Sat 3/8/25: après-guerre na・poto

Sat 3/8/25: Douglas at Helluva Lounge in Kobe. I really dug these repetitive krautrock rhythms with sparse guitar parts and post punk tinged vocals.

Got to Osaka yesterday and had to make a choice between 2 shows. One at Namba Bears with a sick band I recently discovered (Slug), and one in Kobe with a band that made one of my favorite albums last year (Yureka). After concluding there was no feasible way to go to both, I chose Kobe. Good choice.

Fair point.

I just don’t think we should be including the abusers and pedophiles that could potentially fall in that criteria. Things like that.

Wed 3/5/25: Missing Heads at Club Goodman, Akihabara, Tokyo. My first night and I got to see some legends. Tatsuya Yoshida (Ruins and Kōenji Hyakkei), Mitsuru Tabata (ex Zeni Geva, Boredoms, Acid Mothers Temple), and Kazuhide Yamaji (Dip/Dip The Flag). I wish I could post a longer clip. So good.

As long as they are good weird and good horny, yes.

Same. Honestly seeing all those old Beat Club and Musikladen videos is partly responsible for me filming stuff.

MTV2, VH1 Classic, and Fuse. Good times.

It’s been very good so far.

Is it anyone I would know of?

Josh is a net positive on any site.

It’s so fucking good.

I had to look through what they all put out, and with maybe the exception one album, I agree.

I was in the crowd for that and god that performance was so funny in person

I know there’s actual waterproof cameras that look normal, but for some reason I envision a camera encased and suspended in a clear cube that has a windshield wiper on it.

This goes hard

I’m flying in two weeks and am a bit intrigued how that will go.

This is a possibility.

Hard to call. I feel like there's more fist pumped noise than high five noise, though that doesn't mean it's the main genre. Also, I feel there's some fist pumped noise that's not high five noise, and some high five noise that isn't fist pumped noise.

Is high five noise and fist pumped noise the same thing?

Same

Best

That second one was opening for David Liebe Hart and I wish I could remember all the other stuff that happened during it, cause it was so out there that DLH went around apologizing to people on their behalf.

But yeah, that is true, truly some of the most out of the box set ideas happened there. Last week I was telling a friend about two separate absurd Crappy Dracula sets that happened there. One started with a 10 minute sit down q&a, and another their dummer skyped in from home while he did laundry.

Ending the set with piling up all the chairs and then scaling them? Yes.

Maybe it was the lack of proper heating in the winter. It was probably the garage.

The Borg was a special place for a lot of scenes, but for us in the experimental realms, it was extra special. The Jazz Gallery is doing great things, but also that’s like comparing a real nice pair of khakis to some well worn/worn out jeans that probably could use a wash. I want the jeans.
comment in response to post
I get that. The Borg had a very profound effect on my trajectory as an artist and a person too. I love that nowadays we have X-Ray and Cactus for all ages shows, it’s incredible. But the they are way too different.
comment in response to post
I think the Borg as it was then should stay in the past, however, the city definitely needs something that could fill a similar role. It wouldn’t be the same as the Borg, but I feel like it could share a lot the same aspects and make sense for the current day.

Admittedly, when it happened I was probably the only person not that bummed about it. I was in the process of handing the reigns over, albeit to the people that ended up letting this show happen, so I more so felt relieved.
