A discussion with Dave

"Man, Martha Stewart is so lame. Do you really believe that every July 12th she really 'picks cucumbers and makes pickles' or makes her own 'striped tea towels by removing threads from the weave'? She's too busy making inside deals on Wall St."

"Martha Stewart is like porn. It's a fantasy for people who live in small appartments in the city like myself. They can get off on having a huge house in conneticut with an orchid garden and bee hives."

The New Dealio

Not much I can say about The New Deal show, is there? Here's some notes I made on my palm.

(yeah, I made notes during their set. I have mad Graffiti™ skillz, 'prezent yaw)

• "Spinja Girl" gettin' her dance on for the opening DJ. Her moves were totally hyped out
• The DJ was playing a really good Trance/Jazz House set until he threw down something that sounded like beat-up Huey Lewis and the News. People totally responded well to it. I think it's about time that big band/rock sound came back (to the future?).
• The Wabi visuals were totally neat. All mixed live with some neat "car moving through city" and "carnival" real world footage. Also stuff from old Vectrex games:
  • Defender
  • Tempest
  • Space War
  • "Spikey"
• The drummer did some beat boxing on the mic while still doing cymbal and kicks. Nice work!
• The parachute was there hanging from the ceiling as usual. Very cool.
• Show in Muskoka in August

What a great show. Next time I hope Greg (plaidninja) isn't out of town, he woulda loved it. And that boy know to dy-ance! Bought a cool tND shirt but I lost my flyer I wanted to put on my bulletin board. I can probably pick one up at The Pit Record on the way back home.
