Some of you have been asking about Girl Talk. Basically I have had to put everything on hold until the Student Council decides what band they think is best -- this meeting is set to happen in the next few weeks. Tommy Goodwin usually throws some names out.
Please, please, TALK to your class reps and spread the album to anyone who wants it. Ultimately, it seems that if there is overwhelming student support for it, we will be able to put up the money, and find a way to cover the gap.
I'm going to be honest, I went to see the Rapture instead of Clipse at the Riottt Festival. That said, this album is wayyy better than the new Rapture crap.
I had all of the OutKast albums uploading to filecrunch, but they got interrupted up during my nap -- so you are going to have to deal with a bunch of different sites for these albums.
girltalk update: I got in touch with his agent, and he is unbooked on the night of Dance with the Devils (which is at slims this year)! We just have to figure out if we can scrap the cash together.
www.filecrunch.com is the new official file hoster of ht's. check it out - it puts crapidshare to shame.
There are a few things I want to cover, and I figure you get a ton of emails - so imma get to it.
1) I am a 17 year old high school senior from San Francisco. I put nightripper up on my music blog a while ago - and it is starting to blow up at my school. a bunch of us were there at Riott.
a. I hope you don't get too many "aww dude what the fuck" emails, because in my opinion, 10 minutes of total party was way better than the 30 of not party.
a1. My little brother, who is in fifth grade, and was there with me -- tried to hop the fence... got rejected by a security guard... and proceeded to look me in the eye and say "this is awesome!"
b1. also. It's actually ironic that your set, which was the most similar to the "one shall rise" / "Be A RIOTTT" slogans of the festival, was the one that got capped. I guess people were covering the Scion logos.
2) So, what we were thinking about on the bus ride home, was how we could maximize our--and maybe the bay area's--girltalk exposure.
first idea: truck down to LA on the 13th of January to see you there. issue: we won't be 18 at the time of the show.
second idea: actually host you at one of our houses and have an insane party. (so yea, my school actually has a big party where they bring in local artists - a few years ago we had Zion-i)
I hit us that nothing will ever happen if you, personally, aren't somewhat into the idea of making our lives. We know that you are super busy, but we like you, a lot, and that's worth something right?
write back?

YOO all,
thanks for coming out!
it was horseshit, them cutting me off and all, but like you said, 10 minutes of a party is better than 30 minutes of not a party. so i really enjoyed, just pissed that some people paid $30 to get in there and only got 10 minutes. but yeah, i still had a blast
don't know what to tell you about the 18+ thing
if interesting in booking at your high school, which i'm totally down with (my schedule is just a little filled though), i have a guy who handles my booking: sam@windishagency.com . he can help you out if interested
