What do Jessica Rabbit, Monty Python, Blue MOnday, and Audrey Hepburn doing "Moon river" have in common?

Went and saw Kid Koala at the never-disapointing Mercury on thursday. WOW. This guy knows how to wreck shop on the wheels, jebus. The absolute best performer of turntabular synthesis (yes i coined that term right now) around today. He managed to beat juggle and/or just straight up reconfigure all of the above songs. The Audrey Hepburn beat juggle was absolutely breathtaking. This guy is honestly creating completely new music with this simple machine. I still cannot believe im being allowed to witness this revolution as it happens.
ooooooooooh weeee.
Friday night we had an impromptu parlay which got a bit crazy but all went well! Saturday I got to hang with some friends and meet some really cool people.
Couple all things together with the finished psychological research study I did sitting in front of me and god damn, I can actually say im feelin pretty good today.

Holy bejebus I hope everyone out there was able to see some of the meteors last night. It wasnt even worht going out unless you went out between 4 and 5, trust me on this. But damn, me and some friends went down to Wimberley and just laid back and enjoyed the show. It wasnt a matter of IF we saw any, it was HOW MANY we saw per minute. Absolutely phenomenal. One of the best ones Ive seen. There were times when so many would happen in succession that it would create the image of a bike wheel and spokes, with Jupiter as the hub.
I also got the double benefit of getting a little more acquainted with the new Sigur Ros album. See, it's not as good as their first one, they are really just kind of playing off the hype that everyone expected them to get. The album itself sounds like a crisper, less raw, and therefore more formulaic version of the previous record. Still a wonderful piece of work, just not half as good as Aegtis Byrnum (sp?). HOWEVER, for early morning stargazing out in the texas hill country, this album proves to be an excellent choice. Cheers to the guys who picked that to crank while we all stared into the abyss that is our home.

Long time time since last post, but brought on by an equally long weekend (figure out the logistics of THAT!).
The insanisty began on thursday, for those of you who dont remember, halloween. Went out with some friends to a club, then went to a parlay with a bunch of people i didnt know. It ended up nicely though cause htis guy had his turntables out. Like every other trendy kid with a bit of money, he had no idea how to use them. Oh but he could scratch. Whoopity doo. so can my cat. So while he was was 'scratching' i asked if i could try my hand at the wheels of steel. Its been well over a year or two since ive touched tables, so i wasnt sure of my abilities. Well I ended up launching into a set of just popular dance tunes but god damn if it wasnt fun and god damn if it didnt go smoothly. Was a blast. An impromptu dj gig and a chance to reaffirm myself. Lovely.

Friday we head to waco to visit lil sister and go to another party which i was djing (burned the mix before hand). That was a hoot, and it was good to see my sister in her own turf.

Saturday we headed to houston, with a very nice little stop off in bryan. Houston blew because the band sucked and the company sucked even worse...but ya know, win some, lose some. All in all a glorious weekend. 530 miles later and our "Dirty South" tour is complete, and im a tired, tired man.
