I FORGOT TWO B'S

Barbecue and Booyah!!

WERE PLAYING!

Even though it takes place at Brooklyn Bretta, it's not a scooter rally. It's a music festival. A music festival with a beer garden set up and a place to play bocce ball.

Here's what you need to know - Brooklyn Bretta, bands, beer, bocce ball, Breakup Breakdown!

CAN WE PUT AN END TO THIS INSANITY? VOL. III

I am friend to the sophistocated jumpsuit. Really, I like them. Back in the 1980's I would flip through the JC Penney catalog with Midge and look at them longingly, hoping one day to be sophistocated enough to wear one to a rooftop cocktail party in New York City where the man of my dreams would take one look at my jumpsuit and fall madly in love and propose on the spot. Ok, so, I thought about it a lot. I have different dreams now but, regardless of all this, Eva Longoria - you can't be serious! Your wrinkles are KILLING ME.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

You know what is insane? No? Well, I'll tell you! Me and this blog have the very same birthday! That's right! The first post to this blog coincided directly with my 25th birthday! So, now, one year later, I am a ripe 26 and the blog is 1. I have baked a cake so that we can all have a good laugh and take a picture of the blog sitting in its high chair with frosting all over its face.



Alright, I'm 32. Whatever.

AWESOME GRAFITTI

This is on Wythe Avenue in Williamsburg, not far from our practice space.





I always knew that Trix bunny guy was 100% gangsta.

PETE'S SHOW

Here are a couple pics from the Boy Genius CD release party at Pete's.

SUMMER ENDS

As I was trying not to take my time in the locker room at the gym, I had a thought. Summer's ending. That bittersweet thought reminded me of the song "The Summer Ends" by American Football. In my search to find some live footage of that song on Youtube I came across this video of Mike Kinsella (American Football, Owen, Joan of Arc, Cap'n Jazz) covering Wilco. So, why not kill two birds with one stone and watch this video of a great covering a great:

GODDAMN IT

I still haven't tried Miller Chill. I'm disappointed in myself.

BALLYHOO!!!

According to Jason Genius, Breakup Breakdown's acoustic set is "much ballyhooed". We've never been so flattered.

We are playing the aforementioned acoustic set at Pete's Candy Store on Saturday night! We're on first (eight o'clock), followed by Boy Genius, followed by Private Eleanor (Baltimore). The show is free plus Boy Genius will be giving away free cd's because it is their CD release party! I was lucky enough to receive an advance copy because I sat in on keys on a couple tunes so I can tell you first hand that it is a kick ass recording.

Let's see... what else can I tempt you with... Currently on the special cocktails list at Pete's is a drink called the Jamaican Firefly which is made of Gosling's dark rum, fresh lime juice, simple syrup and ginger beer. I know a certain someone who would love that drink. You know who you are. I won't name any names because that would be indiscrete. Jamie Mack. There. I said it. Shoot.

Here's a cute pic of some Boy Geniuses:
