Back from a whirlwind trip to Vancouver to see my buddy Bob and bring Maddy to see Grandma and Grandpa.
Watched some hockey(go Nucks!), ate a mondo Tuna taco on Lonsdale and rolled into the Zone to a few interesting developments.
one. New music from Tokyo Police Club. They have a new single on the radio called “Wait Up (Boots of Danger).” and I found a song on their website from the upcoming record Champ (June 8th) that is a free download if you give your email address to them.
Stream: “Wait Up (Boots of Danger”
Download: “Breakneck Speed“
two. Maybe because it is a Monday… this video hit the spot. Warning, the new M.I.A. music video for “Born Free” is SAVAGE with extreme violence.
That said, a great film.
Watch: M.I.A. – “Born Free”
It has a style that reminds me of the film “Children of Men.” It is telling the story of maybe a near future fascist America that has decided they won’t tolerate anymore of a certain type of person… and how they deal with their “problem” group of humans is well… we’ve seen it in histry before, and we’ll see it again. Like I said, the video is not for the faint of heart. Very graphic.

Interview with Tokyo Police Club is coming up and I’ll have a new mix on Mixcloud tonight or tomorrow.
Go with yourself.
Wow… that video is intense.
yeah… and it just gets more harsh and more harsh. The song is secondary to the action of the film!
Aw, sleeping child. Such beauty.
Now the world knows our dirty little secret that Mads sleeps with a sucky still. BAD PARENTS!!!
its ok… the baby likes it. 🙂
Not bad parents. Callie and Lily just gave up theirs when I quit smoking. So that was Jan 1/10 that made them four. It went so smoothly but it did NOT go smoothly when I tried to wean them off at Maddy’s age. You just do what you gotta do and hope everything is cool with the teeth.
Not bad though 🙂
