Cool picture overview of the recent Primitive fest in Rotterdam at YadaYadaOink.com. (link c/o Sander Bink)
And even more...


Dear Cats and/or Kittens,

Can't knock the rock? Then give in for a triple helping of rock and/or roll, SIT & Die Co. style!

THURSDAY, JULY 21st / OTTO'S SHRUNKEN HEAD / 8:00 - 12:00

It's another spectacular monthly revue of music, mirth and canned ham -- and special featured guests: uptown's Heather Allison, down South's Rosalyn Morris and the gypsy that's everywhere, Baby Maria. DJ Fabio Roberti will provide the atmosphere and we'll provide the snack bowls, all in the air-conditioned elegance of Otto's, located at 538 East 14th Street (just west of Avenue B) in Manhattan's East Village. Two complete shows, at 8:00 and 10:00 sharp. Free! / www.OttosShrunkenHead.com /

FRIDAY, JULY 22nd / FREDDY'S BACKROOM / 9:00 - 9:45

The 2nd Annual Brooklyn Country Music Festival returns to the old-timey setting of Freddy's in Park Slope, Brooklyn, found at 485 Dean Street. No cover -- and free frankfurters! / www.BrooklynCountryMusic.com /

SATURDAY, JULY 23rd / RODEO BAR / 10:30 - 1:30

We're back at the Rodeo Bar, home of Tex-Mex grub, cold beer and peanuts in the shell, located at 375 Third Avenue (at 27th Street) in Kips Bay, Manhattan. We'll play three sets(!), from 10:30 on, and the music, like the peanuts in the shell, is free. / www.RodeoBar.com /

Why, it's three times the rock!

Sincerely,
Michael Susquehanna Industrial Tool & Die Co "Ballads, Boogies & Blues"

And now to a few random things that'll keep you occupied while I have the rest of the day away from the screen here. Give the old peepers a break, catch up on some of the music and stuff that's lying around. Might even look into the possibility of catching DIG! , if it's still playing at any of the cinemas around here. I'm not holding my breath. So this next segment comes courtesy of a man who knows how to mix it up (Thanks Marty)...

LONG GONE JOHN interview. Then visit Sympathy to check out the latest releases.

BUBBLEGUM MACHINE (does pretty much what it sez on the glass).

The men don't know but the little GHOULS understand.

As the great one said, "and awaaaaaaay we go!" So get going.
