Maybe you've seen these excellent Banana Republican stickers around NYC and out and about. You should email this guy and ask him for some to put up. (Reminds me of the no-alien stickers that seemed to circle endlessly in the zine community of the mid-late 90s, or...obey, but must less obviously design-y)

Saw U.S.E. last night at the Knit and while I will love them til the end of time, I have to say that their newer, mid-tempo songs don't catch me nearly as hard as does "Emerald City" or any of their earlier jams. Noah was still as adorable as ever and the girls I think keep getting better and better. Sigh.

Listening to the new Celebration record, ex-JAKS and Love Life but without Anthony, who is now in Bellmer Dolls (who could def. take the Dresden Dolls in a fight but who would want to beat up those two?). Katrina is less screamy and the organ sounds are now not guitar-organ, just organ, which gives it a more b-movie haunt feeling that the true horrorsound of Love Life. That JAKS reissue, that I reviewed for Seattle Weekly, is really killer. I wish I had seen Katrina back then - what a fury she must have been.
