DAN DEACON EBAY YEAAAAAAHHHH

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

So I’m selling this lyrics sheet I got at a Dan Deacon show…I’m broke as hell and I know someone out there would at least drool a few bucks into my wallet over this thing…Here is a link to the item. Go buy it for more than is reasonable…and here is the email I sent to basically every “hippo” blog in the world…this is FUN!!! WHOO!!!

Hey there kids,

Just a heads up that I will be selling the crumpled, beaten up, sweaty piece of paper containing the chant-a-long lyrics for “Wham City” that I obtained at Dan Deacon’s October 17, 2007 show at the Bowery Ballroom during CMJ. That’s right, I was one of the super cool kids who got to be up front for the now legendary, crowd splitting performance..I even got to hold his crazy flashing kitty! Yet somehow, my short burst of fame (pictures of me in the crowd on Stereogum AND Pitchfork!!…aww yeah…BV missed the boat) has faded and I have fallen on hard times, so I will have to sell my coveted lyrics sheet.

Here is a link to the item, and I am giving you all the scoop on this bizarre but true story. Your readers might want to know, especially the ones who weren’t warrior enough to have been there!

Its authenticity is guaranteed by…uhh….me….and my status as a Life Scout (Eagle was too hard). Really, I would have no reason to fake this and risk my ebay account. This thing is as real as Ethan Hawke in Gattaca.

Thanks and a happy bidding to you and your respective shorties!

EDIT: Per Ant’s request. BAM! RIGHT THERE!!!!

Holga: My Roof

Three more hits from the Holga, taken after a few hits from the Cypress Hill bong…BTW these friggin cost me like 8 bucks each to get scanned. Now I know why everyone stopped using film…



The Beatles – Revolution #9 – Performed by Alarm Will Sound

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

String ensemble Alarm Will Sound had the balls to take on “Revolution #9″, the Beatles’ noisepiece from the white album.

I walked in to Ant having a hissy fit because I made him save our seats. The angry voice messages he left me while waiting are priceless. I came back to find him fuming, but we instantly settled down to check out a pretty daring performance…

Pretty damn cool in theory, until security told me to stop filming, I still saved the audio for all the Beatles nerds out there. And if you can’t read the messages on Ant’s cell phone during the performance, don’t worry, they are terrible, terrible things.
