Also did I push the C0ugar record on you already? I really love it. The 0ptimistic is opening for them at the end of January, and I think they're going back to the Bottle too.

Good to know, Dan. Actually, I have zero -- but it seemed like something you would like! (My brother used to have a copy of Spine and Sensory.)

I still have only heard Cougar on MySpace, but I remember enjoying it.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I've got that one and their next one. I saw them tour for that record and play at MichFest in 1999 or so. A whole day of hardcore bands with them in the middle and the stage all lit up blue. It was great.

A coworker lent me a DMST record last year and it was kind of jam-bandy and loose, with two really boring drummers. I don't remember what record it was though.

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I have two. The one I like best is & Yet & Yet.

JorCoh: Have you heard Mice Parade?

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:19 (seventeen years ago) link

I haven't heard most of those other bands though, just Tortoise and a couple of tracks from Directions in Music and Durrty Three.

xpost, nope, or them

Lately I have been big loving Explosions in the Sky, Mercury Program, the new Six Parts Seven record, and the Appleseed Cast double album while at work.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:24 (seventeen years ago) link

Here's a good article on Mice Parade. I only have Mokoondi, an album that's based around the cheng (Chinese harp).

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:25 (seventeen years ago) link

I would like copies of all mixes, please. But you can save yourself a CD by just YSIing since I'll just rip the tracks and put the CD in a drawer somewhere anyway.

I like & Yet & Yet.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:29 (seventeen years ago) link

A post-rock mix would be super nice because I could listen whilst studying.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:30 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, Dan asked me yesterday to recommend him some post-rock so he could listen at work without being too distracted.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:33 (seventeen years ago) link

Words are annoying me lately.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:33 (seventeen years ago) link

SACRAMENTO = AROMA SCENT

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:35 (seventeen years ago) link

Mice Parade sounds like something I might like.

Winter Hymn Country Hymn was the DMST record I heard.

I can't listen to music while working/reading anymore, it's all too distracting.

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh yeah, Winter Hymn is just okay.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:37 (seventeen years ago) link

I have been enjoying some Derek Bailey and Steffan Basho-Jurgen (sp?) for relaxin' times/working/writing. No words, no distracting tempo, just vaguely melodic geetarin'. But not DISTRACTINGLY melodic. I got to the point where I found Discreet Music distractingly melodic. After that it was pure silence for a while.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:40 (seventeen years ago) link

People on ILM always talk about Derek Bailey. I assumed he was free jazz...?

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:45 (seventeen years ago) link

free euro-prov

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, kinda, but he just plays guitar. The stuff that I have is definitely not squawky -- more noodly.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:47 (seventeen years ago) link

Ew.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:50 (seventeen years ago) link

The Arbiter of Taste has spoken.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:51 (seventeen years ago) link

When I'm really really really into the studies I like The Disintegration Loops. Soooooothing.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:52 (seventeen years ago) link

The Arbiter of Taste has spoken.

Notice how I'm keeping it brief today.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:53 (seventeen years ago) link

xp I'd like to hear that.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:53 (seventeen years ago) link

It's not noodly like STEVE VAI or whatever -- just, well, nevermind. Maybe noodly isn't the right word. May you all be soothed. I'm outta here.

― Armando Grouse (Armando ), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I've wanted to hear the Disintegration Loops for a while now, too.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 21:55 (seventeen years ago) link

"Meditative" is probably the word I want.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:02 (seventeen years ago) link

One of my coworkers just asked if I'd be passing by any mailboxes after work to mail her personal bill. I just stared at her. I mean, sure, I'll be riding around in the car to go to the grocery store, but how is it any easier for me to find a mailbox for her mail? Riddle me that, batman.

I'm pumped for grocery shopping. FOOD!

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:05 (seventeen years ago) link

Btw, if anyone's bored tonight, CANOOOOSTA* is playing The Note at approx. 9:30 PM.

*what we're called by this gentleman: http://images.google.com/images?q=tbn:AEIHxTvvogGdaM:http://www.chicagoundergroundcomedy.com/images/comics/rb_md.jpg

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:06 (seventeen years ago) link

I kind of doubt I'll be there, but I'm really curious to hear how it goes. We had a show at the Note fall through (or did we turn it down? hmm... no, the other band cancelled their tour) but I've noticed lots of bigger (hey! 'Nasta!) bands playing there lately.

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:08 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, Br1an Peters0n started booking there.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Is he mpsh0wz?

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:13 (seventeen years ago) link

Ha. I just got a myspace event for another show at the note this week.

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:15 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost Yes.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:17 (seventeen years ago) link

I only say I doubt it because it's a school night (haha) and Nick has been feeling sick and sleepy all day, but Mmaaaaayyybbbeee. Also, I like B0und Stems alot. I hadn't heard of the middle band. I just don't want to get your hopes up because I am often crushed when people say they're coming to my shows and then don't, you know?

― Calico (calico), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:24 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm sorry, Sarah. I have done that to you a lot.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:25 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost Yes. I was just bringing it up to fulfill my promo obligations, so do what you need to do. :)

WHOA. Alert for realz:

Northbound Loop Red Line Service Interrupted -- Update 4:24 p.m.
Due to defective rail equipment at the Jackson Red Line subway station, northbound Red Line trains are being rerouted onto the elevated structure between the Roosevelt and Fullerton stations. Northbound Red Line trains will make station stops as follows:

Roosevelt (elevated/Green, Orange lines);

All stations along Wabash and Lake; and

Merchandise Mart (Brown Line), then trains will run express to Fullerton (Red/Brown lines) to resume regular northbound routing to Howard (Red/Purple/Yellow lines).

Customers are encouraged to use alternate service in the area. Please allow extra travel time.

Southbound Red Line service is not affected.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:29 (seventeen years ago) link

Um, go Blue?

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:32 (seventeen years ago) link

That sucks, ya'll. Less for me because I'll be at the library until 9 pm or so and can just take a bus without worrying about traffic or whatever but still. What a flipping mess.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:34 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm taking the Blue Line to Damen. Haven't decided yet whether I'm going to dine at Earwax or Sultan's for din-din.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:36 (seventeen years ago) link

Really, come to think of it, the Blue line is the only train that's NOT going to be affected. This is going to be a cluster fuck!

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah aside from maybe some extra people in Clark/Lake... the Jackson St. transfer will be a bitch, too.

― danno martinez (danno martinez), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:53 (seventeen years ago) link

This sucks a big one.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:58 (seventeen years ago) link

I wish I didn't have to study. I would advocate a spontaneous Thirsty Tuesday to kill time while the CTA sorts this shit out.

― Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 22:59 (seventeen years ago) link

I think I'll trot up to Mich Ave and jump on one of the express busses that stops at the Berwyn station. I think if I'm not mistaken that I can get on the 144, 146, or 147.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 23:09 (seventeen years ago) link

Hi guys!

I'm coming to Chicago between XMAS and New Year's.

― Jon Williams (ex machina), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 23:16 (seventeen years ago) link

Alright! I have the whole week off. We'll spend every minute together, I'm sure.

― whoop de doodle (kenan), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 23:20 (seventeen years ago) link

I'll be in town Dec. 22 - 24

― JordanC (JordanC), Tuesday, 28 November 2006 23:26 (seventeen years ago) link

WELL Jeff and I will be out of town from 12/22 - 12/26. Imagine that.

Jon Williams, I'll hang out with you.
