Warriooooors…come out and play-ayyyy. And by ‘Warriors’ I mean ‘Commenters,’ but Commenters would be a ridiculously shitty name for a hardcore street gang, even if they had the coolest jackets and/or get-up on the block.
Seriously, though, we didn’t see a noticeable decline in readership yesterday, but someone must’ve turned down the volume. Where’d everyone go? Is it that hard to read a Vegoose recap and make a snarky comment or relay a funny tale from the grounds? Nobody wanted to take a shot at some easy-as-pie Back Door Slam jokes? Hey, let’s get some chatter out of you Billy Ripken fuckfaces today.
So here’s a post that’s guaranteed to generate no comments whatsoever, a gratuitous romp through the Live Music Archive that will keep your dirty ears busy for a little while. We’ll start out with some drop-dead deep funk from the now 10-year-old Afroskull, move into more jamband territory with the young and talented Heavy Pets, hit up the afrobeat funk tip with the old Antibalas standbys, check in with the Midwest and a talented group called The Maji, and we’ll wrap that gavel up with a little ditty + cover from Scarecrow Collection.

- Talk-a-Tif: Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra — 12/3/03 — Baltimore, MD

Maybe everyone was just counting down the hours till they could go out and buy a copy of the I’m Not There soundtrack – or maybe that was just me.
Here is comment. Its Halloween Eve Eve where is the blog post about Shiavo and late term abortion costumes? Come on I need some ideas as it stands all I can come up with is bringing this t-shirt to life http://www.tshirthell.com/store/product.php?productid=729
Well Well Well. Thanks for the music. I’m not gonna listen to it. Just going to comment. There, I did it.
That’s hysterical, HB…make that happen. No advice, just a directive — make that happen!
I agree with Ace. That shirt is hilarious.
Ha! I posted the 2006-03-25 50 Ways To Leave Your Lover many moons ago. Guess you got that live SCC Vibes CD too, huh?
the heavy pets rule the world. i have seen them a few times in the North East and am for sure catching them at Langerado.
