happy april fools day, you sons a bitches! fess up which one of you has or is going to be partaking in some kind of elaborate april fools gag? i stopped in 03, but it was a hard teet to break from. here’s a “complete” list of pranks pulled around the inter webs.

you like music? i am assuming you do cause you’re here. well, then chicago’s unicycle loves you could possibly be the answer to that question. they pack all the awesomeness of the last 30 or so years of music into 3 or so minutes better than i have heard anyone trying to pull off in a long ass time. ba da ba ba ba, im lovin it.

their self titled record is out sometime soon on highwheel records, i assume. oh and it was produced by my personal favorite, brian deck - who actually produced half of the new counting crows. weird.

highway robbery

hawaii!

unicycle loves you myspace

husker du’s warehouse is one of my favorite records. so, when i found this on dime, i kinda felt like i had stumbled upon the holy grail or something of less significance. this here is the men of husker du rehearsing the songs of warehouse before hitting the studio sometime between august and november of 86 - the date on the txt file is the 5th of august, but of course its debatable. the rehearsal is cut short by the minneapolis po-po who had several complaints that they were way too loud and you can actually hear the cop saying, and i am paraphrasing, “you guys cant believe how loud it is.” not only does this bring the songs of warehouse into a different light, but its also just pretty bad ass to have.
