Don't watch the MTV show The Wrap. because it's not good.
a new show... "the definitive". this one is all animated vidoes. dire straits. less boring than something else i guess.

ffff ok. I like a Coldplay song. "Politik." Nice name, and it just sounds... nice. Simple, drilling repetitive chords. Nice

ok. ok people. this is getting absolutely ridiculous.
MTV.
The advertisement for the new show that used Interpol's "Untitled" was bad enough.
The ad for the new "Rock and Roll" fragrance from Calvin Klein... Icould tell right away what the commercial was for; I almost puked.
But the Mooney Suzuki, for a commercial about Nike Baseball? WHAT THE FUCK?! They were played during it and wrtten on a marquee... what the hell is going on!?!?

My greatest fear is that in 10 years, someone will look back on the Strokes in the same way I look back on Poison.

"The Rolling Stones, who have defined rock 'n' roll as much as any group for more than 35 years, insist, almost defiantly, that their creative vitality and, yes, their health are thriving."
yeah, right.

Interpol celebrity spins
Interpol's post-punk makeover

ok, really now, this is ridiculous. i can kind of see how the strokes could open for the rolling stones. but the white stripes? aren't they above that? don't they know better than to support such a blatantly commercial-driven rock act 20 years or more past its prime!?

get over yourself, axl. nobody cares.

grrrreat. Enon is coming to Chi-town, and I've been waiting a while [i couldnt even find their website, it's a goddamn .tv]. they're coming on homecoming, and i asked julie. whoop de shit

Thank god for Adult Swim. Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law is the most random show. ever. he defends booboo [from yogi] in court, cause he's the 'booboobomber,' and ends up sleeping with him. really.
and the fatty scene in sealab2021. i died laughing
Brad at jeans and a t-shirt responded to my comment over there. nice guys they are
