...the good news or the bad news? The bad news is, according to NME.com, Lollapalooza has been cancelled due to poor ticket sales. No Morrissey, Walkmen, or Pixies for us this summer. Thanks to Volume's recurring beef with the Brooklyn fire marshall, that's two Walkmen shows that have been cancelled in the last two weeks. Hopefully they can pull a show together in the near future. I need my fix!
The good news, at least for the management, is that after a couple abortive attempts I have finally managed to get one of my mean-spirited little gripes aired on The Black Table's esteemed Black List. My dissatisfaction with Friday's Franz Ferdinand crowd is bordering on an obsession. For the record, I did have a good time. Anyway, I need all the encouragement I can get on a nasty day like this. I had tickets to today's Brooklyn Cyclones season opener in Coney Island, but it's sure to be a rain-out. Can you beat that? It's all about ups and downs, ins and outs. Like a circle in a spiral, like a wheel within a wheel. Yesterday England wins their Euro Cup match 4-2 and advances to the next round, today the Cyclones get the shaft. It's enough to make one wax all philosophical and consider the delicate balance of all things in the universe's clockwork ebb and flow... and perhaps treat oneself to a fast-food burger for lunch.
