Mayor Daley & U.S. Girls @ Monster Island
Mayor Daley is a metal band and it was so good. I am really into Dewayne Slightweight's solo art albums, and this was nothing like it but wonderful altogether in a metal trance drone gallop with melvins breakdowns. yeah. My friend h. chew told me about them a while back and I was finally able to check them out tonight. A band called Queenie opened the set, still cutting their teeth but getting on. After M D was this rad noise lady called U.S. Girls that was this dubby crunch, she sang live but it sounded like crazy backwards tape loops. amazing! check her out if she comes thru your town or village. Next was Ducktails but I missed them because my friend and I were outside chasing stray kittens and then we met Killah Priest. Holy shit! He is the smartest dude I have met in forever. We talked for a while about religion and feminism and all sorts of other stuff. We went back inside and caught the dude from Psychedelic Horseshit that got added to the bill I guess which is great as I have been wanting to see him/ them. I have read that his/their shows go differently every time so hard to describe wholly? Wacky for certain. jandek is the only correlation that came to mind but really he's nothing like that. Will catch again in another incarnation. Left before G Lucas Crane went on as I have a busy day of work and map-studying tomorrow. On that note, goodnight.

yeah, us girls is good. what's weird is that i like the live on wfmu mp3s more than the lp or 7"s or cd-rs... i think she was in that band hustler white. remember them, kendra? one of those portland summer 2003 no wave groups?
oh yeah! I was into hustler white lots. I remember better the singer lady. are we now in a post-neo-no wave era?
that should be in another 3 years when no new york gets reissued on itunes.
