Rush....

Well I am Canadian and all so of course I've seen them live no less than 
5 times..... I've seen Trans Am and Badmarsh/Shri big up Rush. Geddy Lee 
big up'ed us (Ninja Tune) in the last issue of Pop Smear...that was 
pretty cool. ZZ Top came by our office once...that was weird. I went and 
saw Slayer awhile ago and ran into a lot of people I knew trying to hide 
the fact they were there...that was funny. 

Oh ya...

buy the 2 6LP Fela Kuti boxsets...they're wicked and full of impossible 
to find records.

buy the 3 Mutantes CDs that were just reissued. Brazilian psych-pop and 
some bad ass stage outfits. We've been listening to them religiously 
everyday at the office. 


I'm rambling

Bye
