anyone? anyone?

Arctic Monkeys at the Leisure Anniversary Party on Saturday, Nov 19, 9 pm, at Popscene (330 Rich Street).

Random review:

All hail England’s Arctic Monkeys, the newest kings of the rock bloc. The simians on ice recently topped the UK charts with their single, “I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor,” and are blessing SF with a buzzworthy show honoring the one-year anniversary of Leisure.

  1. So why it that theSlovak gets hipster news, while I get the following from some “Business School” from Sweden:

    “The relentless march of the commodity has seen the marketing machine digest its erstwhile ‘radical other’, and transform Che Guevara and Lenin into pin-up boys for Coke. Moreover, management books now relish in the revolutionary motif…Although frequently laughed off in cynical advertising campaigns and crass corporate slogans, the spectre of revolution still haunts the most intimate beliefs of the capitalist free-market system. It is this aporia that we seek to investigate in the workshop.”

    Its a a three page long “call to papers”-cum-”euro liberal mental masturbation feast” - the whole thing is truely an orgy of useless words and decadent waste of brainpower.

  2. I have honestly always been afraid of the Popscene but I do like the Arctic Monkeys.

  3. actually, ”euro liberal mental masturbation feast” sounds much better than hipsters at popscene. but i shall attend these popscene festivities as it reminds me of my young days in college, when i found comfort for my home sick soul at 330 Rich street.

  4. Oddly enough…That night, I’ll probably be at an Asian Pacific Fund gala at the Four Seasons - doing, you know, Asian stuff.

    If anyone is going, let me know if tickets are available after 10pm.
