Recorded: That The Complete Matrix Collection, the Velvet Underground in San Fran in 69 live, with Lou Reed as sarcastic as is humanly possible and the songs in flux, is very good. Everyone is so young, and so fresh and different and at Grand Zero of the hippie revolution, they sound like nothing out there.
Live: One more week till the all indie all the time concert at Webster Hall. And then… silence. Meanwhile, Isis hate music? Why am I not shocked…
Peace In Our Time: Brooklynvegan used our Angel Haze story for their pull yesterday. They’ve ignored us for six years straight, to the point where they didn’t report the Moz In Hospital story because it came from us, so go figure, right?
The World At War: So why, exactly, did a member of NATO, Turkey, shoot down a Russian plane? Apparently this isn’t the first time Russia has entered Turkey airspace.
ISIS: Both the 18 year old and the 15 year old Brides Of Isis are now dead. Samra Kisonovic was beaten to death after attempting to escape back to Austria. And you think your religion is iffy.
My Novel: still deciding between “Dead Hearses” and “Aftermath” for the title, or maybe “Memory Motel”. I am nearing the end of part three, here is a sneak peak: the dead Mick Jagger has just met his Great Grandfather David Jagger.
Videos: I also got around to watching the Beatles greatest videos, it starts off great and then winds down.
