Accepting films and music.
Accepting ideas if you want to curate a night.

Actually, I think this sounds cool. The most fun MCMF shows I've been to were the ones that focused on what was going on locally. It wasn't just friend rock, tons of people came to the shows and it was a big party. Cool.

So, I finally got around to posting some photos from MCMF. Yeah, they are kind of dark! But, my thumb isn't in most of them so I am way on top of my game with these!

I really wish I'd gotten some photos at all of the shows I went to, especially the Connie Fucking Francis/Wobbly/Total Annihilation/Fierce Antler show! This was a costumed extravaganza -- Total Anhilation dressed like it was halloween, fierce antler dressed for the gym, and the girl from CFF smears her eye shadow just right. No costumes for Wobbly though, his laptop is too academic for that!

Where are the rest of MCMF photos?

Also, is it just me or does flickr need a better way to post/share a set? Getting these up was annoying!

Wow, thanks again to the Mission Creek Music Festival, in conjuction with Neil Martinson and SMILE! There's something to do in this town. One night only, from the Windy City! Chamber Strings. We can 't wait. Tonight Cafe du Nord! We hope it's not sold out. Also appearing, Persephonee's Bees and the Dilettantes. Ohhh! There's some history there. (Keep Mike Farrell and Kevin Junior apart from one another!)

The mission creek calendar is (finally) up. Or, I guess it has been for a bit now. Whats this sonic living buisness anyway, and how is this molly chick going to every mission creek show? She's talented!

Speaking of going to shows, who's going to what?? I'm going to these this weekend:
Axolotl, The Deletist, Sheila Bosco, Lady Neigh
Fierce Antler, Total Annihilation, The Freddy McGuire Show, Connie Fucking Francis
Captain Ahab, Casy and Brian, Strength, Hard Place, Bizzart

A word of warning bands: I'm bringing my camera so you'd better look hot!

Bookworms, Oaxacan, Triangle, and White Tigers (So So Many White? I dunno!).

We were there. (Some of) The Passionistas were there. Cobain in a coma was there (by default, but it counts). Were you there? More to come, but fyi The Mission Creek Music Festival is in full swing ladies.

What do you mean you have to work in the morning?
