Yeah, Colby never looks like the rest of those classy bitches. He's much more at home when you watch him play bass with the Dirtbags however. I liked his cartwheel where he basically fell into the wall of the hallway in the Hotel Mac. Fuckin Colby. haha At the very least he buys me drinks at the Likwid when he's drunk! haha So yeah, he's a swell guy in my books.

Hey eric, good to stick to your guns, I wouldn't share that shit with gaut if my life depended on it either...
now how about for your ol' friend Jere though, here's my e-mail address

thegaut@gmail.com

like thank fuckin' gawd that Bassist wore something that matched the rest of those classy bitches during the interview. that guy's unbuttoned chach shirts and backwards baseball caps always stand out like an arrow-straight cunt hair.

haha, that MBP site has been up for a loooong time. Last autumn I sent them a question to the "Ask Mark" section just to piss them off, and here's the response I got:

Dear Mr. Ramone,

Hmmmmmmmmmmm, let me think about this for a second. Okay! I got it! Quit being such a faggot. I could make no sense of your question. That's the kind of shit that spews out of the mouth of girls who prematurely hit puberty. Does your mother hold your hand while you cross the street. JESUS CHRIST! Be a man and do what you got to do and get some self esteem and quit wasting my time. That is my advice to you. I'm sure you are a fine person who anyone would like to talk to at anytime and would still think you were cool.

Love Mark

P.S.
But don't call me until after January 4 Taylor, because I just moved and I'm waiting for my phone to get hooked up.

P.P.S
I didn't really mean all of that harsh shit, that was for everybody elses benefit. And my amusement.



However, my question and the above stated response never quite made it to the website I'm afraid. hahaha

man, I swear to you I'll make an entirely new site once we get a name.

Jeezish.

I only caught the second half (from the end of the Faunts interview onwards (and before I get shit for misnaming, "the Faunts interview" ≠ "The Faunts' interview")). I dunno, I thought it good, but a little disappointed that it's only an annual event (seems to me they could come here more than once a year). Good for Mark Birtles Project, what a bunch of classy bitches. I know they've been selling a lot of albums here (well, a lot for independent music; I know they were on top of CJSR's album list for a number of weeks), and it's great that their getting more exposure. (On another note, I'm glad they have an actual website now. Having this site as one of the top google hits for them made me feel kind of bad.)

I'm not sure what other insights I can add to the Going Coastal thing, except to say I'm looking forward to that album from Our Mercury this "spring" (whatever "spring" means in the realm of album releases.) Oh yeah, and while updating their site more recently than Nameless is definitely good, it would be nice if Our Mercury had more information there.

so... what'd you all think?

hey REMINDER, MUCH DOES EDMONTON!!
also, I GOT THE DEATH FROM ABOVE VIDEO FROM CONAN!!!! AND I TOTALLY AIN'T SHARIN' THAT SHIT WITH NO ONE, ESPECIALLY GAUT!!!

speaking of Limp Bizkit, how bout his Xanga account:

http://limpbizkit.com/

pitchfork's description:

There's something rather touching about Durst's online presence: The way his Xanga blog used to seem indistinguishable from those of his teenaged fans, the pop star living right down there in the emotional headspace of the kids. But there's also something creepy about it: His online persona has evolved into a pretty good imitation of God's in the Old Testament. Catch him in a good mood, and he's testing the faithful, asking die-hard fans whether they're willing to rise up for him, or talking about his feelings in weird, pseudo-poetic prose. Turn your back on him, though-- worship a golden calf in a Korn t-shirt, or just gripe about the progress of the new album-- and yea, he is a wrathful Durst: "all of this for what? you? us? we will always respect the respectful and we will always say fuck you to the rest of you." Which is cool and all, but is there anything quite as insane as a "high-level" Interscope executive wasting his time telling teenagers to fuck off?

If you're ever wondering who drives a Hummer, your clichéd imagined view will probably be right. Picture the hulking guy, built to shuffle sideways through doors, with the large gold chain and, of course, the camo cap. When I saw one of these conscientious citizens in the flesh, I was truly amazed by how perfectly he fit the stereotype. I wonder if they get a checklist with the owner's manual...
