                    [Summary] => 

We never thought we’d see the day when compact discs, the once commonplace CD, would be endangered species, a mere instrument of nostalgia and its local variants, sentimientos de patatas and himutok de muscovado, but alas, here we are listening to a couple of Sleepyheads CDs, the post grunge, pre-visual arts band with time and Lani Maestro on their side.

Lou Reed, godfather of weird [Summary] =>

It’s strange to suddenly live in a world where Lou Reed is dead. Ever since forming the highly influential band The Velvet Underground in the mid-‘60s, Reed never really stopped making music or outrageous sound bites.

I am an absolute vintage T-shirt junkie. Anything from a band print to a cool logo looks good to me. I love anything with a bit of art and pop culture blended together. Finding T-shirts like that here can be difficult sometimes. And when I get the design I want, it’s a hundred times too big for me. I never thought it was indie music that would lead to my discovery of cool T-shirts.

It was the third night of the wake of his dead daughter, and we were supposed to drop by and condole with him, but at the last minute plans fell through. Instead, we headed straight home, armed with an Emperador lapad, and a copy of Lou Reed’s The Blue Mask. The blue Parker must have fallen in between swigs of the cheap brandy; we did not discover it was missing until the next day.
