These Days: Friday, June 19th, 2015

IMG_2427Live: Wolf Alice were pretty good at Le Poisson Rouge last night, they are at a very exciting place in their career right now with the debut album dropping on Tuesday. But their connection with the audience left something wanting, That shouldn’t be a problem for Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga tonight at Radio City Music Hall.

Death: Bobbi Kristina Brown, who has been unresponsive for months, is heading home to die, despite her heartbroken father Bobby’s wishes to keep her on life support as he prays for a miracle. As a huge Whitney Houston fan, I am very sorry her daughter is going to die so young, you’d just hope Bobbi would have found the joy that seemed to elude her mom.

Recorded: A steady diet of Hudson Mohawke with some Algiers thrown in for test, plus a friend of mine recommends roots rockers Larkin Poe… they have a coupla good songs.

News: OK, folks get ready to throw up. An Arkansas man who ran an animal shelter has been arrested for bestiality, having sex with the dogs under his control. There is film of Jonathan Ford having sexual intercourse, and being penetrated by dogs. Read about it here and while you are about it, here is a story about Julie Driscoll in Australia, arrested for drug possession and caught with film of herself having sex with a dog. My take is, the reason this is cruelty to animals is because the dog doesn’t have the mental capacity to make an informed decision… but, surely sex is instinctual and if there was no force involved is it actually a crime? Certainly, it doesn’t compare to what we do to cows in the name of food.
