Go figure. On an evening where there are tons of options for night life, Mother Nature decides to take a giant piss on us. Ivan, Frances, Gene or whoever the fuck you are... Please leave us alone. We just want to party. If you are brave enough to emerge from whatever bunker you're holed up in, may I suggest one of the million shows going down this evening.
1. The Stammers w/The Boxes @ Trash Bar: The Stammers hit during the 9-10pm free period where you can drink all the PBR and well drinks your system can handle. Karl promises to make out with all who attend. If you aren' a fan of either band, its ok. Just go to see Kevin Smith on bass. That creap can roll.
2. The Head Set w/Film School @ Sin-e: Be there by 11pm for the Head Set because Jordan wants you to witness his microphone love making. Stick around for Film School who are creating what forcasters like to call a "buzz".
3. VHS or Beta @ The Knitting Factory: If I have to tell you anything about these guys, then you are on the curve. They are funk'd out rock with new material laced with Robert Smith like vocals. They are celebrating the release of their second album (Astralwerks) tonight at the Knit.
4. The Melvins @ Webster Hall: Do you remember the 90's? If not, The Melvins are here to drop a refresher course.
5. The Go Station @ Rothko: How many times could I say that I want to see this band and then I can't go? Well, at least one more.
If its party you are looking to make, check out one of these two options:
1. End All Music @ Black & White (10th St. between 3rd & 4th Ave, Manhattan) with DJ's Jo (Divestar) and J.R. (X-Surface)
2. Popfrenzy @ Red & Black (135 N 5th in Williamsburg) with hostess Nora K and DJ's Greg K (Misshapes) and Mortex (The Good North)
Additionally, I was listening to Interpol's Antics today at lunch and something struck me. People, and you know who you are, have been bitching about this record saying Paul Banks doesn't show any vocal range, (or he doesn't have any). Well, it made me think of one person; Ian Curtis. I don't want to get into the obvious comparisons because we already beat those dead in 2001, but I do want to say that I think he has a great voice even if my impression of him is sprinkled with jackass.

Paul Banks' vocals sound half like the singer from the Tragically Hip and half Travis from Dismemberment Plan.
gord downie from the tragically hip? i'm impressed with the far out reference. i actually think that guy is really fucking smart, despite the canadian yoekel sound the tragically hip have got going. didn't they just play at the bowery ballroom with sam roberts? anyway, good luck to your friends in the stammers. i remember when you posted their first show and it seemed to turn out pretty worthwhile. let me ask you something: this guy karl, is he down for a full on ass bang or are we just talking first base? if the former is allowed, his ass might take a real beating after the gig because i heare some of his female fans (one in particular) really likes strap ons. scat turdly
I mean---JOhnny Cash, God rest his soul, had a four-note voice range, and anyone who talks shit about the man in black will just end up with turds in their mouth.
that's bullshit about cash. when he was young he had all kinds of range. he might not have been mariah carey but the dude could sing. scat
Scat find something, even in his younger days, that displays range. He's no Mariah carey, but you lick more nuts than George Michael. Nothing personal, but the man in black, in all his glory, had less than an octave.
ouch... more balls than george michael... for real? well, you handle more packages than fed-ex. and just like fed-ex, you're guranteed to deliver, or you'll swallow the cost of the load. just fuckin with you. still, for essentially a country singer cash had acceptable range. it's not not as if everything he sang sounded the same. aswell, he did get more single pitch when he got older. i guess i thought you were slamming him, which i just won't allow. damn, that george michael joke was the shizznit though. i guess he's a good person to bring up if a guys' oral range is on your mind. scat turdly
Oral Range...brilliant. But you still slaughter more cocks than Frank Purdue.
