NY Monsoon - Kualas

posted by on June 10 at 3:09 AM

Played Galapagos in Brooklyn.

It hasn’t stopped raining the entire tour. The load outs are wet, we are wet, the equipment is wet, and our socks are wet, but the music and the pizza are dry. If I were on Noah’s Ark, I would get the kuala bears, find and a corner with some nice dry hay, and sleep. And when we woke, we would have a pillow fight, and eat Count Chocula.

City to city and Dave’s i-pod pours a goldmine -
Television, D’Angelo, The Constantines, Cobra High, Nightmares on Wax, Judas Priest, and Arcade Fire.

Someone outside the club asked me what our music sounded like. I was so wet and frazzled, I told him, “Kind of like Rush, kind of techno, kind of pyro muppet mexi-jazz.”

He said, “What’s mexi-jazz?”

I said, “Like mexi-fries.” He was in a band as well. I asked him what they sounded like.

He said, “We sound like Rush too.”

Trent - out.

Check out the lightning. Yeah, really cool shot. I'm trying to picture in my head the "Rush, kind of techno, kind of pyro muppet mexi-jazz". You guys look absolutely sopping.

I think I might find the seals. I think they would provide warmth and good cereal. Rock the free world. Mexi-Rush will be the next musical thing.

Looks like you all took Seattle weather with you. Mexi-Rush pryo puppet jazz sounds mindboggling. Thanks for the Nightmares on Wax link, I've never heard them before. They are great!
