Sax-a-ma-phone... Sax-a-ma-phone



Happy Monday after Thanksgiving. The management would like to apologize for the recent lag in post frequency.

Between the MoMA reopening and a much-needed week in Miami, it has been difficult to get up the will to write. Here's a free tip: if you're trying to dry out, don't spend a week with your party-happy parents and their 1,000-bottle wine cellar. I have reached the fat-with-a-beard-Jim-Morrison stage in my development as an alcoholic.

As promised, above is a Zutons pic from the MoMA opening. Below is Perry Farrell on the wheels of steel. Turns out camera phones take sucky pictures. Who knew?



A special thanks to all those who ventured to the mysterious heart of Brooklyn for the final nail in the coffin. Despite less-than-stellar turnout, a great time was had by all. Bacardi and Cola played a spirited debut set (if I do say so ourselves). It was an auspicious start at the very least.

As I reintegrate myself into non-vacation society, I leave you with these delectable treats:

First, from the "give me a fucking break" file, the kids who sing the "We don't need no education..." part in Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2" are suing for back royalties. Second, LK sent me this, which he referred to as "without a doubt the best thing ever created by western civilization." I'm inclined to agree.

**UPDATE: the above link has been updated.** Also, here's a slightly exaggerated recap of the Zutons' MoMA gig from NME
