I remember where I was when the news broke to me that Jhonn Balance, much beloved singer and co-founder of the experimental music band, Coil, passed away. Approximately three weeks after I returned to Seattle, I was walking down Broadway contemplating what awaited me the following day, which was to be my first day of [...]
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 [...]
From MySpace Blog post:
Mood: Rejuvenated (despite being overwhelmed)
Coming back from vacation is always hard. I left Seattle about two weeks ago with an overwhelming desire to pack it in and go home (so to speak.) Arriving in NYC was exhilarating to start out, but had taken its course by the end of last week. I [...]
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 [...]
As I quickly approach my 35th year of existence, I am reaching a point in my life where I must make a drastic change, a change of huge significance, otherwise I will go completely crazy. I am therefore strongly considering that this year may or may not be my last year in Seattle. I am [...]
Am I suffering from an identity crisis, or is it my blog that’s suffering? Well, for whatever reason, I’ve decided to change the name of this blog to “The Noise.” Ultimately, I realized that I’m over the “Bring D.A. Noise” concept. I’m not quite sure where exactly I want to take The Noise so in [...]
I promise this will be my last gripe about 2007. After this, I will move on. I promise.
I want to address an issue that has been really really REALLY bugging me. I sincerely hope that I’m not the only person that feels this way, but here goes:
HEY SEATTLE GUYS: DROP THE FRACKING ATTITUDE.
I’d like to think [...]
