hi.
i've decided to start using myspace again, befriending bands i like in order to create some kind of overview for myself when it comes new'ish bands that don't necessarily have an album out to buy or download just yet. so yeah, no more top friends drama ^_^
this profile was originally created for my piano pieces, but uhm, yeah. procrastination is the best.
the nyc (mainly brooklyn) diy music and art scene made me realize us dirty eurotrash kids are fucking lazy. as a response i've started the Pleasure nights. pleasurenowplease.blogspot.com is where it's at. Past Pleasure includes What's Up, Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, Neon Indian, Yacht, Guernica's last show, Skeletons, Woods, Tickley Feather, Teengirl Fantasy, Karl Blau. independent music and visual art at various locations where you can party with and speak to people. you don't have to pay mucho mucho dinero and you certainly do not have to fuck off right after the show. stay and display!
i am an independent concert/party/art promotor, i dj, i play in bands, i make music for fashion runway shows and just for fashion campaigns in general (but also educational initiatives and whatever, seriously whatever! contact me, girl or dude. i'd love to do that kinda thing more), i get things done, i translate, i studied philosophy so in our society that makes me de facto a philosopher and i'm now doing an extra MA in american studies. drop me a line at iamthemichael at gmail dot com. let's do something good together or feel free to book me.
guernica is peacefully dead and i'm now playing bass with the no wavey and loud penguins know why and forming a band with two extremely lovable ladies. still trying to be the posterboy for the We generation, not working out so far.
i miss la petite hacienda (and all the people there). fuck the mayor, he has no peen.
lately i've been enjoying blondes (the band, mostly), the seeds, real estate, j dilla, tonstartbandsht, the four tops, fugazi, manuel göttsching, spacemen 3, etc
