Coyotes aren’t just a pest of the west. I’ve seen them critters in downtown Chicago and Milwaukee.

You must be going to San Fran next. Tom’s Wholly Other report says he’s on the bill. I think playing bass.

rosa, I think Jandek is playing with Tom Carter, actually, but I could be totally wrong.

John, after years of making CHUD jokes, I just bought it on DVD to watch with my bad-movie loving friends in New Zealand. Shooting for a double feature with LADY TERMINATOR or HORRORS OF MALFORMED MEN.

Have you guys never tried Dance Dance Revolution?!

When I took Electra to UpChuck E Cheese in Wichita recently, there was a 6 foot 5 dude with a genuine bowl cut dancing away on that thing. He was an employee there. Seems like Chucke E Cheese employees really are some of the most interesting people on the planet. But the food there... the food at that place comes from some secret underground sewage civilization. In fact, I think that underneath ever Chuck E Cheese, is a mega-plex of mole people sleeping in broken children's props being jolted to attention every time the flashing red alarm goes off and they have a food order to put together out things from their necrotic asses.

Yeah, but you can't do DDR to Iron Maiden.

to me those games all seem like really fancy versions of Simon. Nothing really to do with music. Just pattern recognition and repetition. I'm sure they are just as addictive and good time killers.

Have you guys never tried Dance Dance Revolution?! Pads set up on the floor and you’re supposed to imitate the dance moves on screen. The most mechanical dancer always wins and I’d argue that it has nothing whatsoever to do with real dancing… must be the same with drums.

One of my friends set up Rock Band on a screen at the River Oaks recently and I had the same problem with the drum kit. I just played it as if I were actually playing a real drum kit. Turns out I wasn’t doing what it thought I should be doing. So now I suck on real drums and fake ones. Also, everybody told me I was hitting the Rock Band drums too hard, which confused me because that’s how you are supposed to play drums.
