Check out the tracks, including my new fave "She Said" and her addicting cover of Hot Chip's "Ready for the Floor," or better yet, buy tickets to see Lissy Trullie at the Mercury Lounge on February 11.
In "My Life" news, I went to The Scene's record release party in the Bronx on Saturday night. It was my first venture deep into the mysterious 4th boro, and I have to say I got more than I bargained for: a headbandtastic evening complete with kegs, "Last Night" and "Paper Planes" renditions, and hot gangsta pot smokin (younger) boys! Here's a shot of Lox and Beef at their finest (as always, duh!)
And I'm reading Roberto Bolano's 2666... I really believe he's the best writer I've ever read (sorry, JD.) But I think the best thing about Bolano's work is that he gives ultimate authority to language... and poetry, specifically. I could get into a crazy rant right now but I'm only 100 pages into the epic, so I better wait.
Also, if you watched GG tonight (Oh, Chuck, you fool!!!), did you catch the Paul Rudd allusion??? Cher's step brother in Clueless? Yeah, that's P-Funk. That's what I'm talkin about, baby! WIKI WIKI.
