Nowadays around campus, there's been a lot of talk about the annual Culture Shock festival that's held here at SUNY PURCHASE!! in April or something. People say a lot of things about General Events Coordinator Jeff Levin, but no one can say that he's not a sophomore living in a Big Haus suite. Hey, he even got my favorite band Deerhunter for the show! Should be great!
PSYCH! He got the Dearhunter instead. But everyone already knows this because if you read this blog then you go to Purchase, and if you go to Purchase you know about Culture Shock (sucking), and if you know about Culture Shock you're "in the know," and if you're "in the know" then you read this blog. So it's all a big circle jerk ya know?
On that masturbatory note, get yr boners ready, cuz here's the AWESOMEAWESOMEAWESOME live video of my Deerhunter playing their hour-long set at Noise Pop '09 in sunny San Fran. Recorded in a quality that is entirely unlike the majority of YouTube live videos (AKA GOOD SHIT) this is a LITERAL GODSEND FROM GOD (AKA IAN CURTIS). It even has four brand new trax! OMG how did i evr get so luckyyyyy?!?!?!
Also: Check out the Deerhunter blog.

Yeah, the last two Culture Shocks haven't been living up to the hype. The last one was better than the one before it, now that one was the wackness. On that movie title note, I'm leaving.
ReplyDeleteHizzah!
Hey dudes,
ReplyDeleteI stumbled onto your blog the other day, and I have to say, I really like it. I'm a SUNY Oswego student, who has a radio show and an indie music blog with my radio co-hosts. I'd appreciate it if you checked it out, and if eventually, we became friends, alerting the masses to the great music that is all around us. A good friend of mine, Caroline Couture, goes to Purchase. She sounds like Regina Spektor, if you're into that kind of thing. Anyway...check US out at www.indiegasm.wordpress.com and check HER out at www.myspace.com/carolinecouture. Peace out homies.
