I didn’t know what a street boner was.  I figured it out.  Vince Dermody took this picture about a year ago at Rodan at the Gutter Butter/Freegums after party.  Somehow it got in Gavin McInnes’ hands and was posted to the site.  I also don’t really get it.  Can someone explain?

I made me a movie of me and Thorne morphing.  He turned it into a gif.  It’s on pizzadog.org.

I worked with Thorne Brandt to create music for the first piece in the program “Animated GIF of the Day Compilation, Pizza Dog”.  It is literally my first song I ever made in Ableton.  And pretty much the second song I ever made by myself.  I am so proud.

Help kick off our newest monthly dance party tonight with two of Chicago’s most infamous party starters, CLIQUE TALK and BFF. As always, Cease To Resist is hosted by DJs Dr. Drase and Rev. Michael Flavor of Hump Day Dance Party.

CLIQUE TALK:::
“Imagine a more demonic version of Liars without all the chanting, or like, a more industrial version of Wire. Maybe I’m being delusional, but some of these melodies sound like Eurythmics/80s synth-pop group lines that have been seriously dubbed and warped. Maybe that’s a good way to put Clique Talk’s style, though … it’s as though they’ve collected all the leftover fragments of the post-punk and early New Wave stuff as well as DFA disco-twinged stuff, blended them all together, and heated the concoction up, making it sludgier, thicker, and completely new.” – www.bibabidi.net/

BFF:::

If you wanna know the truth, BFF is the Punk answer to Juke, just as the original Punk was the answer to Disco.

BFF is made up of super-amazing artist POOPER (aka Elisa Harkins) and Mahjongg’s HUNTER HUSAR.
They add a visual element to the music which is mostly influenced by the likes of Paper Rad, Friends With You, and Japanese music giant, Cornelius.

Put these up on the soon-to-be Jimmy John’s across from where I live.

I didn’t have a chance to post this before the show.  My domain name was down, but now we are back up!  Last night was so f*cking awesome!  I didn’t even feel crappy after sleeping for only 4 hours last night and dragging my ham into motorola today.  The gem encrusted sweaters were out in full force.  We got sweaty.  We shook it to the ground.  We kissed Jillian goodbye.  Goodbye Outdanced!  I’ll miss you!

I put these across from Walgreens and used bolts that the kid at Ace swore were permanent.  Unfortunately that kid was wrong.
