All right then. How are we feeling today - Classy or Trashy?
I feel: Classy.
I'm feeling a little Trashy 1, Trashy 2.
Make It Louder,
Migwell
For more info go to the Classy Post or the Trashy Post. The Trashy image is by Thomas Allen who's work is currently featured at the Foley Gallery, 547 W 27th Street, 5th floor New York, NY.

I made this film as a rejoinder to all the crazy 911 theories floating around the Internet.
My plan is to fight madness with madness. It's a battle the conspiracy nuts cannot hope to win.
I think then big monkey just might be onto something...
Make It Louder, It's whisper rap...

New Mexico is hoping to keep drunks off the road by lecturing them at the last place they usually stop before getting behind the wheel: the urinal.
It's true! Talking urinal cakes give potential DWIs a last minute warning. I think I'm gonna have to do a version of this idea, these are kinda-sorta half-ass - they could be way more effective as well... Hmmmmm...
If your lucky to be where it's not quite so cold and able to drop your top over the weekend, why not check out theis sweet little mix of some killer old 45's. Amighty fine driving mix for sure y'all.
Actually, it'll be totally perfect for the drive up to the Flag Creek Inn in Fredericksberg from San Antonio this weekend.
Fill'er up and go dig: Diddy On The Decks.
Make it Louder!

Anytime is a good time for a Coffee Break! This one is from the Monroe Calculator Company promo lp.
Now, why not go grab the whole ding dang thing over at: Our Lady of Perpetual Obsolescence Vinyl Rescue Mission and Orphanage.
Make it louder,

Thanks to Pastor Francis McPurvis, Director, and his safe haven for forgotten and downtrodden record albums.
For Mr. Patrick Gill
Ok, we've got a few left field goodies courtesy of WFMU for you this week, all of them are perfectly, if not mind-bendingly interesting, depending on your mood, frame of mind, or altered state.
Feel like some cheesy old knee slappin' slightly off-color comedy that's totally not for kids? Well then, you're sure to dig these cocktail induced ramblings: Classy But Sassy
Or perhaps you're in the mood for a good short story? Well, this ain't exactly Selected Shorts but I think you might enjoy a little Acid: The Story Of LSD: Lysergic Acid Diethylamide
Problem: You're going out of town and you don't have an alarm system.
Solution: Put this on loop, press play and enjoy your weekend while this nice old Jewish couple house sits for you: Play It Safe
And hey, wanna buy a guitar? Dig this: Guitar For Sale
And finally, if you're in a dial flipping mode, dig The Reel Night John Lennon Died, a New York Radio Collage from December 8th, 1980, the night Lennon Died.
So, until at least next Thursday, have fun and be nice to each other.
Make It Louder!

Thanks to the amazing folks at WFMU.

Tourfilter is one of those innovative new business ideas that came about because a smart entrepreneur wanted to solve a personal problem. Founder Chris Marstall kept missing gigs by bands he liked, and needed an easy way to track concert listings. When he couldn't find anything user-friendly or complete enough, he built his own service.
The concept is simple: a user sets up a (free) account, picks his/her own city, and then enters all of the bands he or she would like to see in concert. Twice a day, Tourfilter's software crawls through live music venue listings for each city it covers. If it comes across a band people are tracking, it sends them an email, and lets them receive show updates via RSS or iCal.
Entering a list of bands is fast and easy, with the system giving instant recommendations based on other users' lists. Users can also listen to thousands of MP3 and RealAudio tracks by bands with upcoming shows, and browse recent music blog listings, organized by band.
Think of it as a simple concert and band tracking tool that aims to become the Craigslist of live music listings.
I've got mine set up for Austin...
Check It: Tourfilter

Among other things, we're about to enter the world of the very small...
Ladies & Gentleman -The Art Of Listening.
Absolutely and bodaciously wicked funny.
That is if you simply listen, truly focus.
Relax, and allow yourself to escape and ponder it all...
I double dog dare you.
Waxing Poetic.
