so i was sending chupe a package today.

[minxnim]

and i had about 6 other packages to send to my sister and some other people and the mail lady was holding chupe's package and says 'wow you know people in all sorts of places'. and so i was like 'you don't know who that guy is?' and she looked at the name and said 'no?' and i was like 'wow, that's weird'.

she's totally going to google him when she gets home.

haha that's awesome

 

[minxnim]

then i went to this dinky record store on montague street in brooklyn and asked the two guys if they had the kayo dot cd (because i never got to virgin because i'm a lazy jerk) and they were like 'wha?' and so i repeated it and they said no. so i said 'wow i dunno what to fuckin tell you guys seriously.....'.

they'll be googling kayo dot tonight.

i seem to recall that googling Eric Burnley did not, as you might think, produce a first reference to his high-calibre guitar work.

instead, something about beer.

 

[minxnim]

either way, the meme has been implanted.

[minxnim]

i do what i can.

i also have to note that changing the band's name to Kayo Dot did not alleviate the "maudlin-of-the-Well-what?-maudlin-of-the-well-oh-cool" situation much.

 

[deadair]

damn... start dropping indie workshop around like that.



you should charge for you marketing ways

prep once convinced me that i live in burma.

 

[xfer]

there's an indieworkshop.com sticker on my cart so whenever i go around the library finding magazines, library nerds know where to go for news, reviews, and regularly-updated editorials!

 

[minxnim]

nick, you do live in burma.

 

[goatschool]

right, like i said. i live in burma.

IW totally reaches out to the nerds

 

[Steve]

unfortunely your arm is only long enough to reach your refridgerator to get more beer.

 

[deadair]

...yes steve...

 

[xfer]

that was either the worst or best post i've ever seen.

 

[minxnim]

wait... what just happened here?
