WatchHere’s another Throwback Thursdays, this time a CX Kidtronik show from a couple of years ago when we went on a mini-mob through holland and belgium. This dude is one of the craziest performers that I have seen in quite some time. QUITE. SOME. TIME. He had his boy Soup back him up and Soup brought his lady to back it up on stage. Before someone hollers exploitation, she was waaaayyyyyyy...
“We’ve deconstructed all our icons. We know politicians are lying assholes, we...”

on THEM pretty THANGS.
THANK GOD THIS BLOG IS BACK. The big homie REVOK tweeted about the blog being back on line a while ago and I damned near had a fit. From the layout to the content, it’s everything that I think a blog should be and it’s ran by people I don’t know. Or if I do, fuck it anyway since they are just crushing shit. Some people use blogs to give themselves some extra zing since (in the...
“….I grew up in a different era and was more interested in creating...”
– Salman Agah (this was about skateboarding, but all of the personality based forms of entertainment usually start with this in mind. the paradigm shift that people are looking for is really a bunch of little shifts, bringing things once hidden from view to the surface.)

Rest In Peace Trish Keenan of BROADCAST.
This shit is becoming way too normal right now, I’m not trying to turn this blog into a obituary. I only knew her music, but it touched me in ridiculous ways for most of the last decade. When I was homeless and loveless, a song like “Come on, let’s go” saved my motherfucking life. I’m tearing up as I write this because this is the first time I felt a such a huge loss...

Watchhere is HEALTH acting a fucking fool in NYC on a stormy summer day. it was some festival by the water and when the thunderstorm came, all the people that you would refer to as “hipsters” scattered like roaches, rats and other assorted vermin. I went there with the homie Nick Thorburn and we entered a 4 on 4 basketball tourney, which we lost. Nick had some never before seen balling...

and the next president will be a gay vampire....
Simply because it can’t go any other way. Ever since Bela Lugosi and probably way before that if you think of Vlad Tepes, the idea of some dude drinking your blood is just out there moving. Anne Rice made it some weird sexual thing back before it was even cool to be a vampire or gay. Interview With A Vampire brought the whole southern victorian vampire thing to the fore. You started to see...

Watchhere’s some old footage of this Dilla Tribute show that happened in 07-08 at the Knitting Factory in LA. it’s one of those things where everyone was there, everyone was in the crowd and everyone was enjoying themselves on behalf of Dilla. I think that was Belief taking the stage when the tape cut off, I’m not sure. J-Roccc was on the tables and Choc was hosting. You see dudes...
