Now do you/ recognize when the world wont stop for you/ Or when your days dont care what you got to do/ Or when the weights too tough to lift up/

What do you do?/ They don't choose for you/Don't let em choose/

P.O.S.' lyrics above from one of my favorite tracks, "Goodbye", sum up my feelings pretty perfectly these days. Sadly, this is was my last Tuesday morning radio show for now, unless some miracle occurs today. I am going to see about getting another time slot on KSCU, so stay tuned for that and keep checking the KSCU DJ schedule @ www.kscu.org.

Last week I caught Deastro live at Bottom of the Hill. I dunno, I think I am a big fan of the recorded albums, but not so much the live show. A little hippy-preachy, and I got water sprayed on me--maybe I'm just getting old. :) The F U of the week goes out to Frenchies Phoenix for canceling their show, and ruining my Saturday night plans. Rarr. I look forward to catching them when they come back though in September.

This week, I am seeing Death Cab for Cutie w/ the symphony at the Hollywood Bowl. It's kind of a Birthday gift to myself. OK, playlist is below.

Will the FCC visit me today? Magic eightball says: Not likely.

Saw the Handsome Furs last night, they were AWESOME! One of the best shows I have seen so far this year. Super cute adorable couple, but not in a mushy Mates of State way (though I think they are adorable too). Super rocking, super loud, it was like dance-punk aerobics. See them if you get the chance. Also, went to BFD this past weekend... was surprisingly better than I thought it would be. DJ Mike Relm, Zion I, Limousines, Alk3, Metric are my top highlights. Crystal Castles and YYYs were okay. I think I needed to be closer to enjoy Crystal Castles, and YYYs set list was weird, but thought they were decent.

On with the show... (have you guys checked out the new Lee Fields album yet? FYI: its AMAZING!)

James Yuill was AWESOME last week, m83 and Passion Pit not soo much (though didn't hate p-peezy as much as SOME people). The guys vocals really didn't hold up though, sadly. This week is Flying Lotus (in SJ!), BFD + Juan Maclean/the Field (yes, I'm THAT crazy). Lots of other stuff as well....... busy busy.
