Breakfast is the Best Meal of the Day...

Honestly. Doesn't matter what time I wake up, whether its 7 in the morning or 5 in the afternoon, the first thing I want steaming in my belly better be something breakfast related; cereal, eggs, toast, pancakes, waffles, fruit. All good. All the time.

With that out of the way, today was a major success. I got iced coffee half way through the show and the girl behind the counter at the green tent had a Black Dice shirt on, so that was dope. James wants to add that she looks like a robot. Diff' strokes, diff' folks.

Also, anyone remember this show?? Nick Arcade? Crazy show where kids played inside video games? I'm really dying to know what it looked like for the contestants playing. Green screen?

I played this dope new Zach Hill album called Astrological Straits. People might disagree with me on this, but just about anything Zach Hill does is gold. Maybe I'm biased, maybe it's just cause I wish I could play drums that good but probably never will. Hell, I'm even down with his side project Nervous Cop, which is just three drummers going wild for a couple minutes. There was also an art show he did a while back that was pretty sweet, even if what he was selling, might have been a bit overpriced. Can't knock the guy for trying though.

That stuff aside though, this new album is pretty rockin. It has that Hella sound from Church Gone Wild and Homeboy. Its released on Ipecac Records, some fellows known for releasing almost all his stuff, and most of Hella's related acts. My man Zhubin recommended it to me, because we're both Hella fans. And if you want to check out his show, its called Hot Water, every Friday from 3:00-5:00PM.
