Fuck You Winter

It's so nice outside today. I actually got an outdoor fun run in yesterday without even having to bundle up! The high temp is supposed to 68 today. Fuck yeah. Get outside! Have fun! Watch this video!



Until Then,
Later.

Hot Chip is Back!!!

And I am as well. I haven't posted on this thing in a little while. Real damn life can be a bitch sometimes. Rather than recap everything that happened since 11/09/07, let's watch a video! Here's the new vid from Hot Chip from their forthcoming Made in the Dark album. The song is called "Ready for the Floor". The video is below:



I can't get enough of this fucking song. I haven't heard the album yet, but if the rest of it is as good as this, one of the 2008 albums of the year might come early. February 5, to be exact. I can't wait.

Speaking of albums of the year, I may or may not post a list of my 2007 albums of the year on here soon. End of year lists are kinda lame, but it's my blog, so fuck it. Don't like it, don't read it. You won't be alone either way.

So, that's that. No lobster dinners since the last post, but I did have a holiday feast or two. And New Year's was good. And I saw a ton of good shows. And...I said I wouldn't recap everything since the last post. So I won't. However, I can guarantee that it won't be months before the next post.

Until Then,
Later.

Two Step

Here's another post about shirts. I think more posts have had the label "Chromeo" attached to them than any other since I started this thing. Here comes another one.

A couple months ago (07/13/07 to be exact), I saw Chromeo and Flosstradamus give one of the best performances I've seen all year, occurring in Buffalo, NY. I vaguely remember Dave from Chromeo telling the crowd that there were t-shirts for sale, but to grab them quick because they were almost gone. I, however, didn't bother to look because I didn't want to lose my awesome spot (which I have discussed in a prior post).

Anyway, fast forward a little bit and I see a picture of someone from Flosstradamus (I forget who) rocking what appears to be the Chromeo tour shirt. I also don't remember where I saw it (probably MySpace) and I didn't save the pic so anyone reading this will have to take my word for it.

Then today I'm perusing the old turntablelab.com as I've been known to do and I see that they are apparently selling said tour shirt and it looks like this


I thought I remembered the guy from Flosstradamus wearing a white version of this tee. I'd much prefer that color over this black one. If you ask me, it's kinda blah for a band that is anything but. Like the Hundreds one from yesterday I think I'm gonna skip this one too, but maybe I'll grab it if it's still available during a free shipping sale or something.

Oh yes, and fuck having little to no money and being stuck at home eating nothing but tasteless boring food every night because I can't afford to go out and get something good. I feel like I wanna eat a fucking lobster when I finally get paid again. That and/or get someone in my life that knows how to fucking cook. I think I'm gonna stop now before I really get going. That's all.

Until Then,
Later.

Shirt Attack

One of my favorite punk albums ever was the 1981 self-titled effort from The Adolescents. And, anybody that knows anything will recognize the blue album cover with the red writing. Well, it looks like The Hundreds decided to put their own spin on the idea. I saw this the other day but forgot to post it. Here it is




It's not bad, but I wish they would've gotten the colors right. I would have rather had that shirt in these colors


I think I'll save my $ on this one, but I thought I'd mention it anyway. The tee is available on digitalgravel.com, and speaking of that site, the Temple Effectives shirt from the other day now sold out. So, hopefully I can expect it from a reader for Christmas or maybe just as a gift for being such a great guy. I can only hope.

Until Then,
Later.

Chromeo on Kimmel



Here's Chromeo's network TV debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live, performing the same song as the one in the video posted above. His show is typically awful, but he's been getting some damn good music on there recently. Justice comes to mind. Ordinarily I don't like to post live stuff, but Chromeo will always be an exception. I missed this as it aired, however, because I was getting my ears blown off by High on Fire. I'll post pics when I get the time, along with all the other ones I alluded to recently.

Until Then,
Later.
