AJW Art Joke Club
The Print Center in Philly hosted the release party for Andrew Jeffrey Wright's, hopefully first of many, Art Jokes DVD. AJW also performed some of his new material. It was hilarious! I always forget that cameras do video too, but the pictures are entertaining anyway. AJW also has and exhibit of prints and photos at the Print Center 'till August, I think.

APW's Ipod
Propagandi is one of my all time favorite punk bands. Their first three albums are incredible. They're fast, political and funny. That's not always easy to do. The newer stuff if more metal or maybe not metal but technical and I don't know something. This album is amazing.

Walk Like a Man
Here is a review a 13 year old boy did about a Walkman. He had never seen one before and has only used Ipods. Here are a few highlights:
It took me three days to figure out that there was another side to the tape. That was not the only naive mistake that I made; I mistook the metal/normal switch on the Walkman for a genre-specific equaliser, but later I discovered that it was in fact used to switch between two different types of cassette.
Another notable feature that the iPod has and the Walkman doesn't is "shuffle", where the player selects random tracks to play. Its a function that, on the face of it, the Walkman lacks. But I managed to create an impromptu shuffle feature simply by holding down "rewind" and releasing it randomly - effective, if a little laboured.
I told my dad about my clever idea. His words of warning brought home the difference between the portable music players of today, which don't have moving parts, and the mechanical playback of old. In his words, "Walkmans eat tapes". So my clumsy clicking could have ended up ruining my favourite tape, leaving me music-less for the rest of the day

I'm Sorry I Fucked Your Girlfriend
I read this guy's zines. He writes Burn Collector, Natural Disasters, and I forget what it's called but he also did a book of comics. I like his stuff a lot. This is a reading he did titled "I'm Sorry I Fucked Your Girlfriend."
NSFW (Just because he says "fuck" a lot.)
PS I don't know why the player is so fucking big.
