I finally got around to reading this Mos Def article (cause i'm sooo busy... yeaah right) and it turned out to be a good read. Mos schooled me on the original black rock band...Death (they were harder than the Sex Pistols and Bad Brains before those bands even existed) They dropped one EP and then peaced.. never getting any attention until more recently (I read about them in Exclaim! magazine.. They are blowing up [now] in California and one of the sons of the original members has formed a kind-of tribute band to them). Mos is trying to put together a documentary film about them with non other than Dame Dash?? He also discusses his favorite thing...being an artist: “I definitely want to be remembered as vital, unique, great, attractive—all of that shit—but it was more important to just be able to have this be the work I do effectively enough to call myself a professional. I’m an artist, man; I put that shit on my W-2.” ...I'm guessing W-2 is the taxes or some shit in the U.S. of A. Aaaaannyways I'm pissed off the Montreal Jazz Fest canclled his performance that was going down TONIGHT! ..it was going to be my first time seeing him. Ahh well .. here is a song by Death from their EP ...For The Whole World To See

I leave you with a quote that is written on a magnet on Mos Def's fridge... "Peace is not about the absence of trouble; peace is about being able to keep stillness within your heart no matter what’s going on."

Dr. Dog live @ The Parish

The Parish... where's that? Austin. where's that? Texas. what's in front? Benzzz. what else? Lexuss.

sooo I've been in Freddie's car riding around and this band keeps coming on and I've turned to him and been like.. who is this?? ..and he always says Dr. Dog (not to get confused with the canadian band Dog Day) I've been meaning to steal their music for a while now and still haven't gotten around to it... but today I stumbled upon a concert they did at The Parish and some wonderful person has made the whole thing available on the internets!

so here is it in all its glory..

Patrick Watson Live @ MTL Jazz Fest

a humble dude who admitted that this was his largest show to date... and it was large!! a whole shit load of people showed up to watch the pop-folk artist shine under a beautiful (non rainy!!) Montreal night

you can watch the entire concert here (bastards won't let me embed)

.. yo i had some laaame ass people in front of me at the concert. They were getting all heated because they had set up there pretty ass chairs at like 5 when the concert only started at 9. Then when all the people showed up and the place started to fill up, everyone obviously started standing and squishing in front of them... Well when I (who was dolo for the evening since the crowd scared my friends) rolled up, the women had had enough and she totally bodied me. I tried to push past her but she turned around and was not having any of it. Then her and the other dude beside her kept going on and on about how people have no respect.. thats when I had to interject and tell them both that they were being whiny bitches and that this was a fucking concert and people squish and try to get ahead...(don't be mad cause my man Patrick is too popular for your asses) thats what happens too bad. annnnyways they all got real annoyed when I sparked my toge up behind them!! [ll] ennnn ca sent le pot ... ben oui crissss c'est moiiii sti
