It's 5!

Actually, I think it's visit number three. At any rate, Architecture In Helsinki is back on May 26th at Richard's. (thanks Chris)

I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness is at the Media Club the very next day.

For no particular reason, how about some live, unreleased Jenny Lewis with the Watson Twins?

Rainer Maria are at a venue TBA on May 7th.

If you're like me, you're waiting with baited breath for Pearl Jam to announce leg 2 of their North American tour dates. Well, you can anticipate even more, as Sonic Youth is tipped as the opener on the West Coast.

Finally, fuck Morrissey. I'm not going to get into the holocaust analogy or the China comparisons... but if the Mozzer is willing to not play in Canada over the seal hunt, he might want to take a look in his own LA backyard and realize he lives in a country that illegally invaded another country, resulting in the deaths of thousands of people. Of course, innocent Iraqis aren't as cute as baby seals, are they, Stephen?

now playing: Wilco - Misunderstood

Agreed on the Moz thing. But he now lives in Rome...I seem to recall some Italians helpin out the Nazis in WW2.

My thoughts exactly on the Morrissey thing - you don't see him skipping US dates, do you? I understand that you have to pick and choose your battles - and I am not for the seal hunt - but as far as polical statemetns go i am not so sure about this one.

I told you that Joy Division are better than the Smiths. Ian Curtis would never have pulled such an idiotic boycot ... because, well, he's dead and all.
