Today's Purchase and other notes

It's been the usual up and down quiet than chaos that you read about often on this blog. Most of the times its great, sometimes its eh, and very rarely it sucks a ball, but this is life and it's a better life tham most. If you look closely in the old aggression albums, you'll see a quote "Our week is better than your year", which I believe comes from Lou Reed and still applies to the world of MOG.

Friday was the relaxing night. Sat outside on 2nd ave with Irene, her friend, a bottle of wine and some cheese and just hung out. It was nice out, unlike now as I type. Then Irene grabbed some pasta at Cacio Y Vino for some pasta. It was a relaxing good evening.

Saturday was back to the BK for some pesto power and remixing. We cracked the fucking shit out of this remix. B came up with some sick shit for it and we threw down even more F-Bass. We pretty much finished what needed to be done for the mix. Now B has to record his shit hot drums and some other tweaks before we mix. This might be our best remix ever. I was talking to Jake from SVI and got him psyched about it. His new stuff sounds GREAT and I can't wait for his album. You can hear some of it at: http://www.myspace.com/screenvinylimage

Now hopefully we can get back to the album, but this was a fun exercise.

Saturday night, first, I apologize to the Kidd for our not making his Bday thingy, but we had tickets to see Elbow and my god, they are just fucking awesome. I am dead over Webster Hall and they booked this shit wrong cause half of Jersey was showing up for the club night looking bewildered at the Mancs on stage, but anyway. Elbow wisely has added some string players and they play the deep heart string pulling shit that I love. Guy Garvey again is one of the best frontmen on the planet. It's like the awesome dude at the pub who is hilarious and tells the best stories except then he sings the most soulful shit. Amazing.

Sunday, I went searching for this...



But ended up with this...



(Thanks Dave!)

Then we went home, Irene cooked some sick awesome Korean pork and I watched the sport. Ace. Now, its dickie time...
