girls on tv
In a move that makes it even more unlikely that I'll ever tune into Much Music anymore, Hannah Sung is leaving the station after today. Tonight's episode of The New Music is her last, and features a little band called Sonic Youth and an interview with one Frank "Chromewaves" Yang. I'm a touch jealous; not because Frank's going to be on Much, but because he got to meet Hannah. It airs tonight at 6:30pm (pst - but hopefully you'll be at the Vic Square Block Party then) and again at 10:30pm (pst) on Much. Alternately, you can catch it on CityTV on Saturday at 10:30am. (via Chromewaves)
If you didn't catch that first reference, get off the internet and get down to Victory Square!
Stereogum tells us how art anti-hero Banksy pulled one over on Paris Hilton. If you're unfamiliar with Banksy, you should know that he usually does stuff like this, and doesn't spend all his time making statements on millionaire starlets.
The show listing for Hello Blue Roses' opening spot for the Rodney Graham/Book of Lists show still notes "featuring Dan Bejar," which sells Sydney Vermont short. While Dan's musical influence (the guitar work and his backing vocal) is definitely evident, Sydney's doing most of the singing and I assume writing the lyrics (as they don't sound very Bejar-esque). Sounds pretty damn good too.
