TYVEK played to an even emptier room here in Thunder Bay.

My friend Laura was at the Winnipeg TYVEK show.

I only spent a few days in Seoul.  I got drunk on Hite Max, soju and some kind of delicious rice wine.  Went to some giant market that went on for blocks. 
I was in Busan more, but it was for a wedding, so I didn't get to see a whole lot.  I found one music store there and all they sold were Top 40 Korean cds.  I gave them some of my bands' cds and they were crazy excited because they were in English.

My wife and I have just planted green bush beans, ying-yang beans, homesteader beans, heirloom tomatoes, peas, carrots, corn, chard, cuccumbers, summer squash and winter squash.  Plus some potatoes.  And herbs, of course.   In the next few days we'll be doing zucchinis, pumpkins and sunflowers.
This is our 3rd year of gardening.  We've been expanding our garden every year since we moved here.

When I ordered the ALMIGHTY DEFENDERS lp from Vice they sent it to me in large bubble envelope.  That's it, that's all.  
It came undamaged, but took for-fucking-ever to arrive.

The Ted Danson Machine.  I believe they eventually changed their name to Operation: Cliff Clavin.

On Monday at Treehouse Records in Minneapolis I picked up the TROUBLE IN MIND comp. 7".  That was my big find.  I wanted to find one of those FUCKED UP 7"s, but no luck.

Hated CHEAPOS (couldn't find anything, and extremely poor trade-in prices AGAIN).  Didn't make it to Extreme Noise.  Roadrunner is half the size it used to be and didn't seem to have anything.
Treehouse was awesome as was Electric Fetus in Duluth. 

Thank goodness I got to drink Summit every night.

Cheapos on Lake will definitely be hit.  As will Extreme Noise.  Also planning on checking out Treehouse and Roadrunner.

Thanks for the link. 

It looks like I'll be doing some record shopping and walking around downtown Monday night.
