Fideo


If I wasn't locked in my house studying I would totally be going to this show at the infamous Jiggers. I haven't been there in years in any event, any show with pachanga punkers Pinata Protest is a sure bet with me. The ultra-heavy earth-first sludge rockers Ecocide is also tops. The other bands I haven't heard of. Terror Management Theory sounds political, listening to their stuff the vocals sounds pretty badass. New Narcotic Youth, from their myspace sound pretty ferocious like old school california skate punk. It seems like a can't miss show.

Fidel Castro resigned from his post in Cuba and has his brother taking over. Its inevitable this experiment in Communism looks like it is going to fall eventually. What a bummer. Like all good beautiful ideas it always seem that when faced with the practicality of the world and capital it seems that things get waylaid a litte. I have always wanted to travel to Cuba, I intend to sometime soon, I just really wish that Fidel Castro had a cloning machine, if anything to get the goat of all those annoying Cubanos in Little Havana. They have been selling shirts of ol' Fidel dead. I don't know it just seems in bad taste. But I am not Cuban nor have I experienced the Cuban revolution, but something about about all those landowners and little imperialists fuming in their old age, kind of warms my heart you know?
