"Chip, You Know I Hate the Brown Word"

Oh yeah... blogging... riiiight.

April Fools Day celebration of Brian the Designer's beeday was a blast. As you can see, we played old-school video games all night.

Also, the monkey on Brian's chest began to glow with love and benevolence, healing everyone's hangover.

Saturday provided no respite from the alcoholic spiral. LCD Soundsystem show at Bowery Ballroom was brilliant. Never has so much cowbell filled one room! The cowbells outnumbered the hipsters two to one! Although the cover of Siouxie's "Slowdive" left something to be desired, they did a monster cover of Nilsson's "Jump into the Fire" that fully redeemed their sins. As you can see, camera phones are not ideal for capturing live music...

The increasing workload at the management's day job has forced blogductivity to suffer noticeably. For this I apologize. In the meantime, come to Low-Life tomorrow night at Rififi. We'll be playing a British-only music set (assuming the other Secret Square agrees). Hey, when you spin records week after week, you gotta try to keep things interesting.

Speaking of the Secret Squares, I found this fun quote:

"New York Herald Tribune women's editor Eugenia Shepard has found what she calls The Secret Squares--people who can determine 'the thin dividing line between a little touch of the chic new vulgarity and the absolute dead end.'"

That is the perfect definition of the Secret Squares!
