UP IN HERE

I'm DJing at Rothko on Saturday night at around 1am-ish. Please come. It'll be fun and there will be dancing and good times had by all!

Here's all the important info:

This Saturday June 5
Another Saturday and another rocking party with the following bands/djs:
MyTvs: Record Release Party!!! MyTvs sound as if James Chance and The Contortions were still in their 20's and incorporated more catchy pop hooks into their songs.


Mixel Pixel: Mixel Pixel has found a way of integrating old Atari/Nintendo sounds with punk, electro, experimental, and rock elements that resemble in spirit Johnny Thunders and Suicide to make some fun tunes that will get the crowd partying. For fans of The Unicorns, Ween, Suicide, The Flaming Lips, and peeps with a punk spirit.


PJ Harvey: "Uh Huh Her" record release/listening party with giveaways. This is PJ Harvey's seventh album to date and it's as brilliant as ever. On this release she is bringing back some of her more raw and punk energy that she displayed on past great albums like "Dry".


Djs: Oil(Kanine Records) and Scott(OtherMusic) and guest Dj Ultragrrrl(Spin Mag) playing a mix btw. Brit/Indie/PostPunk/Nu-wave/Remix dance music.

    i gotta be honest, i'm pretty underwhelmed by the new PJ Harvey. it's not even as good as Stories From The City imo, which was def not her best effort either.

    it's not terrible or anything, just a bit snoozy, and only a few (read 2 or 3) standout tracks.

    I will try and make it but I am SEVERELY broke and can't be tempted by bartenders.

    I saw it again this evening
    Black sail in a pale yellow sky
    And just as before in a moment,
    It was gone where the grey gulls fly

    If it happens again I shall worry
    That only a strange ship could fly
    And my sanity scans the horizon
    In the light of the darkening sky

    That night as I walked in my slumber
    I waded into the sea strand
    And I swam with the moon and her lover
    Until I lost sight of the land

    I swam till the night became morning
    Black sail in a reddening sky
    Found myself on the deck of a rolling ship
    So far where no grey gulls fly

    All around me was silence
    As if mocking my frail human hopes
    And a question mark hung in the canvas
    For the wind that had died in the ropes

    I may have slept for an hour
    I may have slept for a day
    For I woke in a bed of white linen
    And the sky was the color of clay

    At first just a rustle of canvas
    And the gentlest breath on my face
    But a galloping line of white horses
    Said that soon we were in for a race

    The gentle sigh turned to a howling
    And the grey sky she angered to black
    And my anxious eyes searched the horizon
    With the gathering sea at my back

    Did I see the shade of a sailor
    On the bridge through the wheelhouse pane
    Held fast to the wheel of the rocking ship
    As I squinted my eyes in the rain

    For the ship had turned into the wind
    Against the storm to brace
    And underneath the sailor's hat
    I saw my father's face

    If a prayer today is spoken
    Please offer it for me
    When the bridge to heaven is broken
    And you're lost on the wild, wild sea
    Lost on the wild, wild sea...
