I heard about the whirlyball contest with the Melvins, no doubt will be as good a read as their Mogwai one was. However, they should put out their next issue already! It's been years now. They'll always have a place in my heart though for selling me possibly the rarest Jason Molina record out there (the blue copy I have is supposedly 1 of 5! Then I went and got it signed by Jason).

Anyway, bring on the next issue instead of putting on comedy shows.

The Chunklet/Buddyhead free show at SXSW this year was the best thing I saw. Great bands, 2 stages, no waiting, and Henry running around in his Chunklet jumpsuit.
