Ironic Twist
seeking irony, because sarcasm clashes with my outfit
Friday, December 15, 2006 :::
On Wednesday, I celebrated St. Lucia Day with The Cricklewood Massive, playing some songs and wearing a crown of (battery-operated) candles for a bit. My iPod Jukebox set:
The Hard Tomorrows - "Teenage Kicks" (download here) Maximo Park - "Isolation" Brett Anderson (The Donnas) - "California Sun" (from Brats On The Beat) Franz Ferdinand - "Well That Was Easy" Mika - "Relax" (MP3)
If I'd stayed a bit later, I would have broken out the Christmas set I had prepared:
The Raveonettes - "The Christmas Song" Le Sport, Montt Mardié & Mr. Suitcase - "Last Christmas" (download here) Middle Distance Runner - "XMas Party" (MP3) The Ramones - "Merry Christmas (I Don't Want To Fight Tonight)"
Tonight: a Hanukkah party at MFG and BV's, then off to the Black Cat for the New Order vs. Duran Duran dance party to celebrate David's birthday. Happy birthday, David!
And oh yeah, I forgot about Sunday: Aberdeen City opening for Rasputina at the 9:30 Club. I've never been to a seated show at the 9:30 Club before. I understand sitting for a band with cellos, but how does one rock out to Aberdeen City while sitting down?
01/05: Taint and Bliss present INFAMY, 9:30 Club
01/10: Emily Haines & The Soft Skeleton, 9:30 Club
01/19: Benjy Ferree, Meredith Bragg and the Terminals, Greenland, Black Cat 01/24: Hej Hej, Cafe Saint-Ex
