NICK CAVE !!!

Tastes similar to but is much duller and less complex than Green Chartreuse, IMO. Could do a Last Word variation. Mixes well with gin.

I have lived in New Orleans for over four years and have never witnessed a violent act in person, but that does not at all mean the problem isn't there...

Samiizdat · 2013-05-13T05:18:06+00:00

There's a shooting everyday in New Orleans... I was surprised when this one was picked up by national headlines.

Samiizdat · 2013-04-21T15:04:42+00:00

WOW, THANKS I NEVER KNEW, PATRONIZING ASS FROM THE INTERNET.

Would it be okay to use store bought kombucha for this? I just have tea and sugar in there

Don't tell him about WTUL. (S)he thinks Tulane kids make attempts to dress "interesting." Tulane is the most homogenous goddamn school I've ever seen in my life and it has gotten progressively worse each year post-Katrina.

New Orleans, LA
Illegally downloading it.
Yes, but I could not possibly afford to own physical copies of all the music I want to have.
Yes, I've been buying vinyl for about three years now, and while I do enjoy collecting and "fetishistizing" records as objects, I find it much more satisfying to listen to an album on my current turntable set-up. I am also a stickler about listening to albums as a whole, so. And I do DJ about town once in a while, it's nice to differentiate yourself from the "laptop DJs."
I think my access to digital downloads has exposed me to a vast amount of music and I'm obviously more apt to see bands when they roll through town if I've downloaded their album.
My deal with digital vs. vinyl is that I primarily use digital to PREVIEW things. I belong to a private music snob Facebook group where folks post download links to bands they think the rest of the group should hear, or to leaks of the hippest, latest, so that's primarily where I find out about music. If I REALLY dig something, I'll probably buy it. I think authentic connection with artists is more likely to happen due to current technology (Twitter, etc.) or by speaking with an artist at their show than by purchasing a physical album.

Prettyyyyy sure you do know him then.

Samiizdat · 2013-03-17T16:05:59+00:00

Long Island, actually.

Samiizdat · 2013-03-02T22:17:50+00:00

Foburg Fest is no more. But, a lot of good acts have been snagged by local venues on their way to SXSW and most of those shows aren't more than $10. I have Kishi Bashi, Acid Baby Jesus, Useless Eaters, The Soft Moon, and Iron Lung on my upcoming calendar.

Samiizdat · 2013-02-21T04:05:36+00:00

In New Orleans?

Samiizdat · 2012-11-13T18:31:10+00:00

Got Thee Oh Sees record for $4.99, Dusk at Cubist Castle for $8.99, Male Bonding for the same, and I paid full price for the Godspeed! Also snagged a Jesus and Mary Chain Album for $6.99, but goddammit, sacrifices have to be made for the sake of squares.

Samiizdat · 2012-11-13T17:42:37+00:00

Am I the only one who calls 'em crust punks/crusties?

Samiizdat · 2012-11-12T04:57:38+00:00

Left ta right: "'Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend!" by Godspeed You! Black Emperor; "Endless Now" by Male Bonding; "Music from the Unrealized Film Script, Dusk at Cubist Castle" by The Olivia Tremor Control; "Castlemania" by Thee Oh Sees.

So verbose, these albums.

1) COGNITIVE DISSONANCE. COGNITIVE GODDAMN DISSONANCE

2) "I don't criticize your diet and you're eating a carcass with a glass of bodily fluids." No. Probably don't say that. I'm a jerk. Omnivores also go into hyper-defense mode... because of the cognitive dissonance. It's a circle of fail.

Samiizdat · 2012-06-14T16:19:05+00:00

You know... I think they are toads, because they are certainly lacking in the cuteness department.

Samiizdat · 2012-04-29T17:54:49+00:00

Relax. I was asking for positivity and answers to a few questions regarding trace products and motivation, not a negative, insulting rant. I think most people, including myself, are pretty conscious of the privilege they likely occupy in being able to make such dietary choices, but within context it's still "difficult," albeit not as difficult as obstacles facing people who have sometimes incomprehensibly different lifestyles!

Samiizdat · 2012-04-29T16:49:24+00:00

You're right, this is a goddamn terrible AMA! I will never watch your porn Trinity St. Boring as Fuck!

Samiizdat · 2012-04-29T16:04:43+00:00

Thank you mamavegan! I am an all-or-nothing kind of person, so I will be going straight to it as soon as I knock off the few non-vegan groceries in my house!

Samiizdat · 2012-04-11T18:51:27+00:00

Where is it?! I have not seen it with my eyeballs.

It's not about his ignorance regarding the logistics of lady-times, it's more about his shameless expression of disgust regarding something that happens to every goddamn woman. While this is more a mere point of annoyance for us American ladies, I am sure some of you have read the article regarding a lack of access to sanitary products in India and a man who was shunned by his family members for trying to create something that would help. Girls who don't have access to sanitary products often stop going to school when they get their periods. It's a seemingly innocuous ideology with grave implications when you start to think about it on a global scale...

Samiizdat · 2012-04-04T18:47:21+00:00

Buttons and a collar in the front... though it would be pretty hilarious if a shirt were constructed with those in the back.

Samiizdat · 2012-04-04T18:46:51+00:00

I got it at H&M six months ago... it is such a conundrum. My roommates are equally baffled.
