Re: Porno for Pyros Social Media Update: 06.05.2023

Where are you seeing this? At the end of the video Pete posted - they list the dates and there are a handful of shows that weren't announced as part of the original announcement. I didn't do a full roll call, but saw at least four additional shows - Fort Lauderdale (10 November), Orlando, (11/11) a...

Re: Is 'Absurd' a 'Hypersonic' rip-off?

I don’t hear the similarities per se, but your question and this song (and hypersonic) speaks to the limits of rock when artists aren’t at their creative best.

World Goth Day, KEXP, and John Robb

Apparently last Monday was World Goth Day. KEXP in Seattle played related music all day long, and it was really well done. On the 4:00 slot, the DJ had John Robb, musician and journalist, on the show. He's just published a 500+ page book on the culture through a university press in Manchester (I thi...

Porno for Pyros Social Media Update: 06.05.2023

I think it's Pete who runs the Facebook page, but as of three hours ago, Porno for Pyros posted the date June 5, 2023--tried to get clever and embed the image, but I've always struggled doing that on this board.

Anyway. Something to look forward to, and I hope it's the release of a new song.

Re: Perry Mason on HBO

Love this show. Season 2 is superb. And I love my fellow Welshman in the titular role. Have always enjoyed noir, and they get it right in this. I think the music direction is also incredible and we have a long time Spike Lee collaborator to thank for that. WIsh there was more television like this.

Strange. I've been seeing the World is a Vampire Concert advertised heavily on Facebook and it doesn't include Jane's. It's STP and some other band. Maybe that's for future stateside dates. And what daughter is Perry taking to Amyl and the Sniffers?

The surreal part of our culture right now is how the majority are going along with a vocal minority on issues they don't believe in. I'm pretty sure it's not sustainable... we'll see.

Some of you guys surprise me. We evolve right? We're capable of empathy, and seeing outside of our own experience? I'm pretty sure the notion of "cancel culture" is a tool the right wing uses to not take responsibility for being cunts. I saw Ted Cruz talking about he's not going to be wearing masks ...

Watched the Bee Gees doc last night. Was actually really moved. I was born in '70, so they were the soundtrack to my early life i.e. hearing them played at home or on the radio. Was surprised at how long they'd been around--they had multiple lives--had a Beatles-esque run in the 60s, early 70s, and ...

While, in the grand scheme of things, and as I look over the massive Lolla lineup, a Porno for Pyros reunion maybe isn't that big a deal for many, BUT someone could be doing more to promote it wide scale for the generation that cares---I mean, there was just a RS article about Perry releasing a box ...

I was at/attended the first day of protests in Seattle. Early in the day, I saw a group of white kids--16-19 in age (I guess), throw a water bottle at bike cops as the sped by. They were gleeful (as I might have been at that age), but didn't recognize how they put black and brown people at more risk...

Re: Introduction to my books about Burroughs and Musicians

Yes. Big congrats. I look forward to it also. Do you expect U of Texas Press to have wide distribution and/or a marketing campaign for this, or is it being aimed at a more academic audience?
