Sgt. Pepper Must Die!

This is one of the most entertaining music articles I have read recently. Check it out from the Guardian (UK). I have to admit I am dating a Beatles hater, and as a Beatles fan I really dislike Sgt. Pepper's and who better to sum it up than Billy Childish. I love all of these blurbs , just cause something is considered a "seminal" album doesn't mean it is for everyone. I love The Doors and Pink Floyd ones too, cause both are things I never have really loved or gotten into even after four years at UCSB and growing up in SoCal. I just wish someone would have done a Bob Marley one...

Pipettes was cute and fun, but nothin crazy awesome. I loved Smoosh though they are so little and talented. They covered Bloc Party's "This Modern Love" which was awesome. There is something about a 13 year old girl singing "I'll pay for you anytime" that is a little wrong though :)

Upcoming Shows:
7/6- Slim Cessna's Auto Club at 12 Galaxies
7/12 Black Lips at Popscene
7/27 Grinderman at Slim's

I am liking the Long Blondes cd kinda like Pulp mixed with Elastica and DHC.

Still recovering from the Arcade Fire show

Wow what an awesome night. I couldn't have been happier got to hang out with a lot of good friends and dance my butt off right in front of the stage. Didn't get back until 6am. I wish I was partying hard all night, however I passed out at around 2:00 at a friends place and had to leave because their cats were giving me an allergy attack.

I went to a pre-release party for the new Rufus Wainwright CD, Release the Stars, a while ago and have been loving it for months. How did I not hear that "Tulsa" is about a tryst he had with Brandon Flowers?? Wow it doesn't get much hotter than that :)


And apparently this is the fat guy in the green shirt from the song. Check it out photographic evidence in his myspace pics.

Anyways, I am excited for LCD this Friday and the Pipettes next week. Any Memphis suggestions are welcome as I think I will be going to Goner Fest with Joe at the end of Sept.
