The Raven
194 Avenue A 12th st
I am starting a monthly gig at the Raven. It's the 3rd sat of very month and it is free. Cheap booze as well, along with some good tunes. Come down and bring some flags from all over. See if you can bring a flag from a country I don't have music from and maybe you will get a prize.
Interesting stuff lately...
1. FBI agents shot and let a 72 yr old ex bank robber bleed to death in front of his home. Trouble is the ex bank robber wasn't just a criminal for crime's sake, he was the leader of the Macheteros a pro independence grouping in Puerto Rico. Not the most influencial party out there but Filiberto Ojeda Rios was seen as a PR Che. Also note the day that he was killed was also the date when the Grito de Lares is celebrated on the island. The Grito was a failed slave uprising that independence groups see as a national holiday. Very insulting. Hopefully someone will be held accountable for this.
2. Some funny stuff is happening to some old rich white people in Washington. See what happens when the red sux win the series and hell freezes over? But alas, just in time Osama comes to the rescue with some threats to NYC.
3. O'reilly has lost his shit. The guy says something retarded every night. His newest targets are blogs that report on his distortions like Media Matters, which I has info on the whole Bill Bennett abort black babies quote.
4. Also went to see Everything is Illuminated on Monday and overall I was a bit underwhelmed but still enjoyed Shireber's take on Foer's masterpiece. Alex's grandfather being Jewish threw me off though. Eugene did pretty well and the movie end credits dance by the screen to the beat of Start Wearing Purple by Gogol Bordello, a new version from the newest album I don't have yet (still broke). Dying to see (no pun intended) The War Within, Paradise Now and A History of Violence.
5. Someone should make a list of the addresses of these people and send it directly to Osama. That would make my day.
