I moved to Seattle very briefly after living in NYC (East Village) and the place drove me insane....it's like it's covered in plastic wrap and the whole city is on Prozac. It is so far from the rest of civilization, you feel completely isolated, the weather is extra conducive to bottomless pits of depression, and people juat are not that cool at all. It took me FOREVER just to meet a few actually cool people, I think being so cut off people there have no idae how to act, so they just kind of do their best at6 imitating what they think is normal, but it comes of as some surreal kind of theatrics....I left really quickly.....never been more depressed in my life. Oh and the nightlife is a joke, what nightlife? That place has no funk....to damn white. I feel ya’, bro.

I'm almost never on tribe anymore. But Chelsea accosts me when I'm out for my smoke break. And every now and then I'll run into one of her guests. I was high for a week when Snoop was on her show.

I've been meaning to say hi over at Tribe but haven't been on there too much. I am jealous that you work in the same building as she does. Running into her sounds like fun. Hey Jimmy.

Her show tapes in the same building where I work, and bumping into her now and again she's hilarious. Especially when she's running around eating for a box of pizza. :) Aw, what a cute picture.

It was only there for one day and then it escaped, and while it was there it was only tied up for 3 hours and was fed and watered by the srtist. http://www.hsus.org/about_us/humane_society_international_hsi/cruelty_issues_around_the_world/starving_dog_as_art_42308.html Just to put this into perspective - according to the HUmane Society’s investigation of these allegtions, it turns out that the dog wasn’t starved to death in the gallery.

Just this month I saw Autolux with Health, Siouxsie with Rasputina and Liars with No Age. I think I wanna go to the Boredoms, Xiu Xiu, The Kills and Ladytron within the next several months. But the TKK are playing again? Wow! Tell me about it. Just this month I saw Autolux with Health, Siouxsie with Rasputina and Liars with No Age.

Thanks to Isolationist for the correction. To correct my comment, I didn’t mean “Otono”, I meant “Nothing Left” parts 1 and 2. Thanks to Isolationist for the correction.

I personally don't think those "scenester numbnuts" will get it even after it's explained to them 15 million times.

In any case, I would have to agree that too much love was heaped atop anything Goldfrapp did post-Felt Mountain. In a perfect world, people would appreciate the debut for the amazing effort it is. As an aside, my interest in Goldfrapp began when I heard her doing guest vocals on Orbital records around ten years ago or so, and I find it amusing that all of the "fans" bemoaning her not so hasty exit from the garishly overworked glam/electronic angle probably didn't know how far back and in what creative soil her roots really are. I think after listening to "Otono", perhaps some of those scenester numbskulls might see the error of their self-righteous blathering. Or not. The Sonic Youth Syndrome always gives me a chuckle.
