pretty sneaky, sis

man, i have felt like complete shit the past two/three days. i dont know if i have ever mentioned but i fall victim to some pretty bad panic attacks every 6 months or so. i cant do anything but sleep for those days, which is pretty awesome. not knowing what triggers them, is even doubly awesome. needless to say, i just scarf down the ativan and hope for the best. anyone else go through this shit?

tomorrow evening at the earl is david yow and qui. well, they are not two separate acts, david yow is now in the los angeles based qui. just to clear things up. their new record, love’s miracle, is not a huge departure from the lizard. its not as frantic but the music is as methodical and cold.

well, after years of half heartedly wondering what david yow, ex-jesus lizard and scratch acid, was up to my search has come to an end. apparently, he’s fronting a newish los angeles based trio called qui. they arent exactly newish, i suppose, seeing as they have been around since 2000 but qui is newish to david yow. i would be lying if i said qui didnt bear a decent resemblance to jesus lizard, but i guess with mr yow at the helm its kinda hard to fit him into a different mold. this is not a bad thing by any means, im just sayin. they dont have any tunes posted anywhere, that i could find, outside of their myspace page. they have a record coming out sometime soon according to their myspace page.

if you are unfamiliar with the jesus lizard here is at least in my mind the quintessential jesus lizard song.

im going to be honest, i know nothing about radio birdman outside of this show from cats cradle on 6.29.07. a dear reader requested it so therefore i had to comply. for those familiar with australia’s radio birdman which record should i start with if i were to get into their catalogue?
