THE LAST DARK MEAT SHOW IN ATHENS!
(via merkatroid)
Sadly, this seems to be true, it was posted on their facebook awhile back:
Last Shows Ever! It’s true: Dark Meat will play our last four shows ever on the weekends of Feb 12 and Feb 19th. Dig the dates below. This serves as an open call. If you’ve played, come play once more; if you’ve freaked, come freak again. Recordings remain that will see the light of day somewhere; there will be no m…ore shows. We’re moving on. The reaper calls. Valhalla awaits! See you there. January 15 at 5:36pm
More funny corrections here.
Kinda reminds me of the time I did a story about a book on heroin addicts and spelled it “heroine.” I guess that would’ve applied to comics geeks who can’t get enough of female superheroes?
I’m just gonna say it: there will be NOTHING better than this on TV on Sunday.
(this is the poster from last year; this year, I hear they’ve added bunny cheerleaders and a hamster in a blimp — thanks Anne)
These kind of errors happen to us all. You say tomato …
Wonder if Susan Sarandon will go on tour with of Montreal and spank their pigs from here out? She did a mighty fine job of it Tuesday night at the Highline Ballroom in NYC.
W(H)ACK.
Jónsi just released his solo North American tour dates!
The tour will feature a brand new band and a stage set designed by 59 Productions, bringing together the worlds of theatre and music in a new and hopefully unique way.

There is a gaping southeastern hole in that tour list.
I second that (about the gaping southeastern hole and the most beautiful music on the planet).

Pete McCommons' Pub Notes
The “Animal Voices Film Festival” started this week at UGA. It’s a great lineup of features — the descriptions are listed with the story. I also really liked Pete McCommons’ Pub Notes today. Some mornings when the wind is right, I can smell the stench of the chicken factories nearby. It’s repulsive and sad and enraging all at the same time. Probably not a feng-shui way to start the day, smelling those chicken factories.
In other news from Bear Hollow, Gus has certainly provided some good news for those who live ‘round these parts. Spring’s a’comin’ soon.
Maybe it was just that his name was Dill Pickle, or that he spent most of his life in an elementary school aquarium and never got to see the real world (though he was spared and loved by kids all over Athens when he was rescued by Bear Hollow). But the passing of this little alligator has me kinda melancholy today.
