It's a rainy Sunday morning and we're all stuck indoors. Little Oliver is still battling Scarlet Fever. Could be a very long day. In any case, here are a few items I deemed worth sharin'. Please enjoy.
First up, my pal/colleague Drew found this blog entry on the (late?) great Shawn Kerri. You may remember my own post dedicated to her greatness not too long back.
Tim B. (a.k.a. Karate Boogaloo -- you figure that one out) over at Stupefaction hipped me to this amazing-looking exhibition of rock photography at the Brooklyn Museum. It does indeed look "epic."
Also from Tim, it seems that Etherea Records rides again! Well, not quite. You may remember this old post about Etherea (arguably the last decent music shop in the East Village that wasn't on or at least near St. Marks Place). Well, evidently you have one last opportunity to rifle through their stock, looking for that elusive Fad Gadget e.p. (or whatever).
Courtesy of Copyranter, this item proves how fast one can mobilize their ideas to the market. The shirt was up before the balloon was done.
Jill has some cool shots of Irish Street Art.
Check out my own recent updates to The New York Nobody Sings, notably my entries on the Psychedelic Furs, Henry Rollins' homage to "Taxi Driver" and the inherent awfulness of Adam Duritz.
Here, Ben Wagner shares his personal recollections of Maurice Sendak's "Where the Wild Things Are."
Lastly, here's a clip from a band I'd churlishly written off because I found their name stupid. Again, Drew (him of the Shawn Kerri recommendation above) forwarded me this video, and I'll be damned if I didn't enjoy it. See if you agree.
