character out of Chatelaine. We're friends, it's nice, she's purty. Oh and Steph doesn't 'a couple of bulldogs in a cloth sack' just have a nice ring to it?

I swear to god if you reap what you sow then there is a special bowge in Dante's inferno for me where instead of having my head planted in the soil and my ass skyward (for sodomites) I'll be stuck in some two way internet conversation with Canned fucking beats for eternity. only it will just keep going on and on and on and while I'm at it let me tell you about the other time it went on and on and on and yet I felt none the wiser for reading any of this shit then I just kept reading like really what I wanted was for my eyeballs to fucking bleed with the sheer inane stupidity rolling out of every fucking line (Actually I didn't really mind what he said over there if that was him- it was sort of a shocker)

I fucking go to check how my indie rock trolling is going this morning and what do I see but a suspiciously bloated and run on post by someone posting as Newbold. Am I wrong or isn't that Canned Beats last name? I should never have mentioned the Stillepost shit, don't cross the streams and whatnot a la Ghostbusters but fuck. If I have to put up with this dude on another message board let alone the Kitchener Waterloo board (doesn't that guy live in Vancouver?) I am seriously going to shit.

I know the pics would help. It's basically a bunch of chicks who look like they're from Mississaugau who wear Juicy knock off track pants with asses ranging from grapefruit size to a couple of bulldogs in a cloth sack.
