I'll be out of the office this afternoon

[chupe666]

getting drunk at a wedding in a Japanese Garden. Do you think they'll have sake plants in the Japanese Garden? I wonder if Jackie Chan will be there. Oh wait, he's Chinese isn't he? One time I had soba noodles. They were good. I like cilantro. I still need to see that Kung Fu Party movie, whatever it's called.
Please leave a message at the tone if you wish to be ignored until next week.
Also, this is a terrible place to work, and I personally despise all our clients.
Have a nice day.

some dude from playback is starting a scandinavian music column, asking for my input and so on. just curious.

Sake Plants?

You mean rice plants?

 

[chupe666]

no, sake plants. Geikkennekaninknainkknnn to be exact.


playback is ok. i disagree with a lot of the writeups, and they have plenty of just plain lazy journalism. it's kind of hit or miss, depending on the writer- some stuff is really good, some is just bad. if he's asking for help, i'd say give him what you have time for- maybe they're improving.

sounds like a typical alt-weekly/local music rag dealie. meh.

 

[chupe666]

i think they're monthly.
The Riverfront Times (www.riverfronttimes.com) is the really good, well established local weekly one. Playback is smaller- they have a website too (www.playbackstl.com), which seems to have grown since i last looked at it so maybe they're getting their act together. it's a young mag, only 3 yrs old.
