On Thursday I had another sweltering day of summer school. I say sweltering because the temperatures here in Minnesota are nearing the mid 90's and the school I am teaching at has no air conditioning what so ever. By the time the kids arrive at 8:30 in the morning I usually have a good sweat going, and the sun has not even really come up yet. Every teacher knows as well that once the heat goes up outside, it stays that way in the classroom until the fall. The school buildi... MORE
ive never been big on unions... but i guess given that i never normally post, its only appropriate that i post now. mostly, i just love this song and felt like posting it.
here's one of my favorite against me songs from their non commercial days of acoustic punk/folk. this song makes more sense if you realize that they named their van armageddon. enjoy
because a little irony never hurt anyone and because the music vid is pretty cool. the people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun Protest Songs in a response to Military AggressionProtest songs to try and stop the soldier's gunBut the battle raged on......

I'm hella excited for them to be comming to a town near me. In March they will be playing with Serg Tankian and the Foo Fighters at a show in San Diego. Should be amazing of course. Though I'm not a big fan of Serg or the Foo Fighters, but should be good nonetheless. Anyone else going to a show on this tour?
For the longest time I've been drooling over videos of live footage from Against Me! shows. I've been a listener of their music since the end of my freshman year in high school. It has to be their honesty and understanding of everything wrong about America and the world. Plus they just sound so badass and catchy. I have their discography including their live albums, and they sound soooo freaking sweet live. I think it's about time I take a roadtrip and finaly go to one of ... MORE
Well the Foo Fighters & Against Me! announced their upcoming tour dates together. Weird + strange but true? Yes Mary, I get it. AM! is becoming big panties and the Foo's are gonna look a little wimpy following them. Ah shucks, even I would go see it, just to see the event. So, while I am pretty sure you have listened to the Foo Fighter's already, let's take a look at Against Me! today, just in case they flew under your radar (or you are not watching MTV this week).

So I missed a chance to go see Against Me! It was kind of saddening. I bought tickets to go, and then circumstances changed and I wasn't able to go.I don't know much about Against Me! but I've taken quite a liking to them in the past few months. Call it jumping on the bandwagon, call it what you will, but I'm not always on the top of the music scene. I know I'm kind of doing it now, but I cannot stand when there's a band that becomes so mainstream and everyone's like, ... MORE
Today started my new show on the radio, entitled "Removed from the Loop", from nine to noon. Sorry I didn't send out or post about it last night...shaving my face is quite the ordeal. To accompany that, I will be getting my hair cut Live! On Air! tonight at MIDNIGHT on WUVT.
