Highway 61 Revisited

Sat, 26 Jul 2008 06:20:38 GMT

So i was reading something on Spike Jonez, and then it lead to reading stuff on Squeak E. Clean and then reading about Karen O and i had NO IDEA that she contributed to the I'm Not There soundtrack, so here is a video with the song.

Karen O's side project Native Korean Rock and show

Native Korean Rock and the Fishnets COME DROWN WITH US

Native Korean Rock is a side project of mine comprised of a body of love songs written over the last two years, to be performed with a motley crew of NYC natives. Expect high drama, high stakes in two intimate performances.

Does Native Korean Rock have anything to do with Yeah Yeah Yeahs? NO

Are these the leaked demos of years ago? NO

(There's an image you can see from their site. Native Korean Rock and The Fishnets playing on July 21st at Union Pool in Brooklyn.)

Union Pool, Brooklyn, New York

Tickets available July 18 at 12pm EST via ticketweb

There are a few tracks on myspace: http://www.myspace.com/nativekoreanrock

t-shirt searching

Sun, 04 May 2008 16:28:42 GMT

hey guys, so i've been looking for this yeah yeah yeahs shirt from a tour they did a LONG time ago (2003-2004). I had two friends that had the shirt, and one girl lost hers and the other friend gave his to a girl he is no longer really friends with. i've gone through extreme measures to get this shirt. I've even contacted the girl that my friend gave his shirt to, and of course, she thought i was insane. I found it ONCE on eBay, and i won the bid but the seller told me that she sold it somewhere else and "accidentally" forgot to cancel the auction on eBay.

This shirt has a girl and a boy on it kissing, and there are speech bubbles coming out of their mouthes that say "yeah" and then there is a little bunny or something somewhere else on the shirt that says "Yeahs." if ANYBODY has this shirt, i'm willing to buy it off of you for a ridiculous amount of money.

2008

We have a wet and wild feeling about 2008 and we're not kidding. YYYs are currently writing and recording another record. A chunk of December was spent on a musical farm in Mass throwing cow dung at each other, making music makes us do strange things. Holidays brought adventures and performances into the YYY foreground. Nick defected to Mexico where he swam with dolphins, made friends with bats in caves with lakes, got into fights with teenage hotel managers, and climbed pyramids. Brian froze his balls off in Brooklyn. Karen went backpacking in Europe, it's something mostly young broke students do but with the dollar so weak it was still expensive.

On a work front Brian has been ringing in both sides of this New Year with music and friends, performing with Matt Welch's BPO (http://profile.myspace.com/matthewtobinwelch), Jeremiah Lockwood's the Sway Machinery (http://www.swaymachinery.com), and Mike Pride's Drummer's Corpse (http://www.myspace.com/snugglestencil). Also, he's been at work on a project of solo recordings he's calling, for now, "drums and drones" which are inspired by La Monte Young's Dream House (http://melafoundation.org). Outside of music, Brians' practicing Ashtanga Yoga (http://ayri.org/) and is excited about where that's taking him. But, most of all, looking forward to New Music in this New Year with YYYs!!! Nick had solo photo show in Tokyo, remixes coming out nowish for celebration, hives, and manson. He's working on another photo book, LOOOKOUT for his fashion photo in the new Vice and a bunch of other photos in the Vice photo book. Karen is piddling around on various top secret projects that are getting little attention now that the next record is on its way. She just finished co-directing a low budget music video for the Tiny Masters of Today. Other than that she has been obsessing over various television series that she received as x-mas presents, her favorite being the UK's own Mighty Boosh http://themightyboosh.com/.
If that's all too much information, sorry but needed to catch you all up.

New Year, new music, new website, new attitude, same old lovin from us to you!

Poor Song

Sat, 05 Jan 2008 16:23:16 GMT

I just bought/watched the Tell Me What Rockers To Swallow dvd. It had only a couple of songs I'd never heard before (Sealings and Poor Song)

I was able to track Sealings to the Spider-Man 3 soundtrack, my question is: What cd/record etc. includes Poor Song? Is it a cover of someone else's song?

Any help would be appreciated. It's driving me a little batty.

Christian Joy & Karen O

Sun, 14 Oct 2007 00:07:03 GMT

Christianjoy.us is all snazzy and updated. There's plenty of new photos of Karen modeling Christian's Spring 2008 collection and also a few new ones of Karen in her stage costumes.

Gah, love her.

Check out the website for all the pictures, will ya?

SF Filmore Show Pictures!!!

Sun, 02 Sep 2007 02:24:40 GMT

This is a little late but it took awhile to get these uploaded. I went to the SF show and the LA show a week and a half ago. Both were amazing, but due to the venue and security situations the SF show at the Filmore was far better. There was no gap in between the crowd and the stage so Karen interacted with everyone a lot so there seemed to be more energy.

My friend took my camera from me and snapped tons of pictures during the show so if any of you would like to see them they are all here at my photobucket album. Enjoy! :]

Anyone else at either of the shows? Highlights? Thoughts?

Kiss Kiss Lyrics

Sat, 25 Aug 2007 22:05:37 GMT

Does anyone know all of the lyrics to Kiss Kiss? Most of the sites that claim to have it don't have the entire song. I combined a few of the search results but there are still some unknown lines. Here's what I have:

Green hours
Blue rope
Hot wax for hearts are cold
We're three we're three in the dark tonight
Oh baby my snake is a shark tonight

He's got youth on his side
He's got small purple eyes

Now he's as straight as a bone
When there's nobody home
Hey

Everywhere kiss me
Everywhere kids speak
No catch no beat
Everywhere Kiss Me
Everywhere Kiss Me

Everywhere kiss me
Everywhere kids meet
No catch no beat
Everywhere kiss, everywhere kiss, kiss me

I ?
I dropped my musings out of sight
I drank until the water's dry
it's all okay 'til someone dies

shoot my name up every vein
you can't get hurt, you can't complain
no feet, no hand, no tail, no lies
he's got youth on his side

Everywhere kiss me
Everywhere kids speak
No catch no beat
Everywhere Kiss Me
Everywhere Kiss Me

Everywhere kiss me
Everywhere kiss meet
No catch no beat
Everywhere kiss, everywhere kiss, kiss me

We're three, we're three, we're three
we're three
we're three in the dark tonight
oh baby my snake is a shark tonight
`````

Any help is appreciated.

tickets

Sat, 04 Aug 2007 17:49:16 GMT

tickets for the show at the mayan on the 22nd fucking SOLD OUT. i was supposed to get those tickets for my 17th birthday (which is tomorrow) and i've loved them ever since i was 12. i've never had the chance to see them because my parents are over protective as fuck, i can't go to coachella, and tickets sell out.

sorry for posting this, i'm just really pissed off.
