I nearly hyperventilated when I discovered that Miss Kittin and The Hacker are touring the U.S. and Canada this September, via their American booking agency, The Windish Agency. WOW! This is very exciting. After a check of the official websites and MySpace pages of both Miss Kittin and The Hacker, I didn’t see any confirmation [...]
So I leave for New York City in exactly one week from tonight and my allergies are fraking kicking my ass BIGTIME. It’s exactly like what happened a couple of days into my New York trip last year after I went to visit Ground Zero. Hopefully I will clear up in time for this year’s [...]
5 years was well worth the wait to see Ellen Allien spin at Chop Suey this past Thursday. She was great and she looked gorgeous! I told my co-worker Friday morning that I was convinced that Ellen is the Jennifer Aniston of Berlin electronica. She totally resembled a German Jennifer, dressed in a sleeveless halter [...]
The Noise is officially declaring May 1 Ellen Allien Day in celebration of her appearance tonight here in Seattle at Chop Suey.
I’ve been hooked on her music ever since the first time I heard Stadtkind. I even started a tribe on Tribe devoted to her and Miss Kittin. I have waited at least 5 years [...]
I recently came up with the idea to construct, recollect, reconstruct, and create a live show archive for my blog. Basically, I wanted to try and come up with a master list of every single (God willing) concert, instore appearance, comedy show, and festival show I’ve ever seen in my entire life. At one point in [...]
…and I don’t mean the band.

Elsewhere, I’ve read that MBV (according to their booking agent) is planning to play in 6 to 8 U.S. cities in September. I hope that they at least perform [...]
I am starting to get blown away by the number of live shows that are occurring in the upcoming months. The list just keeps growing and I’m not sure that I can keep up with all of them. Anyway, here’s what is coming up for me in the way of live shows (all in Seattle, [...]
Where, oh where, has my ‘lil TG DVD Box Set gone?
I’ve been anticipating Throbbing Gristle’s video archive box set for almost 2 years and now it’s available. I ordered it before Christmas but after the initial preorder period happened. My order was dispatched on December 17, but I haven’t seen it come in yet. Ideally, [...]
2007 is winding down to a close (thank FUCKING God.) I’ve had enough of 2007. 2008 may very well be the year that saves me! My 35th birthday is approaching very quicky. I can’t wait. I have big (I use this word with cautious optimism) plans for the new year. There’s many things in my [...]

Quite honestly, I haven’t had much to say over the last few weeks because work has been making me rather fatigued at the moment. But, relief is coming in the form of the eagerly anticipated and long overdue trip to New York City in slightly over a week. I am sincerely hoping that the trip yields [...]
