PUNK ROCK PROM

WAS amazing. Probably some of the most fun I've had in a long while. Playing David Bowie cover tunes in a backyard to a bunch of punks... so awesome. I recommend everyone do this at least once in their life. Blastified...

On another note. I've been really into Anamanaguchi lately. So there's that.

R.I.P. CUCU


Today is the day (as Lesley and Greg will tell you) that I discovered that one of my favorite bands, Chin Up Chin Up, is no longer in existence. I know they said "fairwell" to fans earlier this year, but due to the hiatus they took, I didn't keep a close enough eye on them to notice. Some of the members left to form Vacations, which I do enjoy. I feel like Chin Upx2 had a lot more going on with the music and didn't make me feel like I was stuck in a tourist trap in Hawaii (**not a bad thing). Oh well... I guess these things happen. I do regret not seeing this wonder of a band live and then again, I don't recall them ever touring close enough to me that it would have been feasible to attend a show. I wrote a review of their sophomore release a couple years back and have had them in constant rotation on my iPod since I first heard their first record.

I had planned on leaving links to CUCU stuff but cannot find any on the web. I strongly encourage you get ahold of their material. It's great.

Despite what I have said here, Vacations is actually a really good band. They deserve some listening.

Check them.
