The Strokes [11.29.05] London-ULU. Video of the show

This is a .torrent file. I've been posting most on the links as torrents since this is the best way to share music online. So, go get bittorrent and then read this. If you still cant get this stuff to work email me.

I'm making some mp3s of the new songs, but also going to see The Subways' first ever US show on the East Coast. So we'll see when I can get them up here. Hopefully tonight.

First Unitarian Church

I just wanted to express my love for this great small venue in Philadelphia. Its literally the basement of a church, which is weird at first, but its def. an experience. A religious one. haha.

Anyway, I've seen a few shows here in the past. Ted Leo/Yeah Yeahs, were the best. It simply rocked...in church.

So check out First Unitarian Church for upcoming shows, you'll enjoy it.

Or you can take my advice and see The Subways @ First Unitarian March 3rd

Do it, see the Subways. The Philadelphia show was just announced, so jump on it.

RIAA Free Holiday Shopping!

Do you want to support good artists and independent labels, but you don't want to indirectly help fund the RIAA's nefarious activities? Never Fear! After hours of compiling statistics from my abacus and deciphering endless amounts of Morse code I have come up with these record labels and their artists that refuse to join the RIAA.

Happy Holidays!
