Also - Finest Dearest are FINALLY coming to NYC in April, after a swing through SXSW. They are doing a show on Wed 4/23 w/Kinetic at a Venue TBA. Coincidently, just the other day Subinev Bryan wisely recommended Kinetic to me and I'm glad he did. They are real good. Check em out. They'll also be at The Delancey next Fri 2/22 w/ former KOers Cinema, Cinema. CC at 11, Kinetic at 11:45. $8

And here's something fun to do the night before:

BTW - Subinev Bryan is getting older. And a celebration in his honor is happening next Friday. Let them eat cupcakes.

RE: SX -> SEE THE SHACKELTONS.
SX and NYC dates:

March 13 – Austin, TX @ SXSW - Planetary Skewer BBQ
March 13 – Austin, TX @ SXSW - Above the Radar - Trophys Bar and Grill - 5:00 pm
March 15 – Austin, TX @ SXSW - SxSeattle Party - Palm Door 3:45 pm
March 21 - New York City @ Canal Room


And keep an eye open for HOSPITAL BOMBERS & ALAMO RACE TRACK. Showcases and venues TBA.

Sidenote - Anyone else enjoying Breaking Bad as much as I am??? And after last weeks Lost, which was probably the best episode of the series so far, last night's episode was a huge letdown and was probably one of the worst.

edit - Ok, so after rewatching last week's Lost, I take back my comments. The episode was good, but I am still not sold on the flash forwards.

This should be a good time:

I was listening to WNYU the other day. The '(Make The) Product' show was on. Good stuff. Really need to tune in to NYU more often.

I'm sure you've heard by now that KEXP is coming to our NYC airwaves. NICE. Maybe there is hope for us afterall.

Is it weird that I bought a V-day gift for my iTouch? I dream of a day where our love will be socially acceptable.

That's all for now.

Last night's episode one of the worst?

I actually thought it was pretty great. Sayid the killer, supposedly "protecting" his friend? Ben (or was it?) as his boss. Serious clues about the time-travel issues with the island. And a growing revolt against Locke (and maybe a sign that the island is turning against him?).

All pretty fascinating to this watcher...

As for Breaking Bad, I've got it all on Tivo but haven't had a chance to watch any of it yet.

I don't like the flash forwards. While interesting, I feel that they may be causing the show to lose it's focus. We'll see.
