Remember when you were growing up, attending grade school, watching ABC's TGIF line-up (Hangin' With Mr. Cooper/Boy Meets World combo was TV gold), and then writing on big, thick olive-colored paper at your desk on Monday mornings, describing your weekend adventures? ...Just me? Here's the NMTM version of what happened in the world of rock 'n' roll this weekend:Over the weekend, Jared from Black Lips got in a scuffle with Nathan from Wavves in a New York City bar. Or so one side says. Afterwards, they both released semi-legitimate press releases about the incident, chock full of indie rock hatred and F-bombs. What a bunch of bad kids. More here. "I had fun. It was fun."
Passion Pit & Phoenix played two shows in Central Park. Jim’s brother attended the Saturday show. Oh man, I’m just thinking - they all could’ve gone and joined the Black Lips/Wavves brawl once the show was over. I guess they realized their age. More here. “I had fun. It was fun.”
Morrissey’s album cover for Swords was released. What’s he running from? A US tour date was announced, too, but all the shows are on the West Coast. Lame. “It was fun. I had fun.”
And finally, we updated this very blog with a post about our 25th show. Check it out! (You don't need a link, it's underneath this post.)
Black Lips - "Bad Kids"
And now, recess…
