PISSCHRIST!
ZENI GEVA!

New Ura Hello Work translations: pot farmer AND professional forger!
List of things to do if you have Bill Gates money.
What makes a wack emcee – flowchart? Perhaps!
Japan’s Punk Scene: a bit of anthropology! Is it political? Is it "real" or fashion?
And. . . . .
if that is not enough . ..
a COMPLETE REHAUL of the "kanjidamage" website. It will be a PROGRAM! and not just a single 3gigabyte-long .html page. I have been secretly working on this for 5 months now and it’s almost . . .well, not done. . . but almost ready for you guys to beta-test it.
Also, I came up with the best Metal band name ever
Are you ready?
(SEEKING FEMALE KEYBOARDIST!)
That’s it! Parenthesis, seeking female keyboardist, exclamation point, end-parenthesis.
That way, every flyer for your show, you’d make whatever band was above you on the flyer seem like total posers.:
Imagine the following on a telephone pole near you:
**************************
12/06 at The Pound, all ages:
BIOHAZARD
(SEEKING FEMALE KEYBOARDIST!)
DISCONFORMITY
************************
or:
***********************
12/19 at CBGBs:
SLAYER
(SEEKING FEMALE KEYBOARDIST!)
NILE
DEATHCOOCH DEBACLE
SOCIOPATHIC REMRANT
***********************
Anyway, someone needs to start that band.

I saw CFD last October and got to meet Craigums after seeing Your Mother back in 1999. A great band – both of them.
While I’m commenting here, you don’t have any ideas on where I could find a copy of Stalin Claus Superstar?
If I had time to play in a band, I’d definitely use (SEEKING FEMALE KEYBOARDIST!) as the name.
@sephim: Jesus, you are hitting 100% on every west coast in-joke EVER. It’s like you are the Muhammmad Ali of ’90s punk. Who are you anyway?
>a COMPLETE REHAUL of the “kanjidamage” website. It will be a PROGRAM!
Yes! Looking forward.
Thanks for the heads up. Looking forward to the “kanjidamage” rehaul. So far, it’s been helpful, man.
I’m just a guy who loves music with a hefty sense of humour. 34 years old, married, one child. People say I hate everything, but that’s not entirely true – I just don’t “get” a lot about what it is people DO like e.g. HDTV, Blu Ray, Dexter, Guitar Hero, Sam Worthington…
You’re wrong; DEATHCOOCH DEBACLE is without a doubt the best possible english language band name.
Holy fuck.
