They negate everything you’ve said before them. Yet people don’t seem to get this first-grade vocabulary issue. eg: Chick insists she’s like totally a free speech kinda gal, but how dare Daniel Tosh make jokes she doesn’t find funny. [Anti-feminist stuff, and Tosh’s whole schtick is to push the envelope […]

So, I wrote this last night and was going to post it later on the weekend, but when I got up this afternoon I found Michael Mann at the Straight had posted his comments about the “just press play” milieu of the electronic dance music scene and I thought maybe […]
Funny as I’m settling down to write a rather dark batch of songs I find this: Kathy Shaidle’s list of favorite revenge songs Of course “You Oughta Know” is on there, though it’s not her #1. Years ago I recall reading some interview with Trent Reznor where he was commenting […]
July 2nd in Vancouver. Now, I don’t mind cool overcast days, but this is getting a little ridiculous. Reminds me of what a friend said last week. He’ll be away on tour starting in the fall. “Yeah, gotta get away from the Vancouver winter this time, seeing as we’ve had […]
For whatever reason my Google alert didn’t tip me off to this one, came in to do my radio show [The Vampire’s Ball] at CiTR Radio and saw my name on the wall by the music director’s office – on this week’s top 30 chart printout. So, Futureghosts has re-entered […]

Maybe it’s just my asshole planet talking [Mars in Scorpio], but I find it amusing that the guy who wrote Rent had a song lamenting how he’d love to write just one good song before he died. And then he died just before the initial opening night. [Which was really […]
Whenever I hear someone bitch and moan about horrible things that happened to their ancestors 200+ years ago all I can think is “wow, you actually know where you came from that far into the past?” [also a liberal dose of “you really have nothing better to do than to […]

Super stoked to hear about Coma Music Magazine’s upcoming covers compilation – industrial versions of hair metal songs [disc 1] and New Wave [disc 2]. Now, it’s always been kosher to like New Wave, but naturally it’s been about 25 years since it was OK to admit to liking hair […]
iVardensphere is just kicking off their North American tour, second date being tonight here in Vancouver. Here’s a couple cell phone camera shots of the show, check ’em out when they hit your town! Weird/neat effect on this shot, the strobes were going off so my best guess is the […]

As I’ve mentioned before, I DJ at CiTR Radio in Vancouver. So, I get the emails with the playlist add information and I was pleased to see the following little mini-review blurb for Futureghosts officially being added this week [a few of my fellow DJs at CiTR already have digital […]
