All of you out there in internetsville should go to this show ok? Country Dave and I are gonna go because even members of Half Past Two need a dose of Gypsy Punk now and again. I've never seen these folks live before but I here rumors that they go relentlessly ape-shit-bat-fuck crazy onstage. And for those of you saying, "Silly Alex, punk is dead. Don't you watch TV?" To that I say, "A) I do watch TV but apparently not the shit you watch. B) Don't let Country Dave here you say such things. He's liable to burn you at the stake between Fall Out Boy and Katy Perry. And 3) Punk isn't dead, it just went quasi-acoustic. Cross-reference the aforementioned Gogol Bordello, Blackbird RAUM, The Hail Seizures, No Idea Records, Plan it X Records. I believe the kids are calling it the folk punk. 10 HP2 points goes to anyone who can find mention of a band called Love Songs 4 Robots. Their single is a ditty called "Louise." It's about murder.
Ok, I'm supposed to be writing scholarship essays right now.
