BLAST AT UNCLE LOU'S 12-1-07
Virulence, nonconformism, plain rebelliousness, and discontent are just so many more products on the capitalist market: they are consumer goods. Lacking an awareness of how to utilize what is ours for our true liberation, all of these "progressive" alternatives come from the leftist wing of the System, the improvement of its cultural products. They will be doomed to carry out the best work on the left that the right is able to accept today and this will only serve the survival of the latter. -Fernando Solanas and Octavio Getino

Hey gabe, your band blows. I’d rather listen to 9 hours of DMB with my nails being pulled out by a set of pliers than hear your “Detergent” band. Maybe if you write enough nice comments on your blog, CL will give you a write up for your next Denny’s gig."
i think he's on to something, i'd love to play at a denny's. we'd probably get some free 'moons over my hammy' action out of it.
Hey guys, were waiting on the other side of Mugglers to open up so we can have room to host an entire and loud band such as you guys! Cant wait! In the mean time come on buy and check us out when we do shows, maybe even do an acoustic set???
