Holy Jeebus!


They go from being on what's generally considered to be the WORST label in music history, to the SECOND worst. Damn, their management and business associates are really, really...


oh wait.

and how great of a collaboration can it be when the best musicians in the band weren't even with them any more?

i don't think they've been a good label since...forever? that, and i guess some people in the business like to get fucked.

TVT aren't all bad; they released XTC's "Transistor Blast" Boxed Set and "Apple Box"...but looking at their current lineup....sheesh.

Yeah, weird. I didn't think SCI needed openers, especially in their hometown...I guess it's not a question of "need" for them though.

I could see it more in the robe days...this new sort of direction I don't know...

I thought SCI were broken up anyway...guess not....

[mr_j]

personally, i can't wait to hear all of those wonderful "Speekers" remixes of Lumidee and Ying Yang Twins!

"Lil Jon featuring Julie Duncanville" is the can't miss jam of the season!

mr. "WHAT? WHAT? YEAH! OKAY" j

love this:

"The Spree will be making four appearances at SXSW, so if you see what looks like a battalion of My Chemical Romance super-fans crossing the street together, it's probably them."
